The GPT-6 Astra launch article was already live before the build log existed. This entry backfills its trail strictly from the evidenced linked issues. Anything not stated there is marked as not evidenced.
Motivation
The build log should show how each visible change shipped. This entry rebuilds the shipment from linked-issue evidence only, without inventing or embellishing details. The live article is the launch guide for solo builders.
What changed
The site gained an article on the launch, built from official sources plus benchmarks. The editor deliverable used six primary sources with no numbers invented. Development implemented it on the feature branch and merged through the pull request. The deploy carried the merged main branch live. Exact timestamps within the day are not evidenced in the linked record.
How it was done
Development branched from the previous release, used the article scaffold, changed sixteen files, and passed the full test suite. Security and quality reviewed the pull request head. The deploy carried the merged main branch live and verified the post, sitemap, feed and robots. Reviewer names, times of day, and deploy commands are not evidenced in the linked record.
Verification evidence
Security sign-off and quality sign-off on the reviewed head, with every link returning 200, every benchmark row linked, and zero unsourced numbers. The deploy verified the post, sitemap, feed and robots at 200. HTTP logs and full review text are not evidenced in the linked record.
