Plumbline v0.2.0 — the requirement status lifecycle.

This release lands ADR 004's full maturity × coverage model: status is the requirement's maturity, orthogonal to whether code fulfils it.

Added

  • Requirement statusdraftproposedapproved (committed) → rejected, honouring OFT's Status attribute as a first-class axis.
  • Dead-end detection — an approved item that declares no Needs now fails, instead of faking 100% coverage.
  • Maturity gate policy — code against a not-yet-approved item is a warning (build-ahead, or status-lag when fully covered), never a failure; code anchoring a rejected item is zombie code (a hard fail, distinct from a broken anchor).
  • Spec-debt budget — bound un-built spec (not-yet-approved feat/req) via maxProposed / maxProposedPct in plumbline.json.

Changed

  • Breaking: a register item with no Status: now defaults to proposed, not approved — a requirement is enforced only when explicitly Status: approved. Pre-1.0, so a minor bump.
  • The audit, maintain and onboard skills are fully fluent in the model (scoring over the approved set, the planned-vs-realised burndown, status transitions).
