# Conda-Forge Packaging Draft

The public Monata package repository should not carry an active `packaging/`
directory until a conda-forge submission is actually being prepared.

Current packaging ownership is split:

- Public Python packaging lives in `src/monata/pyproject.toml`.
- Internal conda packaging lives in the outer workspace recipe
  `recipes/monata/recipe.yaml`.
- Public conda-forge packaging should be prepared in a
  `conda-forge/staged-recipes` pull request after the PyPI release exists.

Start from the current staged-recipes template and the published PyPI source
distribution hash. Until then, keeping conda-forge recipe drafts out of the
package repository avoids shipping a placeholder `sha256` and makes the GitHub
upload surface clearer.
