v2.0.2
Lead Protocol v2.0.2 — Documentation overhaul
A documentation-only patch release. No kernel, schema, or tooling changes — the framework PROTOCOL_RULES.md version stays at 2.0.0. This release makes the protocol far easier to approach for newcomers without losing any depth for developers.
What changed
- Opening rewritten for non-technical readers. The tagline is now a plain-language analogy — a shift-change logbook for your AI coding assistants — and "The problem" opens with a concrete, relatable scenario instead of a list of engineering verbs.
- Jargon tucked away, not removed. The mem0/LangGraph comparison, the agent-stack diagram, the actor×agent concurrency detail, and the pre-1.8.0 version history are now in collapsible
<details>blocks labeled For developers — beginners are not blocked, developers still find everything. - Solution described by everyday use. Each state file is explained by what it does for you (handoff = current state, decisions = why, lessons = mistakes not to repeat), and the folder layout is shown immediately, so the product is visible before the install steps.
- Clearer versioning guidance. "Checking which version you have" now explains that
PROTOCOL_RULES.mdrecords the kernel version (a floor, not the release number) — e.g. this release ships kernel2.0.0— and that the installed release is the top entry ofCHANGELOG.md.
Fixes
- Removed an orphaned "Option 2" heading left after the duplicate
git cloneblock was merged into Quick start. - Retargeted the operational-manual link to
.agents/CORE_RULES.md. - Preserved the
CHANGELOG.md → README.md#version-historyback-reference by collapsing (not moving) the old version history.
