Open Growth Loop v0.1.7

Open Growth Loop v0.1.7 adds two maintainer-facing readiness improvements:

• ogl doctor: one local readiness report across validation, freshness, privacy scanning, candidate ranking, daily planning, and release review.
• outbox/index.json: a machine-readable report index summary with available/missing reports and per-report metadata.

Verification: 57 tests pass, compileall passes, CLI smoke tests pass, and the local privacy scan is clean.

v0.1.6

Adds a one-command demo report workflow.

Highlights:

• Added ogl demo, which generates the main local report set in one reviewable run: freshness, candidates, query backlog, plan, prompt, issue draft, experiment review, weekly review, privacy scan, release brief, and report index.
• Updated README, roadmap, public backlog, version metadata, and changelog for v0.1.6.
• Added test coverage for the demo report workflow.

Verification:

• python -m unittest discover -s tests passes with 56 tests.
• python -m open_growth_loop --workspace . demo passes.
• python -m compileall -q src tests passes.
• git diff --check passes.
• Private-term scan returned no matches outside ignored output and license files.

v0.1.5

Public report gallery release.

Highlights:

• Added docs/REPORT_GALLERY.md with sanitized examples of the generated report index, daily plan, candidate ranking, freshness report, issue draft, release brief, and weekly review.
• Linked the report gallery from the README first screen so reviewers can understand the output without running the CLI.
• Updated package metadata and release docs to v0.1.5.

Verification:

• python -m unittest discover -s tests passes with 55 tests.
• python -m compileall -q src tests passes.
• git diff --check passes.
• python -m open_growth_loop --workspace . privacy-scan passes with 0 findings.
• Private-term scan returned no matches outside ignored output and license files.

v0.1.4

Report Design v1 for generated maintainer outputs.

Highlights:

• Plan, candidates, freshness, query backlog, weekly review, issue draft, and release brief Markdown now use reader-first scorecards, ranking tables, status tables, and cleaner audit sections.
• Added ogl report-index, which writes outbox/index.md as a local front page linking generated reports with status, timestamps, and recommended reading order.
• Updated README, docs, version metadata, and the front-page workflow visual for v0.1.4.

Verification:

• python -m unittest discover -s tests passes with 55 tests.
• CLI smokes passed for status, validate, freshness, candidates, plan, query-backlog, prompt, issue-drafts, weekly-review, release-brief, privacy-scan, report-index, and init in a temp workspace.
• Private-term scan returned no matches outside ignored output and license files.

Open Growth Loop v0.1.3

What changed

v0.1.3 adds a release-readiness and dogfooding workflow for Open Growth Loop.

Added

• ogl release-brief writes Markdown and JSON release-readiness reports.
• Release briefs summarize workspace validation, data freshness, privacy scan status, latest plan, runnable example coverage, changelog state, README planner coverage, and manual adoption-claim guardrails.
• docs/DOGFOODING.md explains how Open Growth Loop uses its own maintainer workflow.
• docs/RELEASE_READINESS.md explains how to interpret ready with manual review reports.
• Synthetic package-page and release-note examples show the generic planner rules on more OSS maintainer surfaces.

Verification

• python -m unittest discover -s tests passed with 53 tests.
• python -m compileall -q src tests passed.
• CLI smoke tests passed for validate, freshness, candidates, plan, query-backlog, prompt, issue-drafts, weekly-review, privacy-scan, and release-brief.
• Latest CI passed: https://github.com/R3ijar/open-growth-loop/actions/runs/26865630201

Notes

This is still an early OSS maintainer tool. The release brief intentionally includes a manual guardrail not to claim stars, downloads, users, or broad ecosystem impact unless those metrics are public and verified.

Open Growth Loop v0.1.2

Open Growth Loop v0.1.2 makes the local maintainer loop more trustworthy, auditable, and easier to explain from the public repository front page.

Highlights

• Data Freshness v1: ogl freshness reports whether real local CSV inputs are fresh enough to trust. Generated plans now also include freshness evidence and warnings.
• Decision Trace v2: plans explain the selected winner, ranked alternatives, losing reasons, thresholds, blocked state, and memory notes.
• Local issue drafts: ogl issue-drafts turns the latest plan into reviewable Markdown without creating GitHub issues automatically.
• README landing polish: the repository front page now explains what maintainers get after one run and shows an updated visual preview.

Why It Matters

Open Growth Loop is designed for conservative OSS docs, examples, onboarding, package-page, and project-site maintenance. This release makes the recommendation easier to audit before handing work to Codex, opening an issue, or shipping a docs change.

Verification

• 51 unit tests passing
• CLI smoke tests for validation, freshness, candidates, plan, prompt, issue drafts, weekly review, and privacy scan
• Public README rendering verified in browser
• CI passed on the release commit

Open Growth Loop v0.1.1

Patch release for the first public maintenance iteration of Open Growth Loop.

Included in this release:

• Added stale-work detection for planned work waiting too long, shipped work missing artifacts, shipped work ready for review, and shipped work waiting too long for review readiness.
• Added configurable stale-work windows through stale_planned_days and stale_shipped_days.
• Added unified action candidates through ogl candidates, so maintainers can inspect ranked alternatives before accepting a plan.
• Added local action memory with ogl complete, ogl outcome, pending-outcome candidates, and conservative score adjustments from recorded outcomes.
• Polished the public README and replaced the Mermaid workflow with a GitHub-rendered static workflow diagram.
• Verified CI on the release commit.

Privacy boundary: Open Growth Loop remains local-first and designed around aggregate/public-safe maintainer data. It does not require a hosted service or private customer analytics.

Status: early public OSS maintainer tool. No adoption, download, or community usage claims are made for this release.

Open Growth Loop v0.1.0

Initial public Apache-2.0 release for Open Growth Loop, a local-first CLI for OSS maintainers choosing one conservative docs/content growth action at a time.

Included in this tag:

• CSV readers for Search Console exports, aggregate event exports, content inventory, and experiment logs.
• ogl init, ogl validate, ogl status, ogl plan, ogl query-backlog, ogl prompt, and privacy-safe local reporting workflows.
• Conservative daily planner for release evidence, funnel, search, planned asset, and wait-for-data rules.
• Configurable local thresholds and schema aliases.
• Dated Markdown/JSON reports, runnable sample workspaces, tests, CI, Apache-2.0 license, and governance docs.

Privacy boundary: this release is local-first and is designed around aggregate/public-safe maintainer data rather than private analytics or customer data.

Status: early public MVP. Newer work on main, including action memory and unified candidate ranking, is intentionally unreleased and will be cut separately.
