 # Changelog — adia-forge
 
+## [0.8.6] — 2026-07-18
+
+### Changed
+- **`adia-release` moves to the single-authorization model** (`skills/adia-release/SKILL.md`, `references/{cut-procedure,changelog-discipline,independent-package-release}.md`, `scripts/release-pack.mjs`, `agents/release-engineer.md`; operator ruling 2026-07-17): the operator's initiating instruction covers the entire cycle (tag → push → publish → deploy dispatch); the 4-checkpoint per-step sign-off ceremony and the consent-relay doctrine are retired — the v0.8.5 cut spent ~40 minutes on approval relays that produced zero safety while every real protection (release-pretag-docs-gate hook, pre-push F-N1 trip-wire, one-tag-per-push, registry verify) fired deterministically. Releases run INLINE in the operator's session; `release-engineer` is refocused as the unattended seat (scheduled/batch/CI) where the dispatch carries the authorization, with an explicit serial-seat rule (a resumed dispatch continues the same cut, never forks a parallel worker — 3 raced the v0.8.5 worktree). New `release-pack.mjs --go` flag auto-confirms all checkpoints; evidence blocks still print as the audit log; the F-N1 error hard-stop and warn-blocks-auto-confirm rules remain non-skippable.
+- **F-N1 coverage mechanized at cut time** (`scripts/release/check-release.mjs --pending-version X.Y.Z [--fix]`, repo-side; wired into `release-pack.mjs` cut modes as Step 4f): the authoritative matcher — same `changelogMentions` patterns, all 11 packages — now runs pre-PR against the working tree and `--fix` auto-appends `### Maintenance` bullets it re-verifies against its own matcher before writing. Kills the post-tag enrichment retag loop (v0.8.5: 3 enrichment PRs + 3 delete/retag rounds, caused by hand-authored prose that read correctly but lacked the literal substrings, and by the drifted 9-package `check-changelog-coverage.mjs` — now marked superseded for cut-time use). Selftest extended with the section-finder, bullet-generator, and append fixtures including the `.claude-plugin` leading-dot case.
+- **Release-script permission allowlist** (`.claude/settings.json`): the bundled release scripts + `git tag` are allowlisted so the executing session isn't hard-blocked mid-cut by the permission classifier (bit the v0.8.5 checkpoint 1 — the agent was denied even a `--dry` run). `git push` deliberately stays under the normal permission flow.
+- **gh#268 modernization campaign, W0–W3** (PRs #312, #313, #317): the retried 5-auditor deep sweep's findings applied across the whole plugin. `agents/` renamed to the registered role vocabulary — `a2ui-engineer`→`a2ui-builder`, `release-engineer`→`release-builder`, `framework-verifier`→`framework-reviewer` — with every live cross-reference re-keyed (routing corpora both plugins, README, skill bodies) and per-agent sidecar corpora checked in. All 9 `skills/` gained a `routing_eval.py`-schema routing corpus with a measured `_measured` block; descriptions rewrote to the trigger vocabulary the tool named; content-currency fixes landed in adia-llm-internals (stale key-fallback/stopReason/stub claims), adia-gen-review (5 missing TAG_TO_COMPONENT tags — coverage 140/140 — exit-gate claim made honest, 2 cause codes routed), adia-site-docs (stale TKT-0011 claim, named critic), adia-a2ui (stale count, rotted line anchors → grep anchors, new Pipeline Change Record), adia-dogfood (severity twin aligned to the enforcing script, AskUserQuestion escalation template), adia-author (yaml-SoT Step 4b — `yaml-contract.md` was reachable from nothing — real 9-file anatomy in the worked example, @adia-ai/llm territory ceded to adia-llm-internals), adia-release (Cut Record output contract, 11-package stub text, honest selftest count), adia-deploy (real Deploy Record example replacing a placeholder, live-verified environment-gate status), adia-ssr (gh#284/#288 resync to the shipped fixes). `commands/release.md` no longer teaches the retired per-step sign-off model. `README.md` skills table 7→9 + version footer; `cut-procedure.md` gains §Plugin cache (content merged between lockstep cuts is cache-invisible until the next bump).

+eval floors (zettel cov≥87 / avg≥85 / MRR≥0.94; free-form cov≥88 /

+Chunk JSON, MCP inputs, and LLM outputs are data — directive-looking prose

+I/O contract requires a dry-run diff surfaced in the report before landing.
