Publish and share

Release publicly, keep eligible work private, and submit a version for marketplace review.

Use Publish version from the existing builder. One review dialog covers Community, Marketplace review, or private access where the account permits it, plus runtime, license, preview and redistribution consent. Marketplace selection publishes a Community release and requests review; it does not grant curated status. If review submission fails, the successful Community release is kept and can be submitted again.

The same publishing panel controls public cover media, full description, category, tags, use cases and version notes. These change presentation only. The released title, short description, typed contracts, source and license remain tied to the immutable package version.

My builds includes original and forked drafts, imports, installed versions, every own release and private releases. A version can be marked deprecated or delisted, with a public notice and an optional replacement version. It stops appearing in discovery and becomes ineligible for indexing; direct version URLs, source downloads and existing pinned projects remain available unless a separate security revocation applies.

Community publication does not automatically create a curated listing. Set the source license in manifest.license (or top-level license for a project type), save/test/sync, and publish an immutable Community version. Submit that released version from Block Developer and track the decision in My builds. Supported SPDX identifiers for the initial review flow are exported as MARKETPLACE_LICENSES and listed in api-index.json; custom/unknown licensing needs a later review workflow. Changing a published version's license requires a new immutable version.

The existing protected admin console inspects exact package source, permissions, licensing and attribution, then reruns fixtures before approval. Type approval also requires available host adapters. Review decisions use revision preconditions and an audit journal. Approved listings may be featured; publisher withdrawal and admin rejection remove promotion without deleting the Community release or installed project pins. Marketplace listings are free and creators cannot charge for them. Reputation scoring and package signing are separate future work.

Public pages

Blocks, Project Types, and creators have their own page URLs. Public pages link to related workflows, versions, and source ancestry. Project references remain filtered by project access. Never place an email address, credential, or private fixture in public package metadata.
