ECC v2.0.0-rc.1 Publication Evidence - 2026-05-18

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

Source Commit

Field	Evidence
Upstream main	04d4d81938b20ac2bac1f0025145ab77d6a59f5f
Git remote	https://github.com/affaan-m/everything-claude-code.git
Evidence scope	Current main after PR #1970 workflow-security validator bypass fixes, PR #1971 metrics bridge cost-reporting fixes, PR #1972 uncloud skill merge, PR #1973 stale script cleanup, issue #1974 cost-reporting verification/closure, PR #1976 OpenAI/AstraFlow provider response guards, catalog/operator dashboard refresh, ECC-Tools Wrangler OAuth billing readback mirror, Mini Shai-Hulud/TanStack protection recheck, defensive-deny IOC scanner hardening, current-head CI/security scan, work-items sync, and Linear progress sync
Local status caveat	git status --short --branch showed ## main...origin/main plus unrelated untracked docs/drafts/; generated evidence files are committed after the source snapshot they describe

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

Queue And Discussion State

Surface	Command	Result
Trunk PRs	gh pr list --limit 100 --json number,title,state,author,updatedAt,url	0 open PRs
Trunk issues	gh issue list --limit 100 --json number,title,state,updatedAt,url,labels	0 open issues
Discussion audit	npm run discussion:audit -- --json	Ready; 58 sampled discussions in affaan-m/everything-claude-code, 0 needing maintainer touch, 0 answerable discussions missing accepted answer, and 0 fetch errors
Platform audit	node scripts/platform-audit.js --json --allow-untracked docs/drafts/	Ready; tracked repos report 0 open PRs, 0 open issues, 0 discussion maintainer-touch gaps, 0 answerable Q&A missing accepted answers, and 0 blocking dirty files
Work-items sync	node scripts/work-items.js sync-github --repo <tracked-repo> for five tracked repos; node scripts/status.js --json; node scripts/work-items.js list --json	All five tracked repos synced with 0 open PRs/issues and no changed work items; local status reports 0 open, 0 blocked, and 0 closed work items
Operator dashboard	node scripts/operator-readiness-dashboard.js --markdown --allow-untracked docs/drafts/ --write docs/releases/2.0.0-rc.1/operator-readiness-dashboard-2026-05-18.md	Generated current dashboard for fb4b0c8dced77b8097b98b08c9091e554b6878a5; dashboard ready true, publication ready false because release, npm, plugin, billing, and announcement gates are approval-gated; ECC Tools target-account billing readback is now the documented native-payments gate

Tracked repositories in the platform audit and work-items sync were:

• affaan-m/everything-claude-code
• affaan-m/agentshield
• affaan-m/JARVIS
• ECC-Tools/ECC-Tools
• ECC-Tools/ECC-website

Merge And Triage Batch

Item	Result
PR #1970	Merged workflow-security validator fixes for quoted write-all and refs/pull/* checkout bypasses; main includes e06d0382 and 7bb31720 from that slice
PR #1971	Merged metrics bridge cost-reporting fixes, full costs-file scan behavior, and persistent warning de-duplication across hook subprocesses; main includes commits through 9b1d8918
PR #1972	Merged skills/uncloud/SKILL.md with activation structure and uncloud command references; main includes 8b6aed0, 2e5f30f, and caee7cf
PR #1973	Merged stale skills/strategic-compact/suggest-compact.sh removal after confirming the active hook is scripts/hooks/suggest-compact.js; remote main includes 812d4d06
Issue #1974	Closed after verifying current origin/main already reads the latest cumulative metrics bridge cost row and focused cost/metrics tests pass
Catalog/operator refresh	Pushed 81fca2ce to refresh generated catalog count, URL ledger, and operator dashboard state after #1973/#1974
PR #1976	Merged provider response hardening for OpenAI-compatible and AstraFlow providers; main includes eb0d8939 follow-up guards for empty/filtered provider choices, missing OpenAI response.usage, shared filtered-response error text, and credential-less provider construction validation
Provider guard validation	uv run --extra dev pytest -q tests/test_provider_tools.py tests/test_astraflow_provider.py, uv run --extra dev pytest -q, node tests/run-all.js, and git diff --check passed before merging #1976 follow-up into main: 11 provider-focused Python tests, 76 full Python tests, 2509 Node tests, and clean whitespace checks
Defensive-deny IOC scanner hardening	Pushed 04d4d819 so explicit Claude permissions.deny IOC entries are treated as defensive controls while the same IOC still fails in hooks, tasks, scripts, locks, and payload files; local npm test passed 2511/2511 and current-head CI 26017368895 passed 37/37
Clean-worktree preview-pack smoke	Detached worktree at 742bc58d9748184dc6fd54ef42ffcf165c9d1360; node scripts/preview-pack-smoke.js --root <worktree> --format json passed 5/5 with digest 59bbf2630a44; required artifacts, final verification commands, Hermes public sanitization boundary, and approval-gated publication blockers were all preserved
Public queues	Rechecked after the merge and issue-closure batch; 0 PRs, 0 issues, and 0 discussion gaps remain across tracked repos

Linear Progress Sync

Surface	Evidence
ITO-57 issue comments	0b9931b9-1556-4ebc-a70c-f3635557625d records May 18 queue counts, #1970/#1971/#1972/#1976 merge evidence, supply-chain verification, current-head CI URL, deferred gates, and next slices; reply 6fa15367-d994-4e53-ade3-9462477e1100 records the expanded TanStack/Mini Shai-Hulud recheck, defensive-deny scanner fix, current-head CI 26017368895, and post-push platform audit
ECC platform project comment	e32e5b7a-287b-4bf4-9ed7-314389a157e1 records the same current public queue, security, #1976, and remaining-gate state at the project level
Project status update caveat	Linear returned "Project status updates are not enabled for this workspace"; project comment was used as the supported status surface

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 for rc.1, but official Plugin Directory publishing remains blocked on OpenAI's self-serve publishing surface.
• ECC Tools billing/native-payments copy remains blocked until a Marketplace Pro purchase/webhook path writes ready production billing-state:* provenance for the target Marketplace test account, then npm run billing:kv-readback -- --account <github-login> --require-ready with working Cloudflare API auth or repaired Wrangler OAuth, followed by npm run billing:announcement-gate -- --account <github-login>, return announcement-ready gates. The latest API-authenticated aggregate readback from the ECC vault Cloudflare credential found 253 account-billing:* records, 253 billing-state:* records, 0 Marketplace Pro states, 0 ready-like Marketplace Pro states, and 0 parse failures; local Wrangler OAuth currently fails with Cloudflare authentication error 10000. ECC-Tools commit 632e059 adds the follow-up target-account readback mode, redacts the account login and raw KV key names, and requires both target key families before --require-ready can pass. Linear ITO-61 now tracks the exact target-account acceptance criteria.
• Release notes, X, LinkedIn, GitHub release, and longform copy still need final live URLs after release/package/plugin URLs exist.
• The local checkout still has unrelated untracked docs/drafts/, so a strict clean-checkout release pass remains required before real publication.

Result

The tracked public PR queue, issue queue, discussion queue, local work-items bridge, and Mini Shai-Hulud/TanStack protection loop are current on May 18, 2026 for current main through aa634df9, with follow-up ECC Tools billing-gate hardening in 632e059. This improves publication readiness but does not replace the approval-gated release, package, plugin, billing, and announcement steps in publication-readiness.md.
