# Publishing & Review

> Publish your Expert to the marketplace — first publish, version updates, and the review process

Once your Expert is configured and priced, you can submit it for publishing. All Experts must pass platform review before going live on the marketplace.

***

## Publishing Flow Overview

```
Draft Editing → Submit for Review → Platform Review → Approved → Live on Marketplace
                                                    → Rejected → Modify and Resubmit
```

<Note>
  The review mechanism ensures the quality and compliance of Experts in the marketplace. It's not a judgment of you — it's about helping users trust every Expert they find.
</Note>

***

## First Publish

<Steps>
  <Step title="Confirm Configuration is Complete">
    Check in Studio: name, description, avatar, category, skills, opening message, example conversations, pricing — all key items are filled in.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Test Conversations">
    Have a few rounds of conversation with your Expert in Studio to verify its response quality and tool usage meet expectations.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click 'Publish'">
    Once confirmed, click the publish button at the top of Studio. The system will package the current configuration as a review version.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Wait for Review">
    The platform team will review your Expert. You'll be notified via in-app message whether it's approved or rejected.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Go Live on Marketplace">
    After review approval, your Expert immediately appears in the marketplace. Users can discover, try, and purchase it.
  </Step>
</Steps>

***

## Version Updates (Published Experts)

After your Expert is already live on the marketplace, you'll likely want to continuously improve it. Version updates use a "dual-track mechanism" to ensure uninterrupted user experience:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Save Changes as Draft">
    Edit freely in Studio. Saved changes only affect your draft, not the live version. Users always see the most recently approved version.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Submit New Version">
    When edits are complete, click "Publish New Version." The system creates a new review request.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Old Version Continues Serving">
    During review, your Expert's old version stays online and users continue using it normally. No "under maintenance" downtime.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review Approved, New Version Replaces Old">
    Once the new version passes review, it automatically replaces the old one. The switch is transparent to users.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  This "dual-track" design means you can iterate boldly — even if review doesn't pass, it won't affect the current live version.
</Tip>

## Review Standards

The review team primarily evaluates:

| Dimension               | Focus Areas                                                             |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Content Compliance      | No violations, no sensitive content, complies with laws and regulations |
| Functional Completeness | Expert can properly perform its described functions                     |
| Quality Standards       | Response quality is reasonable, not spam or low-quality filler          |
| Information Accuracy    | Name and description match actual capabilities, no misleading claims    |
| Category Accuracy       | Selected category matches the Expert's actual domain                    |

<Warning>
  Don't promise things in your description that your Expert can't deliver. Over-promotion will result in review rejection.
</Warning>

## Handling Review Results

### Approved

Congratulations! Your Expert is live. You'll receive an in-app notification (and SMS if configured).

### Rejected

You'll receive a notification with the rejection reason. After making modifications based on feedback, you have two options:

<Accordion title="Re-edit and Resubmit">
  After rejection, you can choose "Re-edit" — the system writes the submitted content back to draft, allowing you to modify from there and resubmit for review.
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="Withdraw Submission">
  If you're still in review but want to make changes, you can "Withdraw" the submission before review is complete. The content returns to draft state for further editing.
</Accordion>

***

## Version Management

Each review approval automatically creates a version record (Release):

* Version numbers auto-increment
* Each version contains a complete configuration snapshot
* You can view version history in Studio
* If a new version has issues, the platform can roll back to the previous version

***

## Delisting and Relisting

Published Experts can be voluntarily delisted by you:

* Delisted Experts no longer appear in the marketplace
* Existing purchasers' entitlements are not affected
* Delisted Experts can be resubmitted for review and relisted at any time

<Note>
  If your Expert is delisted by the platform for violations (not voluntarily by you), you'll need to make modifications based on the provided reasons before resubmitting.
</Note>
