docs: release/consuming/engineering-notes guides + ADRs; refresh stale docs - #96
Merged
Conversation
Reflect the completed roadmap and the new release pipeline into the docs, and capture decisions and conventions that previously lived only in code and commit history. New docs: - docs/releasing.md — versioning posture (semver, pre-1.0) and how a release is cut (push a v* tag → GoReleaser), plus the pipeline-maintenance constraints (the ~> v2 pin and modern ids/formats fields, goreleaser-action@v7 / Node 24, validating config with `goreleaser check`). - docs/consuming.md — using the CLIs from scripts/agents: install from a release (with checksum verification), the verbatim-JSON output contract, exit-code branching, --all/result_truncated handling, and non-interactive use. - docs/engineering-notes.md — contributor conventions and gotchas: validate-before-auth ordering, the nil-body-marshals-"null" trap, the reusable-helper inventory, the destructive-verb rule, and local gates. - docs/adr/ — six ADRs (per-category exit codes [D1], the shared foundation and what is deliberately not shared [D2], destructive verbs require --yes [D3], the mixed-version Confluence client, keychain-first token storage, and verbatim JSON / no fake parity) plus an index. Refreshed: - command-contract.md — replaced the stale phase-by-phase Scope intro with a capability-organized summary + capability matrix; expanded `version`. - README.md — corrected the per-CLI status bullets (conf delete/ancestors/ versions/blogpost, bb write parity, jira attachments), added install-from- release, refreshed the living-docs list. - docs/README.md, AGENTS.md, CONTRIBUTING.md — indexed the new docs, extended the read-order, and added the --yes / validate-before-auth invariants and the docs-check / releasing pointers.

Acts on the documentation-gap reflection: documents the new release pipeline, adds consumer- and contributor-facing guides, captures standing decisions as ADRs, and refreshes the docs that had drifted as the roadmap completed.
New docs
docs/releasing.md— versioning posture (semver, pre-1.0) and how to cut a release (push av*tag → GoReleaser). Records the non-obvious pipeline constraints: the~> v2pin + modernids/formatsarchive fields (don't downgrade),goreleaser-action@v7/Node 24, and validating config withgoreleaser check.docs/consuming.md— using the CLIs from scripts/agents: install from a release (with checksum verification), the verbatim-JSON output contract, exit-code branching (with acase $?example),--all/result_truncated, and non-interactive use.docs/engineering-notes.md— the conventions/gotchas that lived only in code and review history: validate-before-auth ordering, the nil-body marshals"null"trap, the reusable-helper inventory, the destructive-verb rule, and the local gates.docs/adr/— six ADRs + index: 0001 per-category exit codes (D1), 0002 shared foundation & deliberately-not-shared (D2), 0003 destructive verbs require--yes(D3), 0004 mixed-version Confluence client, 0005 keychain-first token storage, 0006 verbatim JSON & no fake parity.Refreshed
command-contract.md— replaced the stale phase-by-phase Scope intro (it stopped at Phase 8) with a capability-organized summary + a capability matrix; expanded theversionsection with the JSON shape.README.md— corrected the per-CLI status bullets (conf delete/ancestors/versions/blogpost, bb write parity, jira attachments), added an install-from-release section, refreshed the living-docs list.docs/README.md,AGENTS.md,CONTRIBUTING.md— indexed the new docs, extended the read-order, and added the--yes/validate-before-auth invariants plus thedocs-check/releasing pointers.Validation
make check+make docs-checkgreen.codexrabbit-code-reviewer(verdict: correct); two minor wording findings addressed.No code changes.
