-## [Unreleased]
+## [1.0.0-beta.10] - 2026-09-23
+
+- Pin the public UDL dependency to 4.7.0 so ADL and HSX resolve the same contract version.
+
+## [1.0.0-beta.9] - 2026-09-22
+
+- Regenerated `spec/manifest.schema.json`: optional `label` on the shapes that UDL 4.6.0 labels, which beta.8 shipped without.
+
+## [1.0.0-beta.8] - 2026-09-21
+
+- Regenerated `spec/manifest.schema.json`: `sensitive` on field shapes and `targetFamily` on references, which beta.7 shipped without.
+
+## [1.0.0-beta.7] - 2026-09-21
+
+- Added optional `subjectRequirements` on operation bindings: subject fields an action collects before dispatch.
+- Added `BoundaryInstruction`, `BoundaryObservation`, `BoundaryOutcome` and `BoundaryAdapter`.
+- Replaced bank profiles and certification with generic binding conformance.
+- Removed the fictional bank example and its status, rail and calendar vocabulary.
+
+## [1.0.0-beta.6] - 2026-09-20
+
+- Republished so the package cites a platform commit that survives the 2026-09-19 history rewrite. No vocabulary or conformance change.
+
+## [1.0.0-beta.5] - 2026-09-18
+
+- Licensed under the Hyperscale Intellectual Property and Copyright License 1.0 (`LicenseRef-Hyperscale-IPCL-1.0`), Tier 2 (Source Available). The AGPL-3.0-only grant ends with this release; earlier versions keep it. `LICENSE.md` and `NOTICE.md` replace the previous license, licensing and trademark files; trademark and conformance rules now live in the license. No vocabulary or conformance change.

+# Hyperscale Intellectual Property and Copyright License
+
+Version 1.0, effective 18 September 2026. This text is under review by
+Hyperscale LLC's counsel. Until a revised version replaces it, it states the
+terms on which Hyperscale makes the Software available.
+
+SPDX identifier: `LicenseRef-Hyperscale-IPCL-1.0`
+
+Copyright (c) 2026 Hyperscale LLC. All rights reserved.
+
+This is not an open source license. The Software is proprietary. Hyperscale
+publishes some of it so that you can read it, learn it, build on the Hyperscale
+platform with it, and verify what Hyperscale runs. Publishing is not a gift of
+rights. Every right not written in this License stays with Hyperscale.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Acceptance
+
+By accessing, viewing, downloading, cloning, installing, copying, compiling,
+running, or otherwise using any part of the Software, you accept this License.
+If you do not accept it, do none of those things. If you act for an
+organisation, you confirm you have authority to bind it, and "you" means that
+organisation and every person acting for it.
+
+## 2. Definitions
+
+"Hyperscale" means Hyperscale LLC, a limited liability company organised under
+the laws of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and its successors and assigns.
+
+"Software" means every work Hyperscale distributes under this License, in any
+form: source code, compiled or bundled code, schemas, grammars, standard
+libraries, headers, example programs, fixtures, conformance cases, generated
+artifacts, documentation, designs, images, and data files, and every update,
+version, or part of any of them.
+
+"Specification" means the parts of the Software that Hyperscale designates as a
+Specification in the applicable Notice: a schema, grammar, wire format,
+manifest format, vocabulary, or interface description, together with its
+documentation and published example inputs and outputs.
+
+"Hyperscale Platform" means the products and services Hyperscale offers or
+operates, in any form and under any name, including Hyperscale Arc, Architect,
+Composer, the Hyperscale engine, portals, registries, hosted compilers, hosted
+MCP servers, generated SDKs, and every successor product.
+
+"Notice" means the file named `NOTICE` or `NOTICE.md`, or the license
+statement in a package manifest, that accompanies a copy of the Software and
+states which Tier under section 4 applies to it.
+
+"Tier" means one of the three permission levels in section 4.
+
+"Derivative Work" means any work that is based on, incorporates, translates,
+adapts, ports, reimplements, transforms, or is derived from the Software or any
+part of it, in any language or form, including a work produced by studying the
+Software and then writing new code that performs the same function.
+
+"Competing Product" means any product, service, library, platform, or tool,
+whether or not sold, that performs or is offered as performing substantially the
+same function as the Hyperscale Platform or any part of it, including: a
+language, compiler, or checker for financial programs; an engine, runtime, or
+ledger that executes financial product definitions; a framework for declaring,
+conforming, or operating bank or payment provider adapters; a service that
+generates APIs, SDKs, or agent tools from a financial product definition; or a
+hosted or embedded version of any of those. A product you build on the
+Hyperscale Platform for your own customers is not a Competing Product.
+
+"Hosted Use" means making the functionality of the Software available to any
+third party over a network, whether as a service, an API, an agent tool, an
+embedded feature, or otherwise.
+
+"Contribution" means any work of authorship you intentionally submit to
+Hyperscale for inclusion in the Software, by any means, unless you clearly mark
+it "not a contribution".
+
+"Marks" means the names, logos, and trade dress of Hyperscale and its products,
+including "Hyperscale", "Hyperscale Arc", "HSX", "UDL", "ADL", "Architect",
+"Composer", the `hyperscale0` GitHub organisation, the `@hyperscale0` npm
+scope, and every confusingly similar name or sign.
+
+"Confidential Material" means Software distributed under Tier 3, and any part
+of the Software that Hyperscale has not made publicly available.
+
+## 3. Ownership
+
+Hyperscale owns all right, title, and interest in the Software, the
+Specifications, the Marks, and every Derivative Work Hyperscale creates,
+including all copyright, patent, trade secret, design, database, and moral
+rights, worldwide. The Software is licensed, not sold. This License transfers
+no ownership of anything to you. Your possession of a copy, in any form, gives
+you no right in it beyond what this License states.
+
+The Specifications describe how the Hyperscale Platform works. The design
+choices they record, the vocabulary they fix, the structure of the financial
+programs, products, ledgers, and adapters they define, and the standard library
+of financial instruments Hyperscale publishes are Hyperscale's intellectual
+property. Publication does not place any of it in the public domain.
+
+## 4. Tiers of permission
+
+Every copy of the Software carries a Notice naming its Tier. If a copy carries
+no Notice, Tier 3 applies. A permission granted at a higher-numbered Tier is
+never implied at a lower-numbered one.
+
+### Tier 1: Open Specification
+
+For Software designated as a Specification, Hyperscale grants you a worldwide,
+non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free, revocable license to:
+
+1. read, copy, and redistribute the Specification, unmodified and with all
+   notices intact;
+2. write programs, documents, and data that conform to the Specification, and
+   use them in any way, including commercially;
+3. write and distribute software that reads, writes, validates, or displays
+   data conforming to the Specification, solely for the purpose of using or
+   interoperating with the Hyperscale Platform or with products built on it;
+4. quote reasonable portions of the Specification in documentation, teaching,
+   and commentary, with attribution to Hyperscale.
+
+Tier 1 does not permit you to build a Competing Product, to publish a modified
+Specification under any name that includes or resembles a Mark, or to claim
+conformance or compatibility except as section 8 allows.
+
+### Tier 2: Source Available
+
+For Software designated as Source Available, Hyperscale grants you a worldwide,
+non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, royalty-free, revocable
+license to:
+
+1. view, download, and study the source;
+2. install, compile, and run the Software, unmodified or modified, on systems
+   you control, for the purpose of building, testing, operating, and
+   maintaining your own products on the Hyperscale Platform;
+3. modify the Software for that purpose and keep the modification for your own
+   internal use;
+4. submit modifications to Hyperscale as Contributions;
+5. redistribute unmodified copies of the Software, in the form Hyperscale
+   published them, with all notices and this License intact, for example by
+   mirroring a package or vendoring a dependency.
+
+Tier 2 does not permit Hosted Use, distribution of modified copies,
+distribution of compiled or bundled forms other than those Hyperscale
+published, or any use in or toward a Competing Product.
+
+### Tier 3: Confidential
+
+For Software designated as Confidential, or carrying no Notice, Hyperscale
+grants you only the license written in the agreement under which you received
+it. If there is no such agreement, you have no license, and you must not use,
+copy, disclose, or retain the Software. Confidential Material includes generated
+SDKs, downloadable product artifacts, private repositories, and anything you
+obtain through a portal, a registry, or a signed-in session. You may use
+Confidential Material only for your own organisation's Hyperscale integration,
+must not publish it to any public repository or package registry, must not
+disclose it beyond personnel and contractors who need it and are bound by
+confidentiality at least as protective as this License, and must destroy it on
+request or when your access ends.
+
+## 5. Restrictions
+
+Whatever the Tier, you must not, and must not help or allow anyone else to:
+
+1. build, contribute to, market, sell, or operate a Competing Product using
+   the Software, a Derivative Work, or knowledge gained from the Software;
+2. create a Derivative Work except as Tier 2 permits for internal use;
+3. reimplement, port, translate, or clone the Software or any part of it, in
+   any programming language, whether by copying or by studying it and
+   rewriting it;
+4. offer the Software or a Derivative Work for Hosted Use;
+5. sublicense, sell, rent, lease, lend, or assign the Software or any right in
+   it;
+6. remove, hide, or alter any copyright, trademark, license, or attribution
+   notice, or misstate the origin of the Software;
+7. reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or unminify any compiled, bundled,
+   or generated form of the Software, except where a law forbids this
+   restriction and only to the extent it does;
+8. circumvent, disable, or evade any license check, access control, rate limit,
+   key, or technical protection in the Software or the Hyperscale Platform;
+9. use the Software, the Specifications, or any output of the Hyperscale
+   Platform as training, fine-tuning, evaluation, or retrieval data for any
+   machine-learning model, or to generate a Competing Product with such a
+   model, without Hyperscale's prior written consent;
+10. use the Software to benchmark or compare the Hyperscale Platform in any
+    publication without Hyperscale's prior written consent;
+11. register, apply for, or claim any patent, trademark, design, or domain
+    name that covers or resembles the Software, the Specifications, or the
+    Marks;
+12. use the Software in violation of any law, sanction, or export control;
+13. use the Software for any purpose this License does not expressly permit.
+
+## 6. Contributions
+
+You are not required to contribute. If you do, then on submission you grant
+Hyperscale, and everyone who receives the Software from Hyperscale, a
+perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free license to use,
+reproduce, modify, distribute, sublicense, and relicense your Contribution
+under any terms, including this License and any commercial license, and you
+grant Hyperscale a patent license of the same scope covering the claims your
+Contribution alone or in combination with the Software would infringe. You
+confirm you have the right to make these grants and that the Contribution is
+your own work or that you have permission to submit it. Hyperscale may require
+a signed contributor agreement before merging any Contribution and may decline
+any Contribution for any reason. Feedback, suggestions, and ideas you send
+about the Software are not confidential and Hyperscale may use them freely.
+
+## 7. Marks
+
+This License grants no right to any Mark. You may refer to the Software and to
+the Hyperscale Platform by name to describe truthfully that your product uses
+or integrates with them. You must not use any Mark as or in the name of your
+product, company, package, domain, or repository, in a logo, or in any way that
+suggests Hyperscale made, sponsors, certifies, or endorses your work.
+
+## 8. Conformance and compatibility claims
+
+You may state that your product "conforms to" or "is compatible with" a named
+Specification version only if, at the time of the claim, your product
+validates against the Specification exactly as Hyperscale published it, using
+Hyperscale's published example inputs unmodified, and you built the product
+under Tier 1 for the purpose of interoperating with the Hyperscale Platform.
+The claim is a statement about your product and never an endorsement by
+Hyperscale. Hyperscale may require you to withdraw a claim it considers false.
+No claim of conformance permits a Competing Product.
+
+## 9. Commercial license
+
+Hyperscale offers a commercial license to organisations whose use falls
+outside this License, including Hosted Use, distribution of modified copies,
+embedding in a proprietary product, or any use a procurement policy cannot
+accept under these terms. Ask through <https://hyperscale0.ai>. Nothing in this
+section grants any right until a commercial agreement is signed.
+
+## 10. Prior releases
+
+Any version of the Software that Hyperscale released under a different license
+remains available under that license for that version only. This License
+applies to every version that carries it and to every later version unless
+that version states otherwise. Nothing in this License narrows a right you
+already hold in a prior version under its own license.
+
+## 11. Term and termination
+
+This License takes effect when you accept it and lasts until terminated. It
+terminates automatically, with no notice, the moment you breach section 5 or
+section 7. For any other breach, it terminates thirty days after Hyperscale
+notifies you, unless you cure the breach within that period and it is the
+first notice you have received. Hyperscale may also terminate this License for
+convenience for any Tier 3 material, on notice. On termination you must stop
+all use, destroy every copy in your possession or control, including
+Derivative Works, and confirm destruction in writing if asked. Sections 3, 5,
+6, 7, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, and 16 survive termination.
+
+## 12. Disclaimer of warranty
+
+The Software is provided "as is" and "as available". Hyperscale makes no
+warranty of any kind, express, implied, or statutory, including any warranty
+of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement,
+accuracy, or that the Software will be error-free or uninterrupted. Hyperscale
+is not a bank, does not hold money, and gives no assurance that any financial
+program, product, or adapter written with the Software is lawful, licensed,
+or fit for any real-world financial use in any jurisdiction.
+
+## 13. Limitation of liability
+
+To the fullest extent the law allows, Hyperscale is not liable to you or any
+third party for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or
+punitive damages, or for any loss of profit, revenue, data, goodwill, or
+business opportunity, arising from or related to the Software or this
+License, however caused and under any theory of liability, even if advised of
+the possibility. Hyperscale's total liability under this License is limited to
+one thousand Saudi riyals (SAR 1,000) or the amount you paid Hyperscale for the
+Software in the twelve months before the claim, whichever is greater.
+
+## 14. Indemnity
+
+You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Hyperscale, its owners,
+officers, employees, and agents from every claim, loss, damage, liability,
+cost, and expense, including reasonable legal fees, arising from your use of
+the Software, your Derivative Works, your products, or your breach of this
+License.
+
+## 15. Remedies and enforcement
+
+You acknowledge that the Software embodies valuable trade secrets and
+intellectual property of Hyperscale, that a breach of section 3, 4, 5, or 7
+would cause Hyperscale irreparable harm that money alone cannot repair, and
+that Hyperscale is entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief in any
+court of competent jurisdiction to stop or prevent a breach, without posting a
+bond and in addition to every other remedy. You will pay Hyperscale's
+reasonable legal fees and costs in any action in which Hyperscale enforces
+this License and prevails on any claim. Hyperscale may bring an action in the
+courts named in section 16 or in any jurisdiction where the Software is used,
+a Derivative Work is made, or a Competing Product is offered, and you consent
+to the jurisdiction of those courts.
+
+## 16. Governing law and venue
+
+This License is governed by the laws of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, including
+the Copyright Law issued by Royal Decree M/41 and its implementing
+regulations, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. The competent courts of
+Riyadh have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from this License,
+subject to Hyperscale's right under section 15 to enforce elsewhere. The
+Berne Convention and the TRIPS Agreement apply to the protection of the
+Software in every member state. Where a law of another jurisdiction gives you
+a right this License cannot exclude, that right is preserved to the minimum
+extent that law requires and no further.
+
+## 17. General
+
+1. This License is the entire agreement between you and Hyperscale about the
+   Software under its Tier, and replaces every earlier or contemporaneous
+   understanding, except a signed commercial agreement, which prevails where
+   the two conflict.
+2. If any provision is held unenforceable, it is limited to the minimum
+   extent necessary and the rest stays in force.
+3. Hyperscale's failure or delay in enforcing any provision is not a waiver.
+   A waiver is effective only in writing signed by Hyperscale.
+4. You may not assign or transfer this License or any right under it, by
+   operation of law or otherwise, and any attempt is void. Hyperscale may
+   assign it freely.
+5. Hyperscale may publish new versions of this License. Each version of the
+   Software carries the License version it was released under, and a new
+   License version applies only to Software that carries it.
+6. This License is written in English. Hyperscale may publish an Arabic
+   translation. Where a court requires an Arabic text, the certified Arabic
+   translation Hyperscale provides is the text of record; in every other case
+   the English text governs.
+7. Nothing in this License creates a partnership, joint venture, agency, or
+   employment relationship between you and Hyperscale.
+8. Notices to Hyperscale go to the address published at
+   <https://hyperscale0.ai/legal>.

-in public, or it is not added.
-
-So the guide below is not a simplified account of how we do it. It is how we
-do it.
-
-## What an adapter is
-
-A declaration, not a client. A plain object saying what the provider does:
-which commands exist, how each response classifies, what the bank's status
-tokens mean, when statements can be fetched, which reference comes back on a
-debit. The runtime that executes it is generic and ships with the platform.
+# ADL
 
-Your adapter opens no sockets, holds no credentials, and decides nothing about
-what a payment means. It states facts, and the checks in this package prove
-those facts are complete enough for a generic runtime to poll, classify,
-reconcile, and dedupe without guessing.
+ADL declares provider bindings and the instruction and observation contract for external work. HSX authors money behavior; UDL carries that contract into execution. The runtime owns money accounts, reservations and evidence consumption.

+Pre-1.0 releases are prerelease versions (alpha and beta). Pin an exact version if needed: until 1.0.0, a change to the surface ships as a minor bump, not a major. ADL depends on `@hyperscale0/udl` for object field schema validation.
 
-`createProviderAdapterRegistry` validates at import and preserves your literal
-types. `certifyPartnerBankAdapter` throws with every gap listed at once; an
-empty finding list is the certification.
+## Adapter declaration
 
-## Where to go next
+Use `createProviderAdapterRegistry` to validate `ProviderAdapter` declarations and `adapterConformanceFindings` to report incomplete bindings. `BoundaryAdapter` dispatches immutable `BoundaryInstruction` values and returns explicit `BoundaryObservation` values.

 ## Versioning
 
-Semantic versioning from 1.0.0. Until then, alpha releases may change the
-surface on a minor version. Two promises hold now:
-
-- conformance codes are append-only: a released code is never renamed or
-  removed, so `switch` statements stay exhaustive;
-- removing a value from a vocabulary in `src/vocabulary.ts` is a breaking
-  change and appears in [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md).

-Issues only. Hyperscale makes the changes to the format and the package; you

-conformance case it would add. [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) has that
-model in full, plus the loop: what earns a new field, how to regenerate the
-schema, and the CLA behind a rare accepted pull request. Participation is under
