This document describes who stewards the canonical Agent Cards release line and what must move together for a release-state change to be credible.
- Current steward of record:
commandlayer.eth - Repository scope: canonical Agent Cards definitions, discovery descriptors, manifest metadata, checksums, and publish bundle contents in this repository
- Current canonical Agent Cards line:
v1.1.0 - Preserved legacy line:
v1.0.0 - Default repository validation path:
npm run validate - Full release bundle validation path:
npm run validate:release - Canonical branch for active development and CI:
main
Operationally, v1.1.0 is the normative line. v1.0.0 remains preserved for compatibility and reviewability but is not the default release authority path. For repository workflow, main is the canonical branch; any legacy default-branch setting is hosting history, not an alternate authority path.
A canonical release-state change is acceptable only when the following move in a coherent set and validation passes:
- Agent Cards current canonical line:
v1.1.0 - Commons current line:
v1.1.0 - Commercial current line:
v1.1.0 - Agent Cards v1.1.0 is flat and direct by policy
- Agent Cards v1.0.0 is archival compatibility only and is not a co-equal release line
Legacy artifacts may be preserved for compatibility without being retrofitted into the current model. Preservation still requires basic integrity:
A canonical release change is acceptable only when the root v1.1.0 artifacts are updated, the derivative dist-pin/agent-cards/v1.1.0/ bundle is refreshed from them, and validation passes.
