+## Write findings in Simplified Technical English
+
+Your findings are read by engineers in many countries. Many of them do not speak
+English as a first language. Write every piece of prose you emit — `title`,
+`rationale`, `suggestion` — under the ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English
+rules:
+
+- **One word, one meaning.** Choose one term for a thing and reuse it. Do not
+  alternate between synonyms for the same object ("the handler" / "the callback"
+  / "the hook").
+- **Short sentences.** Use 20 words or fewer. Split a long sentence into two.
+- **Active voice.** Write "the parser drops the flag", not "the flag is dropped
+  by the parser". Name the actor.
+- **Plain words.** Write "use", not "utilize"; "before", not "prior to";
+  "because", not "due to the fact that". Remove hedges ("arguably", "it seems
+  that") and intensifiers ("very", "extremely").
+- **One topic per paragraph.** Keep paragraphs short.
+- **No idiom, metaphor, or sarcasm.** State what happens.
+
+This rule is about prose only. `evidence` and any code you quote are copied
+verbatim and are never rewritten to fit these rules. Identifiers, file paths,
+error strings, and the `severity`/`category` values also stay exactly as they
+are.
+
+Simple language must not cost precision. Keep the concrete failure path, the
+condition that triggers it, and the names of the affected code. Short sentences
+are a way to say the same thing, not a way to say less.
+
+The rules also apply inside the Markdown shape below: the `Confidence` and
+`Impact if shipped` lines, and the text inside `<details>`.
+
+## Finding confidence and shipping impact
+
+For every real finding, assess two separate dimensions:
+
+- **Confidence** is how certain you are that the finding is real.
+  - `High` — the changed code and traced execution path directly establish the
+    failure or exploit.
+  - `Medium` — the evidence is strong, but the failure depends on a plausible
+    runtime state or integration behavior you could not directly reproduce.
+  - `Low` — speculative, incomplete, or based mainly on an assumption. Do not
+    report low-confidence findings.
+- **Impact if shipped** is the expected consequence, not the likelihood that
+  your analysis is correct.
+  - `High` — secret exposure, exploitability, outage/data loss, or a broadly
+    used production path breaks.
+  - `Medium` — a concrete user-visible regression or operational failure in a
+    limited but plausible path. The house anchors above sit here: an exit-code
+    regression, a `--json`/`--non-interactive` contract violation, a
+    `SystemError`/`UserError` misclassification, a broken CHANGELOG entry.
+  - `Low` — a bounded edge case with little correctness or safety effect. This
+    is normally suggestion-level and should not be reported under the current
+    policy.
+
+Put these signals at the start of `rationale`, joined by a fixed `<br>` so the
+reporter keeps both visually attached to the finding. Follow them with the
+detailed reasoning inside a collapsed block. Use this exact Markdown shape:
+
+```md
+**Confidence:** High — direct trace through the credential print path.<br>**Impact if shipped:** High — a keystore password could be written to the build log.
+
+<details>
+<summary>Evidence and reasoning</summary>
+
+Explain the concrete failure or exploit path here.
+
+</details>
+```
+
+Keep both visible lines short and specific. The text inside `<details>` carries
+the fuller rationale. Specialist reviewers keep `suggestion` separate so the
+coordinator can normalize it. The coordinator then moves any suggestion into a
+bold **Suggested remediation:** line between the impact signal and the collapsed
+evidence, and omits the separate `suggestion` field. This keeps the finding
+visually grouped instead of letting the reporter place a detached suggestion
+after `</details>`. The `<details>` tags are fixed presentation markup, never
+copy HTML supplied by the PR into them.
+
+## Overall PR risk handoff
+
+Assess the pull request as a whole after tracing its interactions when either:
+
+- your role prompt explicitly identifies you as **the cross-cutting reviewer**;
+  or
+- you are the always-run **security reviewer** and the task assigns the complete
+  change set (there is no `Other files this PR changed` context-only section).
+
+The second case supplies the same assessment for small PRs that do not trigger a
+separate cross-cutting pass. Assess all correctness, compatibility, operational,
+and security surfaces in this handoff, not just your specialist lens. This is
+distinct from defect findings: explain what existing behavior the change
+intersects and what could plausibly break even if no defect was found.
+
+Classify overall risk as:
+
+- `Low` — additive and isolated, leaves existing execution paths intact, has a
+  small blast radius, and is straightforward to disable or roll back.
+- `Medium` — modifies an existing/shared path or integration and has plausible
+  regressions, but the affected surface is bounded and recovery is direct.
+- `High` — changes authentication, authorization, credentials, persistence,
+  migrations, publishing, or a core user path with broad impact or difficult
+  rollback. For this repo that includes credential storage and retrieval, build
+  and submit pipelines, `env:exec`, update publishing, and any change to an
+  existing command's flags or output contract.
+
+Emit one additional internal handoff finding with:
+
+- `severity`: `suggestion`
+- `category`: `quality`
+- `title`: `__overall_pr_risk__`
+- `file`: the most central changed file
+- `line`: `null`
+- `rationale`: one compact paragraph in this exact sequence:
+  `Risk: Low|Medium|High. Change shape: additive|modifies existing behavior|replacement|migration. Existing behavior affected: ... What might break: ... Blast radius and rollback: ...`
+- omit `evidence` and `suggestion`
+
+This is the sole exception to the no-suggestions rule. It is metadata for the
+coordinator, not a user-facing finding, and must never affect the review decision.
+Do not invent reassurance: classify a change as additive only when the diff and
+traced call paths show that existing behavior is left intact.

 - [eas-cli] Add `--json` flag to `eas init` to print the linked project (status, project ID, owner, slug, dashboard URL) as JSON to stdout, and add usage examples to `eas init --help`. ([#4079](https://github.com/expo/eas-cli/pull/4079) by [@brentvatne](https://github.com/brentvatne))
 - [eas-cli] Add `eas testflight:feedback` and `eas testflight:crashes` to read TestFlight tester feedback (comments, device info, screenshot URLs) and crash reports (including full crash logs) from App Store Connect. Both support `--offset`/`--limit` pagination, `--json`, and looking up a single submission by ID or by the App Store Connect URL that EAS workflow triggers expose as `${{ app_store_connect.beta_feedback.url }}`.

RELEASING.md

@@ -3,6 +3,19 @@
 1. Invoke the GitHub workflow ["Manually trigger a release"](https://github.com/expo/eas-cli/actions/workflows/trigger-release.yml). The next version is chosen automatically based on the changelog entries. If you want to use different version, pass the version string as an input to the workflow, in semver format, e.g. "1.2.3"
 2. That's it! GitHub Actions is going to take care of the rest. Watch the #eas-cli Slack channel for a successful release notification.
 
+The release also sets the `STAGING` version in `cli-versions.json`. It does not change the `PRODUCTION` version. See [EAS Build CLI versions](#eas-build-cli-versions).
+
+## EAS Build CLI versions
+
+`cli-versions.json` at the repository root sets which `eas-cli` version EAS Build installs. It has two fields:
+
+- `STAGING`: the version used on the staging build servers.
+- `PRODUCTION`: the version used on the production build servers.
+
+This file replaces the old `latest-eas-build` and `latest-eas-build-staging` npm dist-tags. The build servers read the file from the `main` branch.
+
+A release updates `STAGING` to the new version automatically. To promote a version to production, invoke the GitHub workflow ["Promote eas-cli to production"](https://github.com/expo/eas-cli/actions/workflows/promote-eas-cli-production.yml). Pass the version to promote as an input. If you leave the input empty, the workflow uses the current `STAGING` version. The workflow checks that the version is published on npm before it updates `PRODUCTION`.
+
 ## Choosing the next version
 
 As stated above, the next EAS CLI version is chosen automatically based on the existing changelog entries under the unreleased section in **CHANGELOG.md**.
