Meridian Internal Beta Release Candidate Checklist

Use this checklist for each internal beta candidate. The goal is evidence of reliability and recoverability; after Phase 9F/9G passes, the scoped Phase 10 field-workflow additions below become part of the pre-release candidate surface.

Status key:

v1.2 feature fold-in (2026-08-05)

The v1.2 branch was merged into the v1.1 release line: Workflow Builder (visual DAG chaining of analysis tools, saved per project) and Map Briefs (saved multi-page PDF report documents) now ship in v1.1 on iPad, Mac, and Windows, both Pro-gated (Workflow Builder under the analysis-tools gate; Briefs under the PDF-output gate, with paywall routing and ProBadge on the Briefs tab).

v1.1 IAP + Hardening Audit (2026-07-24)

Three parallel audits (IAP readiness, reliability/hardening, performance + v1.2 scope) found no release blockers for v1.1 (free download + Meridian Pro IAP). One App-Store-rejection risk (missing paywall Privacy Policy/Terms links) and two free-tier gating bugs (connected CSV import cap bypass, multi-layer export gate over-blocking) were found and fixed, along with several should-fix hardening items (Release-build #if DEBUG gating of test seams, Mac .gispad Finder association, new gating test coverage). See agent_tasks.md and docs/meridian-pro-iap-plan.md for the full list. Verification: cargo build; full MeridianTests suite (948 tests, 0 failures); clean Release-config iOS build; clean Mac Debug build + MeridianMacTests gating subset (16/16). This is additive to, not a rerun of, the 2026-06-09 v1.0 evidence below.
