## Lifecycle phases

1. **Creative Brief** - interview about vision, themes, goals.
2. **Release Plan** - six-week structured rollout timeline.
3. **Release Copy** - DSP-ready notes and press context grounded in sonic analysis.
4. **Visual Assets** - cover art, canvas videos, social flyers direction.
5. **Smart Links** - pre-save campaigns and routing across DSPs.
6. **Out Now Execution** - release-day announcements + storefront updates.
7. **Post-Release Analysis** - playlist adds, momentum tracking.
8. **Catalog Integration** - every asset saved back to the user's Patchline catalog.

## Why grounded

The plugin reads ISRCs, sonic analysis, historical streaming data, and
audience demographics directly from the user's catalog. Generic AI writes
generic release copy; this plugin writes notes that reference the real track.
