EDITORIAL REVIEW · Workflow idea

Tell people what is available without turning a plan or experiment into a shipped feature.

For authorized work involving approved product notes, confirmed release status, and proposed feature announcements, prepare a feature announcement draft from approved product notes for a product owner and editor to check. Internal notes may be confidential and planned features can be mistaken for released capabilities. Verify status, dates, supported claims, and audience with the product owner, protect unreleased details, and require approval of the exact announcement and destination before publication. Explain information use and retention, obtain required consent, respect source and reuse rights, verify important details, and keep external or consequential actions under human approval.
