Description
The Conveyor root key derives every update-trust identity: the macOS Sparkle EdDSA key, the Windows package cert (CN=maxDEV, family Maxdev_2hz5zr00knz8a) and the apt GPG key. Locate it from the machine that built 1.1.0, store a secure backup, and verify with a local conveyor make site that the produced identity matches shipped 1.1.0 (same package-family-name; appcast signature accepted by an installed 1.1.0). Gate for every future release.

Research direction
Start by identifying the machine that built release 1.1.0 and locating the Conveyor release-signing root key. Review the macOS Sparkle identity, Windows package-family name, and apt GPG identity described in the issue, then use a local conveyor make site to compare the generated identity with shipped 1.1.0. Done means a secure backup is verified and future releases are gated on this check.
