- # HISTORY.md — Authoritative Specification
9
- > Version: 1.0 | Effective: 2026-05-22
10
-
11
- Every land-based project in the Place Fund ecosystem that satisfies the trigger predicate below
12
- MUST carry a `places/<prt_slug>/HISTORY.md` file in the regen-root monorepo.
13
- Skills that plan, scaffold, and validate real-estate PRT projects read this file to verify
14
- research provenance, lineage completeness, and research lifecycle status.
15
-
16
- ---
17
-
18
- ## Purpose
19
-
20
- `HISTORY.md` is the **land lineage record** for a Place Fund project — the authoritative
21
- document linking a `prt_projects` row to its physical, ecological, cultural, and regulatory
22
- history. It is NOT a marketing document. It is a research-grade provenance record that:
23
-
24
- - Provides due-diligence depth for regenerative land stewardship decisions
25
- - Anchors the project's data to verifiable primary sources (county records, PLSS, BLM, state archives)
26
- - Tracks research lifecycle from `draft` through `peer-reviewed` so consumers know what to trust
27
- - Enables the Place Fund's ecological and conservation underwriting to be audited independently
28
-
29
- A missing or stub `HISTORY.md` signals that research is pending. A `published` one signals
30
- that the record has been reviewed and is fit for external use.
31
-
32
- ---
33
-
34
- ## Trigger Predicate
35
-
36
- A `prt_projects` row **requires** a `places/<slug>/HISTORY.md` when ALL of:
37
-
38
- 1. `project_type IN ('ranch','eco-hospitality','mixed','conservation','regenerative-agriculture','real-estate','development')`
39
- 2. `name IS NOT NULL` (always true for active rows)
40
- 3. AT LEAST ONE OF:
41
- - `location_state IS NOT NULL`
42
- - `location_city IS NOT NULL`
43
- - `country IS NOT NULL`
44
- - `total_acres IS NOT NULL`
45
- - `lat IS NOT NULL`
46
- - `EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM geo_parcels WHERE project_id = prt_projects.id)`
47
- - `EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM geo_projects WHERE prt_project_id = prt_projects.id)` — a geo_projects join indicates real GIS data exists for this place, even if lat/lng on prt_projects is unset
48
-
49
- **Excluded by default:** `project_type IN ('credit','water','tech','regenerative-model')` — these
50
- are credit instruments or abstract models, not physical land parcels. Individual rows may be
51
- opted in manually by a supervisor if a composite history is warranted.
52
-
53
- As a SQL check (used by the validator):
54
-
55
- ```sql
56
- SELECT slug, name, project_type, location_state, location_city, country, total_acres, lat
57
- FROM prt_projects
58
- WHERE is_template IS NOT TRUE
59
- AND project_type IN ('ranch','eco-hospitality','mixed','conservation',
60
- 'regenerative-agriculture','real-estate','development')
61
- AND (
62
- location_state IS NOT NULL
63
- OR location_city IS NOT NULL
64
- OR country IS NOT NULL
65
- OR total_acres IS NOT NULL
66
- OR lat IS NOT NULL
67
- OR EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM geo_parcels WHERE project_id = prt_projects.id)
68
- OR EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM geo_projects WHERE prt_project_id = prt_projects.id)
69
- )
70
- ORDER BY slug;
71

- ### Field Reference
102
-
103
- | Field | Type | Required | Notes |
104
- |-------|------|----------|-------|

- ### `## Regulatory record`
177
-
178
- Legal, regulatory, and administrative context. Cover:
179
- - Zoning and land use designations
180
- - Conservation easements held by land trusts (ACE, TNC, CLT, etc.)
181
- - Water rights adjudications
182
- - Federal and state permits (grazing permits, NEPA actions, ESA consultations)
183
- - Tax status (agricultural classification, conservation land designation)
184

- ## File Location Convention
189

190
- ```
191
- C:/Dev/regen-root/places/<prt_slug>/HISTORY.md
192
- ```
193
-
194
- The directory is named using the **sanitized slug** — lowercase, no special characters,
195
- hyphens for separators. If `prt_projects.slug` contains uppercase letters (e.g. `Diamond`),
196
- the filesystem path uses `diamond/HISTORY.md` while `prt_slug` in frontmatter preserves
197
- the exact DB value (`Diamond`).

201
- ## Enforcement Layers
202
-
203
- ### Layer 1 — Workflow scaffold (`rdc:plan`)
204
-
205
- When `rdc:plan` creates a new `prt_projects` row with a qualifying `project_type`, it reads
206
- this spec and produces a stub `places/<slug>/HISTORY.md` from `scaffold/templates/HISTORY.md.template`.
207
- The stub is committed alongside the epic creation commit so the file is never absent from day one.
208
-
209
- ### Layer 2 — Validator script
210
-
211
- `C:/Dev/rdc-skills/scripts/validate-place-histories.js` runs in two modes:
212
-
213
- | Mode | Behavior | Exit code |
214
- |------|----------|-----------|
215
- | `--mode warn` (default) | Missing or malformed HISTORY.md emits WARN; exits 0 | 0 |
216
- | `--mode fail` | Missing or malformed HISTORY.md emits FAIL; exits 1 | 1 |
217
-
218
- The validator is wired into the `rdc-skills` `prepack` step (warn mode) so it runs on every
219
- package publish and surfaces gaps without blocking.
220
-
221
- ### Layer 3 — Optional DB gate (future)
222
-
223
- A `history_md_status` column on `prt_projects` can mirror `research_status` from frontmatter
224
- via a sync script. This enables Supabase-side filtering of projects by research completeness.
225
- Not implemented in v1 — planned for a future epic.
226
-

228
-
229
- ## Consumer Integration
230
-
231
- ### `rdc:plan`
232
-
233
- When scaffolding a new real-estate PRT project:
234
- 1. Check if `project_type` satisfies the trigger predicate.
235
- 2. If yes: hydrate `HISTORY.md.template` with DB row metadata and write `places/<slug>/HISTORY.md`.
236
- 3. Commit the stub alongside the epic creation commit.
237
-
238
- ### `rdc:review` / `rdc:build`
239
-
240
- When the build scope touches `apps/prt/`:
241
- 1. Run `node C:/Dev/rdc-skills/scripts/validate-place-histories.js --mode warn`.
242
- 2. Surface any WARN lines in the review output.
243
- 3. Do not block on warn — block only on FAIL (malformed frontmatter).

+ # HISTORY.md — Authoritative Specification
9
+ > Version: 1.0 | Effective: 2026-05-22
10
+
11
+ Every land-based project in the Place Fund ecosystem that satisfies the trigger predicate below
12
+ MUST carry a `places/<prt_slug>/HISTORY.md` file in the regen-root monorepo.
13
+ Skills that plan, scaffold, and validate real-estate PRT projects read this file to verify
14
+ research provenance, lineage completeness, and research lifecycle status.
15
+
16
+ ---
17
+
18
+ ## Purpose
19
+
20
+ `HISTORY.md` is the **land lineage record** for a Place Fund project — the authoritative
21
+ document linking a `prt_projects` row to its physical, ecological, cultural, and regulatory
22
+ history. It is NOT a marketing document. It is a research-grade provenance record that:
23
+
24
+ - Provides due-diligence depth for regenerative land stewardship decisions
25
+ - Anchors the project's data to verifiable primary sources (county records, PLSS, BLM, state archives)
26
+ - Tracks research lifecycle from `draft` through `peer-reviewed` so consumers know what to trust
27
+ - Enables the Place Fund's ecological and conservation underwriting to be audited independently
28
+
29
+ A missing or stub `HISTORY.md` signals that research is pending. A `published` one signals
30
+ that the record has been reviewed and is fit for external use.
31
+
32
+ ---
33
+
34
+ ## Trigger Predicate
35
+
36
+ A `prt_projects` row **requires** a `places/<slug>/HISTORY.md` when ALL of:
37
+
38
+ 1. `project_type IN ('ranch','eco-hospitality','mixed','conservation','regenerative-agriculture','real-estate','development')`
39
+ 2. `name IS NOT NULL` (always true for active rows)
40
+ 3. AT LEAST ONE OF:
41
+ - `location_state IS NOT NULL`
42
+ - `location_city IS NOT NULL`
43
+ - `country IS NOT NULL`
44
+ - `total_acres IS NOT NULL`
45
+ - `lat IS NOT NULL`
46
+ - `EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM geo_parcels WHERE project_id = prt_projects.id)`
47
+ - `EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM geo_projects WHERE prt_project_id = prt_projects.id)` — a geo_projects join indicates real GIS data exists for this place, even if lat/lng on prt_projects is unset
48
+
49
+ **Excluded by default:** `project_type IN ('credit','water','tech','regenerative-model')` — these
50
+ are credit instruments or abstract models, not physical land parcels. Individual rows may be
51
+ opted in manually by a supervisor if a composite history is warranted.
52
+
53
+ As a SQL check (used by the validator):
54
+
55
+ ```sql
56
+ SELECT slug, name, project_type, location_state, location_city, country, total_acres, lat
57
+ FROM prt_projects
58
+ WHERE is_template IS NOT TRUE
59
+ AND project_type IN ('ranch','eco-hospitality','mixed','conservation',
60
+ 'regenerative-agriculture','real-estate','development')
61
+ AND (
62
+ location_state IS NOT NULL
63
+ OR location_city IS NOT NULL
64
+ OR country IS NOT NULL
65
+ OR total_acres IS NOT NULL
66
+ OR lat IS NOT NULL
67
+ OR EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM geo_parcels WHERE project_id = prt_projects.id)
68
+ OR EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM geo_projects WHERE prt_project_id = prt_projects.id)
69
+ )
70
+ ORDER BY slug;

122
+
123
+ | Value | Meaning |
124
+ |-------|---------|
125
+ | `draft` | Stub created; no primary-source research yet |
126

+ The validator will fail if `research_status` is not one of the four allowed values.
132
+
133

134
+
135
+ ## Required Body Sections
136
+
137
+ The body of `HISTORY.md` must contain all five section headings in order. Each section may
138
+ contain a TODO marker during draft status; it must contain substantive prose at `published`.
