Before the suite's first release candidates (v27.1-rc.1) go out: a pre-release was announced as "released" and "is out".

Now a release with prerelease: true is:

titled <repo> <tag> release candidate;
opened with "is a release candidate: a pre-release for testing, not yet the release. latest and a plain install stay where they are.";
posted to Discord as **<repo> <tag>** release candidate.

A final release is announced exactly as before. I ran announce.sh against a fake curl for both cases and checked the forum payload and the Discord message.

Each repo pins this action by SHA, so the inbuxa repos get a pin bump next.

discourse-release: call a pre-release a release candidate 7dc4842d0d

A pre-release (the suite's v27.1-rc.N tags) was announced as "released"
and "is out". It is now titled "<repo> <tag> release candidate", its first
line says it is a pre-release for testing that leaves latest and a plain
install where they are, and the Discord line says "release candidate".
A final release is announced exactly as before.
