docs/ci/release-validation.md was 43,706 characters. Split it into five children under docs/ci/release-validation/ and keep the parent as an index, matching the docs/ci/scope-and-routing/ split already on main. Content-preserving: the five child bodies concatenate byte-for-byte with the original frontmatter and Related section back to the original file (sha256 68779512a6bb5f6d24b36ff67c4d057c233f551db1f7af2d40ba690c624dbf26). Every pre-split heading id is stubbed on the index so existing links and the six docs.json redirects into /ci/release-validation#... keep resolving. Co-authored-by: Vincent Koc <vincent@openclaw.org>

The separate Plugin Prerelease workflow, its batching limits, and when it runs. Part of the Release validation workflows index.
Plugin Prerelease
Plugin batch execution preserves existing process limits when the only forwarded options are numeric --retry and exact-file --exclude selections. Codex retains at most 12 files per sequential process, including release runs with those options. Watch mode, suite-wide bail or sharding, reports, broad exclusion patterns, and other options retain their single-process semantics.
Plugin Prerelease is more expensive product/package coverage, so it is a separate workflow dispatched by Full Release Validation or by an explicit operator. Normal pull requests, main pushes, and standalone manual CI dispatches keep that suite off. It balances non-Telegram bundled plugin tests across eight generic extension workers; those jobs run up to two plugin config groups at a time with one Vitest worker per group and a larger Node heap. Telegram runs in dedicated shards of at most ten test files, preserving one-file Vitest processes while scheduling two processes concurrently. The combined extension matrix is capped at 12 concurrent jobs. The release-only Docker prerelease path (enabled by the full_release_validation input) batches targeted Docker lanes in groups of four to avoid reserving dozens of runners for one-to-three-minute jobs. The workflow also uploads an informational plugin-inspector-advisory artifact from @openclaw/plugin-inspector; inspector findings are triage input and do not change the blocking Plugin Prerelease gate.
