Comment thread

**PR Tag**:
The identifier derived from a pull request context and used as an optional suffix in a Release Tag.
_Avoid_: branch name, build number

**Stable Release**:
A GitHub Release created from `main` that represents a non-prerelease publication event.
_Avoid_: production release, final publish

**Pre-release**:
A GitHub Release created from a pull request run and explicitly marked as prerelease.
_Avoid_: draft release, beta by default

**Package Version Set**:
The set of package name/version pairs published in one Release Run.
_Avoid_: changelog, artifact list

**Changelog Link**:
A navigable reference from the GitHub Release body to package changelog entries relevant to the Release Run.
