# Step 10: release-readiness-note

## Read These Files First

Read the following files before editing:

- `/AGENTS.md`
- `/docs/PRD.md`
- `/docs/ADR.md`
- `/docs/releases/README.md`
- `/docs/requirements/euler-beam-3d.md`
- `/docs/io-definitions/euler-beam-3d-io.md`
- `/docs/reference-models/euler-beam-3d-reference-models.md`
- `/docs/build-test-reports/euler-beam-3d-build-test.md`

## Task

Create `/docs/releases/euler-beam-3d-release.md`.

This is a readiness note, not a release approval. It must state:

- status: `not-release-ready-kernel-increment-complete` unless all upstream gates and reference artifacts somehow exist
- completed scope: local/global stiffness and end-force kernel for two-node 3D Euler-Bernoulli beam
- missing for full feature release:
  - parser implementation for the approved Abaqus subset
  - section/property semantic model integration
  - assembler/static solver integration
  - HDF5 result emission for beam quantities
  - stored Abaqus reference artifacts
  - reference comparison report
  - physics sanity report
- known limitations from requirements
- next recommended phase or phase dependencies

Do not change source or tests in this step.

## Tests To Write First

- No C++ test is required in this documentation-only step.

## Acceptance Criteria

```powershell
python -m unittest discover -s scripts -p "test_*.py"
python scripts/validate_workspace.py
```

## Verification Notes

1. Confirm the note does not claim full release readiness.
2. Confirm all missing gates are explicit.
3. Update `phases/euler-beam-3d/index.json` step 10:
   - success: `"status": "completed"`, `"summary": "3D Euler beam release readiness note added"`
   - failure after retries: `"status": "error"`, `"error_message": "<specific error>"`
   - blocked: `"status": "blocked"`, `"blocked_reason": "<specific reason>"`

## Forbidden

- Do not create or modify reference artifacts.
- Do not modify source, tests, requirements, formulations, or I/O contracts.
