+# ECC v2.0.0-rc.1 Owner Approval Packet
+
+Snapshot date: 2026-05-19.
+
+This packet is the final human decision sheet for the rc.1 public launch. It
+does not publish anything by itself. Use it to approve, defer, or block each
+release action after the final evidence commands are rerun from the intended
+release commit.
+
+Source commit for the clean evidence baseline this packet extends:
+`e7a7b2aaa33c0657cad9db3fa2ced0e636cd0f8c`.
+
+## Current Evidence
+
+| Evidence | Current recorded state | Repeat before approval |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Platform audit | ready true, 0 open PRs, 0 open issues, 0 discussion gaps, 0 dirty files | yes |
+| Preview pack smoke | ready true, digest `790430aef4a8`, 5/5 checks | yes |
+| Video suite | ready true, 15/15 source assets, 13/13 suite artifacts, 12/12 publish candidates | yes |
+| Release surface tests | 26/26 passed after this packet was added | yes |
+| Full local suite | 2548/2548 passed after this packet was added | yes |
+| GitHub CI | PR #1998, PR #1999, and PR #2000 merged after green required checks | verify current head |
+
+## Decision Register
+
+| Decision | Approve / defer / block | Evidence required first | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| GitHub prerelease | defer | final clean branch, URL ledger, release notes, attached video or video link | Approve only after final release notes contain live package/plugin/video URLs or explicitly marked blocked URLs. |
+| npm `next` publish | defer | `npm pack --dry-run`, `npm publish --tag next --dry-run`, registry dist-tag readback plan | Keep `ecc-universal@2.0.0-rc.1` on `next`; do not move `latest` during rc.1. |
+| Claude plugin tag | defer | `claude plugin validate .claude-plugin/plugin.json`, `claude plugin tag .claude-plugin --dry-run` | Create and push the real tag only after release approval. |
+| Codex repo marketplace | defer | temp-home marketplace add smoke and current official Plugin Directory status | Claim repo-marketplace distribution only; do not claim official Plugin Directory listing without listing evidence. |
+| ECC Tools billing language | defer | live readiness readback for the target account and billing/product state | Do not announce native payments or Marketplace-managed Pro until the gate is live. |
+| Video upload | defer | owner selects primary launch cut plus short clips, self-eval stays clean | Upload only approved cuts; keep editable timeline/project output preserved. |
+| X, LinkedIn, GitHub Discussion, longform | defer | live release, npm, plugin, video, and billing URL ledger updates | Personal-account posts and outbound copy need explicit approval. |
+| Sponsor, partner, consulting, conference, podcast outreach | defer | final public URLs plus owner-approved outbound copy | Do not send drafts until the owner approves the exact batch. |
+
+## Final URL Fill-In
+
+Update these surfaces after the approved publication actions finish:
+
+| Surface | Final value source | Update targets |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| GitHub prerelease URL | `gh release view v2.0.0-rc.1 --repo affaan-m/ECC --json url` | release notes, URL ledger, social copy |
+| npm rc package URL | `npm view ecc-universal@2.0.0-rc.1 version dist-tags --json` | URL ledger, quickstart, release notes |
+| Claude plugin tag URL | pushed `ecc--v2.0.0-rc.1` tag or marketplace readback | URL ledger, plugin docs, release notes |
+| Codex repo-marketplace evidence | temp-home `codex plugin marketplace add <local-checkout>` readback | URL ledger, publication readiness |
+| Primary launch video URL | uploaded owner-approved primary launch video | GitHub release, X, LinkedIn, longform |
+| Short clip URLs | uploaded approved clips | X thread, LinkedIn, partner/sponsor/talk pack |
+| ECC Tools billing/readiness URL | live readiness readback or explicit blocked status | sponsor copy, Pro copy, release notes |
+
+## Final Evidence Commands
+
+Run these from the exact release commit before approving publication:
+
+```bash
+git status --short --branch
+node scripts/platform-audit.js --json
+npm run preview-pack:smoke -- --format json
+npm run release:video-suite -- --format json
+npm run harness:adapters -- --check
+npm run harness:audit -- --format json
+npm run observability:ready
+npm run security:ioc-scan
+npm audit --audit-level=moderate
+npm audit signatures
+node tests/docs/ecc2-release-surface.test.js
+node tests/run-all.js
+cd ecc2 && cargo test
+```
+
+## Approval Text
+
+Use short, explicit approvals. Example:
+
+```text
+Approved for rc.1 GitHub prerelease, npm next publish, Claude plugin tag, and
+release announcement after the final evidence commands pass from commit <sha>.
+Video uploads approved for <primary-video> and <shorts-list>.
+Outbound sponsor, partner, consulting, conference, and podcast messages remain
+blocked until I approve the exact batch.
+```
+
+## Do Not Approve If
+
+- The final branch is dirty or no longer matches the intended release commit.
+- Any required evidence command fails or is skipped without a written deferral.
+- The release copy claims live billing, plugin marketplace propagation, npm
+  `next`, or official Codex Plugin Directory listing before readback exists.
+- Announcement copy contains stale URLs, private paths, or unresolved live-link
+  decisions.
+- The selected video cut has black frames, missing audio, stale URLs, weak
+  product proof, or unreviewed captions.
+- The outbound batch has not been reviewed exactly as it will be sent.
+
+No outbound email, personal-account post, package publish, plugin tag, or billing announcement is authorized by this packet alone.
