+
+
+### ⚠ BREAKING CHANGES
+
+* **orchestration:** `.agentrc.json` documents with a `github` block must now include `github.operatorHandle`. The shipped templates already carry the `@[USERNAME]` placeholder, so consumers upgrading via `mandrel sync` get it automatically; a hand-written config without it will fail schema validation until the key is added.
+
+### Added
+
+* **orchestration:** require per-contributor operatorHandle and fail closed in lease guards ([#3563](https://github.com/dsj1984/mandrel/issues/3563)) ([50e0b3e](https://github.com/dsj1984/mandrel/commit/50e0b3ea8f2a67679114620cd9ed292e5473686d))

+
+
+### ⚠ BREAKING CHANGES
+
+* Mandrel v6.0.0 — ticket hierarchy is now Epic -> Feature -> Story (with inline acceptance/verify on the Story body). The planning.hierarchy config flag, type::task label, Task-tier scripts, and Task-aware lifecycle hooks have been deleted. Consumers re-pinning .agents/ to v6.0.0 MUST migrate any local Task-tier artifacts per docs/upgrade-guide-3-tier.md.
+* **board:** collapse Status field to Todo/In Progress/Done ([#2868](https://github.com/dsj1984/mandrel/issues/2868))
+* **release:** footers or !-marked commits never auto-propose a major version. Major bumps now require explicit operator intervention via a Release-As: X.0.0 trailer or a manual edit on the release PR branch.
+* **release:** 5.36.4 — remove sprintClose.runRetro back-compat shim

+
+## [1.0.0] — 2026-05-15
+
+**Mandrel 1.0 — rebrand + clean slate.** The framework relaunches under the
+**Mandrel** name with a fresh major-version line. The pre-rebrand version
+history (v1.x – v5.41.x under the old name, plus the transitional `6.0.0`
+cut-over tag) is preserved in the project's Git history (the pre-rebrand
+tags) and is **not
+comparable** to entries under this line — file structure, package name,
+and configuration shapes all changed at the rebrand boundary. New
+adopters target the **`mandrel`** package / **`mandrel.git`** submodule
+from this point forward.
+
+### Added (dispatch hints & parallel tooling)
+
+All optional unless used; untouched consumers behave as before.
+
+- Workflow frontmatter: `recommendedModel` and `dispatchModel` (`haiku` |
+  `sonnet` | `opus`) — dispatcher hints only, no required schema fields.
+- Helper [**parallel-tooling**](../.agents/workflows/helpers/parallel-tooling.md) documenting fan-out tooling in one assistant turn.
+- Skill **`audit-fan-out`** (opt-in `/audit-fan-out`).
+- **`epic-perf-report`**: optional `dispatchModel` on `mostFrictionStories[]`
+  items; omitted when absent. See PRD #1276 / Tech Spec #1277 /
+  Stories #1326–#1329.
+
+### Breaking changes (decomposition & manifest)
+
+Hard cut — no aliases. Update `.agentrc.json` in lockstep; legacy shapes fail
+schema validation.
+
+- **Concurrency**: single **`orchestration/concurrency`** block (`decomposer`,
+  `deliverRunner`, `waveGate`, `commitAssertion`, `progressReporter`).
+  Removes **`runners.decomposer`**, **`runners.concurrency`**, and
+  **`deliverRunner.concurrencyCap`**; use **`resolveConcurrency(orchestration)`**.
+
+- **`sizingProfile`** on dispatch-manifest Tasks that exceed **`agentSettings/planning.taskSizing.softFileCount`** file threshold (profiles: **`mechanical-sweep`**, **`atomic-rewrite`**, **`scaffolding`**).
+
+- **`agentSettings/planning.taskSizing`** — tunable **`maxAcceptance`** /
+  **`maxChanges`** / **`softFileCount`** / **`softAcceptanceCount`** with
+  structured oversized/missing-profile findings consumed by decomposition retry.
+
+- **Dispatch markdown**: one nested Wave → Story → Task flow (TOC anchors,
+  checkboxes, per‑wave decomposition notes, single footer `<details>`). Behavior
+  is locked by **`tests/lib/presentation/manifest-formatter-end-to-end.test.js`**.
+
+### Changed (Story #1922 — agentrc template rename + role split)
+
+- **Renamed `.agents/min-agentrc.json` → `.agents/starter-agentrc.json`**. The
+  bootstrap delta-seed consumers copy to `.agentrc.json` is now named for what
+  it is: a *starter*, not the absolute minimum. Content unchanged from the
+  pre-rename `min-agentrc.json`.
+- **Renamed `.agents/default-agentrc.json` → `.agents/full-agentrc.json`** and
+  expanded it to enumerate every schema key. The reference template now
+  includes the three Epic #1720 gates (`mutation`, `lighthouse`,
+  `bundleSize`) plus the two `worktreeIsolation` keys (`primeFromPath`,
+  `allowSymlinkOnWindows`) the schema accepts. Values mirror the in-code
+  framework defaults so the file documents reality, not aspiration. Story
+  #1911 will lift the placeholder mutation / lighthouse / bundle-size
+  floors to their high-bar values.
+- **Trimmed the dogfood `.agentrc.json`** to minimum + delta. Dropped every
+  key whose value matched a framework default (`planning.maxTickets`,
+  `delivery.execution.timeoutMs`, `delivery.maxTokenBudget`,
+  `delivery.deliverRunner.concurrencyCap`, all of `delivery.signals.*`,
+  `delivery.quality.gateScoping`, the entire `lint` gate, and several
+  inherited fields from `coverage` / `crap` / `maintainability`). The
+  remaining keys are genuine project overrides — primarily the workspace
+  floors, the symlink worktree strategy, and the `riskHeuristics` /
+  `docsFreshness.paths` lists whose runtime fallback is empty.
+- **Bootstrap workflow** ([agents-bootstrap-project.md §2.5](../.agents/workflows/agents-bootstrap-project.md))
+  rewritten to seed from `starter-agentrc.json` with a refreshed
+  "Why starter, not full?" callout explaining the delta-vs-copy rationale.
+
+No schema changes. The static schema mirror, AJV runtime schemas, and the
+runtime defaults in code (`LIMITS_DEFAULTS`, `*_GATE_DEFAULTS`,
+`DEFAULT_DELIVER_RUNNER`, etc.) are untouched.
+
+### Removed
+
+- Epic #1235 hands-off CI automation: bot approver, auto-fix, triage-PR,
+  baseline-refresh-guardrail workflows and implementations; **`agents-bootstrap-github`**
+  no longer bundles workflow templates. Operator flow: Phase 7 in
+  [`.agents/workflows/epic-deliver.md`](../.agents/workflows/epic-deliver.md). Ruleset **`14286998`**
+  and secrets **`BOT_APPROVER_*`** must be reconciled manually; **`agent-protocols-reviewer`** app may go away.
+- **Windows** runner removed from **`ci.yml`** / required checks due to flaky
+  c8 drift (#1267); Windows remains covered locally via pre-push.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Tasks** close at **commit-time**; Story stays **`agent::executing`** until merge
+  (**`story-task-progress.js`**, **`cascade: false`** on close path).
+- **Story resume** skips Tasks already **`agent::done`** with reachable **`commitSha`**.
+- **`epic-complete` webhook** fires after **`gh pr create`** (**`epic-deliver-finalize.js`**).
+- **Maintainability** gate default tolerance **0.001 → 0.5**, overridable via
+  **`agentSettings/quality.maintainability.tolerance`** / **`CRAP_TOLERANCE`**.
+
+---
+
+Pre-rebrand history (the old-name v1.x–v5.41.x line and the 6.0.0 cut-over
+tag) is preserved in the project's Git history (the pre-rebrand tags).
