-## [0.11.0] — local release candidate, pending release (2026-08-23)
+## [0.11.2] — local release candidate, pending release (2026-08-25)
+
+### Added
+
+- Added an explicit per-connection supervised compiler-worker mode that can recycle an idle compiler child while the local stdio parent remains connected; `in_process` remains the default and rollback, and TTL `0` disables recycling.
+- Added scoped Linux evidence on exact Node.js 22.13.0 and Node.js 24 for PSS reclamation, stable compiler fingerprints, SQLite reuse, bounded redaction, and parent-death cleanup without orphans.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Compiler-worker startup now waits for `ready` before replaying initialization, preventing cross-channel settlement ordering from rejecting the first forwarded request as stale.
+- CLI project-discovery fixtures now create the external project directory before concurrent configuration writes, eliminating a nondeterministic `ENOENT` setup race.
+- Public-registry verification now copies the isolated runner's complete local runtime dependency closure, including the shared managed-skill validator, before launching it outside the source tree.
+- A deterministic copied-runner regression executes the isolated entry point and rejects any local import omitted by its production bootstrap.
+
+### Release status
+
+- This local release candidate succeeds immutable npm versions `0.11.0` and `0.11.1`, neither of which was promotable: `0.11.0` verification exposed stale managed-skill predicates, and `0.11.1` verification exposed the copied runner's missing validator module. Version `0.11.2` remains pending its exact-tree matrix, CI, and separately authorized delivery sequence; it has not been published or assigned to any dist-tag.
+
+## [0.11.1] — published to `next`, verification failed, not promoted (2026-08-23)
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Public- and local-registry consumer verification now share one dependency-free managed-skill validator that derives the expected release version from the bundled skill metadata, compares installed copies byte-for-byte, and rejects embedded managed guidance.
+- The exact-tree release matrix now runs `test:local-registry` under both supported Node.js lanes, preventing managed-asset verifier drift from reaching publication again.
+
+### Release status
+
+- npm published these immutable bytes under `next` with provenance and the expected Git commit. Public-registry verification then failed because the isolated registry runner omitted its newly imported managed-skill validator module; `0.11.1` was never promoted to `latest`, tagged in Git, or released on GitHub.

-The local `0.11.0` release candidate requires Node.js `>=22.13.0`; its evidence matrix targets exact Node.js 22.13.0 and the current Node.js 24 line. Published v0.10.0 retains its immutable historical Node.js 22.13.0/24 evidence. Managed setup-file publication additionally requires GNU coreutils 9.7 `mv` supporting `--update=none-fail`, `--exchange`, `--no-copy`, and `--no-target-directory`, GNU coreutils `ln -L -T`, procfs descriptor paths at `/proc/self/fd`, and `O_DIRECTORY`/`O_NOFOLLOW`. Other Linux architectures or systems without those filesystem primitives, macOS, and Windows remain unverified.

 This is a local stdio server. It runs with the invoking user's filesystem permissions, and clients may request any `project_root` that user can access. It does not provide HTTP authentication, sandboxing, tenant isolation, or a remote-service security boundary. Remote, untrusted, and multi-tenant operation is unsupported.
 
-In published v0.10.0 and the local `0.11.0` release candidate, an absent `AST_SYMBOL_INDEX_PERSISTENCE` or explicit `enabled` selects the private SQLite symbol-index cache. `disabled` is the immediate memory-only rollback. `canary` requires an explicit absolute normalized `AST_SYMBOL_INDEX_CACHE_ROOT`. Invalid policy or storage fails closed to compiler-authoritative memory reads with bounded path-free status.
+### Optional supervised compiler worker
+
+The compiler runs in process by default. Linux operators may explicitly keep the stdio parent connected while allowing an idle compiler child to exit and lazily respawn:
+
+```bash
+AST_COMPILER_WORKER_MODE=supervised ast-mcp-server
+```
+
+The parent waits for child readiness before replaying bounded initialization state. Requests and cancellation remain generation-affine; mutation history, live operation leases, and completion-critical apply work prevent unsafe recycling. Set `AST_COMPILER_WORKER_MODE=in_process` for the full rollback, or set `AST_COMPILER_WORKER_IDLE_TTL_MS=0` to retain the relay while disabling idle recycling.
+
+The scoped Linux canary passed on exact Node.js 22.13.0 and Node.js 24 with repeatable PSS reclamation, stable compiler fingerprints, unchanged SQLite reuse, bounded redacted diagnostics, and no orphan after parent death. This is one child per connection, not a shared daemon, pool, or new default. See [ADR 0014](docs/adr/0014-supervised-compiler-worker.md).

The local `0.11.0` release candidate requires Node.js `>=22.13.0`, with evidence targeted at exact Node.js 22.13.0 and the governed Node.js 24 major.

 The checked-evidence freezer requires GNU coreutils 9.7 `mv` with `--update=none-fail`, `--no-copy`, and `--no-target-directory`. Managed setup-file mutation additionally requires that same `mv` with `--exchange`, GNU coreutils `ln -L -T`, procfs descriptor paths at `/proc/self/fd`, `O_DIRECTORY`, and `O_NOFOLLOW`. It fails closed when any verified Linux primitive is unavailable. Equivalent publication, exchange, descriptor-link, and descriptor-relative mutation semantics have not been verified on other operating systems or architectures.
 
@@ -32,9 +32,25 @@ The server does not provide:
 
 Operation locks coordinate cooperating same-user processes. They do not stop editors, network filesystems, or hostile same-user writers. Report-set freezer coordination likewise assumes cooperating same-UID processes and cannot defend checked evidence against a malicious process with the same filesystem authority. The freezer guarantees no-replace atomic visibility of the checked directory; it does not claim persistence across sudden power loss because parent-directory `fsync` durability is not established.
 
+## Optional supervised compiler worker
+
+The default and rollback remain `AST_COMPILER_WORKER_MODE=in_process`. Explicit `supervised` mode keeps one lightweight stdio parent connected to one disposable compiler child per connection:
+
+```bash
+AST_COMPILER_WORKER_MODE=supervised \
+AST_COMPILER_WORKER_IDLE_TTL_MS=60000 \
+ast-mcp-server
+```
+
+The parent waits for `ready` before replaying bounded initialization state. Generation-affine forwarding and cancellation reject stale settlements and do not retry forwarded calls. Recycling requires stable parent and child quiescence; mutation history, live leases, and completion-critical work keep the child pinned. Parent death closes admission and permits only completion-critical drain before exit.
+
+Set the TTL to `0` to disable recycling without removing the relay, or select `in_process` to remove the worker boundary. No shared daemon, pool, cross-client deduplication, default promotion, or automatic mutation-plan repair is provided.
+
+The scoped Linux evidence passed on exact Node.js 22.13.0 and the governed Node.js 24 line: three parents each completed three load/idle/respawn cycles with at least 80% PSS-delta reclamation and no upward trend. Respawns retained the compiler fingerprint, recorded six SQLite hits, reused exactly 400 files, rebuilt zero, and returned equivalent reads. Diagnostics remained bounded and redacted, and parent-death inspection found zero orphan processes. These results do not establish support for macOS, Windows, or other Linux environments.

 ## Production-readiness acceptance
 
-The four retained Linux x64 production-readiness reports cover `ast-mcp-server` and `x-scraper` under Node.js 22.5.0 and Node.js 24 for package version 0.6.0, commit `2d0b21bbb80fae1acfca6a85d5891d87e68b59c1`, and tree `af931d49769fabdf06f623965a6cfe1f9afb8a81`. They are historical integration evidence only: they are not reattributed to v0.8.1, published-next v0.9.0 or v0.9.1, the local 0.9.2 candidate, published v0.10.0, or the local v0.11.0 candidate. The exact 0.9.0 and 0.9.1 release matrices remain historical evidence for their immutable published-next bytes, the exact 0.9.2 matrix remains historical local-candidate evidence, and the exact 0.10.0 matrix remains historical published-release evidence for its own bytes. A separate exact 0.11.0 release matrix is the candidate-specific gate for current repository bytes under both supported runtime lines, including managed setup; none of these matrices rebinds the older retained reports. MCP-PROD-404 remains normative for admission:

A separate exact 0.11.2 release matrix is the release-candidate gate for current repository bytes under both supported runtime lines, including supervised-worker lifecycle and reclamation evidence, deterministic CLI project-discovery fixture setup, local-registry managed-asset verification, and the public copied-runner dependency-closure regression; none of these matrices rebinds the older retained reports. MCP-PROD-404 remains normative for admission:
 
 - zero semantic mismatches across disabled, cold, warm, restart, and rollback reads;
 - byte-identical real-repository status and worktree trees;
