Project Delivery v1.4.0-rc.1

Project Delivery v1.4.0-rc.1 is the first release candidate for the standalone Codex plugin that replaces fragmented generic project-management and software-delivery workflows with one repository-grounded lifecycle.

Highlights

• 13 coherent skills covering context, requirements, design, planning, coordination, implementation, quality, documentation, review, security/operations, release, and learning.
• One risk-scaled orchestrator for small fixes, medium features, large or multi-PR initiatives, review-only, design-only, release-only, incident, and workflow-decommission requests.
• 24 semantic route profiles with explicit authority, ownership, gates, evidence, stop conditions, and no runtime dependency on Boss, Epic/Epic Harness, Superpowers, or another workflow plugin.
• Complete plugin and per-skill icon family.
• Exact 64-file installable package boundary, MIT license, local personal-marketplace support, and Git git-subdir marketplace metadata.

Validation

• 155/155 regression tests passed.
• Plugin Creator and 13/13 skill validations passed.
• Hosted validation, HOL scanner, plugin-scanner, and GitGuardian checks passed on the tagged main revision.
• Prepared source and installed personal-cache payload matched exactly.
• Fresh-process smoke task reported the exact installed cachebuster version and selected the expected lightweight planning route.

RC limitations

• Use this prerelease in normal small and medium work before promoting stable 1.4.0.
• Icon files and references validate, but protected Codex UI pixels were not directly automated; fully relaunch Codex Desktop if an existing task retains stale cards.
• Keep a rollback source for superseded generic workflow plugins until adoption is confirmed.

See the repository README, migration guide, and concise validation report for installation and adoption details.
