-## Phase 2: Release Workflow + Plan Architecture (10 hours)
-
-### Critical: ReleaseConfig Extensions (NEW - 3 hours)
-
-- [ ] Add `changelog` field to ReleaseConfig - *30 min*
-  - Path to per-crate CHANGELOG.md (e.g., `crates/lib-core/CHANGELOG.md`)
-  - Update schema in config.rs
-  - Add validation
-
-- [ ] Add `visibility` field to ReleaseConfig - *30 min*
-  - Enum: `oss | internal | enterprise`
-  - Enables tier-based graph filtering
-  - Add to schema + tests
-
-- [ ] Add `includes` field to ReleaseConfig - *30 min*
-  - List of crate names included in this release
-  - For products that bundle multiple crates
-  - Wire into graph analysis
-
-- [ ] Wire changelog generation into `release apply` - *1.5 hours*
-  - Generate changelog entry from conventional commits
-  - Prepend to configured changelog file
-  - Update last_sha/last_version/last_date
-  - Commit with changelog update
-
-### Critical: Safe Changelog Parser (NEW - 4 hours)
-
-- [ ] Create `quality::changelog` module - *2 hours*
-  - Replace git-cliff-core with deterministic parser
-  - Use nom/winnow (not regex) for conventional commits
-  - Zero-panic guarantee with `#[track_caller]`
-  - Fuzz with proptest
-
-- [ ] Implement `ConventionalCommitParser` - *1 hour*
-  - Parse: `<type>(<scope>): <description>`
-  - Support: `BREAKING CHANGE` footers
-  - Return structured `ConventionalCommit` type
-  - Property tested
-
-- [ ] Implement `ChangelogGenerator` - *1 hour*
-  - Use existing `WorkspaceGraph` + git walker
-  - Generate Markdown/JSON output
-  - Support custom templates (simple string interpolation, no regex)
-  - Integration with `release apply`
-
-### Critical: Plan as Execution Engine (NEW - 3 hours)
-
-- [ ] Create `core::executor` module - *1 hour*
-  - `PlanExecutor` struct with workspace context
-  - `execute(&Plan)` method that runs operations
-  - Map each `Operation` variant to existing core functions
-
-- [ ] Implement `execute_operation` dispatch - *1 hour*
-  - `Operation::InitRepo` → `SystemGit::init_repo`
-  - `Operation::Transform` → `CargoTransform`
-  - `Operation::Copy` → filesystem ops
-  - `Operation::Push` → `SystemGit` remote ops
-  - All other operation types
-
-- [ ] Refactor commands to use PlanExecutor - *1 hour*
-  - `split`: build plan, then execute
-  - `sync`: build plan, then execute
-  - `release apply`: build plan, then execute
-  - Add `--plan-only` flag for dry-run
-
-**Phase 2 total**: ~10 hours
+## Phase 2: Release Workflow + Plan Architecture ✅ COMPLETE
