What would you consider to be a satisfactory outcome for Operation Epic Fury?

I'll admit it, I'm not exactly sure what the expectations are for Operation Epic Fury. I've listened to several briefings on Operation Epic Fury and I'm still not sure what will signal the end of military engagement.
Is it severe degradation of Iran's military capabilities?
Is it regime change?
Is it to pressure Iran into surrendering all ambitions for a nuclear weapon?
Is it to force Iran to cease all support for their various terrorist proxies?
Is it all the above?

Cut off oil supply from Iran to China?
Bring on Armageddon?

I believe this is what it is although it's not being publicly said.

US/Israel have destroyed the leadership of the Islamic Republic. What we have now is a decentralized resistance which needs to be stamped out by the Iranian people with continued support from US/Israel Air superiority.
If the guy is Pahlavi, now is his time to strike with an organized ground force. He needs to take the stage and show US/Israel that he is the guy. (which i think they already know).
The next few weeks should be a coordinated effort by Pahlavi (or whoever is taking this role of leader) and US/Israel to finish the job.

Rename the country to Persia, wipe out all of the clerics, and restore the monarchy.

A new government that agrees to end the pursuit of nuclear weapons and agrees to full IAEA inspections to ensure such agreement. Second, public declaration of removal of support for terrorist groups, specifically the Houthis and Hezbollah.
I don’t really care about anything else. I don’t care if they become a democracy or not. And I don’t want their military degraded to nothing. Power vacuums in the Middle East are bad events.

Favorable regime change, anything less is failure.
All their oil are belong to us.
Free the women.

Oh, and that this op ends in a month or two. Anything that remotely resembles a nation building exercise is a failure.

More Persian women and less burkas

If you don’t define the objectives clearly, then you cannot measure success against the objectives.

This is like betting it all on red. The chances of favorable regime change are very low.

A month of bombing their shite back into the Stone Age - then leave and let them figure it out

The minimum,IMO:
- At least a decade-long setback of Iran's capabilities (and nuclear ambitions) if the regime reorganizes
- A legitimate opportunity for Iranians to wrestle control of their country and without short-sighted western heavy handedness on how (ie, backing a Kurdish play as the tip of the spear).

This may be the point. Strategic ambiguity, but for the American population.
Because Trump can change his mind at any time.

Define favorable though
Honestly, some post-USSR-style corruption with IRGC leaders as mini-oligarchs in a stable and functioning state that sees grudging cooperation with the US as their best ticket for the coming decades is a win, IMO.
