## Setup (4 tasks)

Initial configuration and environment preparation.

### Cross-cutting

* [x] T001 \[S0408] Verify Sessions 01-07 prerequisites, current phase state, and closeout scope with the project analysis script and Phase 04 PRD (`.spec_system/specs/phase04-session08-media-validation-and-documentation-closeout/implementation-notes.md`)

* [x] T003 \[S0408] Audit stable docs, root README, package README files, phase PRD files, and spec memory for stale Phase 04 media claims (`.spec_system/specs/phase04-session08-media-validation-and-documentation-closeout/implementation-notes.md`)
* [x] T004 \[S0408] Run baseline media gate and quality command probes to identify blocking failures before docs updates (`.spec_system/specs/phase04-session08-media-validation-and-documentation-closeout/implementation-notes.md`)

***

## Foundation (5 tasks)

Core structures and evidence maps.

### Cross-cutting

* [x] T005 \[S0408] Define the closeout validation matrix for media gates, browser checks, quality commands, docs checks, security checks, and accepted non-release deferrals (`.spec_system/specs/phase04-session08-media-validation-and-documentation-closeout/implementation-notes.md`)
* [x] T006 \[S0408] \[P] Build the validation report structure with sections for task completion, deliverables, command evidence, browser evidence, documentation evidence, and residual risk (`.spec_system/specs/phase04-session08-media-validation-and-documentation-closeout/validation.md`)
* [x] T007 \[S0408] \[P] Build the security compliance closeout structure for media privacy, provider boundaries, quarantine, GDPR posture, release risks, and future hosted-transfer review (`.spec_system/specs/phase04-session08-media-validation-and-documentation-closeout/security-compliance.md`)
* [x] T008 \[S0408] Map Phase 04 media matrix rows M04-001 through M04-032 to final closeout status, blocker state, owner-session evidence, and future-phase handoff (`.spec_system/specs/phase04-session08-media-validation-and-documentation-closeout/implementation-notes.md`)
* [x] T009 \[S0408] Create the documentation update checklist for PRD, UX PRD, phase PRD, architecture, media assets, privacy, release, deployment, development, README, and package README targets (`.spec_system/specs/phase04-session08-media-validation-and-documentation-closeout/implementation-notes.md`)

***

## Implementation (7 tasks)

Main closeout implementation.

### Validation evidence

* [x] T010 \[S0408] Run and record media validation gates for catalog readiness, draft provenance, visual promotion, public-demo media, battlefield parity, release blockers, and docs references (`.spec_system/specs/phase04-session08-media-validation-and-documentation-closeout/validation.md`)
* [x] T011 \[S0408] Run and record app and public-demo desktop/mobile browser validation for failed media, optional audio visible equivalents, reduced motion, offline reload, service-worker behavior, and privacy-safe browser errors (`.spec_system/specs/phase04-session08-media-validation-and-documentation-closeout/validation.md`)
* [x] T012 \[S0408] Run and record repository quality gates for format, lint, typecheck, tests, build, secret scan, whitespace, ASCII/LF, and quarantine checks (`.spec_system/specs/phase04-session08-media-validation-and-documentation-closeout/validation.md`)

### Documentation and handoff

* [x] T013 \[S0408] Update Phase 04 PRD progress, Session 08 closeout status, validated evidence summary, and Phase 05 handoff language (`.spec_system/PRD/phase_04/PRD_phase_04.md`)
* [x] T014 \[S0408] Update master PRD and UX PRD Phase 04 status maps, media/audio shipped behavior, and Phase 05-08 deferral boundaries (`.spec_system/PRD/PRD.md`, `.spec_system/PRD/PRD_UX.md`)
* [x] T015 \[S0408] Update stable architecture, media assets, privacy, release, deployment, and development docs with Phase 04 closeout evidence and current command guidance (`docs/ARCHITECTURE.md`, `docs/media-assets.md`, `docs/privacy-and-security.md`, `docs/release.md`, `docs/deployment.md`, `docs/development.md`)
* [x] T016 \[S0408] Update root README, web README, public-demo README, and scripts README with accurate media gate, cache, offline, and shipped/deferred behavior (`README.md`, `apps/web/README_web.md`, `public-demo/README_public-demo.md`, `scripts/README_scripts.md`)

***

## Testing (4 tasks)

Verification and quality assurance.

### Cross-cutting

* [x] T017 \[S0408] Record Phase 04 security/GDPR closeout, media privacy gate results, provider-transfer boundaries, quarantine review, and open release risks (`.spec_system/specs/phase04-session08-media-validation-and-documentation-closeout/security-compliance.md`)
* [x] T018 \[S0408] Record carryforward notes for Phase 05 War Room integration, Phase 06 collaboration/mobile, Phase 07 hosted services/analytics, and Phase 08 release cleanup (`.spec_system/CONSIDERATIONS.md`)
* [x] T019 \[S0408] Run final verification sweep after documentation updates and confirm no stale shipped claims, failed gates, non-ASCII text, CRLF endings, whitespace errors, secret scan issues, or quarantine violations remain (`.spec_system/specs/phase04-session08-media-validation-and-documentation-closeout/validation.md`)
* [x] T020 \[S0408] Create the Phase 04 implementation summary and final session handoff with validated results, remaining deferrals, and the next workflow step (`.spec_system/specs/phase04-session08-media-validation-and-documentation-closeout/IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md`)

***

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://faction-os.gitbook.io/faction-os-docs/.spec_system/archive/sessions/phase04-session08-media-validation-and-documentation-closeout/tasks.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
