spec(schemas): canonicalize governance conditions + catalog item_count (#2603, #2604)#2612
Conversation
#2603, #2604) check-governance-response.json: enforce the spec-described presence rules via if/then — - status=conditions → conditions required with minItems: 1 - status=denied → findings required with minItems: 1 - status=approved|conditions → expires_at required sync-catalogs-response.json: require item_count on catalog entries when action is created/updated/unchanged (failed/deleted still omit). Storyboards already assert this; the schema now backs the assertion. Audit against #2604's other instances — property_list/collection_list echo via packages[].targeting_overlay, list-creatives pricing_options, report-usage vendor_cost — are already canonical. No further tightening needed this pass. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Reviewer flag: the if/then tightening says item_count is required when action is created/updated/unchanged, but the description didn't say so. Update the description to match so readers don't have to jump down to the allOf block to find the presence rule. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
list-creatives-request.json and list-creative-formats-request.json: when include_pricing is true, require account. The prose already said "Requires account to be provided" on both fields; the if/then makes enforcement mechanical so a seller can't be asked to compute pricing with no rate-card context. Closes the "latent gap" flagged by review on #2612: the pricing_options response field is only conditionally present (when include_pricing=true and account provided). Schema can't bind request→response across documents, but it can bind the request-side precondition that makes pricing computable in the first place. Style: expand inline {} object form in check-governance-response.json if/then blocks to match the file's existing expanded style. Reorder sync-catalogs-response.json items to match check-governance's required → additionalProperties → allOf ordering for consistency.

…tations Two additions to the 3.0.0 release notes for work that landed on main over the last 30h but wasn't yet in our section: - Item 17 covers #2612: check-governance-response now enforces conditions/findings/expires_at presence via if/then, and sync-catalogs-response requires item_count on created/updated/ unchanged actions. Conformant agents unchanged; non-conformant ones now fail at response_schema validation instead of downstream field_present checks. - Brand schema extensions summary paragraph now also names the three non-normative x- annotations that shipped over the last 48h: x-entity (#2660 phases 1-4 complete), x-mutates-state (#2675), and the governance_policy registry/inline split (#2685). All x-* annotations — agents don't validate them; they're tooling hints for the storyboard context-entity lint.

…A banners (#2302) * docs: 3.0 release notes, migration guide, specialism threading, and GA banners (#2177) Closes #2177 and #2290. Comprehensive documentation update for AdCP 3.0 GA. **Release documentation:** - Add 3.0.0 CHANGELOG entry covering every change since rc.3 - Add rc.3 → 3.0 prerelease upgrade guide with breaking changes table, before/after JSON examples, and schema file references - Expand whats-new rc.3 → 3.0 highlights with Specialisms + Compliance as a headline 3.0 pillar - Exit changeset prerelease mode so next release is stable 3.0.0 - Remove stale "use 2.5 for production" banner from intro; drop misleading "(recommended for production)" from v2.5.0 historical schema-versioning note **Specialisms + storyboards threaded through training:** - Add "Specialisms you can validate" tables to all 5 specialist modules - Add "Specialisms you can claim" to publisher and platform tracks; "Validating across sellers" to buyer track - Add Domain/Specialism/Storyboard glossary + Compliance claims section to foundations A2 module - Map skills to specialisms in build-an-agent; note brand-rights has no skill yet - Add "What changed in 3.0" callout to Compliance Catalog covering rename/merge/promotion - Thread specialisms mention through intro and quickstart **GA launch banners (#2290):** - Add Mintlify banner to docs.json: "AdCP 3.0 is now GA — see what's new" - Add dismissible announcement strip to AAO homepage - Bump docs.json default version label 3.0-rc → 3.0 **Pre-commit hook fix:** - Force vitest `pool: 'threads'` in vitest.config.ts. The default forks pool hangs indefinitely under non-TTY stdin (git pre-commit hook) because server module init in imported code keeps child processes alive. Threads share the parent lifecycle and exit cleanly. Same test speed. **Other fixes:** - Remove stale "AdCP 3.0 Proposal" banner from collection_lists.mdx - Fix major_versions: [1] → [3] in get_adcp_capabilities examples - Update publisher track B3 to use governance_context + purchase_type - Trim changelog.mdx stub to match its actual role (link to GitHub) Expert-reviewed across code, protocol, DX, docs, copy, product, security, and education. All feedback applied. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(3.0): foreground trust surface story (signing, idempotency, signed governance) Weaves the post-rc.3 trust-surface work into the 3.0 narrative across CHANGELOG, release notes, whats-new, and migration guides. Previously these PRs were merged to main but not reflected in the 3.0 documentation story. CHANGELOG.md — Adds "Breaking Changes — trust surface" and "Minor Changes — trust surface" sections: Breaking: - idempotency_key required on all mutating requests (#2315) - IO approval at task layer, not MediaBuy.pending_approval (#2270, #2351) - Art 22 / Annex III as schema invariants (#2310, #2338) - inventory-lists → property-lists, collection-lists split out (#2332, #2336) - domains → protocols compliance taxonomy (#2300) Minor: - RFC 9421 request signing profile (#2323) - Signed JWS governance_context (#2316) - Universal security baseline storyboard (#2304) - Signed-requests runner harness + runner output contract (#2350, #2352) - Cross-instance state persistence required (#2363) - Security narrative + principal terminology retirement (#2381) - URL canonicalization + sf-binary pins (#2341, #2342, #2343) Plus docs/patch entries for Operating an Agent, release cadence, CHARTER.md, AI disclosure, creative lifecycle hardening, signals baseline, Scope3 → CSBS rename, and numerous training-agent/storyboard fixes. release-notes.mdx — Rewrites the 3.0.0 intro to lead with the trust surface. Adds #1 "Trust Surface" item covering idempotency, signing, signed governance, and universal security storyboard. whats-new-in-v3.mdx — New "Trust surface: idempotency, request signing, and signed governance" section at the top of New Capabilities. prerelease-upgrades.mdx — New breaking-change rows and additive bullets for trust-surface primitives. migration/index.mdx — Adds idempotency_key, request signing, signed governance_context, IO approval task-layer move, and Art 22 schema invariants. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(3.0): fold webhooks into trust surface (signed webhooks + webhook idempotency) Webhooks now a full citizen of the 3.0 trust surface — signing unified on the RFC 9421 profile (baseline-required for sellers) and every webhook payload carries a required idempotency_key. Also picks up several spec-hardening and governance-tightening PRs that landed post-merge. CHANGELOG.md — Adds to trust-surface minor changes: - Unify webhook signing on RFC 9421 profile (#2423) - Require idempotency_key on every webhook payload (#2416, #2417) - check_governance required on every spend-commit (#2403, #2419) - Experimental status mechanism + custom pricing escape hatch (#2422) Plus patch entries for: - submitted branch on create_media_buy + ai_generated_image right-use (#2425) - time semantics + activate_signal idempotency (#2407) - known-limitations/privacy-considerations/why-not FAQs + platform-agnostic lint (#2427) - scope-truthfulness pass on three audited claims (#2385, #2404) release-notes.mdx — Renames #1 item to "Trust Surface: Idempotency, Request Signing, Signed Governance, and Signed Webhooks" and promotes webhooks to a first-class bullet. Updates intro paragraph to mention webhook signing + payload idempotency. Adds 4 new rows to the breaking changes table (webhook signing, webhook idempotency_key, revocation-notification.notification_id rename, plus MediaBuy.pending_approval placement). New webhook migration bullet at the top of the rc.3 adopter list. whats-new-in-v3.mdx — Expands the trust surface section with two new paragraphs covering webhook signing under the 9421 profile and required payload idempotency across all five webhook payload schemas. prerelease-upgrades.mdx — 4 new breaking-change rows (webhook signing, webhook payload idempotency, notification_id → idempotency_key, etc.) + 8 new additive bullets covering webhook signing, webhook idempotency, check_governance on spend-commit, experimental status mechanism, submitted branch, time semantics, and the new reference pages. migration/index.mdx — Adds webhook signing and webhook idempotency rows to the v2→v3 migration checklist. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(3.0): expert-review fixes — accurate trust-surface primitives, adcp_use placement, no protocol default on TTL Addresses three rounds of expert review (product, protocol, copy) on the 3.0 release-docs PR. **Accuracy fixes (protocol expert)**: - idempotency_key TTL: "default 24h" was wrong — schema has no default, 24h is only recommended. Clients MUST NOT assume one. Fixed in CHANGELOG, release-notes, whats-new, prerelease-upgrades. - adcp_use placement: webhook-signing JWK carries adcp_use:"webhook-signing" on the JWK inside the JWKS document at jwks_uri — NOT as a field on the brand.json agents[] entry. Clarified in all four files. - kid uniqueness: kid values MUST be unique across adcp_use purposes within a JWKS. Added to whats-new and prerelease-upgrades. - check_governance qualifier: restored "when a governance agent is configured on the plan" — was previously unconditional MUST. Added PERMISSION_DENIED as the rejection code. - UUID v4: spec allows ^[A-Za-z0-9_.:-]{16,255}$; UUID v4 is an AdCP Verified requirement, not schema-enforced. Clarified across docs. - Legacy HMAC opt-in: named the actual field (push_notification_config. authentication.credentials) where 3.x buyers opt into HMAC fallback. - 4.0 removal scope: the entire `authentication` object is removed in 4.0, not just HMAC. - webhook_signature_* reworded to "typed reason codes defined in the Security guide" — they are not enum values in error-code.json. **Narrative fixes (product + copy)**: - Primitive count reconciled: release-notes headline said 4, list had 5+1, whats-new said 3. Now consistently 4, grouped by symmetry (requests: idempotency + signing; webhooks: signing + idempotency; governance JWS as capstone). Universal security storyboard moved to item #2 (specialisms/storyboards) where it belongs as verification, not a primitive. - Opener paragraph tightened. "AdCP 3.0 makes agent-to-agent ad buying cryptographically verifiable and retry-safe." leads — the "safe for real money" overreach is softened throughout. - Connective tissue added: "Trust primitives define the bar; storyboards test it; AdCP Verified certifies it." in item #2. - Item #5 (IO approval) merged into item #12 (media buy lifecycle) — they described the same change. Numbered items now 1-14 clean. - Release notes #14 consolidated brand-schema + operating-an-agent + cadence + experimental-status + known-limitations into one "Operating an Agent, Release Cadence, CHARTER" item; brand-schema extensions pointer to CHANGELOG. - Long 14/15-step checklists deduplicated — release-notes and whats-new now link to the Security guide rather than restating them. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(3.0): remove preview specialisms, fill brand baseline, thread trust surface - Remove sales-streaming-tv, sales-exchange, sales-retail-media, and measurement-verification from the 3.0 specialism enum and catalog. They were causing confusion about what's stable at GA. Tracking reintroduction with authoritative storyboards in 3.1: #2511. - Fill the brand protocol baseline storyboard (identity-only); rights lifecycle remains in the experimental brand-rights specialism. - Rewrite quickstart step 3 to teach idempotency_key + replay semantics and step 4 to replace HMAC-SHA256 webhooks with the RFC 9421 webhook profile (JWKS-anchored, typed webhook_signature_* reason codes). - Add a trust-surface callout to the intro walkthrough so Alex's team encounters signing, idempotency replay, and signed governance JWS together at the media-buy execution moment. - Clean up cross-references in compliance-catalog, specialist learning modules (governance, media-buy), platform track, migration guide, and what's-new page. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(3.0): apply external rc.3 review fixes — versioning clarity, SI experimental flags - versioning: empty 3.1/3.2 Notes column removed; table now points at GitHub milestones for current candidate scope (no fixed commitments). - versioning: retire "architecture committee led by Brian O'Kelley" phrasing; cross-cutting decisions happen in working-group forums and public GitHub issues. Brian's role remains named in FAQ and CHARTER. - whats-new: flag Sponsored Intelligence as (experimental) in the protocol-scope comparison rows and implementer checklist, matching treatment already present on the dedicated SI section, FAQ, and governance overview. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(3.0): defensibility review P0 fixes + cutover checklist (#2538) - known-limitations:47 tense fix. Art 22 / Annex III schema invariant shipped via #2310 on 2026-04-18. - release-notes trust-framing. RFC 9421 request signing is optional in 3.0 (required only for AdCP Verified). Reframed as "retry-safe and auditable, with optional end-to-end request signing." - whats-new Verified self-attestation note. Agents publish their own runner-output.json; AAO does not audit or gate issuance. - policy-registry CSBS provenance. Formal IP donation instrument is tracked in #2314 (Evergreen, legal-gated). CSBS ships under AAO custodianship until signed assignment is on file. Launch-day cutover tracked in #2538. * docs(3.0): defensibility review P1 fixes * docs(governance): vendor Bylaws + Membership Agreement into repo (closes #2440) * docs(governance): replace HTML-comment mirror headers with MDX-safe blockquotes * docs(governance): absolute GitHub URL for governance README pointers (Mintlify broken-link fix) * chore(husky): pin mintlify to 4.2.500 in pre-push (useState crash in 4.2.515+) * docs(3.0): flip to GA — FAQ maturity, AAMP comparison, industry landscape (closes #2538 docs) * docs(3.0): Verified program launches with 3.1 — set expectations now * fix(ci): restore multi-platform optional deps in lockfile + axios types Regenerating the lockfile during the main-merge resolution was done on macOS-arm64, which only recorded darwin-arm64 entries for platform- specific optional deps (@rolldown/binding-*, @img/sharp-*). Linux CI then failed with 'Cannot find module @rolldown/binding-linux-x64-gnu' (TypeScript Build) and 'Could not load the sharp module using the linux-x64 runtime' (broken-links). Regenerated the lockfile with npm install --os=linux --cpu=x64 after nuking node_modules, which populated all platform optional deps (darwin/linux/win32/android/freebsd/wasm bindings for rolldown; full sharp platform matrix including the nested favicons/node_modules/sharp copy). Reinstalling locally after on macOS works fine — npm picks up only the darwin-arm64 bindings at runtime. Also fixes a latent typecheck error in server/src/adagents-manager.ts: axios 1.15.2 narrowed AxiosHeaders to string | number | true | string[] | AxiosHeaders | undefined, breaking the .includes() call on response.headers['content-type']. Wrap in String() to coerce safely. The lockfile regeneration bumped axios from an older 1.13.x resolve to 1.15.2 which surfaced this (existing bug, would have hit anyone regenerating the lockfile on main). * fix(ci): drop tests for two SDK-owned compliance assertions server/tests/unit/compliance-assertions.test.ts still imported spec from context-no-secret-echo.ts and idempotency-conflict-no-payload-leak.ts, both of which were deleted in the 5.8 @adcp/client upgrade (the SDK now ships both as built-in default invariants and owns the tests). Removed the two describe blocks and their imports. Kept the governance.denial_blocks_mutation tests — that assertion is still repo-local. Missed locally because npm run test:unit only scans tests/, not server/tests/ — CI catches both via test:server-unit. * docs(3.0): add item 17 (schema presence tightenings) + fold in x-annotations Two additions to the 3.0.0 release notes for work that landed on main over the last 30h but wasn't yet in our section: - Item 17 covers #2612: check-governance-response now enforces conditions/findings/expires_at presence via if/then, and sync-catalogs-response requires item_count on created/updated/ unchanged actions. Conformant agents unchanged; non-conformant ones now fail at response_schema validation instead of downstream field_present checks. - Brand schema extensions summary paragraph now also names the three non-normative x- annotations that shipped over the last 48h: x-entity (#2660 phases 1-4 complete), x-mutates-state (#2675), and the governance_policy registry/inline split (#2685). All x-* annotations — agents don't validate them; they're tooling hints for the storyboard context-entity lint. * docs(3.0): fold envelope-replayed schema fix and audience-status enum into item 11 Two schema-touch commits from the training-agent sprint that are protocol-visible: - #2839 (2ee6ac7): envelope-level `replayed` flag now accepted on 15 mutating response schemas (property-list, collection-list, governance). Previously replay responses on these tools failed schema validation. - #2836 (8ed0d4c): formal `audience-status` enum with explicit lifecycle transitions, paralleling other lifecycle-bearing resource types. Both roll into item 11 (Error Codes and Schema Consistency). No breaking-changes-table additions — the `replayed` fix is permissive, the enum formalization just elevates an implicit contract.

Summary
Narrow, additive schema tightenings that move enforcement from storyboard assertions into the schema itself. Agents following the prose descriptions already emit these fields; the schemas now require them so bad responses fail at `response_schema` validation instead of slipping through.
Closes #2603, closes #2604.
Audit against #2604's other claims
After reading the schemas end-to-end, the other drift instances named in #2604 are already canonical and need no change:
Scope notes on #2603
The issue body proposed a `conditions[]` item shape of `{ id, type, description, required_before }`. The schema already defines `conditions[]` items as `{ field, required_value?, reason }` (required: `field`, `reason`), and `docs/governance/campaign/tasks/check_governance.mdx` uses the same shape. Keeping the canonical shape — training agents, storyboards, and prose all match it.
`governance_context` propagation between `check_governance` and `create_media_buy` is handled at the envelope layer (the buyer attaches the signed JWS to the create request); the `create_media_buy` success shape does not need to re-echo `conditions[]` because the buyer has already agreed to them by calling `check_governance` a second time with the adjusted parameters before proceeding (per the conditions → re-check flow described in the `status` enum description).
