 ## Release Guidance
 
+The [v0.17.0 release notes](docs/releases/v0.17.0.md) cover the vanity module
+path, ConfigKit v1, identified resource lists, removal of prompt-version
+metadata, and the Go 1.27 minimum. This is a breaking pre-v1 migration.
+
+Consumers using the former Go module path should follow the
+[module-path migration guidance](docs/consumers/configuration-migration.md#update-go-imports).
+
 The [v0.16.0 release notes](docs/releases/v0.16.0.md) cover explicit smoke
 diagnostics, configuration collections, scoped engine views, and discovery.
-Upgrading consumers should review the breaking changes to bundled configuration
-and prompt version selection and follow the linked migration guide.
+Upgrading consumers should also review the current identified-resource and
+ConfigKit v1 changes in the [migration guide](docs/consumers/configuration-migration.md).
 
 The [v0.15.0 release notes](docs/releases/v0.15.0.md) cover error-only
 validation of concrete requests with `Engine.ValidateRequest`.

 # Configuration And API Migration
 
-Promptkit no longer installs a provider catalog or selects prompt definitions
-by descriptive version labels. Applications now choose configuration inputs
-explicitly, and execution selects one prompt by its exact ID. This guide
+This breaking pre-v1 minor migration adopts Promptkit's vanity module path,
+changes the v0.16-era keyed resources to identified lists, adopts ConfigKit v1,
+and removes prompt-version labels.
+Promptkit does not install a provider catalog; applications choose configuration
+inputs explicitly, and execution selects one prompt by its exact ID. This guide
 explains the shape changes and decisions an application must make; it is not an
 automatic migration tool. The [framework format reference](../formats.md) owns
 the current configuration contract, and the root package GoDoc owns exact API
 signatures and errors.
 
+## Update Go Imports
+
+Promptkit's module and public package import path is now
+`go.maximumdirect.net/promptkit`, replacing
+`gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit`. Update application, library, test, and
+generated imports, then select a release using the new declaration:
+
+```sh
+go get go.maximumdirect.net/promptkit@VERSION
+go mod tidy
+```
+
+Replace `VERSION` with a release that declares the vanity module path.

+
+## Deliver The Hosted Release
+
+After source publication, keep a clean checkout at the published tag's commit:
+
+```sh
+./scripts/releasekit.sh deliver vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
+```
+
+The profile selects page-only Gitea delivery for this repository. The hosted
+body is the complete checked-in note, including its licensing footer. There are
+no binary assets, checksum manifests, candidate revalidation, or CI waits.
+ReleaseKit checks delivery credentials during delivery, not as a publication
+gate. Report the hosted URL on success; delivery failure leaves the source
+release complete.
+
+For a later retry, use a clean checkout of the original tag with its recorded
+module files and supply the token there. In a separate checkout, for example:
+
+```sh
+git switch --detach vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
+./scripts/releasekit.sh deliver vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
+```
+
+Resolve uncertain hosted writes before retrying the same immutable version.
+Matching content is accepted; conflicts are not overwritten. Do not rerun
+`publish` or move tags to repair delivery. Follow the upstream
+[delivery guide](https://forge.maximumdirect.net/base-layer/releasekit/src/tag/v0.8.0/docs/consumers/delivery.md)
+for result interpretation and recovery. These commands apply to tags containing
+this delivery configuration; older releases retain their original workflows.
 
 ## Failure Recovery
 
-For status 1, use the diagnostic to distinguish a validation failure from a
-known publication conflict. Correct and commit candidate defects, push `main`,
-and rerun publication with an unused version when appropriate. Status 2 means
-the invocation or profile must be corrected.
+For source-publication failures, use ReleaseKit's status and diagnostic to
+distinguish a candidate defect from a publication conflict. Correct and commit
+candidate defects, push `main`, and rerun publication as appropriate. A failure
+after local tag creation may leave a ref even when its object ID is unavailable.
 
-For status 3, do not retry or remove the local tag until the remote outcome is
-resolved. ReleaseKit reports the attempted version, tag object, and recovery
-state, including the captured publication endpoint when available. Use that
-endpoint—not merely the current `origin` URL—to query the exact tag; follow the
-upstream
-[failure-recovery procedure](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/ReleaseKit/src/tag/v0.4.1/docs/release.md#resolve-failures):
+Status 3 means the push outcome remains unknown. Do not retry or remove the local
+tag until the authoritative outcome is resolved. ReleaseKit attempts to save
+private publication evidence and reports a record path or a separate recording
+warning. A recording failure does not change the publication outcome.
+
+Use the recovery command reported for that attempt, or discover local records
+and explicitly select the matching attempt:
 
 ```sh
-releasekit_endpoint='COPY_CAPTURED_ENDPOINT'
-releasekit_version='vX.Y.Z'
-test "$(git ls-remote --get-url -- "$releasekit_endpoint")" = "$releasekit_endpoint" &&
-  git ls-remote --refs -- "$releasekit_endpoint" "refs/tags/$releasekit_version"
+./scripts/releasekit.sh publication-attempts
+./scripts/releasekit.sh reconcile --record /absolute/path/to/selected-record.json
 ```
 
-Compare the returned object ID with the reported tag object. An exact match
-confirms publication. A missing ref confirms absence only when the endpoint
-identity check and query both succeed. If either check fails, the outcome
-remains unknown; correct the transport configuration and resolve it before
-retrying. Only after authoritative absence is confirmed may an unpublished
-local tag be removed before correcting the candidate or retrying. Never move,
-overwrite, or delete a published tag.
+Discovery is local; reconciliation observes the original destination without
+rerunning validation, changing tags, or delivering hosted content. Neither is
+a routine gate after successful publication. Follow the upstream
+[recovery procedure](https://forge.maximumdirect.net/base-layer/releasekit/src/tag/v0.8.0/docs/release.md#resolve-publication-failures)
+for outcomes, incomplete evidence, and older attempts without records.
 
-## Policy Changes
+Records are stored under Git's common directory by default and can contain
+credential-bearing endpoints. Keep them private, out of source control and
+shared logs; retain them while needed for recovery and remove them when that
+value expires. See the [evidence guide](https://forge.maximumdirect.net/base-layer/releasekit/src/tag/v0.8.0/docs/consumers/publish.md#retain-and-reconcile-publication-evidence)
+for storage and retention details.
 
-Update the policy and this procedure together when changing release governance.
-Consumers own their dependency-availability and release checks; their readiness
-does not delay completion of a Promptkit release.
+Current absence does not prove a version was never published. Remove a retained
+local tag only after establishing absence and confirming it was not already
+published or used by another release channel. Never reuse a known published
+version or replace a published tag or hosted page. Corrections require a new
+appropriate version.

+# Promptkit v0.17.0
+
+This release adopts the vanity module path `go.maximumdirect.net/promptkit`
+and ConfigKit v1.0.0, standardizes configuration resources as identified lists,
+and removes descriptive prompt-version metadata. These are intentional breaking
+changes before v1. The minimum supported Go version increases from 1.26.0 to
+1.27.0 for the ConfigKit v1 migration.
+
+## Breaking Changes And Upgrade
+
+Consumers upgrading from v0.16.0 should follow the
+[configuration and API migration guide](../consumers/configuration-migration.md):
+
+- Change Promptkit imports from `gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit` to
+  `go.maximumdirect.net/promptkit`. Update packages that exchange Promptkit
+  types together; old-path and vanity-path types are distinct.
+- Change ConfigKit imports to `go.maximumdirect.net/configkit` at v1.0.0 and
+  adopt its renamed public inspection types and fields where used.
+- Convert root and collection `prompts`, `profiles`, and `backends` from keyed
+  mappings to lists whose records contain an explicit `id`. Collections remain
+  keyed by namespace. Sibling inheritance now uses `extends: {id: parent}`;
+  later same-ID records replace lower records in full.
+- Change `ProfileSource` and `BackendSource` calls to pass slices of
+  `ProfileConfig` and `BackendConfig`, setting each record's `ID`.
+- Change source-root `configkit:` controls to `config:`. Imports are optional
+  unless marked `required: true`. Optional Promptkit specification headers now
+  use `version: 2` or `version: "2"`; headerless sources remain valid.
+- Remove descriptive prompt `version` values and code consuming `PromptVersion`,
+  `PromptIdentity.Version`, or corresponding `prompt_version` output members.
+  Collection `release_version` labels remain available. Prompt hashes may change
+  across this migration.
+
+After adapting Go imports, configuration, and API calls, use Go 1.27.0 or newer:
+
+```sh
+go get go.maximumdirect.net/promptkit@v0.17.0
+go mod tidy
+```
+
+Earlier tags retain their original module declarations. No permanent local
+replacement is needed for this cutover. See the
+[framework format reference](../formats.md) for current configuration semantics
+and the [maintained preparation example](../../examples/go-library/prepare/main.go)
+for explicit composition, source-relative imports, and scoped discovery.
+
+## Configuration Inspection And Execution
+
+Configuration inspection and diffs expose ConfigKit's composed values and
+provenance, including list-index paths. Promptkit applies domain normalization
+and execution defaults to owned interpretations without replacing the source
+origins needed for relative resources. Profile inspection and preparation expose
+their interpreted or effective settings. See the
+[migration guide](../consumers/configuration-migration.md#select-and-compose-the-configuration-you-need)
+for the distinction and inspection-path updates.
+
+## Maintainer Tooling
+
+Release tooling now uses the module-selected ReleaseKit v0.8.0 through `go tool`,
+with page-only Gitea delivery and saved-publication-attempt recovery. The
+[release procedure](../release.md) describes publication and recovery.
+
+The three maintained offline examples now have ordinary Go workflow tests,
+included in the standard suite. Their separate Python runner and custom release
+hook have been removed; Python is no longer a normal release prerequisite.
+The optional release-wiring diagnostic remains Python. See the
+[development guide](../development.md#maintainer-validation).

+This could let configuration inspection show PromptKit-normalized values and

+Include normalization of roles and cache-control values in configured messages
+in this reevaluation. This could make inspection reflect the values used for
+execution and reduce separate normalization paths. Upstream support would need
+to preserve untouched field origins within nested message lists as well as outer
+resource lists. PromptKit would continue owning the normalization rules;
+ConfigKit would record their effects and provenance. Caller-appended messages
+would still need request-time normalization because they do not pass through
+ConfigKit.
+Consider moving these transformations only if it improves inspection consistency
+and simplifies implementation without changing execution behavior.
+
+Upstream support is the reconsideration trigger, not a dependency of the
+current ConfigKit migration or a commitment to adopt the enhancement.
