# Customer Lifecycle Phase 8 Public Scorecard Refresh Closeout

The customer lifecycle Phase 8 public scorecard refresh closeout packet is the
R7.29 gate that proves a refreshed public scorecard was published,
communicated, archived, and closed with audit-ready evidence. It consumes the
R7.28 public scorecard refresh checkpoint and turns the refresh plan into a
completed public operating event.

```

## Required Checks

- The public scorecard refresh checkpoint source gate is ready.
- Executive, communications, customer-success, support, security, and product
  owner refs are present.
- Source refresh checkpoint, updated scorecard publication, notification,
  archive snapshot, stale-resolution, refresh-audit closeout, and redaction
  status refs are complete.
- Published updated scorecard, scorecard delta, public status update, and
  release notes update refs are sanitized.
- Executive, customer-success, support, security, and stakeholder notification
  refs are sanitized.
- Immutable refresh archive, previous scorecard snapshot, updated scorecard
  snapshot, and refresh manifest refs are sanitized.
- Stale scorecard resolution, owner resolution, public notice resolution, and
  next staleness review refs are sanitized.
- Refresh audit report, redaction closeout, archive integrity, and publication
  integrity refs are sanitized.
- CI gates cover source refresh checkpoint, updated scorecard validation,
  notification refs, archive snapshots, stale resolution, refresh audit
  closeout, and redaction.
