0.2.1

Release notes for 0.2.1:

Focus split — 18 core rules in dedicated repo, opinionated rules moved to reporails/recommended.

What changed

This release separates core validation rules from opinionated/governance rules. Core rules (18) stay here. The 26 opinionated rules now live in reporails/recommended and can be pulled in with ails check --with-recommended.

Highlights

• Package schema v0.0.1 — formal contract for rule packages
• Rule renumbering — 18 core rules renumbered to fill gaps (S1-S4, C1-C5, E1-E2, M1-M4, CLAUDE_M1, CLAUDE_S1-S2)
• Level redistribution — M3/M4 moved from L6 to L5; L6 is now detection-only (backbone.yml presence)
• Schema updates — rule schema v0.0.7 (package layer), agent schema v0.0.2 (fixed stale examples)
• Docs rewritten — README and CONTRIBUTING now frame reporails as validation (not linting), quickstart aligned with CLI

Removed

• 26 opinionated rules → reporails/recommended
• sources.schema.yml, evidence-chain.md, opengrep-patterns.md
