docs: brand settings follow today's ship (Program ID, two payment cards, link parameter, attribution window)

[sonpiaz]

What

Brand-side docs follow what shipped to prod on 2026-10-16 (dashboard on main, verified in the prod JS chunks: "Program ID", "Attribution window").

• brand/settings.mdx: Business shows Program ID (read-only, Copy); Tracking has the Partner link parameter; Payments is two cards; Refer a brand includes Invite via email and the referred brands.
• brand/quickstart/setup-program.mdx:
  • Business table gains Program ID.
  • Tracking: Connect sheet ends with a prompt; npm provider file is app/affitor-provider.tsx; tracker states and the Continue rule follow today's step; new Partner link parameter paragraph.
  • Payments: two cards (Stripe, Server API) with their states, no method to choose, owner-only Stripe text, the both-connected warning; old screenshot removed (it showed the method choice; a new shot is follow-up media).
  • Go live: "either card" instead of "the method you chose"; PageMeta prerequisite says connecting Stripe needs the owner.
• Program ID location (Settings → Program settings → Business): glossary, 8 integration pages, tracking quickstart.
• Attribution window: errors.mdx names the setting attribution_window_days (shown as Attribution window); inviting-partners says attribution window.
• ?via= next to ?aff=: attribution (cookie section + scenario table), click-tracking, tracking-overview, glossary, public/docs/skill.md.

Sources (affiliate-dashboard origin/main 0b3d39dd, affiliate-cms origin/main 0f7bbaa0)

• Program ID: dash#711 src/components/AffiliateManagement/Advertiser/Setup/BusinessStep.tsx:234-252 (label, help "Used by the tracking script, the API and AI agents.", Copy, read-only).
• Payments: dash#680 Setup/PaymentsStep.tsx:51-80 (two cards, done when either), :223-224 heading + "Connect Stripe, your server, or both.", :233 pills, :248 Connect/Finish in Stripe, :255 "Only the program owner can connect Stripe.", :266 Received/No sale yet, :274,277 Send a test sale/Check again, :306 both warning, :325 pipeline check text; Skip for now in setup only.
• Tracking: dash#691 Setup/TrackingStep.tsx:143 tracked = first click or gate, :153-165 states, :231-234 Check now hidden after first click, :259-267 Continue/Skip; Mcp/ConnectSheet.tsx:67-74,170 prompt; src/lib/trackerSnippets.ts:49-60 app/affitor-provider.tsx.
• Partner link parameter: dash#674 Setup/LinkParamField.tsx:92-111; CMS src/utils/partner-link.ts:14-28 (LINK_PARAM_VIA_SINCE = 2026-10-16T00:00:00Z, older programs locked to aff); tracker public/js/affitor-tracker.js:126-133 (aff, else via). The npm SDK 2.1.3 loads the same hosted tracker (dist/index.js references affitor-tracker.js).
• Attribution window: dash#712; CMS src/api/affiliate-commission/services/attribution-window.ts:21,36-40 (attribution_window_days, default 60); click response cookie_window_days carries the effective value (affiliate-tracking/controllers/v1-tracking.ts:597-611).

Not in this PR (reported to p470)

• CLI --cookie-duration writes only cookie_window_days, which tracking never reads (CMS src/api/cli/services/cli.ts:78): docs brand/cli/* still say default 90. Product decision first.
• Team roles (Owner/Admin/Member/Viewer) not documented yet.

No terms or money wording changes. Media: setup-payments.png no longer referenced; new shot to be briefed.
