-- Adopt the modern `build` frontend (`python -m build`).
-- Ensure `pyproject.toml` + package data produces high-quality sdists and wheels.
-- Add or improve `MANIFEST.in` / `pyproject.toml` configuration so that necessary files (README, LICENSE, etc.) are included.
-- Verify that the resulting packages can be installed in a fresh environment and provide a working `cya` command.
+**Done.**
 
-**Acceptance criteria**:
-- `python -m build` produces a clean sdist and wheel.
-- The wheel installs correctly and `cya --version` works in an isolated environment.
+- Created `MANIFEST.in` for proper sdist inclusion.
+- Improved `pyproject.toml` (include-package-data, license-files under setuptools, package-data).
+- `python -m build` successfully produces clean sdist + wheel.
+- Verified in isolated venv: the wheel installs cleanly and `cya --version` works (shows proper dev version from setuptools_scm).
+
+**Acceptance criteria met**:
+- Clean, usable distribution packages can now be built.
+- They install and run correctly in fresh environments.
