-# Temporary Holding Version
+# @shieldaai/agent-guard-scenarios
 
-This version is a temporary placeholder for this package. An operational version to replace this has been submitted for review and is awaiting a staged release.
+Versioned protection scenarios and executable synthetic fixtures for the Agent Guard public API. Node.js 22+, ESM. Experimental alpha.
+
+```ts
+import { runConformance, scenarioCatalog } from '@shieldaai/agent-guard-scenarios';
+
+const report = await runConformance();
+console.log(report.passed, report.passedCases, report.caseCount);
+console.table(report.results);
+console.log(scenarioCatalog);
+```
+
+Run selected scenarios with `runConformance({ scenarioIds: ['S05', 'S08'] })`. The default suite executes malicious and benign variants of all ten scenarios. It checks handler invocations and synthetic effects, not merely decision objects. The built-in fixtures use no credentials, model calls, network services or destructive operations. A custom adapter is responsible for its own I/O.
+
+The scenarios cover unauthorized tools/resources, delegation, protected administration, sensitive export, action-bound approval, metadata drift, outbound secrets/canaries, revocation/control failures, tenants and budgets. The [scenario specification](https://github.com/ShieldaAI/agent-guard/blob/main/docs/scenarios.md) explains each boundary.
+
+The catalog version identifies the executed acceptance checks independently of the package version; compare reports using their `catalogVersion`. Version `1.1.0` strengthens the existing S08 race assertions and S10 charging checks and adds the per-variant timeout. It retains ten scenario identifiers and twenty paired cases. A pass from an older catalog does not establish coverage of newly added assertions.
+
+To exercise a compatible implementation, supply `createGuard(options)` in the options object. The factory must honor the provided clock and secret configuration and return the structural `GuardLike` API. Denials use the exported `GuardError` and its documented reason codes. Each fixture receives an isolated instance; no shared factory state is required.
+
+Each malicious or benign variant has a five-second asynchronous timeout. Override it with `caseTimeoutMs`, a positive integer up to `2147483647`. A timed-out variant receives a failed result and the runner continues with the next variant. The timer cannot interrupt blocking JavaScript or cancel unfinished adapter work; an adapter may retain resources or continue running after its result is reported. Use process isolation if the implementation under test needs a hard execution limit.
+
+A passing report applies to these fixtures in one process. It is not a security certification, injection-detector benchmark, MCP transport test or proof that a production agent cannot bypass its integration. Errors after actual handler invocation are tested separately from denials that must prevent invocation.
