 All contributions should go through a pull request. PRs against `main` automatically trigger GitHub Actions CI, which runs `R CMD check` (including the full test suite) on Ubuntu with both R-release and R-devel. Snapshot tests are included in this CI run, so even if you can't run them locally, CI will catch any regressions.
 
 ### CRAN Submissions
-The test suite (snapshot SVGs in particular) adds significant size to the installed package. Tests are only intended to run locally and on CI — not on CRAN. Before a CRAN submission, uncomment the `inst/tinytest/` line in `.Rbuildignore` to exclude the test directory from the built tarball. Remember to re-comment it after submission so that CI continues to pick up the tests.

+**Pre-submission checklist:**
+1. Create a new branch `cran_v<x.x.x>` from main
+2. Verify version is updated and aligned in both `DESCRIPTION` and `NEWS.md`
+3. Verify `Date` field in `DESCRIPTION` matches the submission date
+4. Update `cran-comments.md` with new version and release type
+5. Open a PR from the branch to main
+6. Verify CI passes on the PR
+7. Run reverse dependency checks: push a `revdep-v<x.x.x>` branch to trigger the revdep workflow
+8. Uncomment the `inst/tinytest/` line in `.Rbuildignore` to exclude tests from tarball
+9. Run `devtools::check_win_devel()` and wait for results
+10. Run `R CMD check --as-cran` locally
+11. Fix any issues / notes and update cran-comments.md as necessary
+12. Submit to CRAN
+
+**Post-acceptance:**
+1. Re-comment the `inst/tinytest/` line in `.Rbuildignore` and push to PR so CI continues to pick up tests
+2. Merge the PR to main
+3. Create a new GitHub release tagged `v<x.x.x>`
