ijfw-ship

Run the Ship phase of the IJFW workflow. This is the final phase -- pre-flight checks, deployment, monitoring, rollback plan, documentation, and memory update.

Ship checklist:

• Changelog updated with what shipped
• Deployment steps verified (or deployment executed if automated)
• Monitoring and alerting confirmed in place
• Rollback plan documented
• User-facing documentation current
• IJFW memory updated with the full project summary

Donahoe principles enforced at ship:

• P15: Updates invisible to users -- no action required from them
• P20: Works on all target platforms
• P21: Pricing respects the user (no surprise costs introduced)

Ledger gate (blocks ship): Before the SHIP GATE runs, read .ijfw/state/execute-issues.json:

read_issues() {
  local f=".ijfw/state/execute-issues.json"
  [ -f "$f" ] || { printf '{"issues":[]}'; return; }
  cat "$f"
}

If any entry has status: unresolved (any kind), ship is refused:

ISSUE: ship-blocked-by-unresolved-issues
  count: <N>
  ids: [iss_001, iss_002]
  action: resolve all issues before shipping

Missing file = zero issues (day-1 fresh-install protection). Resolved and absent entries do not block ship.

Before running, the SHIP GATE re-reads the original brief and confirms what was built matches what was asked. If gaps remain, ship is held until they close.

This command invokes ijfw-workflow at the D6 Ship phase directly.

GATE: The SHIP GATE must pass before deployment proceeds -- original brief re-read, changelog updated, monitoring confirmed, rollback plan documented.

Confidence declaration (required before push/publish): Every ship-readiness claim is tagged VERIFIED / LIKELY / GUESSING / ISSUE. Ship proceeds only when every blocking claim is VERIFIED (live-run command with raw output) or LIKELY with explicit user acknowledgement. GUESSING or ISSUE halts the ship. Publish operations (git push, git tag v*, npm publish) require the user's explicit push-word ("push it" / "ship it" / "tag and push") -- no substitute authorization accepted. See feedback_push_back_on_irreversible.md.

Natural triggers: "ship it", "deploy", "let's ship", "go live", "time to ship", "wrap this up."
