## Release Scope
| item | included | excluded | notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| analysis type | One small-displacement, small-rotation `*STEP, *STATIC` | Multiple steps, geometric/material nonlinearity, buckling, modal, dynamic, contact, thermal | Existing factorize-before-load linear-static lifecycle is retained. |
| element type | Four-node source `S4` and `S4R` mapped to one full-integration `FESA-MITC4` path | `S3`, `S8`, `S8R`, continuum/solid/axisymmetric shells, MITC4+, MITC4/D, reduced integration/hourglass behavior | Source type is preserved as metadata; no Abaqus formulation-equivalence claim is made. |
| nodal degrees of freedom | Global `[UX,UY,UZ,URX,URY,URZ]`; 20 physical element coordinates plus four numerical drilling coordinates | Physical drilling strain/load/result channel | Director-parallel nodal moment is rejected. |
| material and section | Centered, single-layer, homogeneous isotropic linear elasticity with finite valid `E`, `nu`, and constant positive thickness | Composite/laminated or orthotropic sections, offsets, variable/nodal thickness, user orientation | Multiple valid materials/sections/element sets are allowed with exactly one assignment per element. |
| geometry | Valid four-node quadrilaterals and smooth shell patches with deterministic geometry-derived directors | Explicit normals/directors, shared-node sharp folds, hinges, shell-beam joints, calibrated distortion/warp thresholds | A physical fold requires duplicated source nodes. |
| loads and constraints | Nodal `*BOUNDARY` and global nodal `*CLOAD` on DOFs 1-6, subject to the drilling-moment projection rule | `*DLOAD`, pressure, gravity, body/edge/follower load | Output-request keywords in the allowlist remain warning no-ops. |
| authoritative output | HDF5 `results.h5`: nodal displacement/full residual, shell frames, generalized strain/resultant, bottom/middle/top in-plane stress, physical energy, equilibrium, verification metrics, diagnostics | Official CSV solver output, drilling output/energy, `S33`, pointwise `S13/S23`, nodal shell-stress averaging | HDF5 schema version remains `0` and is extended additively. |
| external acceptance | Read-only `reference/shell/shell.inp` and `reference/shell/shell displacements.csv`; `U1/U2/U3` blocking at fixed absolute `1.0e-5`; `UR1/UR2/UR3` warning-only at the same value | S4R artifact consumption; Abaqus reaction/stress/strain/resultant equality | Direct HDF5-to-CSV source identity mapping is authoritative. |

### Gate Consistency and Staleness Audit
- Every gate uses `feature_id=linear-static-mitc4-shell`. Build/Test, Reference Verification, and Physics Evaluation all identify source HEAD `820ba30c717b3d0e113775608e20dfd5fbc05d53`, which is the audited current HEAD.
- The requirements metadata value `current_product_state=requirements-approved-not-implemented` records the product state when the requirements gate was authored. It is not the requirements gate status and does not alter the later implementation evidence.
- Numerical Review values `implementation_complete=false`, `build_test_complete=false`, `reference_comparison_complete=false`, `physics_evaluation_complete=false`, and `release_ready=false` are explicit pre-implementation review boundaries. Later same-feature reports at the audited HEAD supply those downstream decisions. They are phase-time markers, not contradictory live statuses.
- No contract meaning, reference inventory, tolerance, or source identity in those earlier documents conflicts with the final reports. The phase-time markers are therefore nonblocking and are not silently treated as current completion claims.
- A separate implementation report is nonblocking under the current workflow because the Build/Test report explicitly declares `source_implementation_report=N/A` and points to the Harness index. The index records each RED failure, GREEN behavior, focused/full verification summary and completion timestamp, while all 14 generated step-output records have `exitCode=0`.
- A correction report is nonblocking `N/A`: Correction Agent reporting is required after a formal downstream failure handoff. The final formal Build/Test, Reference Verification, and Physics Evaluation gates report no such failure or unresolved defect. Historical implementation-phase retries and correction commits precede the clean independent gates and are closed by the final phase ledger and source HEAD.
- The Numerical Review metadata contains two historical commit references (`reviewed_head=cf769aa` and a downstream note naming `a058ef7`). This is a document-history inconsistency, but its mathematical verdict was re-audited against the current tracked requirements/formulation/I/O/reference contracts and independently exercised at `820ba30...`; it does not create a scope, tolerance, or acceptance contradiction.
## Evidence Hash Inventory
SHA-256 values are lowercase. The build-local HDF5 container is intentionally not a decision identity because valid regenerations can change raw container bytes; the deterministic projected ledger is the stable comparison evidence.

The Release Agent did not run Abaqus. It independently read the complete upstream evidence chain, enumerated current CTest discovery read-only, checked all Harness output exit codes, verified source HEAD/branch/status, and recomputed the declared artifact/report hashes. The primary audit then performed a fresh current-HEAD incremental full build, full CTest run and Harness self-test as the final completion check; all passed as recorded above.

## Known Limitations
| limitation | category | user impact | disposition |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| One small-displacement/small-rotation linear-static step only | analysis | Nonlinear, buckling, modal, dynamic, contact and thermal models are rejected/not executed. | documented |
| S4 and S4R are source labels for one full-integration FESA-MITC4 formulation | input/numerical | No Abaqus S4/S4R internal algorithm, reduced-integration or hourglass equivalence is claimed. | documented |
| External acceptance uses one flat symmetric fully clamped S4 plate | verification | General curved/distorted/thin-thick convergence is not established by the source-solver comparison. | accepted risk; optional future evidence |
| Original MITC4 membrane field is unmodified | numerical | Distorted curved meshes may exhibit membrane locking; MITC4+ performance is not claimed. | documented |
| S4R has no blocking Abaqus reference comparison | verification | S4R support is proven by parser/common-kernel/deterministic-assembly/HDF5 metadata tests only. | approved boundary |
| Homogeneous isotropic centered single layer with constant thickness | material/section | Composite, orthotropic, offset and variable-thickness models are unsupported. | documented |
| Smooth geometry-derived director field only | geometry | Explicit normals and shared-node folds/hinges/intersections are unsupported; folds require duplicated nodes. | documented |
| Nodal loads/constraints only | load | Pressure, gravity, DLOAD, body/edge/follower load are unsupported. Director-parallel moments fail as `unsupported-drilling-load`. | documented |
| Fixed numerical drilling stabilization | numerical | It is not a physical strain/load/result channel; no calibration sweep or drilling-energy ratio is supplied. | accepted fixed policy |
| In-plane stress only at bottom/middle/top | output | `S33` is a plane-stress assumption; `S13/S23` point stress and nodal averaging are not emitted. | documented |
| Raw HDF5 container bytes are not a declared deterministic identity | output/evidence | Regeneration may change the raw file hash; ordered projected rows and the JSON comparison ledger are deterministic evidence. | documented, nonblocking |
| Target-wide CTest label remains the legacy beam label | test infrastructure | MITC4 selection uses the approved exact suite regexes instead of a dedicated label. | documented, nonblocking |
## Release Notes Draft
### Feature Summary
- Adds end-to-end single-step linear-static analysis for four-node shell inputs labeled `S4` or `S4R`, both mapped to the independent full-integration `FESA-MITC4` formulation.
- Adds deterministic geometry-derived nodal directors, six global nodal DOFs, MITC4 transverse-shear tying, fixed nonphysical drilling stabilization, deterministic sparse assembly, full-residual reactions, physical shell recovery and failure-atomic HDF5 output.
- Adds mandatory HDF5 nodal displacement/reaction, shell local frames, generalized strain/resultant, bottom/middle/top in-plane stress, physical energy, equilibrium and verification metrics.
### Verification Scope
- Clean Visual Studio 18 2026/MSVC x64 Debug build and full `144/144` CTest regression passed with zero compiler/linker warnings.
- All 14 Harness implementation Steps completed with recorded RED/GREEN/VERIFY evidence and successful output exit codes.
- The sole declared S4 case matched all `147` blocking translational rows within fixed absolute `1.0e-5`; all `147` rotation rows were within the warning threshold and produced no warnings.
- Physics checks passed for global force/moment equilibrium, full-residual reactions, displacement direction, double symmetry, generalized resultant/stress consistency, free residual, finite results and positive physical energy.
### Main Limitations
- The released scope is linear static, small deformation, homogeneous isotropic single-layer MITC4 with nodal loads and constraints only.
- Abaqus compatibility and Abaqus S4/S4R formulation equivalence are not claimed. S4R uses the same FESA full-integration kernel and is not an Abaqus reference gate.
- Broader curved/distorted/thin-thick convergence, original-MITC4 membrane-locking characterization, nonlinear execution, distributed loads, composites, physical drilling behavior and expanded stress output remain outside this release.

- Build-local deterministic ledger: `.harness/build/reference/mitc4-shell-s4-comparison/comparison.json`
## Release Verdict
- verdict: `ready-for-release`
- reason: all required upstream gates are present and passing; the final three mandatory handoff statuses are exactly `pass-for-reference-verification`, `pass-for-physics-evaluation`, and `pass-for-release-agent`; every `must` requirement `001-072` has a released disposition; required S4 artifacts and row mappings are present and valid; no unresolved defect, missing comparison file, tolerance conflict, nonfinite result, identity gap, or physics blocker remains.
- approval_scope: internal feature release closure only
- external_release_action: `none`
## Handoff Recommendation
| target_agent | reason | required_input |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Coordinator Agent | Close the feature workflow with `ready-for-release`. | This report, source HEAD `820ba30c717b3d0e113775608e20dfd5fbc05d53`, and the three passing downstream gate reports. |
| Correction Agent | N/A; no implementation-owned release blocker remains. | N/A |
| Reference Verification Agent | N/A; the required S4 comparison is complete and passing. | N/A |
| Physics Evaluation Agent | N/A; physics evaluation is complete and passing. | N/A |

- notes: before this report was created, the worktree had no tracked/staged diff and contained only the three upstream gate reports as untracked files. This audit adds only `docs/releases/linear-static-mitc4-shell-release.md`; generated build-local evidence remains ignored under `.harness/build/`.
## Open Issues
- blocking: `none`
- deferred requirements: `none`
- unresolved defects: `none`
- missing required comparison files or mappings: `none`
- nonblocking administrative note: the Build/Test, Reference Verification, Physics Evaluation and this Release report are untracked workspace reports pending whatever repository-integration action the user or Coordinator Agent separately authorizes. Their untracked state does not invalidate their content or the current internal readiness verdict.
- nonblocking evidence note: raw `results.h5` hashes can differ across valid regenerations; no byte-identical HDF5 container claim is made.
