⚠️ As a User, I want to create a Space for the first time
Behavior from source: A user enters Create Site from marketing, an avatar menu or their signed-in profile; names the space, chooses privacy, optionally adds branding, and configures global appearance. Publishing and the associated account/domain flow are delayed until a meaningful edit and live-canvas preview. Collaborator access is delegated to a separate story. First-time onboarding is explicitly a concept needing review and iteration.

Source acceptance and behavior
Create Site is reachable from the Hypermedia marketing site, from any site’s avatar menu whether signed in or not, and from My Profile for signed-in users.
The user names the space and chooses Public or Private; the source mentions a maximum name length but supplies no numeric value.
Cover, logo and favicon are optional and can be skipped until later in Space Settings; without a logo show the space name in the header logo area, and omit absent cover/favicon.
Creation includes global Navigation & Appearance options such as showing publication tabs/date, applied consistently across documents; the final per-document override policy requires reconciliation with the linked review/meeting.
Publish and its associated account-creation prompt occur only after at least one meaningful edit (title, description or content block) and live-canvas preview.
Clicking Publish proceeds to the linked account/domain flow; collaborator invitations use the linked space-access story.
