v0.2.0

First public-preview release of open-bridge, the open-source layer of the
two-pole Bridge setup (open-bridge ↔ your private Bridge, with an optional
org overlay).

• Cluster-wrapper layout (identity/, infra/, workflow/) with
  default-to-folder per config type.
• Agent-agnostic skill discovery (.claude/skills, .agents/skills,
  .github/skills) — Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Copilot CLI, Cursor.
• Work system (board, log, STATUS), protocols, named sub-agents, themes,
  project registry, onboarding wizard.
• OSS governance stack: MIT License (code and content), DCO, trademark
  policy, security policy, code of conduct.
• Removed the legacy crew-role taxonomy (eight fixed roles as
  crew_roles in protocols, agents.default_roles in bridge-config,
  role vocabularies in themes). Protocols now declare agents: — a
  list of concrete sub-agent names with a general-purpose fallback;
  themes map user-facing labels only.
• Removed the unused situational-protocol/alert dispatch layer
  (standing orders remain): the ten example protocols in protocols/,
  protocols/_templates/, the bridge-alert and bridge-mission
  skills, docs/protocol-catalog.md, docs/orchestrator.md,
  docs/observe-protocol.md, the work/active-protocol.yaml
  mechanic, and the alerts: vocabulary block in themes. Standing
  orders, the work system, briefing/debrief/archive, and the
  calendar/mandants/channels/remotes surfaces are the core narrative.

Added

• bridge-contribute skill — dedicated /contribute entry point for the
  community: scans your branch, enforces the mandatory two-layer
  content-safety gate, and opens a fork-based PR back to
  bks-lab/open-bridge (split out of bridge-promote).
• work/templates/week-summary.md — the weekly-summary template /archive
  builds from now ships.
• work/_learning/_schema.proposal.yaml — proposal frontmatter schema
  (mirrors the producer schema in task-close-postmortem).
• Example instances for every config type: examples/agency/ gained
  identity/accounts/cloud-provider.yaml and infra/backups/topology.yaml;
  rules/file-creation.md peer-example column now points only at files
  that ship.
• Top-level imports/ drop-zone ships (.gitkeep), matching .gitignore
  and docs/structure.md.

Changed

• README: directory structure now matches the shipped tree (scripts/,
  bin/, root policy files, real work/ contents), skill tree updated.
• bridge-promote is now strictly commit-level; file-level contribution
  flow moved to bridge-contribute.
• Documentation truth pass: docs no longer reference files that are not
  shipped. Visualization HTML variants are documented as rendered on
  demand (not committed); build-constellation.py now explains the
  missing-render case instead of crashing; the calendar fire-loop and
  Bridge-Deck integrations are consistently framed as optional companion
  features (not yet public); bridge-audit's agent-identity check matches
  the templates-only shipping design; briefing's backup-health step works
  from topology.yaml/_state.yaml directly; rename-registry and
  leak-check vocabulary entries repaired and pruned to shipped paths.
• Genericization pass: internal roadmap dates, personal device/channel
  names, and a personal job-application pipeline removed from shipped docs
  and example lists; placeholder examples (lab-device, news-digest,
  router, network-reconcile) used instead.

Removed

• Documentation reduction pass (fewer docs over more docs): deleted the
  pointer-only docs/promote-rules.md (rules live in rules/operations.md
  • rules/promote-safety.md), docs/work-system.md (CLAUDE.md § Work
    System is the source of truth), DESIGN-md-guide.md (condensed into
    DESIGN.md § Maintaining this file), and two unreferenced HTML templates.
    docs/bridge-deck.md reduced to a coming-soon stub; docs/remotes.md and
    docs/channels.md trimmed to concept + pointers (schemas/workflows live
    in templates and skills); experimental v3 UI narrative removed from the
    bridge-explorer reference.
• cloudflare-ops skill (provider tooling without Bridge relevance).
• playwright-fanout skill (generic test tool without Bridge relevance).
• All bridge-deck references in the README (the renderer repo is not yet
  public — internal docs keep a "coming soon" note).

Early and evolving — no stability guarantees yet. Pin a release tag for
reproducibility.
