ECC v2.0.0-rc.1 Publication Evidence - 2026-05-19

This is release-readiness evidence only. It does not create a GitHub release, npm publication, plugin tag, marketplace submission, billing announcement, or social announcement.

Local status caveat	git status --short --branch was clean after pulling origin/main; generated evidence files are committed after the source snapshot they describe

The release operator must repeat all publish-facing checks from the exact final release commit with a strictly clean checkout before publishing.

Merge Batch

Item	Result
PR #1990	Merged GitHub integration harness-audit scoring and conflict salvage from the earlier unsafe PR lane
PR #1991	Merged canonical ECC release identity gate across README, plugin/package metadata, OpenCode surfaces, Marketplace metadata, audit defaults, quickstart, release URL ledger, naming/publication matrix, and release tests
PR #1992	Merged the release video-suite gate, production manifest, validator, package file surface, preview-pack smoke wiring, release-surface tests, and compact CI JSON output
PR #1993	Merged the partner, sponsor, consulting, conference, podcast, GitHub Discussion, and video CTA pack for the hypergrowth outbound lane
PR #1994	Merged the May 19 publication-evidence refresh, platform-audit evidence gate, preview-pack smoke evidence gate, and URL/readiness/roadmap references
PR #1995	Merged the May 19 operator dashboard refresh with the $1,728/mo MRR baseline, $10,000/mo target, and release/video/outbound top actions
PR #1996	Merged the primary launch render self-eval gate for duration, size, resolution, video stream, and audio stream checks
PR #1997	Merged the publish-candidate gate for the primary launch MP4/captions plus five short clips in wide and vertical formats
PR #1998	Merged the release video visual QA gate for publish candidates and black-frame segment detection
PR #1999	Merged the operator dashboard refresh that moved the release video suite to current once publish-candidate evidence was recorded
PR #2000	Merged the suite-count evidence refresh so the platform audit rejects stale local-suite totals
PR #2001	Merged the final human decision sheet for release, package, plugin, video, billing, social, and outbound approvals; GitHub Actions run 26102500291 completed successfully
PR #2002	Merged the owner-approval dashboard refresh so the operator dashboard fails closed when the final decision sheet is missing or incomplete; CI passed before merge
PR #2004	Merged the May 19 Linear readiness evidence sync after PR #2002, including roadmap, dashboard, preview-pack manifest, publication evidence, operator dashboard generator, and release-surface test updates
PR #2005	Merged the post-PR #2004 evidence refresh, keeping the May 19 readiness ledger, dashboard, roadmap, and release-surface references current on main
PR #2008	Merged the release supply-chain evidence gate fix so platform-audit readiness keeps matching current publication evidence
PR #2006	Merged the claude-project install target for per-project Claude Code adapter support, then fixed the manifest schema enum on top of the feature branch before merge
PR #2009	Merged the continuous-learning project registry hygiene fix: non-git hook payloads stay global, no-remote linked worktrees migrate to the main worktree project ID, and instinct-cli.py projects delete, merge, and gc provide operator maintenance commands
PR #2011	Merged the GateGuard read-only git introspection tokenizer fix so quoted git show pathspecs with spaces are preserved while quoted shell separators stay outside the bypass
PR #2013	Merged the deterministic release:approval-gate so final publication, package, plugin, video, billing, social, and outbound actions remain blocked until owner decisions and live URL readbacks are complete

Product And Positioning Evidence

Surface	Evidence
Canonical repo identity	Public URLs and release docs now use https://github.com/affaan-m/ECC where public links are needed
Release claim	Release notes and launch collateral frame ECC as the harness-native operator system for agentic work, not a Claude-only config pack
Video proof	video-suite-production.md gates the local rough render, timeline, captions, source inventory, publish-candidate clip set, self-eval, black-frame QA, and no-private-path publication rules
Growth proof	partner-sponsor-talks-pack.md provides approval-gated copy for sponsors, partners, consulting, talks, podcasts, GitHub Discussion, and video CTAs
Owner approval proof	owner-approval-packet-2026-05-19.md centralizes release, package, plugin, video, billing, social, and outbound decision gates
Business baseline	Hypergrowth command center and partner pack use $1,728/mo current MRR, $10,000/mo target MRR, and $8,272/mo gap
Operator dashboard	operator-readiness-dashboard-2026-05-19.md pulls the growth baseline into the same queue, publication, video, outbound, AgentShield, ECC Tools, Linear, and supply-chain control surface
Linear progress proof	Linear project document ecc-may-19-post-pr-2002-sync-64cef8f668e0 mirrors the post-PR #2002 state and records active lanes for launch materials, AgentShield, ECC Tools deep analysis, observability, and final release publication; Linear document ecc-may-19-late-queue-zero-and-release-gate-sync-1c26f65e6b3f adds the PR #2013 approval gate, ECC-Tools #79 redaction hardening, and JARVIS #15/#16 queue/deploy repair evidence

Current Publication Blockers

• GitHub prerelease v2.0.0-rc.1 is still not created in this pass.
• npm ecc-universal@2.0.0-rc.1 is still not published to the next dist-tag.
• Claude plugin tag and marketplace propagation remain approval-gated.
• Codex repo-marketplace distribution is verified by prior evidence, but official Plugin Directory publishing remains blocked on OpenAI submission or listing evidence.
• ECC Tools billing/native-payments copy remains blocked until a Marketplace Pro purchase/webhook path writes ready production billing state for a target Marketplace test account and the billing announcement gate passes.
• Release notes, X, LinkedIn, GitHub release, GitHub Discussion, longform copy, sponsor outreach, partner outreach, consulting copy, conference pitches, and podcast pitches still need final live URLs plus human approval before posting or sending.
• Discord/community links still need a real invite or bot/guild credential path before public docs should route users there.

Result

The tracked public PR queue, issue queue, discussion queue, canonical ECC identity, release video suite, preview pack, growth outreach packet, per-project Claude Code adapter surface, continuous-learning project registry hygiene, GateGuard quoted git introspection fix, deterministic release approval gate, ECC-Tools billing-announcement redaction hardening, and JARVIS security/deploy queue repairs are current on May 19, 2026 for main through 9819626459a662773be7d0b1c18d82c1316b8c36. The remaining video work is owner approval, upload, and public URL attachment, not render or QA production.

This improves publication readiness but does not replace the approval-gated release, package, plugin, billing, Discord, and announcement steps in publication-readiness.md.
