Improve — make it easier to accept
+Before I create the v2.1.0 tag, make it easy for product and release to approve: surface the exact commit hash, include the top three user-facing changes from RELEASE_NOTES.md, list any commits after the tag candidate that should block the tag, and warn if build artifacts differ from the last tagged release.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment
+I prepared a release and I'm unsure which commit to tag
I have the release candidate on main but there were three small merges today and I can't tell which commit is the right one to mark v2.1.0. The release lead, Priya, expects the tag by Friday and will cut binaries from that tag. I'm afraid tagging the wrong commit will force another rebuild. Which commit should I tag and how do I be certain it's the correct one before pushing the tag to origin?

Become — change the pattern
+We keep creating lightweight tags that confuse downstream CI
Every release we end up with multiple tags and ambiguous versions that the build team misuses. This wastes time and causes incorrect artifacts to be shipped. Where are our habits failing around tag naming and timing, and what concrete rules should we adopt so tags reliably represent released binaries and are trusted by the release engineers?
