# CAVRA Customer Lifecycle Phase 8 Public Scorecard Distribution Audit Index

The customer lifecycle Phase 8 public scorecard distribution audit index packet
is the R7.34 release gate for binding the public scorecard distribution
readiness and closeout chain into one audit-ready, public-safe index.

The packet consumes the R7.33 public scorecard distribution closeout packet and
retains its R7.32 readiness result. It validates dependency refs, publication
snapshot refs, delivery proof refs, link audit refs, redaction scan refs,
archive handoff refs, next-review refs, CI coverage, and explicit audit-index
controls.

It does not embed customer names, email addresses, recipient addresses, raw
subscribers, raw channel records, raw notification payloads, raw delivery
records, raw proofs, raw link checks, raw distribution records, raw scorecards,
raw summaries, customer health scores, raw evidence, private notes, pricing,
contract values, renewal amounts, raw contracts, legal terms, secrets, tokens,
or commercial terms.

## What It Verifies

- The R7.32 public scorecard distribution readiness result is present, live,
  sanitized, ready, and blocker-free.
- The R7.33 public scorecard distribution closeout result is present, live,
  sanitized, ready, and blocker-free.
- Executive, communications, customer-success, security, product, web,
  compliance, and audit owner refs are present.
- The audit-index contract includes source readiness, source closeout,
  publication snapshot index, delivery proof index, link-check index, redaction
  scan index, archive handoff index, next review, and redaction-status fields.
- Dependency refs bind distribution readiness, distribution closeout, executive
  summary closeout, and the public scorecard operating loop.
- Publication snapshot refs cover product website, GitHub README, GitHub Wiki,
  status page, and email update snapshots.
- Delivery proof refs cover release, customer-success, security, and
  public-status notification proofs.
- Link audit refs cover product website, README, Wiki, Trial Field Guide, and
  sandbox links.
- Redaction scan refs cover private material, customer identity, commercial
  terms, and public boundary scans.
- Archive handoff refs cover distribution archive manifest, audit index archive,
  evidence room handoff, and immutable snapshot refs.
- Next-review refs cover next refresh trigger, next audit review, owner
  acknowledgement, and roadmap follow-up.
- CI gate coverage exists for source readiness, source closeout, publication
  snapshots, delivery proofs, link audits, redaction scans, archive handoff, and
  next review.

## Generate Examples

```bash
python3 scripts/validate_customer_lifecycle_phase8_public_scorecard_distribution_audit_index.py \
  --export-dir examples/customer-lifecycle-phase8-public-scorecard-distribution-audit-index \
  --repo-root .
```

## Validate Distribution Audit Index

```bash
python3 scripts/validate_customer_lifecycle_phase8_public_scorecard_distribution_audit_index.py \
  --packet examples/customer-lifecycle-phase8-public-scorecard-distribution-audit-index/customer-lifecycle-phase8-public-scorecard-distribution-audit-index.live.sanitized.example.json \
  --repo-root . \
  --require-live
```

Completion condition:

```json
{
  "ready_for_customer_lifecycle_phase8_public_scorecard_distribution_audit_index": true,
  "blocker_count": 0,
  "warning_count": 0
}
```

The same gate is available through the CLI:

```bash
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m cavra.cli release customer-lifecycle-phase8-public-scorecard-distribution-audit-index \
  --packet examples/customer-lifecycle-phase8-public-scorecard-distribution-audit-index/customer-lifecycle-phase8-public-scorecard-distribution-audit-index.live.sanitized.example.json \
  --repo-root . \
  --require-live
```

## Public Repository Boundary

The public repository provides the distribution audit-index contract, examples,
validator, CLI command, tests, docs, and CI workflow. Real subscriber lists,
customer-specific status, notification delivery proofs, link-check output,
archive contents, evidence-room records, secrets, tokens, pricing, and
commercial context remain deployment-specific.
