v0.7.3 — Monitor: Sprout Gets a Voice
Monitor: Sprout Gets a Voice. The surface we designed first is now the product: open Sprout and meet your plants — a card grid in Sprout's own voice, most-thirsty first, each plant wearing its mood, with the instrument workbench one click behind it. Underneath the voice, the measurements grew up too: the seven-band ladder was re-derived from a six-day in-situ dry-down on the real windowsill fleet, ratified band by band, and shipped to both firmware and host as doctrine (ADR-0035, Accepted). And the door is open — this release ships with our first three community contributors named in CONTRIBUTORS.md.
Per-component reality (ADR-0009 §3)
- Host — the production Home + hero (two-surface architecture, ADR-0033 Accepted): the voice pool with event-free variants, the pulse histogram + segment-bound sparkline, one-tap "Glug glug" watering log, the 14d window, the full creative palette + chart focus-tap, in-app pot/location editing, shell route coverage.
- Firmware — the ratified band ladder (the one flash-affecting change: all seven levels in-soil, boundaries measured + ratified); the native suites grew (band-partition invariants, the dose-control sim — sim-only, not linked into the shipped build); the coincident water-anchor relax.
- Docs & process — ADR-0033 + ADR-0035 Accepted with measured numbers · the color-roles charter + BRAND.md canon · the audience-scoped instruction-file split (#1125) with the credit-protection CI · the contributors roster · Trust Your Sensor live on Pages · the voice-guard, per-hook job summary, and board-hygiene tooling.
Release evidence
- Register sweep (
just voice-guard --all): user-facing surfaces clean; remaining hits are internal code-comment names of shipped concepts (the kept class). - Board hygiene (
just board-hygiene): zero drift; one advisory (v0.8.0 sizing, routed to planning). - Weekly full battery (firmware included): green, fresh at cut. 58 accelerated merges, zero reverts (#1048's final tally).
