Confirm final tag: v1.1.0

Confirm final release title: AINL v1.1.0 — First Public GitHub Release (Open-Core Baseline)

Confirm GitHub release body matches current repo truth

Create/push annotated tag if not already present

Publish GitHub release using the final body

After publish, convert docs/issues/*.md into actual GitHub issues

Group post-release issues under a practical milestone such as:

• Post-v1.1.0

Link the published release from any relevant project channels

Do a final quick sanity pass on:

• README links
• docs index links
• release doc links

Do not reopen semantics during release unless a concrete blocker is found
