The stable cut already creates the draft on the claim ref before it
dispatches the gate, but the output pointed at releases/tag/<claim> and
then at releases/tag/v<version> "when it is green". GitHub serves a draft
only at an untagged-* URL, so neither link showed it. Operators read that
as "the draft appears after the build".
Take the URL gh release create prints (the release's html_url) and print
it up front, with a note that notes edited during the build survive:
edit_draft_release keeps the body and strips only the warning fence. The
v<version> URL stays, labelled as where the release lives once published.
The canary resume path had the same broken releases/tag/<tag> link; it
now uses the create output or the url field of gh release view.
