Governance Platform v1.0.0-rc.2 is the second release candidate for the v1.0.0
customer release line. This candidate is intended for QA-week validation before
the final v1.0.0 publication decision.

## Included Runtime Components

- Governance Studio
- Governance Service
- Auth Service
- Integrity Service
- EQTY PDFGen
- Governance Platform deployment charts

## Changes Since v1.0.0-rc.1

- Updates Governance Studio with scoped lineage explorer styling changes.
- Updates Governance Backend with governance-service and auth-service audit
  cleanup, policy and indicator query batching, event JSONPath evaluator cleanup,
  and related test coverage.
- Updates EQTY PDFGen with manifest validation cleanup, control header and
  timeline rendering refinements, and build-gating improvements.
- Keeps Integrity Service on the same source ref as v1.0.0-rc.1.
- Refreshes infrastructure source refs and dev image tracking for the candidate
  build inputs.

## Candidate Scope

- Bumps runtime and umbrella Helm charts to `1.0.0-rc.2`.
- Pins component source refs, image tags, and image digests in the release
  manifest.
- Regenerates the Governance Platform umbrella chart lock file.
- Requires customer-like validation with Keycloak and external PostgreSQL before
  publication.

## Release Status

This candidate was not published. Its QA validation was not completed, and
v1.0.0-rc.3 superseded it, so no customer artifacts were released for it.
Install [v1.0.0-rc.3](./v1-0-0-rc-3.mdx) or a later release instead.
