plan-release-cycle

Plan a structured software release cycle by defining strategy (calendar-based or feature-based), setting milestones with target dates, establishing feature freeze criteria, managing release candidates, defining go/no-go checklists, and documenting rollback plans. Produces a RELEASE-PLAN.md artifact that guides the team from development through release.

For most projects, a hybrid approach works well: set a target date with a defined scope, but allow a 1-2 week buffer. If scope is not met by the buffer deadline, defer remaining features.

Expected: Release strategy documented with rationale matching project context.

规划软件发布周期，包括里程碑、功能冻结、候选发布以及通过/不通过标准。涵盖基于日历和基于功能的发布策略。在开始规划主要或次要版本发布、从临时发布节奏过渡到结构化发布节奏、协调多个团队或组件之间的发布、为受监管项目定义质量关卡或规划项目的首次公开发布 (v1.0.0) 时使用。 来源：pjt222/development-guides。
