 # Changelog
 
+## [0.1.0-beta.3] - 2026-10-13
+
+### Changed
+- F-067: every L3 unit now keeps a verbatim, append-only request record `audit/requests/REQUEST_course_<slug>.md`, started before the Vision Gate: the owner's opening words and every later statement that settles something (answers, approvals, costs, rulings). Artifacts cite its entries instead of paraphrasing; the shared `review.md` asks for the record and makes an owner statement with no resolving entry a finding. Secrets, personal data and confidential third-party or employer information are redacted.

 `course-creator` helps an AI agent create a course for a defined learner. It maps what the learner already knows, orders concepts by prerequisite, writes explanations in progressive modules, and links factual statements to reopenable sources. Independent fresh learner agents can expose confusing steps; their results are diagnostic. The course is labeled **efficacy not verified** until enough evidence from real learners supports a narrower claim.
 
-The package is the fourth lens of the Agentic SDLC family. It uses the shared `ai_docs/` project memory and governance. Version 0.1.0-beta.2 supports Standalone mode. This is an experimental beta: the authoring method and artifact contracts may change; human learning efficacy has not been established. Its course artifacts remain readable without the skill.

This is an experimental beta: the authoring method and artifact contracts may change; human learning efficacy has not been established. Its course artifacts remain readable without the skill.

 ## Canonical analysis — `solutions/ANALYSIS_course_<slug>.md`
 
 The core uses this file for workstream state and course risk. It is the only authority for UC, IC flow and risk IDs. The details below cite these IDs. The Interface Contract is due when an actor acts on or perceives a surface: for a course, the learner necessarily does. Design and code review use `review.md`; log them in `audit/reviews/REVIEW_LOG.md`. If reviewer access is permission-gated, record `gated, declined`, `gated, unattended` or `gated, pre-empted` truthfully and use the next available rung rather than claiming independence.
