The only path from an intake submission to the storefront. It performs what mark-available performs — the status, and clearing the sale and reservation fields — rather than calling that route, because the copy and the publish have to be one transaction: an item published carrying the previous draft's name would be worse than one not published at all.
The price rule is applied here rather than trusted from the client. A changed number becomes the admin's; an unchanged one keeps whatever it was, so publishing without touching the field records that nobody chose it. The row is locked for the transaction so two admins publishing the same submission cannot interleave one's price decision with another's name.
Whole cents only. A fractional value would round somewhere nobody is looking and put the item on sale at a price no one entered.

Columns are spelled out rather than selected with a wildcard, so a column added to item_drafts later does not silently start reaching the browser. That matters most for the join to upload_links, which carries the token digest — only the label is taken, and a test asserts the digest never appears in a response.
Discarded rows are excluded by default rather than deleted. Discard has to be recoverable because it is one click away in what amounts to an inbox, but a discarded row left in the default view would compete for attention with work that still needs doing.
The gate goes on the mount in app.ts rather than inside the router, matching every other admin router. Since ADMIN_GATE_SECRET is unset for integration runs the gate is disabled there, so the test that asserts the mount is actually gated sets the secret for its own duration — leaving requireAdminGate off a new mount is otherwise a silent hole.
