# AI Coding Agent Release Gate Template

Use this free release gate before shipping AI-agent work to a public repo, app, website, package, or sales page.

The gate maps every release claim to evidence. If evidence is missing, the release is not done.

## Evidence Rules

| Claim | Evidence Needed |
| --- | --- |
| Build passes | Exact build command and exit status |
| Tests pass | Exact test command and result |
| Visual QA done | Screenshot, rendered URL, or browser test result |

## Hard Stop Conditions

Hold the release when:

- a checkout, payout, tax, legal, identity, or credential step is required;
- the paid product ZIP would be published in a public preview;
- a revenue number is not backed by a checkout or seller dashboard;
- the only proof is a local file that users cannot reach;
- the agent changed files outside the requested release scope.
