Code review on #101 pushed back on step 4 of the "When the exemption ends" checklist: "Optionally flip enforce_admins to true". Leaving it false in a 2-person setup keeps the admin-bypass door open even after the single-owner workaround is no longer needed — which defeats the point of having an exit checklist. Drops "Optionally" and adds a one-line rationale so a future reader understands why the flip is non-optional. Refs #93

pip-audit on develop is flagging two transitive-dep CVEs: - idna 3.13 CVE-2026-45409 (fix in 3.15+) - starlette 1.0.0 PYSEC-2026-161 (fix in 1.0.1+) Both are surfaced via fastapi/httpx. Bumps via: uv lock --upgrade-package idna --upgrade-package starlette Resolves to idna 3.16 (3.15 was the listed fix; 3.16 is a further patch with the same fix) and starlette 1.1.0 (minor bump; FastAPI is compatible with it). All 192 unit tests pass on the upgraded lock. Bumps the project self-version 0.2.10 -> 0.2.11 per docs/DEVELOPMENT.md. Unblocks the pip-audit CI gate on #99, #100, #101, #102 (and any other PRs currently sitting on develop), all of which inherit the flagged transitive CVEs from develop and cannot pass that gate until this lands.

…sed post-#103/#104) main moved ahead of develop on 2026-05-25 when PR #86 was merged directly to main rather than via develop -> release flow. The divergence is one squash commit (eff5b1c) carrying: - docs/BEADS.md (optional Beads issue-queue guidance) - .github/pull_request_template.md (Beads PR-template block) - .github/scripts/check_aspirational_tickets.py (PEP 758 reformat) - .github/scripts/check_pin_freshness.py / check_tests_present.py / check_version_bump.py (touch-ups) - .gitattributes / .gitignore (.beads/ ignore, Windows renormalise) - CONTRIBUTING.md (line-ending normalisation) - tests/test_scripts_compile.py (new CI-script compile gate) - docs/DEVELOPMENT.md / docs/HARNESS.md / docs/HARNESS_PRIMER.md cross-refs - pyproject.toml + uv.lock self-version 0.2.10 -> 0.2.11 This PR was rebased after #103 (CVE fix, develop -> 0.2.11) and #104 (eval pattern examples, develop -> 0.2.12) merged. The version on main (0.2.11) is now behind develop (0.2.12); the conflict is resolved by bumping develop -> 0.2.13. After this lands, develop is at 0.2.13 and contains everything main has. Remaining in-flight PRs (#99, #100, #101, #105) need to rebase to bump 0.2.13 -> 0.2.14 (and onward sequentially as they merge). No behaviour change beyond what #86 already added to main. # Conflicts: # pyproject.toml # uv.lock
The existing "Solo-owner merge policy" section accurately documented how merges work today, but read as standing policy. From an external contributor's perspective it could look like the maintainer routinely bypasses their own gates. Adds a leading "Transitional" blockquote framing this as a single-owner workaround, not standing policy, and replaces the closing sentence with a numbered exit checklist (drop --admin, remove the subsection, update CODEOWNERS, optionally flip enforce_admins to true). All four changes land together when a second collaborator is onboarded. Mechanics of the merge command itself are unchanged. Closes #93

What & why
The "Solo-owner merge policy" section in CONTRIBUTING.md accurately documented how merges work today, but read as standing policy. An external contributor scanning the doc could reasonably conclude the maintainer routinely bypasses their own gates.
