v0.14.0

Highlights

v0.14.0 ships the agentic-builder substrate: specs 037–044, the surface an autonomous builder needs to use spec-spine as the adjudicator of "done" rather than grading its own work. Every piece is opt-in or additive; an existing corpus is byte-identical across the upgrade unless it declares implementation: complete on a spec whose units do not exist (see 041).

• 037 · machine-readable verdicts. compile --check, index check, lint, couple, attest and verify-attestation take --json and write one versioned envelope (schemaVersion, verb, ok, exitCode, report | error). The flag changes what is written, never what is decided: exit codes are identical with and without it. New VERDICT_SCHEMA_VERSION (0.1.0), independent of the registry and index versions.
• 038 · registry plan. The ready set in dependency order: which specs can be worked on now, and for each blocked one, every blocker and its state (pending, in-progress, deferred, or unresolved for a dangling depends_on). deferred records a decision and is never re-offered.
• 039 · layout.state_dir. One declared, ungoverned root for the state of tools around spec-spine: bypassed by couple, excluded from coverage, never resolved, never hashed, never read or written by spec-spine. Refused if it overlaps specs_dir or derived_dir.
• 040 · amendment authoring. amends lives in the amending spec's frontmatter and only there; the amended spec is never edited to record it. Discovery is a compiled read (registry relationships).
• 041 · completion is held to its claims. implementation: complete defeats draft leniency: an unresolved owning unit on a complete spec is a hard error whatever the status. Done is not self-authored.
• 042 · per-spec attestation. attest --spec <id> / verify-attestation --spec <id>: a signed, reproducible record of one spec's source hash, lifecycle, owning-unit content hashes and gate verdicts. A record, not a gate: exit 0 means an attestation was written. Not committed, by decision. New SPEC_ATTESTATION_SCHEMA_VERSION (0.1.0).
• 043 · governance document gaps. The constitution now states its own amendment mechanism (claim the section as an authority unit; amends is not the instrument), depends_on and implementation are named lifecycle keys with mechanical consequences, and constitution V gains its operational half: adopted code is specced as found, defects recorded under ## Known defects. The init scaffold ships all three.
• 044 · in-progress is in flight. approved + in-progress is in flight, so a corpus that ratifies before building stays green while the work is openly underway.

Also: spec-spine index now prints the W-001/W-002 warnings it records, and the docs site gained cli/attest and concepts/lifecycle pages plus the --json envelope reference (#102, #103).

Version axes. Package 0.13.0 → 0.14.0. Registry and index schemas stay at 1.1.0; the two new schema constants above start at 0.1.0. MINOR, not patch: 041 adds a refusal that can newly fail a previously-passing corpus.
