The surface-audit release: asked "does every user-facing surface show what the
mechanism actually does?", the answer was no in four places. All four fixed,
each behind a gate so it cannot silently regress.

Added

  • kit adopts its own ADR gate. Three accepted ADRs with enforce blocks now
    gate kit review and the pre-commit hook on kit's own repo: ADR-0001
    (zero-LLM core — no LLM SDK imports in src/), ADR-0002 (dependency floor —
    utility libraries forbidden, a new runtime dep is an ADR-level decision),
    ADR-0003 (the check path never imports src/coverage/* framework mappings,
    keeping them extractable to a plugin). The engine shipped in 5.7–5.10; this
    is the adoption — the same arc as scope-needs, closing the last
    "mechanism without adoption" gap found this session. All three rules
    canary-verified.
  • Docs ↔ MCP drift gate (docs-mcp-sync.test.ts). The MCP docs documented
    a tool set that never shipped (kit_configure, kit_adapter_*) and missed
    every real tool added since, including kit_triage and kit_memory. Both
    files are rewritten against the real 15-tool surface, and the gate enforces
    sync in both directions: every KIT_MCP_TOOLS entry must appear in the
    reference and the README, and no doc may mention a kit_* tool that does
    not exist — fiction is a build failure. The reference must also mark exactly
    the five 6.0-deprecated tools as deprecated.

Changed

  • kit help is audience-filtered. The five harness commands (gate-*,
    statusline) are hook stdin protocols the agent harness invokes — never a
    browsing human — so the default listing hides them behind a counted note
    ("+ 5 harness hook commands — see them with kit help --all"), never a
    silent drop. kit help --all shows everything; kit help <cmd> resolves a
    harness command directly regardless. Data-layer help parity is untouched.
  • README's MCP section now lists the real tool table with deprecation markers,
    names kit_triage instead of the deprecated kit_add, and states the
    CLI-first rule. docs/COMMANDS.md points agents at the OpenCLI contract
    and documents x-kit-audience.
