In `@docs/release-organization.md`:
- Around line 134-140: The ordered list under the "How to create the `Release`"
section has inconsistent numbering (items 1,2,3 where nested/subitems should use
consistent auto-numbering); update the markdown so all ordered lists use a
single style (prefer using "1." for every list item to leverage Markdown
auto-numbering) for the block that references `ReleasePlan`, `Release`, and
`Snapshot` and for the subsequent section (4.3) so numbering is consistent
throughout; ensure nested bullets remain either dashed or numbered consistently
and verify the Konflux UI/kubectl mention stays as a list item under the same
list.
- Line 17: Several occurrences in the document use mixed/mismatched markdown
markers like **ReleasePlan`** which break rendering; search for the identifiers
ReleasePlan and ReleasePlanAdmission and replace each malformed instance with
the correct markdown form depending on intent (bold code: **`ReleasePlan`**,
bold text: **ReleasePlan**, or inline code: `ReleasePlan`); update all listed
lines (and any other similar occurrences) so the opening and closing backticks
and asterisks match for consistent rendering.
- Line 98: The release note for the RC tag is confusing because it shows
x.y.z"rcZZ" with embedded quotes; update the sentence that references `x.y.zrcN`
to remove stray quotes and clearly show incorrect vs correct forms (e.g., show
the incorrect example as x.y.z"rcZZ" or "x.y.z-rcZZ" and then the intended
correct form as **x.y.zrcZZ**), replacing the current fragment `x.y.z"rcZZ"`
with an explicit clarification and the bolded correct form `x.y.zrcZZ` so
readers can unambiguously see the intended RC tag notation.
- Line 216: Add a single trailing newline character at the end of the document
that contains the sentence "If internal Konflux YAML or Comet bundle sources
live in other repositories, link them here once their locations are fixed so
this document stays the single narrative entry point." — open that file and
ensure it ends with exactly one newline (no extra blank lines).

## 2. Konflux

Konflux groups Lightspeed Core work by **Application** (one per minor release branch), **component** builds inside that application, and **release** wiring: a `**ReleasePlan`** per application in the developer tenant, paired with **ReleasePlanAdmission (RPA)** in the managed tenant so promotions land on the right `registry.redhat.io` paths and tags.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Fix markdown formatting: mismatched bold and backtick markers.

Line 17 contains **ReleasePlan**` which has mismatched formatting markers. This pattern appears throughout the document (lines 26, 27, 30, 52, 58, 60, 121, 130, 136, 138, 140, 148, 170, 172, 176, 178, 180, 181, 183, 185, 192, 193, 194, 201, 203, 208, 209) and will cause incorrect rendering.

Correct patterns:

  • For bold code: **\ReleasePlan`**`
  • For just bold: **ReleasePlan**
  • For just code: \ReleasePlan``

17-18: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Fix malformed bold/code markdown markers across the document.

Several instances still use broken combinations like `**ReleasePlan`** / **x.y.zrcN** / **release/0.6**, which render incorrectly. Use one consistent form per intent (e.g., ReleasePlan, release/0.6, or release/0.6).

the correct branch (`release/0.5` for 0.5.x, `main` for 0.6.x)" conflicts with
the later statement that "0.6.1 commits are on `release/0.6`"; make these
consistent by updating the Git guidance to match the model described in §2.1
(e.g., state that 0.6.x patch releases are cut from `release/0.6` rather than
`main`, or alternately update the later example to indicate patches come from
`main` if §2.1 intends that), and ensure both the paragraph containing "Git:
Follow your team's tag or release-branch policy..." and the example mentioning
"0.6.1 commits are on `release/0.6`" use the same branch policy and add a
one-sentence pointer to §2.1 for the canonical policy.

Typical flow:

1. **Version bump**: Update `src/version.py` to the target version (e.g. `__version__ = "0.6.1"` or `__version__ = "0.6.0rc1"`). Commit and push to the correct branch. CI validates the version string via `pdm show --version`.
2. **Git**: Follow your team's tag or release-branch policy on the correct branch (`release/0.5` for 0.5.x, `main` for 0.6.x).

Resolve contradictory branch guidance for 0.6 patch releases.

Line 239 says 0.6.x ships from main, while Line 282 says 0.6.1 commits are on release/0.6. This can send operators to cut a patch from the wrong branch.

-| 0.6.1 patch        | Bump `version.py` to `0.6.1`; commits on `release/0.6`              | Keep `lightspeed-core-0.6`                                    | Same component names; revision still **that release branch**  | **RPA:** add `0.6.1` tag -> **Snapshot** -> `**Release`** (§4.1)            |

In `@docs/release-organization.md` at line 239, The document contains
contradictory branch guidance: the sentence that currently reads "Git: Follow
your team's tag or release-branch policy on the correct branch (`release/0.5`
for 0.5.x, `main` for 0.6.x)" conflicts with the later statement that "0.6.1
commits are on `release/0.6`"; make these consistent by updating the Git
guidance to match the model described in §2.1 (e.g., state that 0.6.x patch
releases are cut from `release/0.6` rather than `main`, or alternately update
the later example to indicate patches come from `main` if §2.1 intends that),
and ensure both the paragraph containing "Git: Follow your team's tag or
release-branch policy..." and the example mentioning "0.6.1 commits are on
`release/0.6`" use the same branch policy and add a one-sentence pointer to §2.1
for the canonical policy.

single-step deeper level (### Conventions) to restore proper markdown hierarchy
and fix TOC/anchor issues, and then regenerate or re-check the table of contents

- Around line 18-36: TOC anchor fragments are incorrect and don’t match the
generated heading IDs; update each TOC link so the fragment exactly matches the
markdown-generated slug for its heading (e.g., change the top-level
"`#release-organization`" to the slug for the actual heading "Konflux release
organization", update "Konflux" and nested items like "Applications and
components", "ReleasePlan per application and connection to RPA", and longer
headings such as "Comet (container catalog): what users pull" and "Snapshot
selection and creating a `Release` for an Application" to their exact generated
anchors), applying the same correction pattern to all nested entries so every
fragment equals the heading text’s slug (respecting lowercase,

Fix broken TOC anchor fragments.

Several TOC links point to fragments that don’t match generated heading IDs (for example Line 18 links to #release-organization, while the heading at Line 178 generates a different anchor). This breaks in-page navigation.

Suggested TOC fix pattern
-* [Konflux release organization](`#release-organization`)
+* [Konflux release organization](`#konflux-release-organization`)

Apply the same correction pattern to the nested entries so each fragment matches the exact heading text.
