-
## Record the evidence
|
|
48
|
-
|
|
49
|
-
Put the tarball name, sha256, **the commit it was built from**, exact platform/client
|
|
50
|
-
facts, fallback result, and known limitations in `docs/release-evidence/v0.3.0.md` and
|
|
51
|
-
the current `CHANGELOG.md` release table. A release without them is a release nobody can
|
|
52
|
-
audit later. Test count is deliberately left out: nothing verifies it, so it only
|
|
53
|
-
decorates or, when it drifts, misleads.
|
|
54
|
-
|
|
55
|
-
The commit matters because every workspace travels inside the tarball, so any
|
|
56
|
-
change to shipped code changes the digest. A digest recorded alone goes stale
|
|
57
|
-
on the next merge and then reads as a false claim about the current tree
|
|
58
|
-
rather than a true one about an older commit. `verify-package.mjs` prints
|
|
59
|
-
both on one line for exactly this reason, and refuses to imply
|
|
60
|
-
reproducibility when the working tree is dirty:
|
|
61
|
-
|
|
62
|
-
```text
|
|
63
|
-
PASS agents-can-communicate-0.0.0.tgz sha256 a5c8bb1d… built from 39d0dcf
|
|
64
|
-
```
|
|
43
|
+
Replace `path/to/reviewed-file` with each explicit path you just reviewed. Never use
|
|
44
|
+
`git add .` or `git add -A` in this procedure: an unrelated file does not become release
|
|
45
|
+
content merely because it shares a worktree. Check `git diff --cached --name-status` before
|
|
46
|
+
committing and stop if `git status --short` after the commit is not empty.

changed since the recorded commit, and names the files. A shallow clone that
|
|
70
|
-
does not have the commit reports that instead of failing — the check is of
|
|
71
|
-
the record, not of the checkout depth.
|
|
48
|
+
Never bypass the pre-push hook. The full suite belongs after commit B because the
|
|
49
|
+
recorded-candidate gate deliberately includes working-tree and committed packed changes;
|
|
50
|
+
before refreshed evidence exists, that one check is expected to fail.
|
|
72

release gate. Pack and verify clean commit A, then commit B records its digest and evidence
|
|
75
|
-
only in files that are not packed. Never record a dirty-tree digest: changing a packed file
|
|
76
|
-
after commit A means making a new candidate commit and packing again.

`verify-package.mjs` installs the supplied tarball into a clean directory with no workspace
|

62

symlinks, then exercises doctor, a non-Git workspace, client install/uninstall, bundled
|
|
63
|

workspaces, certification evidence, and packed documentation links. It rejects tests,

When passed an existing tarball, the verifier intentionally prints `revision unknown`:
|
|
68
|
+
the current checkout cannot prove which commit produced arbitrary supplied bytes. Record
|
|
69
|
+
`$candidate_commit`, captured while the tree was clean immediately before packing, as the
|
|
70
|
+
artifact's source. Running the verifier without a tarball makes it pack the current tree
|
|
71
|
+
itself and can report that tree's revision, but it does not verify a separately saved
|
|
72
|
+
release artifact.

The staged-set review for commit B must name only those two evidence files. The final full
|
|
95
|
+
suite now sees candidate A's packed bytes plus candidate B's matching record, so candidate
|
|
96
|
+
freshness is a normal passing gate rather than an expected failure.
|
|
97
|
+
|
|
98
|
+
Published evidence is history. Do not rewrite it into a current capability claim; later
|
|
99
|
+
work belongs under `Unreleased` and gets a new candidate record.

100
|

|

101
|

## Capture only capabilities you observed
|
|
102
|
+
|
|
103
|
+
Run native real-client checks only on the versions and platforms where retained fixtures
|
|
104
|
+
prove that boundary. Exact-version evidence governs normal-turn and guard behavior. Claude
|
|
105
|
+
Code live delivery instead uses its captured macOS arm64 minimum plus a current feature
|
|
106
|
+
probe and per-session handshake, and its vendor development-channel warning remains part
|
|
107
|
+
of startup. Codex's queue capture passed but live delivery was withdrawn because the
|
|
108
|
+
required mode hides session workspace identity.
|
|
109
|
+
|
|
110
|
+
Record failed and unavailable paths as such, then exercise the packed next-turn or inbox
|
|
111
|
+
fallback. An unsupported platform is an explicit skip, never a passing capture. See
|
|
112
|
+
[Capabilities](CAPABILITIES.md) and each adapter's `COMPATIBILITY.md` for current evidence.
|
|
113
|
+
|
|
114
|
+
## Publish only after explicit approval
|
|
115
|
+
|
|
116
|
+
Tagging, npm publication, and creating a GitHub release are external mutations. Stop after
|
|
117
|
+
commit B until a maintainer explicitly approves them. The manual `Release` workflow builds
|
|
118
|
+
and uploads a candidate; it does not publish.
|
|
119
|
+
|
|
120
|
+
Authentication requirements depend on the credential and npm policy in effect at release
|
|
121
|
+
time. Consult npm's current documentation and inspect the configured route instead of
|
|
122
|
+
copying a historical command. For example, the v0.3.0 publication succeeded without an OTP
|
|
123
|
+
while `npm profile get` returned `403`; that is a historical observation, not a universal
|
|
124
|
+
claim about current npm authentication or credential type.
|
|
125
|
+
|
|
126
|
+
After approval, publish the verified tarball by filename. Bare `npm publish` repacks the
|
|
127
|
+
tree and would send different, unverified bytes.
|
|
128
|
+
|
|
129
|
+
```bash
|
|
130
|
+
npm publish "$tarball"
|
|
131

135
|

Add `--otp` only when the current authenticated npm route requires it. Compare the registry
|
|
136
|
+
SHA-1 with the local `shasum`, allowing for registry propagation delay, before creating the
|
|
137
|
+
tag or release record.

`--delivery actionable|all` is recipient policy, not a capability switch. Only Claude Code

2.1.258 and newer on macOS arm64 can take the live path; everything else is next-turn or

inbox by design. When Claude does fall back, it is almost always one of these:
|
|
47
|
+
|
|
48
|
+
- **An old terminal.** The launcher is put on `PATH` by a line in `.zshrc`, which only new
|
|
49
|
+
interactive shells read. `which claude` must point into `…/acc/bin`.
|
|
50
|
+
- **A failure from the last quarter hour.** Claude caches a failed channel connection in
|
|
51
|
+
`~/.claude/mcp-needs-auth-cache.json` and skips reconnecting for about fifteen minutes.
|
|
52
|
+
Remove the `acc` entry there and start the session again.
|
|
53

- **A note.** Under `actionable`, only messages that need acting on are pushed; a `note`
|
|
54

reports `delivery_disabled` on purpose.

ACC fits a familiar workflow: you open several AI sessions, give each one a task, and keep

their contexts, permissions, checkouts, and models independent. The missing piece is peer
