# V2 Content Calendar Management

This runbook covers `TODOS.phase-72.72.12.2.13`: a content calendar management
tool to plan and schedule seasons, events, and patches months in advance.

The operator surface is `apps/v2/web/live-service/content-calendar/`. Its
contract is
`V2/ue/Content/V2/LiveOps/ContentCalendarManagement_V2_Contract.json`, the
focused gate is `V2/ue/Tools/check-v2-content-calendar-management.py`, and the
Playwright coverage is `apps/v2/web/e2e/v2-web-content-calendar.spec.ts`.

## Runtime Surface

The management tool loads `content-calendar.json` and exposes:

- a forward plan window of at least six months
- scheduled seasons, events, and patches
- readiness states for draft, planned, approved, and locked work
- filters for content type, readiness, search, and conflicts-only review
- a selected-plan detail inspector
- active schedule conflict review

The route is:

- `/live-service/content-calendar/`

The manifest includes item ownership, region, lead time, milestones,
dependencies, summaries, and conflict resolution notes. Operators use it to keep
season starts, live events, and patch windows aligned before release work
reaches certification.

## Operator Flow

1. Review the eight-month planning window for upcoming seasons, events, and
   patches.
2. Filter by content type or readiness to inspect draft, planned, approved, and
   locked work.
3. Use conflicts-only mode to isolate schedule risks.
4. Select an item to inspect owner, lead time, milestone, dependency, and window
   details.
5. Resolve conflict notes before locking a patch or event window.
