@decidio/sdk 0.5.0 → 0.6.0

package/CHANGELOG.md

@@ -4,6 +4,39 @@ Release notes for the client SDK. The Python package `decidio` ships the same ch
 version (the two are conformance-locked twins). Each entry names what changed, what a reader must do
 on upgrade, and what proved it.
 
+## 0.6.0 — `quickstart --demo`: the whole tour on your machine, no account
+
+An uninvited developer could not run the tour at all: a workspace needs an invite (no open signup, by ruling). A
+hosted sandbox was designed, red-teamed by the privacy council (BLOCK as written; eight design-level highs) and then
+costed against the alternatives: the cheapest, least-maintenance path for a stranger's first two minutes is a LOCAL
+demo with a hosted page for the phone moment. Founder ruling 2026-09-05.
+
+- **`npx @decidio/sdk quickstart --demo`** runs the SAME tour code against an in-process stand-in of the Decidio API
+  on 127.0.0.1 (`demo-gate.ts`, shipped in this package): register, mint, gate, route, approve or reject, execute
+  once, and a REAL Ed25519 receipt signed by a key generated for the run — verifiable offline with the shipped
+  verifier, and provably NOT the hosted issuer's (pinning it to the hosted DID fails). Nothing hosted, no account, no
+  workspace: the tour runs in a temporary folder and leaves exactly one file behind, the receipt (never over an
+  existing one). Its content says `recordSeries: local-demo`.
+- **The web and phone doors still work.** The stand-in asks a hosted RELAY (`POST /demo/relay`) for a code, a link to
+  the demo decision page (`app.decidioai.com/demo/<code>`) and a QR; the page shows the product's decision surface for
+  the tour's fixed scenario and writes one word — approve or reject — which the stand-in reads while the tour waits.
+  The relay holds no account, no record and no personal data; a code lives ten minutes, takes one verdict, and every
+  failure answers with one shape. Offline (relay unreachable) the tour is terminal-only and says so.
+- **Honesty is asserted, not hoped:** the frames say LOCAL DEMO; ④ says the issuer is a key this demo generated and
+  where real tours pin theirs; the smoke plants the forbidden phrases ("PINNED to your workspace issuer", "hosted
+  synthetic sandbox", "your trust anchor") and asserts the directory diff is the receipt alone; a decision made on the
+  page reaches the terminal with no keystroke. The sign-in dead end now offers `--demo`.
+- **On a phone the demo IS the phone app's screen.** A phone that opens the demo link (the QR, or the link on a phone)
+  lands on the phone build's own decision screen — the same Detail the installed app renders, with Approve and Reject
+  where they always are — not the desktop panel squeezed into a phone viewport (founder UAT round 2). It holds no
+  session and says LOCAL DEMO in one line; the decided moment says the terminal seals. Host-side only: nothing in this
+  package changed for it.
+- **The demo leaves your sign-in alone.** `quickstart --demo` never signs in, so its cleanup no longer ends a stored
+  sign-in that happens to be on the computer (it did, in the founder's UAT; the smoke now plants one and asserts it
+  survives, silently).
+- TypeScript CLI first — `npx @decidio/sdk quickstart` is where an uninvited developer arrives; the Python twin gains
+  `--demo` when asked for (the version bump is in lockstep).

 - `quickstart cleanup` — revoke the tour's token and delete its local credentials. What stays, honestly: sealed records (permanent by design) and the agent's registration row (inert without key or token; server-side deregistration is on the roadmap) Also ends the stored sign-in.
 - **Update check.** Network commands ask the public npm registry once a day whether a newer version exists; if so, an interactive run asks `Upgrade now? [y/n]` first (`y` upgrades the way you installed - `npm i @decidio/sdk@latest` in the project for a local install, `-g` for a global one, and under `npx` it prints the `@latest` form - then re-runs your command once; `n` exits), a headless run prints the notice and continues (`DECIDIO_REQUIRE_LATEST=1` makes it exit). `DECIDIO_NO_UPDATE_CHECK=1` skips it. Nothing is sent to Decidio; `verify` never checks.
 - **The token recovery journal** (`.decidio-token-journal`, owner-only, gitignored; ids and timestamps, never a token value; append-only by the CLI's behaviour — not OS-enforced or tamper-evident). One JSON row per event: `minted` (a token was issued, written BEFORE its credential file), `retired how=persisted` (the credential file now holds it - the token is live and that file is its handle; not revoked), `retired how=revoked` (revoked server-side), `probe` (a durability check). `doctor` names rows still outstanding; `quickstart cleanup` sweeps them.
+- `quickstart --demo` — the same tour with no account: an in-process stand-in of the API on 127.0.0.1 (shipped in this package) answers every door, a key generated for the run signs a real receipt (its content says `local-demo`; pinning it to the hosted issuer fails), and the web/phone door is a hosted demo decision page reached through a one-word relay (no account, no record, ten minutes). Your folder gains exactly one file, the receipt. Offline, the tour is terminal-only and says so.
 - `quickstart --phone web` — the QR at the human step opens the phone web rendering even when the Decidio app is installed (by default it opens the app when there is one).
 - `login [email]` / `logout` — sign in ONCE (the CLI emails you a link; you paste it) and forget that sign-in on this computer (the session token itself stays valid until it expires (up to 30 days) — there is no server-side revocation yet). The session is stored in your user profile, owner-only, bound to the terminal window that created it, for 30 days; `DECIDIO_SESSION_TOKEN` in the environment outranks it (headless shells).
 - `dev [--target URL] [--port N]` — local relay for the resume webhook (operator setups)
