-      "markdown": "# Buildchain CLI, npm Package, and Toolkit API\n\nBuildchain is published as the public npm package\n`@kungfu-tech/buildchain`. The package contains the `buildchain` command,\nthe importable ESM toolkit APIs, and the local scripts needed to initialize and\nvalidate repositories before they use the reusable GitHub workflow surface.\n\nThe npm package is not the release authority. Release authority still comes\nfrom the protected Buildchain branch and tag state machine. npm publishing is a\nside effect of an exact release tag that has already been produced by that\nstate machine.\n\n## Install and Run\n\nUse the published package directly:\n\n```bash\nnpx @kungfu-tech/buildchain --help\nnpx @kungfu-tech/buildchain init --type package\nnpx @kungfu-tech/buildchain validate --require-version-state\n```\n\nOr install it in a repository:\n\n```bash\npnpm add -D @kungfu-tech/buildchain\npnpm exec buildchain validate\n```\n\nConsumers should pin the exact Buildchain version that was validated in their\nrepository. When dogfooding a fresh Buildchain release immediately after it is\npublished, pnpm may block the install through a minimum release-age policy. In\nthat case, add a temporary package/version-specific `minimumReleaseAgeExclude`\nentry, such as `@kungfu-tech/buildchain@2.2.5`, and remove it once the package\nhas aged past the normal policy window. Do not replace that with a broad\nregistry or scope-wide exclude.\n\nUse the package API directly inside JavaScript build scripts:\n\n```js\nimport { createBuildchainLogger } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/logging\";\n\nconst logger = createBuildchainLogger({ source: \"user\", component: \"build\" });\nawait logger.span(\"build.native\", { phase: \"build\" }, async () => {\n  await buildNativeArtifacts();\n});\n```\n\nThe standalone binary and CLI are for workflow steps, shell scripts, and\nnon-JavaScript environments. JavaScript code that already depends on\n`@kungfu-tech/buildchain` should import the toolkit API instead of spawning\n`npx buildchain` or a downloaded binary.\n\n## Node API and Package Exports\n\nBuildchain's public Node API is the package `exports` surface, not arbitrary\ninternal file paths. The npm package also ships\n`dist/site/node-api-registry.json` and exports it as\n`@kungfu-tech/buildchain/site/node-api-registry.json` so agents can enumerate\nthe supported imports from the installed package.\nFor navigation, start with `dist/site/capability-registry.json`: it groups\nmanuals, CLI commands, workflow/action inputs, Node exports, site pages, and KFD\nclaim facts by product capability before an agent chooses a concrete command or\nmanual.\n\nCurrent public import families include:\n\n```js\nimport * as buildchain from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain\";\nimport { createBuildchainLogger } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/logging\";\nimport { collectModuleBuildFacts } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/build-facts\";\nimport { checkHomebrewTap } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/homebrew\";\nimport { verifyKfd1ReleaseGate } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/kfd-gate\";\nimport { collectBadgeBundleFacts } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/badges\";\nimport { collectReadmeBadgeFacts } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/readme-badges\";\nimport { verifyReleasePassport } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/release-passport\";\nimport { createReleasePropagationPlan } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/release-propagation\";\nimport { planReleaseLineBootstrap } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/release-line-bootstrap\";\nimport { collectPublicSurfaceReverseAudit } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/public-surface-audit\";\nimport { createBuildchainLayoutDiscovery } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/buildchain-layout\";\nimport contractWorld from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/site/buildchain-contract.json\" with { type: \"json\" };\nimport capabilityRegistry from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/site/capability-registry.json\" with { type: \"json\" };\nimport manualRegistry from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/site/manual-registry.json\" with { type: \"json\" };\nimport nodeApiRegistry from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/site/node-api-registry.json\" with { type: \"json\" };\nimport publicSurfaceAudit from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/site/public-surface-audit.json\" with { type: \"json\" };\n```\n\nUse `dist/site/manual-registry.json` to find the packaged operating manuals and\ntheir SHA-256 digests. Use `dist/site/buildchain-contract.json` to verify the\nfloating-ref contract world for a runtime such as `@v2`.\n\n## Commands\n\n`buildchain layout` is the stable machine question for repository layout. Tools\nsuch as Shifu should call it instead of copying `.buildchain/` path constants:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain layout --cwd /path/to/repository --json\n```\n\nThe result identifies the Buildchain version pin, repository root and config,\nthe canonical and currently resolved KFD-3 registry paths, and the KFD field\nused to declare Shifu jurisdiction. A repository is in Shifu's distribution\njurisdiction only when a KFD-3 surface explicitly declares\n`distribution.registrar=\"shifu\"`; the presence of Buildchain configuration is\nnot sufficient. The same contract is available through\n`createBuildchainLayoutDiscovery()` from\n`@kungfu-tech/buildchain/buildchain-layout`.\n\n`buildchain init` writes a starter `.buildchain/buildchain.toml` and a reusable workflow\ncaller at `.github/workflows/build.yml`.\n\nSupported presets:\n\n- `--type package` for Node package repositories with pnpm, npm, or yarn.\n- `--type native` for CMake-style native projects.\n- `--type web-surface` for preview/staging/production site or app deployments.\n- `--type infra-contract` for provider-agnostic infrastructure contract\n  validation, observation, contract publication, and downstream propagation\n  planning without default mutation. Provider adapters expose built-in command\n  plans by default, and only configured `[infra.commands]` hooks can execute.\n- `--type publication-artifact` for papers, reports, specifications, and other\n  publication repositories that produce PDFs, metadata, source bundles, and\n  site-consumable manifests without becoming web-surface repositories. The\n  scaffold uses Buildchain's pinned\n  `ghcr.io/kungfu-systems/build-images/latex-pdf-builder:v1.2.0` toolchain for\n  LaTeX PDF builds.\n- `--type distribution-index` for Homebrew taps and other index repositories\n  whose files are projections of upstream release passport evidence.\n- `--type anchored-package` for packages whose version is anchored to an\n  explicit upstream release manifest.\n\nThe native preset includes an opt-in `[diagnostics.native]` profile with common\ntool/cache/artifact probes. Consumers can keep it enabled, adjust the tool and\ndirectory lists, or disable it if a repository does not need native diagnostics.\n\n`buildchain validate` parses `.buildchain/buildchain.toml`, checks configured version-state\nfiles, and can require named lifecycle stages:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain validate \\\n  --require-version-state \\\n  --require-lifecycle-stages install,build,verify\n```\n\n`buildchain lifecycle run <stage>` executes a lifecycle stage and writes the\nsame deterministic artifact manifest contract used by the reusable workflow:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain lifecycle run build \\\n  --artifact-path dist \\\n  --artifact-name \"{repo}-{version}-{platform}\"\n```\n\n`buildchain dev merge-queue` plans a GitHub merge-queue policy for a protected\nBuildchain dev channel. Declare every workflow that emits a required check; the\ncommand fails closed unless each file handles both `pull_request` and\n`merge_group` without reading `github.event.pull_request` directly:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain dev merge-queue \\\n  --repository kungfu-systems/example \\\n  --branch dev/v4/v4.0 \\\n  --workflow .github/workflows/source-acceptance.yml \\\n  --workflow .github/workflows/affected-native-pr.yml\n```\n\nThe default output is a read-only plan. Add `--apply` only after reviewing it.\nApply creates the exact-branch merge-queue ruleset before changing classic\nrequired status checks from strict to loose, preserves the required check\nidentities, and is safe to repeat. `gh` must be authenticated with repository\nAdministration write permission for apply mode.\n\n`buildchain release line open` plans or writes the first version-state commit\nfor a new semver minor line. It does not publish anything. The dry-run mode is\nthe default and returns the dev/alpha/release refs, protection contract, default\nbranch action, and initial version before any GitHub mutation happens:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain release line open \\\n  --major 2 \\\n  --minor 10 \\\n  --source-ref release/v2/v2.9 \\\n  --json\n```\n\nThe write mode only updates local version-state files. The repository workflow\n`Release Line Bootstrap` wraps this command and, when `apply=true`, commits the\ninitial version state, creates `dev/vX/vX.Y`, `alpha/vX/vX.Y`, and\n`release/vX/vX.Y`, applies one-review branch protection, switches the default\nbranch, and opens the first dev-to-alpha channel PR:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain release line open \\\n  --major 2 \\\n  --minor 10 \\\n  --source-ref release/v2/v2.9 \\\n  --write \\\n  --json\n```\n\n`buildchain` also publishes a public surface reverse audit as\n`dist/site/public-surface-audit.json`. The audit enumerates CLI commands from\n`bin/buildchain.mjs`, workflow inputs, action inputs, site pages, and docs\ncommand references, then compares them with the generated registries. Buildchain\nself-checks fail closed when an enumerable public surface is missing from the\nregistry:\n\n```js\nimport {\n  collectPublicSurfaceReverseAudit,\n  assertPublicSurfaceReverseAudit,\n} from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/public-surface-audit\";\n\nassertPublicSurfaceReverseAudit(collectPublicSurfaceReverseAudit({ root: process.cwd() }));\n```\n\n`buildchain kfd` is the product-facing KFD namespace. Schema commands expose the\nmachine-readable KFD standards shipped by `@kungfu-tech/kfd`, while versioned\nsubcommands host concrete product workflows. KFD-1, KFD-2, and KFD-3 are\nfirst-class Buildchain surfaces. KFD-4 is schema-only until Buildchain has a\nreal verification protocol for it.\n\n`status` reports implemented support and the active repo-owned file layout.\n`migrate-layout` moves legacy root files into `.buildchain/`:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain kfd status --json\nbuildchain kfd migrate-layout --write\n```\n\nKFD-1 commands generate and validate contract-world release evidence:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain kfd 1 schema --json\nbuildchain kfd 1 witness --json\nbuildchain kfd 1 gate --witness-json kfd-1-witness.json --json\nbuildchain kfd 1 verify --gate-json kfd-1-gate.json --json\n```\n\nKFD-2 commands validate trust taxonomy entries and generate Buildchain's public\nclaim evidence. Product repositories use the `product-claims` subcommand to\nvalidate and render their own declared KFD-2 release claims under the canonical\nBuildchain KFD layout:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain kfd 2 schema --json\nbuildchain kfd 2 taxonomy --entry-json residual-risk.json --kind residualRisk --json\nbuildchain kfd 2 claims --json\nbuildchain kfd 2 product-claims check --json\nbuildchain kfd 2 product-claims write --json\nbuildchain kfd 2 product-claims render --json\n```\n\nThe default source is `.buildchain/kfd/kfd-2/registry.json`; outputs are\n`.buildchain/kfd/kfd-2/release-claims.json`, per-claim release-passport inputs\nunder `claims/`, and `buildchain-claim-args.txt`. Use `--registry` or\n`--output-dir` only for an explicit product packaging projection. `check` never\nwrites and exits non-zero when outputs drift.\n\nKFD-3 commands are separate from Buildchain's self reverse audit: products can\ndetect standard public surfaces, register the accepted boundary, audit the\ncurrent source or artifact tree, generate a release-passport-compatible witness,\nand expose a capability map for agents:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain kfd schema list --json\nbuildchain kfd schema show kfd-3 --json\nbuildchain kfd 3 detect --kind node-api --kind cli --json\nbuildchain kfd 3 register node-api --product Buildchain\nbuildchain kfd 3 audit --json\nbuildchain kfd 3 witness --kind prebuild --output .buildchain/kfd/kfd-3/collaboration-interface.prebuild.json\nbuildchain kfd 3 query buildchain --json\nbuildchain kfd 4 schema --json\n```\n\nThe public Node API is exported from `@kungfu-tech/buildchain/kfd`. See\n[`kfd-support.md`](kfd-support.md) for the detected / declared / enforced model\nand the agent query flow.\n\nLifecycle runs also write a Buildchain observability JSONL log at\n`.buildchain/logs/events.jsonl` by default. Framework events use\n`source=buildchain`; consumer lifecycle commands use `source=user`. This lets a\nmaintainer tell apart time spent inside Buildchain's artifact/manifest\nframework from time spent in the repository's own build, test, packaging, or\npublish commands. The artifact manifest and summary embed the observability\nsummary for that lifecycle run id, so uploaded artifacts preserve the timing\nfacts without mixing in older JSONL events.\n\n`buildchain log`, `buildchain mark`, and `buildchain span` expose the same event\nprotocol to repository scripts:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain mark --event configure.ready --phase configure --attribute target=release\nbuildchain span --event native.build --phase build -- cmake --build build\nbuildchain log warn --event cache.miss --component conan --attribute token=hidden\nbuildchain log summary --json\nbuildchain verify observability-log .buildchain/logs/events.jsonl --min-events 4 --require-phase build\nbuildchain diagnostics summary .buildchain/artifacts/*/diagnostics.json --json\nbuildchain sample process-tree --label native-build --interval-ms 15000 -- make -j20\n```\n\nDuring `buildchain lifecycle run`, child processes receive\n`BUILDCHAIN_LOG_PATH` and `BUILDCHAIN_LOG_RUN_ID`. A shell, Python, CMake, Conan,\nor JavaScript helper can call `buildchain mark` or `buildchain span` mid-build\nand have those events grouped into the same lifecycle summary.\n`buildchain verify observability-log` is a release gate: it fails when the log\nis missing, has too few events, contains error events, or does not include\nrequired phases, components, or event names.\n\nThe event protocol is JSONL and is also available from the SDK:\n\n```js\nimport { createBuildchainLogger } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/logging\";\n\nconst logger = createBuildchainLogger({ source: \"user\", component: \"native-build\" });\nlogger.mark(\"configure.ready\", { phase: \"configure\" });\n```\n\nSecret-looking attribute keys such as `token`, `password`, `secret`,\n`authorization`, `cookie`, and `private-key` are redacted before they are written.\nFull command strings are not recorded by `span`; scripts should provide stable\nevent names and safe attributes instead.\n\n`buildchain diagnostics summary` reads one or more small diagnostics artifacts\nand emits the same cross-platform summary as the diagnostics SDK:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain diagnostics summary \\\n  .buildchain/artifacts/linux-x64/diagnostics.json \\\n  .buildchain/artifacts/macos-arm64/diagnostics.json \\\n  --output .buildchain/artifacts/diagnostics-summary.json \\\n  --json\n```\n\nThe JSON summary keeps per-platform lifecycle stage tables, adds lifecycle\ntotal durations, carries top slow spans, aggregates warning/error counts, and\nsorts the slowest platforms. Each platform row carries compact runner facts,\nchecked tool versions/missing tools, package manager/cache directory details,\ncompiler-cache availability, and a compact process sampler summary: requested\nparallelism, observed max active processes, the ratio between them, sample\ncount, process categories, and the top sampled command basenames. This lets\nmaintainers inspect matrix timing, runner, tool, cache, and concurrency context\nwithout downloading large platform binaries or process sidecars first.\nWhen a sibling `diagnostics-manifest.json` is available, the summary also records\nits file list and verifies the listed `diagnostics.json` byte count and sha256.\nMissing, unreadable, or mismatched sidecar manifests are reported through\n`diagnosticsManifestWarningCount` and the per-platform `diagnosticsManifest`\nfield without failing the timing rollup.\nThe summary also compares each `diagnostics.json` contract to\n`BUILDCHAIN_DIAGNOSTICS_CONTRACT`; mismatches are reported through\n`diagnosticsContractWarningCount` and the per-platform `diagnosticsContract`\nfield so reviewers can separate diagnostics schema drift from lifecycle\nwarnings or build failures.\n\nWithout `--json`, the command prints a compact lifecycle timing table with\ninstall/build/verify/publish, artifact scan/upload, total, warning, and error\ncolumns for each platform, plus `jobs` and `active` columns for requested and\nobserved process concurrency when sampler data is present.\n\n`buildchain facts` collects and verifies source/version/output facts for\nmodules and products:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain facts module \\\n  --module native-core \\\n  --output .buildchain/facts/native-core.json \\\n  --legacy-kungfu-buildinfo framework/core/src/kungfu/yijinjing/kungfubuildinfo.json\n\nbuildchain facts aggregate \\\n  --product kungfu \\\n  --module-fact .buildchain/facts/native-core.json \\\n  --artifact dist/kungfu.zip \\\n  --output .buildchain/facts/kungfu.json\n\nbuildchain facts verify --fact .buildchain/facts/kungfu.json\n```\n\nThe same implementation is available from\n`@kungfu-tech/buildchain/build-facts`. Release passports can include these\nfacts with repeated `--build-facts-json` arguments to\n`buildchain collect github-release`. See\n[`build-facts.md`](build-facts.md) for the config schema and Node API.\n\n`buildchain sample process-tree` wraps a long-running command and periodically\nwrites process-tree snapshots:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain sample process-tree \\\n  --label native-build \\\n  --interval-ms 15000 \\\n  --output .buildchain/diagnostics/process-samples.jsonl \\\n  --summary-output .buildchain/diagnostics/process-summary.json \\\n  -- \\\n  make -j20\n```\n\nThe command returns the wrapped command's exit status. The JSONL file contains\nsmall timestamped samples; the summary JSON records requested parallelism,\nobserved concurrency, sampled CPU, command categories, and top command\nbasenames. Use it when a native build requests high parallelism but appears to\nspend long stretches in low-concurrency compile, archive, link, or cache steps.\n\n`buildchain doctor` checks repository readiness before remote side effects:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain doctor --json\n```\n\nIt validates `.buildchain/buildchain.toml`, package-manager detection, Git repository state,\nand the reusable workflow caller. For `version.strategy = \"anchored\"` with\n`version.next = \"manual\"`, it also embeds the anchored package release contract\ncheck: anchor manifest readability, configured version files, trusted\npublishing, package publish order, and required lifecycle stages. Add\n`--require-publish-source-lock` inside a publish job when the doctor report\nshould also fail unless the job is running from a resolved `publish-gate/*`\nsource lock.\n\nAnchored/manual package publish jobs can run the narrower source-lock gate\ndirectly:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain publish-source validate-anchored-release --json\n```\n\nThe command requires `BUILDCHAIN_PUBLISH_SOURCE_REF`,\n`BUILDCHAIN_PUBLISH_SOURCE_SHA`, and `BUILDCHAIN_PUBLISH_SOURCE_LOCKED` from the\nreusable build workflow outputs. It fails closed for direct `alpha/*` or\n`release/*` channel-branch publication, and checks the publish-gate consumer\nversion against configured version files and the anchor manifest. The JSON\nresult is shaped for future `buildchain.libkungfu.dev` fact ingestion.\n\n`buildchain release`, `buildchain web-surface`, `buildchain infra-contract`,\n`buildchain publication-artifact`, `buildchain publish-source`,\n`buildchain badges`, `buildchain homebrew`, and `buildchain build-contract`\nroute to the same implementation used by\nBuildchain's package APIs or GitHub Actions workflows. This keeps local\ninspection and CI behavior on the same implementation path.\n\nGenerate publication artifact metadata after building a paper or report:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain publication-artifact manifest \\\n  --source-sha \"$(git rev-parse HEAD)\" \\\n  --json\n```\n\nGenerate the Buildchain-owned npm paper package contents from declared\npublication facts:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain publication-artifact npm-package --json\n```\n\nThis command reads `project.type = \"publication-artifact\"`,\n`publication.version`, and `[publish] kind = \"npm-paper-package\"` plus\n`publish.package`; it writes `.buildchain/publication/npm-package` by default.\nThe `paper-release.yml@v2` reusable workflow uses the same command before\nrunning the standard npm publish transaction.\n\nThe command writes `.buildchain/publication/publication-artifact.json`,\n`.buildchain/publication/publication-artifact-passport.json`, a source bundle,\nand, when `[publication.archive]` is configured,\n`.buildchain/publication/publication-registry.json` by default. See\n[`publication-artifacts.md`](publication-artifacts.md) for the repository\ncontract, pinned LaTeX builder, and reusable workflow.\n\nGenerate, check, or update the managed README badge block:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain badges readme --json\nbuildchain badges readme --check\nbuildchain badges readme --write\nbuildchain badges bundle --json\nbuildchain badges bundle --check\nbuildchain badges bundle --write\nbuildchain badges bundle --claims kfd-1,release-passport --write\n```\n\nThe `--json` form emits the `kungfu-buildchain-readme-badge-facts` object.\n`--check` fails closed when the README marker block is missing or stale.\n`--write` inserts or replaces only the marked block. KFD passed badges come\nfrom the repository's own verified release passport; unreleased repositories\ndowngrade to explicit local declarations such as `declared`, `aligned`, or\n`planned`. `buildchain badges bundle` is the focused trust-badge entrypoint: it\nemits `kungfu-buildchain-badge-bundle-facts` and defaults to KFD-1, KFD-2,\nKFD-3, and Release Passport. See [`readme-badges.md`](readme-badges.md) for the\nmarker contract and `[badges]` / `[badges.bundle]` configuration.\n\nGenerate or check Homebrew tap projections from upstream release passports:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain homebrew update-formula \\\n  --package buildchain \\\n  --release-passport https://github.com/kungfu-systems/buildchain/releases/download/v2.8.15/buildchain.release.json \\\n  --write\n\nbuildchain homebrew check --json\n```\n\n`update-formula` writes `Formula/buildchain.rb` and `tap-manifest.json` from\nupstream release passport evidence. `check` fails closed when the Formula,\nmanifest, artifact digests, or KFD status drift from the upstream passport. See\n[`homebrew.md`](homebrew.md) for the distribution-index project contract.\n\n`buildchain collect github-release` creates a release passport bundle from\nGitHub Release assets or a local asset directory:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain collect github-release \\\n  --tag v2.2.0 \\\n  --repository kungfu-systems/buildchain \\\n  --assets-dir dist \\\n  --output-dir .buildchain/release-passport\n```\n\nThe bundle includes `buildchain.release.json`, `artifact-evidence.json`,\n`impact.json`, `agent-index.json`, `product-mechanism.json`, `check-report.json`,\nand `llms.txt`. Production binary distribution defaults to GitHub-hosted\nrunners so other projects can reproduce the release lane; self-hosted runners\nremain compatibility fixtures and are recorded as runner facts when used.\n\nFor publish-transaction releases, pass the additional evidence inputs so\n`buildchain.release.json` becomes the unified passport instead of a binary-only\nasset summary:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain collect github-release \\\n  --tag v2.3.2 \\\n  --repository kungfu-systems/buildchain \\\n  --assets-dir dist \\\n  --publish-evidence-json .buildchain/release-evidence/v2.3.2/evidence.json \\\n  --transaction-json .buildchain/release-state/v2.3.2/state.json \\\n  --package-set-json package-set.json \\\n  --impact-json impact.json \\\n  --trusted-publishing-json trusted-publishing.json \\\n  --anchor-manifest-json libnode.release.json \\\n  --build-summary-json .buildchain/artifacts/build-summary.json \\\n  --platform-manifest-json .buildchain/artifacts/linux-x64/manifest.json \\\n  --platform-manifest-json .buildchain/artifacts/darwin-arm64/manifest.json \\\n  --platform-manifest-json .buildchain/artifacts/win32-x64/manifest.json \\\n  --dist-tag-evidence-json .buildchain/release-evidence/v2.3.2/dist-tag-evidence.json \\\n  --kfd-1-witness-json .buildchain/kfd/kfd-1/contract-world.witness.json \\\n  --kfd-2-claim-json .buildchain/kfd/kfd-2/release-claims.json \\\n  --kfd-3-prebuild-witness-json .buildchain/kfd/kfd-3/collaboration-interface.prebuild.json \\\n  --kfd-3-artifact-verify-cmd \"kungfu agent verify --json\" \\\n  --release-extra-json '{\"channel\":\"release\",\"targetRef\":\"release/v2/v2.3\"}' \\\n  --output-dir .buildchain/release-passport\n```\n\nThe generated passport records the main and platform packages, npm dist-tags,\npublished versions, release source/ref state, anchor manifest digest, registry\nartifact digests, trusted publishing evidence, and Buildchain transaction\nresult. It also records `buildSummary`, `platformArtifactManifests`, and\n`distTagPromotion` when those JSON inputs are supplied. `packageSet` keeps the\nordered package set; `publish.packages[]` is the agent-readable npm publication\nsummary for each main/platform package. For Buildchain releases, verification\nexpects the supplied package set to include the main package plus the three\nplatform packages with version, dist-tag, and digest evidence. Verification\nfails closed if supplied sections are internally incomplete or point to\nartifacts without matching evidence.\n\n`--kfd-1-witness-json` attaches a KFD-1 contract-world release gate. The witness\nis structured JSON: consumers declare the contract world, canonical JSON policy,\nartifact paths, and expected SHA-256 digests. Buildchain imports KFD-owned\nmetadata from `@kungfu-tech/kfd`, freezes the witness before build publication,\nthen verifies the resulting artifact bytes itself and writes the evidence under\nthe KFD-provided top-level key currently named `kfd-1`. Consumers should not\nduplicate this by running repository-specific scripts or invoking the Kungfu\nSDK from their release workflow.\n\nFor the KFD repository, KFD-1 witnesses may be self-hosted standard-contract\nwitnesses: docs, schemas, standards metadata, package exports, and\nsite-consumption entrypoints are checked from source hashes to packaged artifact\nhashes, and the passport records schema IDs, self-hosting boundary, result, and\nresponsibility state.\n\n`--kfd-2-claim-json` attaches explicit public release claims to the KFD-2\nrelease trust passport audit. Buildchain also derives KFD-2 claims from KFD-1\nand KFD-3 gate evidence. Public claims must bind declared sources,\nmachine-readable evidence, hashes, artifact coordinates, verification results,\naudit boundary, responsibility state, and residual risk. Unbound claims fail\npassport verification; prose-only claims downgrade the KFD-2 audit and emit a\nwarning.\n\n`--kfd-3-prebuild-witness-json` attaches a KFD-3 collaboration-interface\nrelease gate. The product remains the source of truth: it emits a pre-build\nwitness that contains or points to its KFD-3 collaboration interface, declared\nparticipant-facing public surfaces, and registry digest. Buildchain freezes\nthat declaration before publication. The artifact side is supplied either by\n`--kfd-3-artifact-witness-json` or by a product-owned command such as\n`--kfd-3-artifact-verify-cmd \"kungfu agent verify --json\"`. Buildchain then\nchecks closure: every declared shipped public surface must be present in the\nartifact witness, and every artifact-exposed participant-facing public surface\nmust have been declared. The generated passport writes this evidence under the\nKFD-provided top-level key currently named `kfd-3`.\n\nThis gate is useful for agent-facing products because it turns KFD-3 from prose\ninto release evidence. A package cannot claim KFD-3 collaboration-interface\nsupport merely because the docs mention it; the release passport must show the\nfrozen declaration, the artifact-side witness digest, and a passing closure\ncomparison.\nFor the KFD repository itself, the witness can declare docs, schemas, standards\nmetadata, package exports, and site-consumption contracts as grouped public\nsurfaces; the artifact witness must expose the same enumerable package/site\nsurfaces or verification fails closed.\n\n`--impact-json` supplies the surface-aware impact ledger. Production release\npassports (`release/*`) and major publish-gate passports require\n`surfaceImpacts[]`; alpha, local, and legacy passport contexts keep it\noptional. When `surfaceImpacts[]` is required or supplied, the verifier requires\neach entry to include an id, impact, and rationale, and requires\n`versionImpact.final` to match the highest declared surface impact. The\ncollector copies `versionImpact` plus `surfaceImpacts` into\n`buildchain.release.json`. This lets\n`buildchain explain release --for agent --json` state why a release is patch,\nminor, or major instead of relying on file-path memory.\n\nBuildchain dogfoods its observability toolkit in this lane. The standalone\nbuilder writes API-generated events, while the workflow uses `buildchain mark`,\n`buildchain span`, `buildchain verify observability-log`, and `buildchain log\nsummary`; the event logs and summaries are published as release passport assets.\n\nVerify and explain release passports:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain verify release-passport .buildchain/release-passport/buildchain.release.json\nbuildchain explain release --passport .buildchain/release-passport/buildchain.release.json --for agent --json\nbuildchain inspect release --passport .buildchain/release-passport/buildchain.release.json\n```\n\nThe verifier fails closed when required protocol files are absent, artifacts are\nnot covered by evidence, or digests disagree. The explanation output is shaped\nfor agents: trust, completeness, impact, recovery route, and next action.\n\nVerify a published artifact by subject:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain verify artifact ./Kungfu-2.8.0-windows-x64.exe\nbuildchain inspect artifact ./Kungfu-2.8.0-windows-x64.exe --json\nbuildchain explain artifact ./Kungfu-2.8.0-windows-x64.exe --for agent --json\nbuildchain verify artifact npm:@kungfu-tech/libnode@22.22.3-kf.3-alpha.18 \\\n  --repository kungfu-systems/libnode \\\n  --tag v22.22.3-kf.3-alpha.18 \\\n  --json\n```\n\n`verify artifact` computes or obtains the subject digest, discovers the\ndetached release passport, verifies the passport, then requires that the\nsubject digest appears in the passport's release assets, package set, publish\nevidence, or artifact evidence. Outcomes are explicit: `pass`, `fail`, or\n`unverifiable`. A filename is only a hint; trust comes from digest equality.\nFor `npm:<name>@<version>` subjects, Buildchain resolves `dist.integrity` from\nthe npm registry before matching passport evidence. Use `--npm-registry <url>`\nto verify packages from a custom registry; otherwise Buildchain uses\n`npm_config_registry` or `https://registry.npmjs.org/`.\n\nDiscovery is fail-closed and ordered:\n\n1. `--passport <file-or-url>`.\n2. Sidecar pointer, such as `<artifact>.buildchain-passport.json`.\n3. Embedded/package pointer, such as `package.json` `buildchain.releasePassport`.\n4. Local config or org index, such as `.buildchain/artifact-passport-locators.json`.\n5. GitHub Release default discovery from `github-release:` subjects, GitHub\n   Release asset URLs, or `--repository <owner/repo> --tag <tag>`.\n6. Custom `--locator-config <json-or-url>`.\n7. `unverifiable` with retry guidance.\n\nLocator files are policy, not protocol. They map subject fields such as\n`name`, `kind`, `version`, `digest`, `repository`, or `tag` to a detached\npassport location:\n\n```json\n{\n  \"schemaVersion\": 1,\n  \"contract\": \"kungfu-buildchain-artifact-passport-locator\",\n  \"locators\": [\n    {\n      \"match\": {\n        \"name\": \"Kungfu-2.8.0-windows-x64.exe\",\n        \"digest\": \"sha256:...\"\n      },\n      \"passport\": \"../release-passport/buildchain.release.json\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n```\n\nSupported subject shapes include local files and directories, URLs,\n`npm:<name>@<version>`, `oci:...`, `s3:...`,\n`github-release:<owner/repo>@<tag>/<asset>`, and deployment endpoints. Local\nfiles, directories, and URLs are digestable directly; remote package, OCI,\nobject storage, and deployment subjects should provide a digest or resolve to a\nlocator that records one.\n\nSeal an exact artifact verification with the Node API, then verify or project\nthe resulting KFX admission envelope without reconstructing its roots:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain verify artifact-envelope envelope.json \\\n  --assessment-time 150 \\\n  --expected-root sha256:... \\\n  --expected-issuer buildchain.libkungfu.dev \\\n  --expected-publisher kungfu-systems \\\n  --expected-contract buildchain.release/v1 \\\n  --json\n\nbuildchain project kfx-admission envelope.json \\\n  --assessment-time 150 \\\n  --json\n```\n\nBoth commands call the public artifact-verification-envelope verifier. The\nprojected `attestation`, `trustInputs`, and `kfdAssessment` are direct copies of\nthe sealed envelope, and `envelopeRoot` stays identical across Node and CLI.\nSee [`artifact-verification-envelope.md`](artifact-verification-envelope.md).\n\nVerify infra-contract lifecycle evidence bundles:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain infra-contract --mode ci --source-sha \"$GITHUB_SHA\"\nbuildchain verify infra-contract-evidence-bundle .buildchain/infra-contract-evidence-bundle.json\n```\n\nThe infra-contract `ci` mode is mutation-free. It writes validate, plan,\ncontract, propagation dry-run, evidence bundle, and verification JSON artifacts\nunder `.buildchain/`, giving reusable workflows one standard responsibility\nchain instead of hand-written command sequences.\n\nThe infra-contract verifier is read-only. It recomputes the bundle hash and\nchecks that desired, plan, approval, apply, observe, contract, and propagate\nevidence remain bound to the same contract artifact. It also recomputes the\nbundle validation summary, so stale or misleading summary booleans fail closed\neven when the bundle hash has been refreshed.\n\n`buildchain release --dry-run` explains the release-line state machine before a\nmaintainer opens or merges a channel PR:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain release --dry-run --target-ref alpha/v2/v2.2\nbuildchain release --dry-run --target-ref release/v2/v2.2 --sha <verified-sha>\nbuildchain release dry-run --target-ref publish-gate/major --source-ref release/v2/v2.2\nbuildchain release explain --target-ref alpha/v2/v2.1 --json\n```\n\nThis is a Buildchain-level dry-run, not an npm dry-run. It explains the legal\nsource branch, exact release or alpha tags, floating tags, channel branches,\nversion-state files, governance checks, and publish transaction behavior that\nwould apply if the corresponding PR merge were promoted. It does not move\nbranches, move tags, edit files, publish npm packages, or run lifecycle publish\ncommands. `release explain` is the same explanation surface with a clearer name.\nPass `--json` for a machine-readable plan.\n\n`buildchain transaction inspect` is the top-level recovery inspection command\nfor the publish transaction state:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain transaction inspect --version v2.1.0-alpha.0\n```\n\nIt reads or locally initializes the durable transaction record and validates\navailable publish evidence. Remote durable refs and public Git ref finalization\nremain owned by `actions/promote-buildchain-ref`; the CLI inspection surface is\nfor preflight and recovery reasoning before a maintainer reruns or resumes a\npromotion.\n\n`buildchain npm dry-run` verifies the package shape before a release tag exists:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain npm dry-run --json\n```\n\nThe command validates `package.json`, infers the exact release tag\n`v${package.json.version}`, chooses npm dist-tag `alpha` for prereleases and\n`latest` for stable releases, runs `npm pack --dry-run --json`, and then runs\n`npm publish --dry-run --access public --tag <alpha|latest>` unless\n`--skip-npm-publish-dry-run` is passed. It never performs a real publish.\n\n## npm Publish Gate\n\nBuildchain's own npm package is published from\n`.github/workflows/buildchain-ref-promotion.yml`, inside the same publish\ntransaction that promotes release refs:\n\n- `v2.0.13-alpha.0` publishes to npm with dist-tag `alpha`.\n- `v2.0.13` publishes to npm with dist-tag `latest`.\n- moving refs such as `v2`, `v2.0`, and `v2.0-alpha` do not match the publish\n  workflow and do not publish.\n\nThe promotion workflow uses npm Trusted Publishing through GitHub Actions OIDC.\nIt runs on a GitHub-hosted runner with `id-token: write`, but it does not\nmanually run the release-candidate resolver or promote action. Buildchain's own\ndogfood path calls the declarative `release-candidate-promote.yml` wrapper with\nchannel, target ref/SHA, PR-stage workflow, artifact, status-check, and passport\ninputs. The wrapper generates the version-state commit, runs\n`lifecycle.verify`, runs `lifecycle.publish`, writes Buildchain publish\nevidence, validates that evidence, and only then moves exact tags and floating\nrefs.\n\n```bash\nnode scripts/npm-publish-transaction.mjs\n```\n\nBefore the first real release, configure npm Trusted Publishing for:\n\n- package: `@kungfu-tech/buildchain`\n- repository: `kungfu-systems/buildchain`\n- workflow: `.github/workflows/buildchain-ref-promotion.yml`\n\nNo npm package is published by manual dispatch or ordinary branch builds.\nManual dispatch on `.github/workflows/npm-publish.yml` remains dry-run only, so\nmaintainers can verify package contents and npm publish shape before opening or\nmerging the release PR."
+      "markdown": "# Buildchain CLI, npm Package, and Toolkit API\n\nBuildchain is published as the public npm package\n`@kungfu-tech/buildchain`. The package contains the `buildchain` command,\nthe importable ESM toolkit APIs, and the local scripts needed to initialize and\nvalidate repositories before they use the reusable GitHub workflow surface.\n\nThe npm package is not the release authority. Release authority still comes\nfrom the protected Buildchain branch and tag state machine. npm publishing is a\nside effect of an exact release tag that has already been produced by that\nstate machine.\n\n## Install and Run\n\nUse the published package directly:\n\n```bash\nnpx @kungfu-tech/buildchain --help\nnpx @kungfu-tech/buildchain init --type package\nnpx @kungfu-tech/buildchain validate --require-version-state\n```\n\nOr install it in a repository:\n\n```bash\npnpm add -D @kungfu-tech/buildchain\npnpm exec buildchain validate\n```\n\nConsumers should pin the exact Buildchain version that was validated in their\nrepository. When dogfooding a fresh Buildchain release immediately after it is\npublished, pnpm may block the install through a minimum release-age policy. In\nthat case, add a temporary package/version-specific `minimumReleaseAgeExclude`\nentry, such as `@kungfu-tech/buildchain@2.2.5`, and remove it once the package\nhas aged past the normal policy window. Do not replace that with a broad\nregistry or scope-wide exclude.\n\nUse the package API directly inside JavaScript build scripts:\n\n```js\nimport { createBuildchainLogger } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/logging\";\n\nconst logger = createBuildchainLogger({ source: \"user\", component: \"build\" });\nawait logger.span(\"build.native\", { phase: \"build\" }, async () => {\n  await buildNativeArtifacts();\n});\n```\n\nThe standalone binary and CLI are for workflow steps, shell scripts, and\nnon-JavaScript environments. JavaScript code that already depends on\n`@kungfu-tech/buildchain` should import the toolkit API instead of spawning\n`npx buildchain` or a downloaded binary.\n\n## Node API and Package Exports\n\nBuildchain's public Node API is the package `exports` surface, not arbitrary\ninternal file paths. The npm package also ships\n`dist/site/node-api-registry.json` and exports it as\n`@kungfu-tech/buildchain/site/node-api-registry.json` so agents can enumerate\nthe supported imports from the installed package.\nFor navigation, start with `dist/site/capability-registry.json`: it groups\nmanuals, CLI commands, workflow/action inputs, Node exports, site pages, and KFD\nclaim facts by product capability before an agent chooses a concrete command or\nmanual.\n\nCurrent public import families include:\n\n```js\nimport * as buildchain from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain\";\nimport { createBuildchainLogger } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/logging\";\nimport { collectModuleBuildFacts } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/build-facts\";\nimport { checkHomebrewTap } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/homebrew\";\nimport { verifyKfd1ReleaseGate } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/kfd-gate\";\nimport { collectBadgeBundleFacts } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/badges\";\nimport { collectReadmeBadgeFacts } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/readme-badges\";\nimport { verifyReleasePassport } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/release-passport\";\nimport { createReleasePropagationPlan } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/release-propagation\";\nimport { planReleaseLineBootstrap } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/release-line-bootstrap\";\nimport { collectPublicSurfaceReverseAudit } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/public-surface-audit\";\nimport { createBuildchainLayoutDiscovery } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/buildchain-layout\";\nimport { createPortableDevCachePlan } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/portable-dev-cache\";\nimport contractWorld from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/site/buildchain-contract.json\" with { type: \"json\" };\nimport capabilityRegistry from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/site/capability-registry.json\" with { type: \"json\" };\nimport manualRegistry from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/site/manual-registry.json\" with { type: \"json\" };\nimport nodeApiRegistry from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/site/node-api-registry.json\" with { type: \"json\" };\nimport publicSurfaceAudit from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/site/public-surface-audit.json\" with { type: \"json\" };\n```\n\nUse `dist/site/manual-registry.json` to find the packaged operating manuals and\ntheir SHA-256 digests. Use `dist/site/buildchain-contract.json` to verify the\nfloating-ref contract world for a runtime such as `@v2`.\n\n## Commands\n\n`buildchain layout` is the stable machine question for repository layout. Tools\nsuch as Shifu should call it instead of copying `.buildchain/` path constants:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain layout --cwd /path/to/repository --json\n```\n\nThe result identifies the Buildchain version pin, repository root and config,\nthe canonical and currently resolved KFD-3 registry paths, and the KFD field\nused to declare Shifu jurisdiction. A repository is in Shifu's distribution\njurisdiction only when a KFD-3 surface explicitly declares\n`distribution.registrar=\"shifu\"`; the presence of Buildchain configuration is\nnot sufficient. The same contract is available through\n`createBuildchainLayoutDiscovery()` from\n`@kungfu-tech/buildchain/buildchain-layout`.\n\n`buildchain init` writes a starter `.buildchain/buildchain.toml` and a reusable workflow\ncaller at `.github/workflows/build.yml`.\n\n`buildchain portable-cache plan` turns a consumer-owned, secret-free manifest\ninto GitHub Actions cache inputs without letting each consumer invent key or\nrestore-prefix semantics. The exact key binds source SHA and the consumer plan\ndigest; the compatible restore prefix still requires the same provider schema,\nlayer, roots, runner image, platform/architecture, toolchain, dependency lock,\nand build profile.\n\n```bash\nbuildchain portable-cache plan \\\n  --manifest .buildchain/portable-cache.json \\\n  --output .buildchain/portable-cache-plan.json \\\n  --github-output \"$GITHUB_OUTPUT\"\n```\n\nThe emitted `cache-key`, `restore-keys`, and `cache-paths` values are intended\nfor pinned `actions/cache/restore` and `actions/cache/save` actions. After\nrestore and a consumer validation probe, seal the provider result:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain portable-cache receipt \\\n  --plan .buildchain/portable-cache-plan.json \\\n  --matched-key \"$CACHE_MATCHED_KEY\" \\\n  --cache-hit \"$CACHE_HIT\" \\\n  --validation-status pass \\\n  --cold-fallback-status passed \\\n  --output .buildchain/portable-cache-receipt.json\n```\n\nThe receipt distinguishes `exact`, `compatible`, `miss`, and `corrupt`.\nUnknown or contradictory provider evidence fails closed. A miss or corruption\nrequires the consumer's audited cold path; a cache never substitutes for the\nconsumer's current build or tests. Roots must be workspace-relative or under\n`~/`, and manifests cannot carry credentials, absolute host paths, or escape\nsegments. `cold-fallback-status=passed` qualifies a miss only after the current\nsource has completed its normal build and test path.\n\nSupported presets:\n\n- `--type package` for Node package repositories with pnpm, npm, or yarn.\n- `--type native` for CMake-style native projects.\n- `--type web-surface` for preview/staging/production site or app deployments.\n- `--type infra-contract` for provider-agnostic infrastructure contract\n  validation, observation, contract publication, and downstream propagation\n  planning without default mutation. Provider adapters expose built-in command\n  plans by default, and only configured `[infra.commands]` hooks can execute.\n- `--type publication-artifact` for papers, reports, specifications, and other\n  publication repositories that produce PDFs, metadata, source bundles, and\n  site-consumable manifests without becoming web-surface repositories. The\n  scaffold uses Buildchain's pinned\n  `ghcr.io/kungfu-systems/build-images/latex-pdf-builder:v1.2.0` toolchain for\n  LaTeX PDF builds.\n- `--type distribution-index` for Homebrew taps and other index repositories\n  whose files are projections of upstream release passport evidence.\n- `--type anchored-package` for packages whose version is anchored to an\n  explicit upstream release manifest.\n\nThe native preset includes an opt-in `[diagnostics.native]` profile with common\ntool/cache/artifact probes. Consumers can keep it enabled, adjust the tool and\ndirectory lists, or disable it if a repository does not need native diagnostics.\n\n`buildchain validate` parses `.buildchain/buildchain.toml`, checks configured version-state\nfiles, and can require named lifecycle stages:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain validate \\\n  --require-version-state \\\n  --require-lifecycle-stages install,build,verify\n```\n\n`buildchain lifecycle run <stage>` executes a lifecycle stage and writes the\nsame deterministic artifact manifest contract used by the reusable workflow:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain lifecycle run build \\\n  --artifact-path dist \\\n  --artifact-name \"{repo}-{version}-{platform}\"\n```\n\n`buildchain dev merge-queue` plans a GitHub merge-queue policy for a protected\nBuildchain dev channel. Declare every workflow that emits a required check; the\ncommand fails closed unless each file handles both `pull_request` and\n`merge_group` without reading `github.event.pull_request` directly:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain dev merge-queue \\\n  --repository kungfu-systems/example \\\n  --branch dev/v4/v4.0 \\\n  --workflow .github/workflows/source-acceptance.yml \\\n  --workflow .github/workflows/affected-native-pr.yml\n```\n\nThe default output is a read-only plan. Add `--apply` only after reviewing it.\nApply creates the exact-branch merge-queue ruleset before changing classic\nrequired status checks from strict to loose, preserves the required check\nidentities, and is safe to repeat. `gh` must be authenticated with repository\nAdministration write permission for apply mode.\n\n`buildchain release line open` plans or writes the first version-state commit\nfor a new semver minor line. It does not publish anything. The dry-run mode is\nthe default and returns the dev/alpha/release refs, protection contract, default\nbranch action, and initial version before any GitHub mutation happens:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain release line open \\\n  --major 2 \\\n  --minor 10 \\\n  --source-ref release/v2/v2.9 \\\n  --json\n```\n\nThe write mode only updates local version-state files. The repository workflow\n`Release Line Bootstrap` wraps this command and, when `apply=true`, commits the\ninitial version state, creates `dev/vX/vX.Y`, `alpha/vX/vX.Y`, and\n`release/vX/vX.Y`, applies one-review branch protection, switches the default\nbranch, and opens the first dev-to-alpha channel PR:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain release line open \\\n  --major 2 \\\n  --minor 10 \\\n  --source-ref release/v2/v2.9 \\\n  --write \\\n  --json\n```\n\n`buildchain` also publishes a public surface reverse audit as\n`dist/site/public-surface-audit.json`. The audit enumerates CLI commands from\n`bin/buildchain.mjs`, workflow inputs, action inputs, site pages, and docs\ncommand references, then compares them with the generated registries. Buildchain\nself-checks fail closed when an enumerable public surface is missing from the\nregistry:\n\n```js\nimport {\n  collectPublicSurfaceReverseAudit,\n  assertPublicSurfaceReverseAudit,\n} from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/public-surface-audit\";\n\nassertPublicSurfaceReverseAudit(collectPublicSurfaceReverseAudit({ root: process.cwd() }));\n```\n\n`buildchain kfd` is the product-facing KFD namespace. Schema commands expose the\nmachine-readable KFD standards shipped by `@kungfu-tech/kfd`, while versioned\nsubcommands host concrete product workflows. KFD-1, KFD-2, and KFD-3 are\nfirst-class Buildchain surfaces. KFD-4 is schema-only until Buildchain has a\nreal verification protocol for it.\n\n`status` reports implemented support and the active repo-owned file layout.\n`migrate-layout` moves legacy root files into `.buildchain/`:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain kfd status --json\nbuildchain kfd migrate-layout --write\n```\n\nKFD-1 commands generate and validate contract-world release evidence:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain kfd 1 schema --json\nbuildchain kfd 1 witness --json\nbuildchain kfd 1 gate --witness-json kfd-1-witness.json --json\nbuildchain kfd 1 verify --gate-json kfd-1-gate.json --json\n```\n\nKFD-2 commands validate trust taxonomy entries and generate Buildchain's public\nclaim evidence. Product repositories use the `product-claims` subcommand to\nvalidate and render their own declared KFD-2 release claims under the canonical\nBuildchain KFD layout:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain kfd 2 schema --json\nbuildchain kfd 2 taxonomy --entry-json residual-risk.json --kind residualRisk --json\nbuildchain kfd 2 claims --json\nbuildchain kfd 2 product-claims check --json\nbuildchain kfd 2 product-claims write --json\nbuildchain kfd 2 product-claims render --json\n```\n\nThe default source is `.buildchain/kfd/kfd-2/registry.json`; outputs are\n`.buildchain/kfd/kfd-2/release-claims.json`, per-claim release-passport inputs\nunder `claims/`, and `buildchain-claim-args.txt`. Use `--registry` or\n`--output-dir` only for an explicit product packaging projection. `check` never\nwrites and exits non-zero when outputs drift.\n\nKFD-3 commands are separate from Buildchain's self reverse audit: products can\ndetect standard public surfaces, register the accepted boundary, audit the\ncurrent source or artifact tree, generate a release-passport-compatible witness,\nand expose a capability map for agents:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain kfd schema list --json\nbuildchain kfd schema show kfd-3 --json\nbuildchain kfd 3 detect --kind node-api --kind cli --json\nbuildchain kfd 3 register node-api --product Buildchain\nbuildchain kfd 3 audit --json\nbuildchain kfd 3 witness --kind prebuild --output .buildchain/kfd/kfd-3/collaboration-interface.prebuild.json\nbuildchain kfd 3 query buildchain --json\nbuildchain kfd 4 schema --json\n```\n\nThe public Node API is exported from `@kungfu-tech/buildchain/kfd`. See\n[`kfd-support.md`](kfd-support.md) for the detected / declared / enforced model\nand the agent query flow.\n\nLifecycle runs also write a Buildchain observability JSONL log at\n`.buildchain/logs/events.jsonl` by default. Framework events use\n`source=buildchain`; consumer lifecycle commands use `source=user`. This lets a\nmaintainer tell apart time spent inside Buildchain's artifact/manifest\nframework from time spent in the repository's own build, test, packaging, or\npublish commands. The artifact manifest and summary embed the observability\nsummary for that lifecycle run id, so uploaded artifacts preserve the timing\nfacts without mixing in older JSONL events.\n\n`buildchain log`, `buildchain mark`, and `buildchain span` expose the same event\nprotocol to repository scripts:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain mark --event configure.ready --phase configure --attribute target=release\nbuildchain span --event native.build --phase build -- cmake --build build\nbuildchain log warn --event cache.miss --component conan --attribute token=hidden\nbuildchain log summary --json\nbuildchain verify observability-log .buildchain/logs/events.jsonl --min-events 4 --require-phase build\nbuildchain diagnostics summary .buildchain/artifacts/*/diagnostics.json --json\nbuildchain sample process-tree --label native-build --interval-ms 15000 -- make -j20\n```\n\nDuring `buildchain lifecycle run`, child processes receive\n`BUILDCHAIN_LOG_PATH` and `BUILDCHAIN_LOG_RUN_ID`. A shell, Python, CMake, Conan,\nor JavaScript helper can call `buildchain mark` or `buildchain span` mid-build\nand have those events grouped into the same lifecycle summary.\n`buildchain verify observability-log` is a release gate: it fails when the log\nis missing, has too few events, contains error events, or does not include\nrequired phases, components, or event names.\n\nThe event protocol is JSONL and is also available from the SDK:\n\n```js\nimport { createBuildchainLogger } from \"@kungfu-tech/buildchain/logging\";\n\nconst logger = createBuildchainLogger({ source: \"user\", component: \"native-build\" });\nlogger.mark(\"configure.ready\", { phase: \"configure\" });\n```\n\nSecret-looking attribute keys such as `token`, `password`, `secret`,\n`authorization`, `cookie`, and `private-key` are redacted before they are written.\nFull command strings are not recorded by `span`; scripts should provide stable\nevent names and safe attributes instead.\n\n`buildchain diagnostics summary` reads one or more small diagnostics artifacts\nand emits the same cross-platform summary as the diagnostics SDK:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain diagnostics summary \\\n  .buildchain/artifacts/linux-x64/diagnostics.json \\\n  .buildchain/artifacts/macos-arm64/diagnostics.json \\\n  --output .buildchain/artifacts/diagnostics-summary.json \\\n  --json\n```\n\nThe JSON summary keeps per-platform lifecycle stage tables, adds lifecycle\ntotal durations, carries top slow spans, aggregates warning/error counts, and\nsorts the slowest platforms. Each platform row carries compact runner facts,\nchecked tool versions/missing tools, package manager/cache directory details,\ncompiler-cache availability, and a compact process sampler summary: requested\nparallelism, observed max active processes, the ratio between them, sample\ncount, process categories, and the top sampled command basenames. This lets\nmaintainers inspect matrix timing, runner, tool, cache, and concurrency context\nwithout downloading large platform binaries or process sidecars first.\nWhen a sibling `diagnostics-manifest.json` is available, the summary also records\nits file list and verifies the listed `diagnostics.json` byte count and sha256.\nMissing, unreadable, or mismatched sidecar manifests are reported through\n`diagnosticsManifestWarningCount` and the per-platform `diagnosticsManifest`\nfield without failing the timing rollup.\nThe summary also compares each `diagnostics.json` contract to\n`BUILDCHAIN_DIAGNOSTICS_CONTRACT`; mismatches are reported through\n`diagnosticsContractWarningCount` and the per-platform `diagnosticsContract`\nfield so reviewers can separate diagnostics schema drift from lifecycle\nwarnings or build failures.\n\nWithout `--json`, the command prints a compact lifecycle timing table with\ninstall/build/verify/publish, artifact scan/upload, total, warning, and error\ncolumns for each platform, plus `jobs` and `active` columns for requested and\nobserved process concurrency when sampler data is present.\n\n`buildchain facts` collects and verifies source/version/output facts for\nmodules and products:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain facts module \\\n  --module native-core \\\n  --output .buildchain/facts/native-core.json \\\n  --legacy-kungfu-buildinfo framework/core/src/kungfu/yijinjing/kungfubuildinfo.json\n\nbuildchain facts aggregate \\\n  --product kungfu \\\n  --module-fact .buildchain/facts/native-core.json \\\n  --artifact dist/kungfu.zip \\\n  --output .buildchain/facts/kungfu.json\n\nbuildchain facts verify --fact .buildchain/facts/kungfu.json\n```\n\nThe same implementation is available from\n`@kungfu-tech/buildchain/build-facts`. Release passports can include these\nfacts with repeated `--build-facts-json` arguments to\n`buildchain collect github-release`. See\n[`build-facts.md`](build-facts.md) for the config schema and Node API.\n\n`buildchain sample process-tree` wraps a long-running command and periodically\nwrites process-tree snapshots:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain sample process-tree \\\n  --label native-build \\\n  --interval-ms 15000 \\\n  --output .buildchain/diagnostics/process-samples.jsonl \\\n  --summary-output .buildchain/diagnostics/process-summary.json \\\n  -- \\\n  make -j20\n```\n\nThe command returns the wrapped command's exit status. The JSONL file contains\nsmall timestamped samples; the summary JSON records requested parallelism,\nobserved concurrency, sampled CPU, command categories, and top command\nbasenames. Use it when a native build requests high parallelism but appears to\nspend long stretches in low-concurrency compile, archive, link, or cache steps.\n\n`buildchain doctor` checks repository readiness before remote side effects:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain doctor --json\n```\n\nIt validates `.buildchain/buildchain.toml`, package-manager detection, Git repository state,\nand the reusable workflow caller. For `version.strategy = \"anchored\"` with\n`version.next = \"manual\"`, it also embeds the anchored package release contract\ncheck: anchor manifest readability, configured version files, trusted\npublishing, package publish order, and required lifecycle stages. Add\n`--require-publish-source-lock` inside a publish job when the doctor report\nshould also fail unless the job is running from a resolved `publish-gate/*`\nsource lock.\n\nAnchored/manual package publish jobs can run the narrower source-lock gate\ndirectly:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain publish-source validate-anchored-release --json\n```\n\nThe command requires `BUILDCHAIN_PUBLISH_SOURCE_REF`,\n`BUILDCHAIN_PUBLISH_SOURCE_SHA`, and `BUILDCHAIN_PUBLISH_SOURCE_LOCKED` from the\nreusable build workflow outputs. It fails closed for direct `alpha/*` or\n`release/*` channel-branch publication, and checks the publish-gate consumer\nversion against configured version files and the anchor manifest. The JSON\nresult is shaped for future `buildchain.libkungfu.dev` fact ingestion.\n\n`buildchain release`, `buildchain web-surface`, `buildchain infra-contract`,\n`buildchain publication-artifact`, `buildchain publish-source`,\n`buildchain badges`, `buildchain homebrew`, and `buildchain build-contract`\nroute to the same implementation used by\nBuildchain's package APIs or GitHub Actions workflows. This keeps local\ninspection and CI behavior on the same implementation path.\n\nGenerate publication artifact metadata after building a paper or report:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain publication-artifact manifest \\\n  --source-sha \"$(git rev-parse HEAD)\" \\\n  --json\n```\n\nGenerate the Buildchain-owned npm paper package contents from declared\npublication facts:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain publication-artifact npm-package --json\n```\n\nThis command reads `project.type = \"publication-artifact\"`,\n`publication.version`, and `[publish] kind = \"npm-paper-package\"` plus\n`publish.package`; it writes `.buildchain/publication/npm-package` by default.\nThe `paper-release.yml@v2` reusable workflow uses the same command before\nrunning the standard npm publish transaction.\n\nThe command writes `.buildchain/publication/publication-artifact.json`,\n`.buildchain/publication/publication-artifact-passport.json`, a source bundle,\nand, when `[publication.archive]` is configured,\n`.buildchain/publication/publication-registry.json` by default. See\n[`publication-artifacts.md`](publication-artifacts.md) for the repository\ncontract, pinned LaTeX builder, and reusable workflow.\n\nGenerate, check, or update the managed README badge block:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain badges readme --json\nbuildchain badges readme --check\nbuildchain badges readme --write\nbuildchain badges bundle --json\nbuildchain badges bundle --check\nbuildchain badges bundle --write\nbuildchain badges bundle --claims kfd-1,release-passport --write\n```\n\nThe `--json` form emits the `kungfu-buildchain-readme-badge-facts` object.\n`--check` fails closed when the README marker block is missing or stale.\n`--write` inserts or replaces only the marked block. KFD passed badges come\nfrom the repository's own verified release passport; unreleased repositories\ndowngrade to explicit local declarations such as `declared`, `aligned`, or\n`planned`. `buildchain badges bundle` is the focused trust-badge entrypoint: it\nemits `kungfu-buildchain-badge-bundle-facts` and defaults to KFD-1, KFD-2,\nKFD-3, and Release Passport. See [`readme-badges.md`](readme-badges.md) for the\nmarker contract and `[badges]` / `[badges.bundle]` configuration.\n\nGenerate or check Homebrew tap projections from upstream release passports:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain homebrew update-formula \\\n  --package buildchain \\\n  --release-passport https://github.com/kungfu-systems/buildchain/releases/download/v2.8.15/buildchain.release.json \\\n  --write\n\nbuildchain homebrew check --json\n```\n\n`update-formula` writes `Formula/buildchain.rb` and `tap-manifest.json` from\nupstream release passport evidence. `check` fails closed when the Formula,\nmanifest, artifact digests, or KFD status drift from the upstream passport. See\n[`homebrew.md`](homebrew.md) for the distribution-index project contract.\n\n`buildchain collect github-release` creates a release passport bundle from\nGitHub Release assets or a local asset directory:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain collect github-release \\\n  --tag v2.2.0 \\\n  --repository kungfu-systems/buildchain \\\n  --assets-dir dist \\\n  --output-dir .buildchain/release-passport\n```\n\nThe bundle includes `buildchain.release.json`, `artifact-evidence.json`,\n`impact.json`, `agent-index.json`, `product-mechanism.json`, `check-report.json`,\nand `llms.txt`. Production binary distribution defaults to GitHub-hosted\nrunners so other projects can reproduce the release lane; self-hosted runners\nremain compatibility fixtures and are recorded as runner facts when used.\n\nFor publish-transaction releases, pass the additional evidence inputs so\n`buildchain.release.json` becomes the unified passport instead of a binary-only\nasset summary:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain collect github-release \\\n  --tag v2.3.2 \\\n  --repository kungfu-systems/buildchain \\\n  --assets-dir dist \\\n  --publish-evidence-json .buildchain/release-evidence/v2.3.2/evidence.json \\\n  --transaction-json .buildchain/release-state/v2.3.2/state.json \\\n  --package-set-json package-set.json \\\n  --impact-json impact.json \\\n  --trusted-publishing-json trusted-publishing.json \\\n  --anchor-manifest-json libnode.release.json \\\n  --build-summary-json .buildchain/artifacts/build-summary.json \\\n  --platform-manifest-json .buildchain/artifacts/linux-x64/manifest.json \\\n  --platform-manifest-json .buildchain/artifacts/darwin-arm64/manifest.json \\\n  --platform-manifest-json .buildchain/artifacts/win32-x64/manifest.json \\\n  --dist-tag-evidence-json .buildchain/release-evidence/v2.3.2/dist-tag-evidence.json \\\n  --kfd-1-witness-json .buildchain/kfd/kfd-1/contract-world.witness.json \\\n  --kfd-2-claim-json .buildchain/kfd/kfd-2/release-claims.json \\\n  --kfd-3-prebuild-witness-json .buildchain/kfd/kfd-3/collaboration-interface.prebuild.json \\\n  --kfd-3-artifact-verify-cmd \"kungfu agent verify --json\" \\\n  --release-extra-json '{\"channel\":\"release\",\"targetRef\":\"release/v2/v2.3\"}' \\\n  --output-dir .buildchain/release-passport\n```\n\nThe generated passport records the main and platform packages, npm dist-tags,\npublished versions, release source/ref state, anchor manifest digest, registry\nartifact digests, trusted publishing evidence, and Buildchain transaction\nresult. It also records `buildSummary`, `platformArtifactManifests`, and\n`distTagPromotion` when those JSON inputs are supplied. `packageSet` keeps the\nordered package set; `publish.packages[]` is the agent-readable npm publication\nsummary for each main/platform package. For Buildchain releases, verification\nexpects the supplied package set to include the main package plus the three\nplatform packages with version, dist-tag, and digest evidence. Verification\nfails closed if supplied sections are internally incomplete or point to\nartifacts without matching evidence.\n\n`--kfd-1-witness-json` attaches a KFD-1 contract-world release gate. The witness\nis structured JSON: consumers declare the contract world, canonical JSON policy,\nartifact paths, and expected SHA-256 digests. Buildchain imports KFD-owned\nmetadata from `@kungfu-tech/kfd`, freezes the witness before build publication,\nthen verifies the resulting artifact bytes itself and writes the evidence under\nthe KFD-provided top-level key currently named `kfd-1`. Consumers should not\nduplicate this by running repository-specific scripts or invoking the Kungfu\nSDK from their release workflow.\n\nFor the KFD repository, KFD-1 witnesses may be self-hosted standard-contract\nwitnesses: docs, schemas, standards metadata, package exports, and\nsite-consumption entrypoints are checked from source hashes to packaged artifact\nhashes, and the passport records schema IDs, self-hosting boundary, result, and\nresponsibility state.\n\n`--kfd-2-claim-json` attaches explicit public release claims to the KFD-2\nrelease trust passport audit. Buildchain also derives KFD-2 claims from KFD-1\nand KFD-3 gate evidence. Public claims must bind declared sources,\nmachine-readable evidence, hashes, artifact coordinates, verification results,\naudit boundary, responsibility state, and residual risk. Unbound claims fail\npassport verification; prose-only claims downgrade the KFD-2 audit and emit a\nwarning.\n\n`--kfd-3-prebuild-witness-json` attaches a KFD-3 collaboration-interface\nrelease gate. The product remains the source of truth: it emits a pre-build\nwitness that contains or points to its KFD-3 collaboration interface, declared\nparticipant-facing public surfaces, and registry digest. Buildchain freezes\nthat declaration before publication. The artifact side is supplied either by\n`--kfd-3-artifact-witness-json` or by a product-owned command such as\n`--kfd-3-artifact-verify-cmd \"kungfu agent verify --json\"`. Buildchain then\nchecks closure: every declared shipped public surface must be present in the\nartifact witness, and every artifact-exposed participant-facing public surface\nmust have been declared. The generated passport writes this evidence under the\nKFD-provided top-level key currently named `kfd-3`.\n\nThis gate is useful for agent-facing products because it turns KFD-3 from prose\ninto release evidence. A package cannot claim KFD-3 collaboration-interface\nsupport merely because the docs mention it; the release passport must show the\nfrozen declaration, the artifact-side witness digest, and a passing closure\ncomparison.\nFor the KFD repository itself, the witness can declare docs, schemas, standards\nmetadata, package exports, and site-consumption contracts as grouped public\nsurfaces; the artifact witness must expose the same enumerable package/site\nsurfaces or verification fails closed.\n\n`--impact-json` supplies the surface-aware impact ledger. Production release\npassports (`release/*`) and major publish-gate passports require\n`surfaceImpacts[]`; alpha, local, and legacy passport contexts keep it\noptional. When `surfaceImpacts[]` is required or supplied, the verifier requires\neach entry to include an id, impact, and rationale, and requires\n`versionImpact.final` to match the highest declared surface impact. The\ncollector copies `versionImpact` plus `surfaceImpacts` into\n`buildchain.release.json`. This lets\n`buildchain explain release --for agent --json` state why a release is patch,\nminor, or major instead of relying on file-path memory.\n\nBuildchain dogfoods its observability toolkit in this lane. The standalone\nbuilder writes API-generated events, while the workflow uses `buildchain mark`,\n`buildchain span`, `buildchain verify observability-log`, and `buildchain log\nsummary`; the event logs and summaries are published as release passport assets.\n\nVerify and explain release passports:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain verify release-passport .buildchain/release-passport/buildchain.release.json\nbuildchain explain release --passport .buildchain/release-passport/buildchain.release.json --for agent --json\nbuildchain inspect release --passport .buildchain/release-passport/buildchain.release.json\n```\n\nThe verifier fails closed when required protocol files are absent, artifacts are\nnot covered by evidence, or digests disagree. The explanation output is shaped\nfor agents: trust, completeness, impact, recovery route, and next action.\n\nVerify a published artifact by subject:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain verify artifact ./Kungfu-2.8.0-windows-x64.exe\nbuildchain inspect artifact ./Kungfu-2.8.0-windows-x64.exe --json\nbuildchain explain artifact ./Kungfu-2.8.0-windows-x64.exe --for agent --json\nbuildchain verify artifact npm:@kungfu-tech/libnode@22.22.3-kf.3-alpha.18 \\\n  --repository kungfu-systems/libnode \\\n  --tag v22.22.3-kf.3-alpha.18 \\\n  --json\n```\n\n`verify artifact` computes or obtains the subject digest, discovers the\ndetached release passport, verifies the passport, then requires that the\nsubject digest appears in the passport's release assets, package set, publish\nevidence, or artifact evidence. Outcomes are explicit: `pass`, `fail`, or\n`unverifiable`. A filename is only a hint; trust comes from digest equality.\nFor `npm:<name>@<version>` subjects, Buildchain resolves `dist.integrity` from\nthe npm registry before matching passport evidence. Use `--npm-registry <url>`\nto verify packages from a custom registry; otherwise Buildchain uses\n`npm_config_registry` or `https://registry.npmjs.org/`.\n\nDiscovery is fail-closed and ordered:\n\n1. `--passport <file-or-url>`.\n2. Sidecar pointer, such as `<artifact>.buildchain-passport.json`.\n3. Embedded/package pointer, such as `package.json` `buildchain.releasePassport`.\n4. Local config or org index, such as `.buildchain/artifact-passport-locators.json`.\n5. GitHub Release default discovery from `github-release:` subjects, GitHub\n   Release asset URLs, or `--repository <owner/repo> --tag <tag>`.\n6. Custom `--locator-config <json-or-url>`.\n7. `unverifiable` with retry guidance.\n\nLocator files are policy, not protocol. They map subject fields such as\n`name`, `kind`, `version`, `digest`, `repository`, or `tag` to a detached\npassport location:\n\n```json\n{\n  \"schemaVersion\": 1,\n  \"contract\": \"kungfu-buildchain-artifact-passport-locator\",\n  \"locators\": [\n    {\n      \"match\": {\n        \"name\": \"Kungfu-2.8.0-windows-x64.exe\",\n        \"digest\": \"sha256:...\"\n      },\n      \"passport\": \"../release-passport/buildchain.release.json\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n```\n\nSupported subject shapes include local files and directories, URLs,\n`npm:<name>@<version>`, `oci:...`, `s3:...`,\n`github-release:<owner/repo>@<tag>/<asset>`, and deployment endpoints. Local\nfiles, directories, and URLs are digestable directly; remote package, OCI,\nobject storage, and deployment subjects should provide a digest or resolve to a\nlocator that records one.\n\nSeal an exact artifact verification with the Node API, then verify or project\nthe resulting KFX admission envelope without reconstructing its roots:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain verify artifact-envelope envelope.json \\\n  --assessment-time 150 \\\n  --expected-root sha256:... \\\n  --expected-issuer buildchain.libkungfu.dev \\\n  --expected-publisher kungfu-systems \\\n  --expected-contract buildchain.release/v1 \\\n  --json\n\nbuildchain project kfx-admission envelope.json \\\n  --assessment-time 150 \\\n  --json\n```\n\nBoth commands call the public artifact-verification-envelope verifier. The\nprojected `attestation`, `trustInputs`, and `kfdAssessment` are direct copies of\nthe sealed envelope, and `envelopeRoot` stays identical across Node and CLI.\nSee [`artifact-verification-envelope.md`](artifact-verification-envelope.md).\n\nVerify infra-contract lifecycle evidence bundles:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain infra-contract --mode ci --source-sha \"$GITHUB_SHA\"\nbuildchain verify infra-contract-evidence-bundle .buildchain/infra-contract-evidence-bundle.json\n```\n\nThe infra-contract `ci` mode is mutation-free. It writes validate, plan,\ncontract, propagation dry-run, evidence bundle, and verification JSON artifacts\nunder `.buildchain/`, giving reusable workflows one standard responsibility\nchain instead of hand-written command sequences.\n\nThe infra-contract verifier is read-only. It recomputes the bundle hash and\nchecks that desired, plan, approval, apply, observe, contract, and propagate\nevidence remain bound to the same contract artifact. It also recomputes the\nbundle validation summary, so stale or misleading summary booleans fail closed\neven when the bundle hash has been refreshed.\n\n`buildchain release --dry-run` explains the release-line state machine before a\nmaintainer opens or merges a channel PR:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain release --dry-run --target-ref alpha/v2/v2.2\nbuildchain release --dry-run --target-ref release/v2/v2.2 --sha <verified-sha>\nbuildchain release dry-run --target-ref publish-gate/major --source-ref release/v2/v2.2\nbuildchain release explain --target-ref alpha/v2/v2.1 --json\n```\n\nThis is a Buildchain-level dry-run, not an npm dry-run. It explains the legal\nsource branch, exact release or alpha tags, floating tags, channel branches,\nversion-state files, governance checks, and publish transaction behavior that\nwould apply if the corresponding PR merge were promoted. It does not move\nbranches, move tags, edit files, publish npm packages, or run lifecycle publish\ncommands. `release explain` is the same explanation surface with a clearer name.\nPass `--json` for a machine-readable plan.\n\n`buildchain transaction inspect` is the top-level recovery inspection command\nfor the publish transaction state:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain transaction inspect --version v2.1.0-alpha.0\n```\n\nIt reads or locally initializes the durable transaction record and validates\navailable publish evidence. Remote durable refs and public Git ref finalization\nremain owned by `actions/promote-buildchain-ref`; the CLI inspection surface is\nfor preflight and recovery reasoning before a maintainer reruns or resumes a\npromotion.\n\n`buildchain npm dry-run` verifies the package shape before a release tag exists:\n\n```bash\nbuildchain npm dry-run --json\n```\n\nThe command validates `package.json`, infers the exact release tag\n`v${package.json.version}`, chooses npm dist-tag `alpha` for prereleases and\n`latest` for stable releases, runs `npm pack --dry-run --json`, and then runs\n`npm publish --dry-run --access public --tag <alpha|latest>` unless\n`--skip-npm-publish-dry-run` is passed. It never performs a real publish.\n\n## npm Publish Gate\n\nBuildchain's own npm package is published from\n`.github/workflows/buildchain-ref-promotion.yml`, inside the same publish\ntransaction that promotes release refs:\n\n- `v2.0.13-alpha.0` publishes to npm with dist-tag `alpha`.\n- `v2.0.13` publishes to npm with dist-tag `latest`.\n- moving refs such as `v2`, `v2.0`, and `v2.0-alpha` do not match the publish\n  workflow and do not publish.\n\nThe promotion workflow uses npm Trusted Publishing through GitHub Actions OIDC.\nIt runs on a GitHub-hosted runner with `id-token: write`, but it does not\nmanually run the release-candidate resolver or promote action. Buildchain's own\ndogfood path calls the declarative `release-candidate-promote.yml` wrapper with\nchannel, target ref/SHA, PR-stage workflow, artifact, status-check, and passport\ninputs. The wrapper generates the version-state commit, runs\n`lifecycle.verify`, runs `lifecycle.publish`, writes Buildchain publish\nevidence, validates that evidence, and only then moves exact tags and floating\nrefs.\n\n```bash\nnode scripts/npm-publish-transaction.mjs\n```\n\nBefore the first real release, configure npm Trusted Publishing for:\n\n- package: `@kungfu-tech/buildchain`\n- repository: `kungfu-systems/buildchain`\n- workflow: `.github/workflows/buildchain-ref-promotion.yml`\n\nNo npm package is published by manual dispatch or ordinary branch builds.\nManual dispatch on `.github/workflows/npm-publish.yml` remains dry-run only, so\nmaintainers can verify package contents and npm publish shape before opening or\nmerging the release PR."

This map is meant to be readable by both a person skimming for the right doc\nand an agent grounding a specific claim.\n\nEach row carries a **plane** - *why* (intent / rationale), *verify* (trust the\nrunning artifact), *use* (consume / extend) - and a **status**:\n\n- `stable` - current and holds.\n- `draft` - exists, rough or incomplete.\n- `to write` - planned; the material exists but is not yet a single doc.\n- `retired` - intentionally not part of the active Buildchain v2 surface.\n\n## Capability Coverage\n\nThis package should be usable by an agent from the npm artifact alone. The\nmachine-readable `dist/site/` bundle is the first fact source; the Markdown\nmanuals explain those facts and give operator examples.\n\n`dist/site/capability-registry.json` is the capability navigation entrypoint.\nIt groups the public surface into stable product areas so sites and agents do\nnot have to infer structure from file names. Each page, manual, CLI command,\nworkflow, action, and Node API export also carries a `capabilityGroup`,\n`audience`, and `maturity` field in its own registry.\n\n| Capability group | Primary facts |

consumer.\n- A row's status must never claim more than the artifact delivers.\n- `why` documents explain intent and design pressure; `verify` and `use`\n  documents should state what is guaranteed, where to verify it, and the current\n  maturity of that guarantee."
+      "markdown": "# Documentation Map\n\nStart here. Find the question you have; follow it to the document that answers\nit. This map is meant to be readable by both a person skimming for the right doc\nand an agent grounding a specific claim.\n\nEach row carries a **plane** - *why* (intent / rationale), *verify* (trust the\nrunning artifact), *use* (consume / extend) - and a **status**:\n\n- `stable` - current and holds.\n- `draft` - exists, rough or incomplete.\n- `to write` - planned; the material exists but is not yet a single doc.\n- `retired` - intentionally not part of the active Buildchain v2 surface.\n\n## Capability Coverage\n\nThis package should be usable by an agent from the npm artifact alone. The\nmachine-readable `dist/site/` bundle is the first fact source; the Markdown\nmanuals explain those facts and give operator examples.\n\n`dist/site/capability-registry.json` is the capability navigation entrypoint.\nIt groups the public surface into stable product areas so sites and agents do\nnot have to infer structure from file names. Each page, manual, CLI command,\nworkflow, action, and Node API export also carries a `capabilityGroup`,\n`audience`, and `maturity` field in its own registry.\n\n| Capability group | Primary facts |
