Document the donor stewardship path so the release system can enforce it.

The docs route explains why the plugin exists, how the public control plane is shaped, and where the machine-readable stewardship snapshot fits into the broader Kinetic Gain stack.

Lead recommendation

Stewardship-safe donor posture
Escalate the major-donor renewal lane now: acknowledgment proof, pledge follow-up, and executive handoff notes are still split across three tools and the next board-touch window is already at risk.

Plugin layer

WordPress stewardship hooks

The plugin demonstrates how reviewed donor-stewardship fragments can be exposed through a shortcode and REST endpoint without burying them inside theme-only settings.

  • Shortcode output keeps stewardship payloads readable to admins and reviewers.
  • REST route gives external systems one canonical donor-stewardship anchor.

Operator priorities

This repo treats donor stewardship governance as a release system, not a hidden CRM task.

  • Keep donor follow-up, acknowledgment promises, and pledge risk in the same operator lane.
  • Expose stale stewardship packets before finance, development, or executive teams discover them after a missed touchpoint.
  • Make acknowledgment evidence and donor history point at the same canonical record before another campaign launches.
  • Turn donor stewardship governance into a visible operating system instead of scattered CRM reminders and spreadsheet residue.
