+# Changelog
+
+All notable changes to this package are recorded here. The format follows
+[Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/), and the project follows
+[Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
+
+## [0.1.1] — 2026-10-11
+
+### A foreign hook on an event this repo does not gate is chained
+
+`0.1.0` chained the wrong set of hooks and is worth replacing rather than
+recommending. It chained on the event *vocabulary* — anything that was not
+`pre-commit` or `pre-push` — when the question worth asking is whether **this
+repository** declares a gate for that event.
+
+The difference is `simt-app`, whose `pre-push` is `git-lfs`. `pre-push` is an
+event this tool gates in general, so `0.1.0` displaced that hook; and because
+`simt-app` declares no `pre-push` gate there was no shim for the event either, so
+git would have found no `pre-push` hook at all. LFS objects would have stopped
+being uploaded, with nothing to notice it — the exact silent failure chaining
+exists to prevent, reached by fixing the wrong half of it.
+
+`0.1.1` asks the manifest. An event the repo declares a gate for is left to
+`gates.commands`, where the hook runs as a gate and its verdict appears in the
+report; every other foreign hook is chained. That also picks up
+`simt-landing`'s Lighthouse pre-push, which declares no gates at all.
+*(ADR-018, as amended)*
+
+Upgrade with `npm i -D simt-dev@0.1.1`, then `simt hooks install --yes`. Any
+repository already routed with `0.1.0` should re-run it: the shims it writes
+will differ where a gated event was previously displaced.
+
+## [0.1.0] — 2026-10-11
+
+The first release with real contents in it. `1.0.0` was an empty reservation of the name
+and `0.0.0-stage` was its rehearsal; neither shipped a byte anyone could run, so this entry
+is the whole history. The decisions behind it are readable in the package under
+`docs/decisions/`, and from any checkout with `simt rules why <id>`.
+
+### The command is `simt`
+
+The package is `simt-dev` and the command is `simt`. They are not the same thing and were
+never required to be: the command appears only in text the tool itself writes, and that
+text migrates on the next write. The package name, the `.simt-hooks/` directory and the
+`simt-dev-check.yml` gate already exist in every repository that adopted this tool, and
+they did not move. The manifest and the region markers did — see below.
+
+### The manifest is `simt.json`
+
+The manifest was called `simt-dev.json`; it is now `simt.json`. The move is a
+read-both/write-new, so nothing in an adopting repository has to be done:
+
+- Every read takes `simt.json` if it exists, else `simt-dev.json`, so a repository that
+  has not written since the upgrade is still seen as adopted.
+- Every write goes to `simt.json`, and a lone `simt-dev.json` is moved, not shadowed.
+- The old name keeps working until the first `init` or manifest write in each repository,
+  and that write closes it. *(ADR-056)*
+
+### The region markers are `simt:`
+
+The generated region was stamped `<!-- simt-dev:begin -->` / `<!-- simt-dev:end -->` — and
+so was the provenance header inside it; every one of those lines is now `simt:`. The move
+is the same read-both/write-new as the manifest:
+
+- Every read accepts either spelling, so a repository that has not written since the
+  upgrade is still seen as adopted.
+- Every write emits `simt:` only, so the first `sync` in each repository migrates its
+  regions in place, and that write closes the window.
+- A file holding two regions — one of each spelling — is a state only a hand edit can
+  make, and it is reported malformed rather than merged. *(ADR-056)*
+
+### A hook you already had keeps running
+
+`hooks install` points `core.hooksPath` at `.simt-hooks/`, and git reads **every** hook from
+that one directory — not just the two events this tool gates. So adopting a repository that
+had its own `post-commit`, `post-checkout` or `post-merge` would have quietly stopped them:
+nothing fails, nothing is logged, and the hook is still on disk looking intact.
+
+Those hooks are now **chained**. Install writes a shim for them that runs the repository's
+own hook and forwards git's arguments, so nothing is lost and the reason is in the file. If
+the hook is gone, the shim refuses and names the path instead of passing quietly. A hook on
+an event this tool *does* gate (`pre-commit`, `pre-push`) is deliberately not chained —
+declare it under `gates.commands` so the dispatcher runs it and its verdict appears in the
+gate report. *(ADR-018, as amended)*
+
+### What a first release has to say out loud
+
+These are the behaviours a reader is most likely to trip over. Each one is deliberate,
+and each has a numbered decision record behind it — but a behaviour nobody can discover
+without reading the source is not a documented one.
+
+- **`sync` and `init` write nothing without `--yes`.** Both print a plan and exit. `sync`
+  exits **1** when the plan is non-empty, so bare `sync` doubles as a check. Neither ever
+  commits or pushes. *(ADR-035, ADR-036)*
+- **`upgrade` moves a pin and nothing else.** It never adopts a repository, never repairs
+  one, and never rewrites a manifest. Every consumer moves to the same version as one set.
+- **A pre-commit hook with no reachable binary fails closed.** The refusal is the correct
+  behaviour, not a bug; the remedy it prints is the command that obtains one.
+  *(ADR-010, ADR-018)*
+- **A gate whose tool is not installed is dropped, with a remedy naming the package.**
+  It is never declared and silently unrunnable. *(ADR-017)*
+- **Two rules are never loaded twice.** Each rule projects to exactly one place, chosen by
+  what the harness actually reads. *(ADR-021, ADR-046)*
+- **macOS and Linux only.** Windows `npm i` fails with npm's `EBADPLATFORM`, which npm
+  will not let a package explain; use WSL2. See the platform section of the README.
+  *(ADR-012)*
+
+### Packaging
+
+- Licence set to Apache-2.0; the `LICENSE` file is the canonical, unmodified text.
+- `files` no longer lists `skills`, `agents`, `tooling` or `hooks`, none of which exist,
+  and no longer ships `docs/plans`. The tarball is the tool and the decisions behind it,
+  and nothing else.
+- The package `description` no longer names an internal ecosystem. It is the first line
+  anybody outside the project reads.
+- Unscoped, so the install command is `npm i -D simt-dev` rather than a name under an
+  organisation. The `@simt` and `@quazarmedia` scopes were both free; an unscoped name is
+  the one a reader can guess.
+
+### Notes for anyone upgrading a hook
+
+A shim installed by an earlier version looks for `SIMT_DEV_BIN`, then for
+`node_modules/simt-dev/bin/simt-dev.mjs`, then for a program named `simt` on `PATH`. The
+last of those is new, so a machine that installed the package before this release and
+never ran `simt hooks install` again will find nothing until the dependency is refreshed
+and `simt hooks install --yes` is re-run. That is a real upgrade step and it is called out
+here rather than discovered.

-# Temporary Holding Version
+# simt-dev
 
-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.
+Shared agent rules, skills and git hooks for a repository.
+
+One command adopts a repository: it reads what the repo actually runs, projects the
+matching rules into the files your agent already reads, and installs a pre-commit hook
+that refuses a commit which breaks a gate that repo can genuinely run.
+
+- **Nothing is declared that cannot run.** Every gate is probed against the working tree
+  before it is written. A gate whose tool is absent is dropped, with a remedy naming the
+  package to install — never silently present, never silently absent.
+- **Nothing an agent reads is written twice.** Each rule goes to exactly one place, chosen
+  by what the harness actually reads.
+- **The rules are a projection, not a copy.** They carry markers, so `check` can tell
+  drift from a deliberate edit, and `sync` can regenerate.
+- **The tool explains itself.** `rules why` answers "why did I get told this?" from a
+  numbered record of the decisions behind the rules, with the rejected alternatives
+  attached.
+
+## Install
+
+Requires **Node >= 22.20.0**.
+
+```sh
+# pinned, per repository - what CI and a teammate both get
+npm i -D simt-dev@0.1.1
+
+# or globally, if you would rather not add a dependency
+npm i -g simt-dev@0.1.1
+
+# or with no install at all, for a one-off
+npx -y simt-dev@0.1.1 check
+```
+
+Pin the version. The tool writes a content digest into the files it generates, and an
+unpinned upgrade changes them under you.
+
+## Use
+
+```sh
+simt init            # adopt or scaffold this repository (dry-run; --yes to write)
+simt doctor          # what this repo is, and whether its config is healthy
+simt check           # the gate: projection drift, manifest validity, policy
+simt sync --yes      # regenerate the projection
+simt upgrade --yes   # move every consumer of this tool to this version
+simt rules why ADR-042   # why a rule says what it says, and what was rejected
+simt compare         # what changed across every repository that adopted it
+```
+
+`init` and `sync` print a plan and write nothing without `--yes`. Neither commits or pushes.
+
+## What it writes
+
+| Path | What |
+| --- | --- |
+| `AGENTS.md` | the projection, between `<!-- simt:begin -->` and `<!-- simt:end -->` (renamed from `simt-dev:`; the old markers are still read, and a region migrates on its next write) |
+| `simt.json` | your manifest: which gates to declare, which substitutions to fill (renamed from `simt-dev.json`; the old name is still read, and moves on the next write) |
+| `.cursor/rules/*.mdc`, `.claude/rules/*.md`, `.agents/rules/*.md`, `.github/instructions/*.instructions.md` | one file per rule, written only for the harnesses that read their own directory |
+| `.editorconfig`, `.gitattributes` | baseline regions |
+| `.simt-hooks/` and `core.hooksPath` | the shared dispatcher, fail-closed |
+
+Anything outside the markers is yours. simt-dev never edits it and never reverts it.
+
+## Platform
+
+**macOS and Linux.** The hooks are POSIX `sh`; there is no Windows build and no plan for
+one. `npm i` on Windows fails with npm's `EBADPLATFORM`, which npm will not let a package
+explain — so the answer is here: **use WSL2**, and the gate works normally inside it.
+
+A Windows checkout without WSL2 can still read every rule this tool generates, because the
+projection is plain text in `AGENTS.md` and the per-harness rule files. Only the hooks and
+the CI gate need the POSIX host.
+
+## How the rules are chosen
+
+Detection reads what the repository runs — its dependency manifests, its build files, its
+CI workflows — and resolves that against a registry of capabilities. Resolution is a
+scored ranking over path, keyword, name, capability and stack: no model, no network, no
+guessing, so a pull request can meaningfully diff the answer.
+
+**Not every ecosystem has a profile yet.** A Go, Rust, .NET, Ruby, Swift, Dart or Elixir
+repository is detected and gets facts, but it is adopted with the core rules and no gates
+until its gate templates are written. A repository with no gates is a repository with an
+agent and no pre-commit hook — better than one with a hook that runs nothing, but not full
+support, and this README will not pretend otherwise.
+
+Every behaviour that is a choice rather than a detail has a numbered record, and the
+records are readable with `simt rules why <id>`. If the tool ever does something you
+did not expect, that command is the shortest path from the symptom to the reason.

+# ADR-001 — Push requires explicit approval
+
+Status: **accepted** · 2026-10-05 · affects all repos
+
+## Context
+
+The repos state a commit/push policy. They disagree on whether an agent may push.
+
+- A repo outside this estate: "always create a focused Git commit… skip the commit only
+  when the user explicitly asks not to commit." Silent on push.
+- `simt-garmin/AGENTS.md` DoD #8: "**Committed and pushed** with a conventional message."
+- `simt-social` and `simt-social-api`: "create a non-interactive Conventional Commit. Report
+  the commit SHA; **do not push**."
+- `simt-api`, `simt-social-media`: silent.
+
+The Social pair justify it: a push to the production branch triggers Cloudflare Workers Builds,
+so "an approved push is therefore a production deployment action, not only source publication."
+`simt-garmin` has no such coupling, and its rule asks for an autonomous push.
+
+## Ruling
+
+Commit locally, report the SHA, **push only on explicit user approval**.
+
+When a repo's push triggers a deployment, a migration, or any remote mutation, say so before
+asking for approval — do not treat approval for the push as approval for the deploy.
+
+`simt-garmin` DoD #8 changes to "committed with a conventional message; pushed on approval."
+This is the single outlier, and the 4:1 majority is also the safe direction.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- An agent that finishes a task ends at a reported SHA. Pushes become a separate, explicit step.
+- `simt-dev init` and `upgrade` propose changes and never push, including for simt-dev itself.
+- Repos whose CI deploys on push must state that consequence in their own AGENTS.md, which is
+  where the Social pair's rule already lives.
+

+# ADR-002 — Blast radius bounds refactoring; a third copy is a defect
+
+Status: **accepted** · 2026-10-05 · affects all repos
+
+## Context
+
+Two repos state opposite philosophies, and both are reasonable in isolation.
+
+- `simt-social` / `simt-social-api`: "When a second real use or a near-duplicate already
+  exists, refactor the existing code to extract the shared part… A third copy of the same
+  logic is a defect, and so is an abstraction invented for a single caller."
+- A repo outside this estate: "Match existing style, naming, and test layout. **Do not
+  refactor neighboring code unless the requested change requires it.** Do not add speculative
+  flexibility, configuration, or abstractions."
+
+Neither can be an org rule as written. The Social rule mandates proactive refactoring;
+the other forbids it.
+
+## Ruling
+
+Both survive, split by scope:
+
+- **Outside the current change's blast radius** — do not refactor. Unrelated code is not
+  collateral.
+- **Inside the blast radius** — a second real use extracts, and the extraction is *finished*:
+  no orphaned imports, exports, styles, messages, files, feature flags or compatibility
+  aliases remain anywhere in the affected dependency graph.
+- **A third copy of the same logic is a defect.** So is an abstraction invented for a single
+  caller.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- "Do not refactor neighbours" survives verbatim as a reviewer's objection to drive-by changes.
+- "A third copy is a defect" survives verbatim as a reviewer's objection to copy-paste.
+- Refactor completion becomes a checkable state, not an intention: the reviewer greps for
+  orphans rather than trusting the claim.
+- The "no speculative flexibility" half is restated as the single-caller half of this
+  ruling rather than as a blanket ban.
+
+## Rejected
+
+- **Social's rule verbatim.** Sanctions unrelated refactors, which is how a 10-line fix turns
+  into a 400-line diff nobody can review.
+- **The opposite rule verbatim.** Sanctions the third copy, which is how a codebase grows four
+  subtly different implementations of the same validation.

+# ADR-003 — Focused tests are the default; a full suite needs a named trigger
+
+Status: **accepted** · 2026-10-05 · affects all repos
+
+## Context
+
+- `simt-social` / `simt-social-api`: "Focused tests are the default gate, and full suites are
+  the exception… **absent a named trigger, running a full suite is a defect, not diligence.**"
+- A repo outside this estate: `fail_under = 100` plus a full-suite script as the pre-push
+  default, and a contributor loop that says "run the full gate locally (lint + tests +
+  coverage)."
+- `simt-garmin`: reframes the axis entirely as a layer-conditional 5a–5m matrix.
+- `simt-social-media`: no policy — it just lists `npm run test:unit && npm run test:e2e`.
+
+The Social pair make a full suite a sin. media presents it as unremarkable. The hard-gate
+repo makes it mandatory. These cannot all be org rules as stated.
+
+## Ruling
+
+Focused tests are the default gate. Running a full suite is legitimate **only** against a
+named trigger:
+
+1. Phase exit.
+2. Release gate.
+3. Behaviour that crosses a system boundary.
+4. A repo-declared numeric gate (see ADR-006 for where that number lives).
+5. Explicit user or caller instruction.
+6. Pre-push on a protected branch, in a repo that declares this trigger in `simt-dev.json`.
+
+Re-running a full suite as a progress meter is a defect. Repos outside this estate already
+say exactly this ("do not run the full gate repeatedly as a progress meter"); the principle is
+adopted as canonical.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- Each repo's `simt-dev.json` declares which of the six triggers are active for it. A repo
+  with a declared numeric gate activates 4 and 6; the Social repos activate 1, 2 and 3.
+- A reviewer can ask "which trigger?" and get a number, not an opinion.
+- media gains an explicit policy instead of an implicit one that contradicts its siblings.
+
+## Rejected
+
+- **"A full suite is a defect."** Wrong for a release gate and wrong for a repo whose coverage
+  floor is a hard number; it makes the rule get ignored rather than followed.
+- **Full suite by default.** Re-pays the whole cost on every iteration; the Social pair are
+  right that an inflated brief is a defect in the brief, not thoroughness.

+# ADR-004 — The hook owns format and lint for staged files
+
+Status: **accepted** · 2026-10-05 · affects all repos
+
+## Context
+
+- `simt-social-api`: "lint and format are enforced by the pre-commit hook — **do not run them
+  manually.**"
+- `simt-social`: "the local pre-push hook republishes opportunistically when a token happens to
+  be present." Never says the hook is the gate; instructs agents to run static checks directly.
+- A repo outside this estate: tells agents to run its linter and `git diff --check` by hand,
+  and its contributor guide repeats it.
+- `simt-api`, and 11 repos with no hooks at all: silent.
+
+The audit also found the estate's hook reality: 4 incompatible conventions, and
+`simt-app/hooks/pre-push` is **0 bytes** while the real git-lfs pre-push sits unused in
+`scripts/hooks/`.
+
+## Ruling
+
+The pre-commit hook owns format and lint **for staged files**. Do not re-run what the hook
+just ran on the same files.
+
+Manual runs are correct when:
+
+1. The hook is not installed in this checkout, or
+2. A check failed and you are diagnosing it, or
+3. The check is not hook-covered (typecheck, migration verification, contract generation).
+
+A repo with no hook installed still runs its checks manually. Silence is not permission to
+skip.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- The shared hook dispatcher from plan 0001 lands in every repo that has one, which also
+  delivers the dead `simt-app/hooks/pre-push` fix.
+- `simt-dev doctor` reports hook installation state, so "the hook will cover it" is a
+  verifiable claim rather than an assumption.
+- The 11 hook-less repos get a pre-commit on adoption, which ends the silent case entirely.
+
+## Rejected
+
+- **"Never run lint manually."** False whenever the hook is absent, which is most of the
+  estate today.
+- **"Always run lint manually."** Re-runs what a hook already verified, on every iteration.
