 MODEL: GPT-5.4
 REASONING: high
 
 COMMAND:
-Create `BUILD_PR_LEVEL_10_26_LEVEL_10_CLOSEOUT_SAMPLE_TOOL_NORMALIZATION_AND_SHARED_STRATEGY` as the final combined Level 10 closeout PR.
-
-Goal:
-Finish Level 10 with the fewest additional PRs by combining the remaining open section-10 work into one clean closeout.
-
-Execute all of the following:
-
-1. Level 10 closeout and handoff
-   - validate Level 10 asset/data policy work across:
-     - Asteroids
-     - games/_template
-     - at least one sample
-     - at least one tool demo path
-   - summarize results in the PR outputs
-
-2. Sample asset ownership normalization
-   - normalize sample asset ownership using the same ownership policy used for games
-   - keep ownership local unless explicitly promoted
-   - reduce ambiguous or duplicated sample asset placement where appropriate
-   - keep changes surgical
-
-3. Tool demo asset ownership normalization
-   - normalize tool demo/demo-sample asset ownership under the same policy
-   - keep demo assets local unless explicitly promoted
-   - reduce ambiguous ownership and unnecessary duplication
-   - preserve current tool-folder conventions
-
-4. Promotion criteria enforcement
-   - document and enforce explicit criteria for promoting an asset to shared status
-   - no silent or convenience-based sharing
-
-5. Final shared-asset strategy decision
-   - explicitly finalize the top-level shared asset strategy if needed
-   - if not needed, document local-first ownership with promotion-by-rule only
-   - make this final enough to close the roadmap item
-
-6. Asset duplication reduction
-   - reduce clearly unnecessary duplication in the areas touched above
-   - do not perform repo-wide churn
-   - prefer targeted corrections
-
-7. Roadmap handling
-   - restore the correct full `docs/dev/roadmaps/MASTER_ROADMAP_HIGH_LEVEL.md` from git history if it is not currently the full version
-   - do NOT rewrite roadmap text
-   - after validation, update status markers only for the section-10 items that are truly complete
-
-8. Final validation
-   - confirm whether all remaining section-10 items are now done
-   - if any cannot truthfully be marked done, say so explicitly and leave only that item open
-
-9. Final packaging step is REQUIRED
-   - package ALL changed files into this exact repo-structured ZIP:
-     `<project folder>/tmp/BUILD_PR_LEVEL_10_26_LEVEL_10_CLOSEOUT_SAMPLE_TOOL_NORMALIZATION_AND_SHARED_STRATEGY.zip`
-
-Hard rules:
-- fewer PRs is the priority, so combine remaining Level 10 work here
-- keep changes surgical but sufficient to truly close Level 10 if validation supports it
-- no unrelated repo changes
-- no missing ZIP

+# BUILD_PR_LEVEL_11_1_POST_LEVEL_10_HANDOFF_AND_ROADMAP_RULE_CLEANUP
+
+## Purpose
+Start Level 11 and clean up roadmap misuse of rules vs tasks.
+
+## Scope
+
+### A. Level 11 handoff start
+- confirm Level 10 complete
+- establish next phase starting point
+
+### B. Roadmap cleanup (rules vs tasks)
+- remove Productization Rule section from roadmap
+- ensure no rules use [ ] format
+
+### C. Instruction migration
+- move Productization Rule into PROJECT_INSTRUCTIONS.md
+
+## Rules
+- roadmap: status only
+- instructions: no checkboxes
+
+## Packaging
+<project folder>/tmp/BUILD_PR_LEVEL_11_1_POST_LEVEL_10_HANDOFF_AND_ROADMAP_RULE_CLEANUP.zip
+
+## Implementation Delta
+- Removed the roadmap checkbox block under `## 11. Productization & Distribution`:
+  - `### Productization Rule`
+  - its two checkbox bullets
+- Added productization guidance to `docs/dev/PROJECT_INSTRUCTIONS.md` as requested:
+  - `## Productization Rules`
+  - `- Do not create standalone showcase tracks in future roadmaps`
+  - `- Fold showcase importance into the main feature or sample title when needed`
+
+## Level 10 Completion Check
+- Confirmed section `## 10. Assets & Data Policy` is fully complete (`[x]` on all seven items).
+- No additional status-marker changes were needed for Level 10.
+
+## Validation Notes
+- Roadmap text was not rewritten.
+- No new roadmap sections were added.
+- No code files were modified.
