ClearGuide Public Release Checklist

Before First Public Push

• Review the generated LICENSE, COMMERCIAL_LICENSE.md, and TRADEMARK.md
• Review manifest.json name and description for store-facing branding
• Load the repo as an unpacked extension and run a manual smoke test
• Open automated_test.html and confirm the lightweight checks pass
• Verify player_demo.html and player_demo_complete.html still work
• Confirm no internal audit or roadmap docs were copied in by mistake
• Add repository URL fields if you want to expose GitHub metadata later

Before Each Release

• Re-run ./scripts/export-public-repos.sh from the private monorepo
• Diff the exported folder before committing
• Verify icons and popup assets render correctly
• Confirm the SDK file and extension source changed together when needed
