PUBLISH-QUEUE RECHECK LEDGER

Status: original blank checklist; contains no release decision or publication evidence.
Author disclosure: Created by Alfred.
Purpose: bind one release candidate to scoped evidence, invalidation triggers,
executable holds, and the checks required before its next state transition.

Do not prefill a successful state. Empty evidence is missing evidence, not a pass.
Duplicate the dependency, hold, and recheck blocks when more than one applies.

======================================================================
A. CANDIDATE IDENTITY
======================================================================

candidate ID:
content revision, immutable revision, or manifest digest:
identity method used:
files and release surfaces covered:
files and release surfaces explicitly excluded:
intended first-party destination:
intended destination surface or route:

  [ ] queued for an authorized destination
  [ ] uploaded or processing
  [ ] publicly verified
  [ ] withdrawn or superseded

Rule: readiness, upload acceptance, processing, and public verification are
separate states. A public URL remains empty until independently verified.

recheck required after that change:
current freshness result: CURRENT / STALE / BLOCKED / NOT TESTED

SOURCE CLOCK
last source check:
claim-specific freshness rule:
external change that makes the source evidence stale:
recheck required after that change:
current freshness result: CURRENT / STALE / BLOCKED / NOT TESTED

RIGHTS CLOCK
last exact-asset rights check:
license, permission, attribution, or asset change that reopens review:
recheck required after that change:
current freshness result: CURRENT / STALE / BLOCKED / NOT TESTED

DESTINATION CLOCK
last exact-destination check:
rendering, policy, visibility, account, or surface change that reopens review:
recheck required immediately before action:
current freshness result: CURRENT / STALE / BLOCKED / NOT TESTED

PUBLICATION CLOCK
last logged-out public observation:
expected candidate identity and public route:
change or elapsed period that requires a fresh observation:
current freshness result: CURRENT / STALE / BLOCKED / NOT TESTED

Rule: do not replace the five clocks with one optimistic approval expiry.
Refresh only the evidence actually observed.

======================================================================
D. INVALIDATION MAP
======================================================================

TRIGGER
trigger ID:
observable change:
  [ ] body, title, description, tags, or on-screen text
  [ ] captions, transcript, script, audio, image, video, or preview
  [ ] source, quoted language, factual claim, or access date
  [ ] license, attribution, provenance record, or asset digest
  [ ] disclosure, synthetic-media label, or publication-state label
  [ ] canonical route, redirect, feed, sitemap, or linked download
  [ ] destination processing, crop, visibility, policy, or account state
  [ ] validator revision or discovered validator defect
  [ ] privacy-sensitive field, screenshot, metadata, or attachment
  [ ] schedule for explicitly time-sensitive content
  [ ] prerequisite candidate or dependency evidence
  [ ] other:
affected review lanes:
reviews that do not need to reopen, with reason:
new candidate identity required:
state transition required:
owner or permitted process:

Rule: map each trigger to affected evidence. Do not silently keep approval
attached to changed bytes, and do not repeat unrelated review without cause.

======================================================================
E. DEPENDENCY EDGE
======================================================================

dependent candidate ID and exact revision:
prerequisite candidate ID and exact revision:
required evidence from prerequisite:
acceptable result:
results that are explicitly insufficient:
where authoritative prerequisite state is recorded:
what happens if the prerequisite changes:
dependency result: SATISFIED / UNSATISFIED / BLOCKED / NOT TESTED
evidence:

Rule: queue order and copied status prose do not establish a dependency pass.

======================================================================
F. EXECUTABLE HOLD
======================================================================

hold ID:
missing evidence or unmet prerequisite:
why the current state cannot advance:
actor, session, or process allowed to resolve it:
exact next action permitted:
stop conditions:
  [ ] password or authentication gate
  [ ] CAPTCHA, passkey, biometric, or one-time code
  [ ] identity check
  [ ] payment or spending decision
  [ ] legal acceptance or unfamiliar sensitive consent
  [ ] destination, account, visibility, or authority uncertainty
  [ ] privacy, rights, claim, or rendering uncertainty
  [ ] other:
observable pass evidence:
observable fail evidence:
reviews reopened on pass:
reviews reopened on fail:
state transition allowed after pass:
state preserved after fail or uncertainty:
hold result: OPEN / RESOLVED / BLOCKED
hold evidence:

Rule: a scheduled time does not override an open hold or stop condition.

======================================================================
G. THREE-MOMENT RECHECK
======================================================================

1. QUEUE ENTRY
reviewed at:
exact candidate frozen:
all promised surfaces covered:
claim, source, rights, privacy, disclosure, media, and validation evidence scoped:
holds and dependency edges recorded:
invalidation triggers recorded:
queue-entry result: PASS / FAIL / BLOCKED / NOT TESTED
evidence and limits:

Queue entry means eligible to wait under recorded conditions, not safe forever.

2. IMMEDIATELY BEFORE DESTINATION ACTION
reviewed at:
candidate digest still matches:
relevant freshness clocks rechecked:
all holds resolved or preserved:
complete destination copy and media set inspected together:
authorized first-party destination confirmed:
intended visibility confirmed:
user-presence and sensitive-gate check:
pre-action result: PASS / FAIL / BLOCKED / NOT TESTED
evidence and limits:

Do not perform the destination action unless every required lane passes.

3. AFTER DESTINATION PROCESSING OR PUBLICATION
reviewed at:
processed text, media, captions, links, crop, and disclosure checked:
visibility checked independently without privileged session state:
exact served candidate checked:
redirects and discovery surfaces checked:
referenced assets checked:
second privacy and claim scan completed:
public URL:
post-action result: PASS / FAIL / BLOCKED / NOT TESTED
evidence and limits:

Only a successful independent public observation may support publicly verified.
An upload response, dashboard state, local build, commit, or planned URL may not.

======================================================================
H. FINAL DECISION
======================================================================

exact candidate ID and revision:
decision time (timestamp + timezone):
current truthful state:
next allowed action:
known blockers:
rechecks required before that action:
latest safe release time, if any:
public URL: leave empty until independently verified
public verification time:
public verification evidence:
withdrawal or supersession evidence:
decision scope and limits:

DECISION: PASS / FAIL / BLOCKED / NOT TESTED

A PASS applies only to the declared state transition and evidence scope. It does
not prove accuracy, legality, accessibility, platform acceptance, audience
response, customer outcome, or permanent availability.

======================================================================
I. COMPACT AUDIT
======================================================================

[ ] Exact immutable candidate or complete manifest is identified.
[ ] Every public surface contributing to the promise is covered.
[ ] Draft, validated, held, queued, uploaded, and public states are distinct.
[ ] Claim, source, rights, privacy, disclosure, media, and validation evidence is scoped.
[ ] Candidate, source, rights, destination, and publication clocks are separate.
[ ] Each invalidation trigger maps to affected review lanes.
[ ] Every hold names missing evidence and one permitted next action.
[ ] Stop conditions preserve authentication, identity, payment, and consent boundaries.
[ ] Dependency edges point to exact candidates and acceptable evidence.
[ ] Proposed routes are not represented as verified public URLs.
[ ] Destination rendering and processing are reviewed only after they exist.
[ ] Logged-out remote verification is required before publicly verified.
[ ] A failed or uncertain required lane preserves the hold.
[ ] Promotion and handoff copy agrees with the authoritative state record.

Overall audit result: PASS / FAIL / BLOCKED / NOT TESTED
