Pkgdown publication-surface evidence: Repaired the documentation evidence contract so source docs, generated docs/, GitHub Pages output, and browser visual smoke artifacts have distinct release-readiness roles. This clarifies how the generated site proves current pkgdown content and widget embedding without implying new rendering support.
v1.13 release notes
CI/browser visual smoke validation: Added a dedicated browser visual smoke workflow with CI-mode behavior, stable DOM/report metadata checks, and downloadable artifact bundles. Browser visual artifacts remain inspection evidence under ignored paths such as test_output/browser-visual-smoke/ and downloaded GitHub run artifact directories; screenshots, DOM summaries, browser logs, and report JSON are not committed as release notes.
Renderer and IR contract consolidation: Hardened renderer wiring around geom-contracts.js, source gates for module load order, render/update/interaction selectors, and shared public-payload sanitization. High-risk R-side IR responsibilities now have focused helper-boundary tests while full as_d3_ir() modularization remains future work.
Geometry polish closure: Shipped bounded ordinary geom_label() SVG boxes with text placement fields, kept ordinary geom_polygon() subgroup/hole topology as an explicit fixture-backed non-goal, and added finite transformed-bound filtering for geom_rect() and geom_tile() before invalid SVG attributes are emitted. Collision avoidance, rich text, and path-following text remain deferred.
Release-readiness gate: Phase 55 evidence records focused renderer/IR/geometry source gates, documentation generation, devtools::test(), browser visual smoke behavior, source package build, and R CMD check --as-cran command classes. Optional spatial and browser skips are documented as evidence classifications, not release success by themselves; package-check ERROR or WARNING outcomes remain release blockers. Package-check artifacts live in uncommitted package-check directories and raw local command output, browser logs, 00check.log excerpts, DOM dumps, and report JSON contents are not published in NEWS.md.
Residual risks and future candidates: FUT-01 committed golden screenshots and pixel-diff thresholds, FUT-02 hosted pull-request visual reports, FUT-03 full as_d3_ir() modularization, FUT-04 generated renderer documentation from contracts, FUT-05 full ggrepel-compatible label placement, and FUT-06 broad GIS-style polygon topology repair remain future candidates rather than shipped v1.13 support.
