Immutable release. Only release title and notes can be modified.

A shape pass over the skills, README, and validators, scored in concepts a reader must hold rather than lines: 106 added, 109 removed.

Skills

  • One reason had four homes. duck-run, duck-review, and duck-race each re-derived, in their own words, why a receipt goes to the durable records home and never the scratchpad or a candidate-branch commit. They now state the contract and cite duck-proof, which owns it.
  • duck-race's pin proof had drifted. Its copy of the model-pin procedure omitted the roster line duck-review requires recorded, so a race run from that skill alone produced a receipt that could not prove cross-family. It cites the bar instead of carrying a copy.
  • Two paragraphs a reader could not stop inside. duck-run stage 6 fused remediation lanes with the circuit breaker; duck-land step 1 fused remote policy, history shape, and base pinning. Both split under labelled headings, text unchanged.
  • duck-run says what trust-touching means at first use; the term was defined only in duck-review.

README

  • Prerequisites had no heading and sat under "Works well with". Own section, before Install.
  • Install uses ln -sfn, so installing and relinking after a pull are the same command. Measured: a symlink install made before v2.1.0 never gained duck-shape until relinked by hand.
  • The skill count leaves the prose; it was a fact maintained by hand.

Validators

  • render-catalog.py --check duplicated the validator's staleness check. Removed, with its CI step.
  • A REQUIRED_REFERENCES entry naming a retired skill now fails the gate instead of being skipped silently. Mutation-tested.
  • importlib replaces the exec plus __name__ trick; the dotted-entry exemption has one home.

Minor rather than patch: the validator gains a rejection and CI loses a step.

How it was reviewed

Not gated. One model family authored and self-checked it; the owner waived the duck-review gate and the PR approval on #16 in writing, and directed the version bump to land directly on master. CI and the validator's corruption self-test are green on the merged head.
