EngineeringSpec v0.1.0-rc.8

EngineeringSpec v0.1.0-rc.8

RC8 makes EngineeringSpec easier for coding agents and engineering teams to adopt, operate and understand.

Highlights

• Offline CLI, Action and guidance version-health diagnostics
• Safe managed adoption upgrades
• Validated lifecycle transition previews
• Actionable mixed-change diagnostics
• Deterministic specification catalogue and search
• Static searchable EngineeringSpec Explorer
• Read-only Backstage architecture mapping with provenance
• Improved Codex, Claude Code, Cursor and agent-neutral guidance
• Expanded onboarding, lifecycle, upgrade and troubleshooting documentation

Trust boundaries

• Architecture metadata cannot grant implementation authority
• Base-pinned authorization remains unchanged
• Specification-declared runners remain inert
• Routing, governance and format 0.1 compatibility are preserved
