Master the Audiobook
Assemble the finished chapters into a release: completeness swept against the manuscript first, the metadata manifest built and verified chapter by chapter, the master assembled through the project's media pipeline with a run log, and the listener-facing description written — the moment the folder of takes becomes a book. Locks the packaging rules FIRST (order, metadata fields, total duration), then the manifest, then the master, then the release copy. Use for mastering an audiobook, packaging the chapters, audiobook release prep, and 'all the chapters are rendered, now what'.
How it runs
| # | Step | Who runs it | What happens |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Sweep for completeness | Developer | chapters on disk checked against the manuscript, rules locked |
| 2 | Build the manifest | Researcher | master/manifest.json: chapter, file, duration, order |
| 3 | Assemble the master | Developer | the chapters concatenated into the master with its log |
| 4 | Write the release copy | Copywriter | listener description and release notes for the finished book |
| 5 | Evaluate | Reviewer | Grade the deliverable against every acceptance criterion. All pass → finish; any fail → loop back and fix the gap. |
| 6 | Finish | Developer | All acceptance criteria met. Stamp a short summary and report DONE. |
