 ## Epic alignment
 - **Epic 11 – Notifications Studio:** notifications workspace, preview tooling, immutable delivery ledger, throttling/digest controls, and forthcoming correlation/simulation features.
+
+## Implementation Status
+
+### Delivery Phases
+- **Phase 1 – Core rules engine & delivery ledger:** Implement rules/channels schema, event ingestion, rule evaluation, idempotent deliveries, audit logging
+- **Phase 2 – Connectors & rendering:** Ship Slack/Teams/Email/Webhook connectors, template rendering, localization, throttling, retries, secret referencing
+- **Phase 3 – Console & CLI authoring:** Provide UI/CLI for rule authoring, previews, channel health, delivery browsing, digests, test sends
+- **Phase 4 – Governance & observability:** Add approvals, RBAC, tenant quotas, metrics/logs/traces, dashboards, alerts, runbooks
+- **Phase 5 – Offline & compliance:** Produce Offline Kit bundles (rules/channels/deploy scripts), signed exports, retention policies, auditing
+
+### Acceptance Criteria
+- Rules evaluate deterministically per event; deliveries idempotent with audit trail and DSSE signatures
+- Channel connectors support retries, rate limits, health checks, previews; secrets referenced securely
+- Console/CLI support rule creation, testing, digests, delivery browsing, export/import workflows
+- Observability dashboards track delivery health; alerts fire for sustained failures or backlog; runbooks cover remediation
+- Offline Kit bundle contains configs, rules, digests, deployment scripts for air-gapped installs
+- Notify respects tenancy and RBAC; governance (approvals, change log) enforced for high-impact rules
+
+### Key Risks & Mitigations
+- **Notification storms:** Throttling, digests, dedupe windows, preview/test gating
+- **Secret compromise:** Secret references only, rotation workflows, audit logging
+- **Connector API changes:** Versioned adapter layer, nightly health checks, fallback channels
+- **Noise vs signal:** Simulation previews, metrics, rule scoring, recommended defaults
+- **Offline parity:** Export/import of rules, connectors, digests with signed manifests
+
+### Current Phase Progress
+- Phase 1: Core rules engine mostly complete; template dispatch/rendering in progress
+- Phase 2: Connector and rendering work not yet started; depends on Phase 1 completion
+- Phase 3: Console/CLI authoring work not started; depends on Phase 2 completion
+- Phase 4: Core observability complete; governance and risk notifications blocked on upstream dependencies
+- Phase 5: Offline basics complete; tenancy work blocked on upstream Sprint 0172
