-3. Neither the name of the copyright holder nor the names of its contributors may be used to endorse or promote products derived from this software without specific prior written permission.
+  The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
+to take away your freedom to share and change the works.  By contrast,
+the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
+share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
+software for all its users.  We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
+GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
+any other work released this way by its authors.  You can apply it to
+your programs, too.
 
-THIS SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED BY THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND CONTRIBUTORS "AS IS" AND ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE DISCLAIMED. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE COPYRIGHT HOLDER OR CONTRIBUTORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES; LOSS OF USE, DATA, OR PROFITS; OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION) HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THE USE OF THIS SOFTWARE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.
+  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
+want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
+free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
+
+  To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
+these rights or asking you to surrender the rights.  Therefore, you have
+certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
+you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
+
+  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
+freedoms that you received.  You must make sure that they, too, receive
+or can get the source code.  And you must show them these terms so they
+know their rights.
+
+  Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
+(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
+giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
+
+  For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
+that there is no warranty for this free software.  For both users' and
+authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
+changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
+authors of previous versions.
+
+  Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
+modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
+can do so.  This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
+protecting users' freedom to change the software.  The systematic
+pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
+use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable.  Therefore, we
+have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
+products.  If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
+stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
+of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
+
+  Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
+States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
+software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
+avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
+make it effectively proprietary.  To prevent this, the GPL assures that
+patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
+
+  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.
+
+                       TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+  0. Definitions.
+
+  "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
+
+  "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
+works, such as semiconductor masks.
+
+  "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
+License.  Each licensee is addressed as "you".  "Licensees" and
+"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
+
+  To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
+in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
+exact copy.  The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
+earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
+
+  A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
+on the Program.
+
+  To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
+permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
+infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
+computer or modifying a private copy.  Propagation includes copying,
+distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
+public, and in some countries other activities as well.
+
+  To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
+parties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user through
+a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
+
+  An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
+to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
+feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
+tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
+extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
+work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If
+the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
+menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
+
+  1. Source Code.
+
+  The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
+for making modifications to it.  "Object code" means any non-source
+form of a work.
+
+  A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
+standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
+interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
+is widely used among developers working in that language.
+
+  The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
+than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
+packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
+Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
+Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
+implementation is available to the public in source code form.  A
+"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
+(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
+(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
+produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
+
+  The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
+the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
+work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
+control those activities.  However, it does not include the work's
+System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
+programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
+which are not part of the work.  For example, Corresponding Source
+includes interface definition files associated with source files for
+the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
+linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
+such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
+subprograms and other parts of the work.
+
+  The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
+can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
+Source.
+
+  The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
+same work.
+
+  2. Basic Permissions.
+
+  All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
+copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
+conditions are met.  This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
+permission to run the unmodified Program.  The output from running a
+covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
+content, constitutes a covered work.  This License acknowledges your
+rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
+
+  You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
+convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
+in force.  You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
+of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
+with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
+the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
+not control copyright.  Those thus making or running the covered works
+for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
+and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
+your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
+
+  Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
+the conditions stated below.  Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
+makes it unnecessary.
+
+  3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
+
+  No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
+measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
+11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
+similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
+measures.
+
+  When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
+circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
+is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
+the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
+modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
+users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
+technological measures.
+
+  4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
+
+  You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
+receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
+appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
+keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
+non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
+keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
+recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
+
+  You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
+and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
+
+  5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
+
+  You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
+produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
+terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+    a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
+    it, and giving a relevant date.
+
+    b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
+    released under this License and any conditions added under section
+    7.  This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
+    "keep intact all notices".
+
+    c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
+    License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy.  This
+    License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
+    additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
+    regardless of how they are packaged.  This License gives no
+    permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
+    invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
+
+    d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
+    Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
+    interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
+    work need not make them do so.
+
+  A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
+works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
+and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
+in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
+"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
+used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
+beyond what the individual works permit.  Inclusion of a covered work
+in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
+parts of the aggregate.
+
+  6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
+
+  You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
+of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
+machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
+in one of these ways:
+
+    a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
+    Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
+    customarily used for software interchange.
+
+    b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
+    written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
+    long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
+    model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
+    copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
+    product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
+    medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
+    more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
+    conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
+    Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
+
+    c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
+    written offer to provide the Corresponding Source.  This
+    alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
+    only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
+    with subsection 6b.
+
+    d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
+    place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
+    Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
+    further charge.  You need not require recipients to copy the
+    Corresponding Source along with the object code.  If the place to
+    copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
+    may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
+    that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
+    clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
+    Corresponding Source.  Regardless of what server hosts the
+    Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
+    available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
+
+    e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
+    you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
+    Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
+    charge under subsection 6d.
+
+  A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
+from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
+included in conveying the object code work.
+
+  A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
+tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
+or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
+into a dwelling.  In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
+doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage.  For a particular
+product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
+typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
+of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
+actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.  A product
+is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
+commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
+the only significant mode of use of the product.
+
+  "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
+procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
+and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
+a modified version of its Corresponding Source.  The information must
+suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
+code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
+modification has been made.
+
+  If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
+specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
+part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
+User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
+fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
+Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
+by the Installation Information.  But this requirement does not apply
+if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
+modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
+been installed in ROM).
+
+  The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
+requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
+for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
+the User Product in which it has been modified or installed.  Access to a
+network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
+adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
+protocols for communication across the network.
+
+  Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
+in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
+documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
+source code form), and must require no special password or key for
+unpacking, reading or copying.
+
+  7. Additional Terms.
+
+  "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
+License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
+Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
+be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
+that they are valid under applicable law.  If additional permissions
+apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
+under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
+this License without regard to the additional permissions.
+
+  When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
+remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
+it.  (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
+removal in certain cases when you modify the work.)  You may place
+additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
+for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
+
+  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
+add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
+that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
+
+    a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
+    terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
+
+    b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
+    author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
+    Notices displayed by works containing it; or
+
+    c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
+    requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
+    reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
+
+    d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
+    authors of the material; or
+
+    e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
+    trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
+
+    f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
+    material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
+    it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
+    any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
+    those licensors and authors.
+
+  All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
+restrictions" within the meaning of section 10.  If the Program as you
+received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
+governed by this License along with a term that is a further
+restriction, you may remove that term.  If a license document contains
+a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
+License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
+of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
+not survive such relicensing or conveying.
+
+  If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
+must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
+additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
+where to find the applicable terms.
+
+  Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
+form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
+the above requirements apply either way.
+
+  8. Termination.
+
+  You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
+provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
+modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
+this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
+paragraph of section 11).
+
+  However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
+license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
+provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
+finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
+holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
+prior to 60 days after the cessation.
+
+  Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
+reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
+violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
+received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
+copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
+your receipt of the notice.
+
+  Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
+licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
+this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
+reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
+material under section 10.
+
+  9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
+
+  You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
+run a copy of the Program.  Ancillary propagation of a covered work
+occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
+to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance.  However,
+nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
+modify any covered work.  These actions infringe copyright if you do
+not accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
+covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
+
+  10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
+
+  Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
+receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
+propagate that work, subject to this License.  You are not responsible
+for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
+
+  An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
+organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
+organization, or merging organizations.  If propagation of a covered
+work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
+transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
+licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
+give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
+Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
+the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
+
+  You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
+rights granted or affirmed under this License.  For example, you may
+not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
+rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
+(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
+any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
+sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
+
+  11. Patents.
+
+  A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
+License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based.  The
+work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
+
+  A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
+owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
+hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
+by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
+but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
+consequence of further modification of the contributor version.  For
+purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
+patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
+this License.
+
+  Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
+patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
+make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
+propagate the contents of its contributor version.
+
+  In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
+agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
+(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
+sue for patent infringement).  To "grant" such a patent license to a
+party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
+patent against the party.
+
+  If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
+and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
+to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
+publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
+then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
+available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
+patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
+consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
+license to downstream recipients.  "Knowingly relying" means you have
+actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
+covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
+in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
+country that you have reason to believe are valid.
+
+  If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
+arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
+covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
+receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
+or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
+you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
+work and works based on it.
+
+  A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
+the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
+conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
+specifically granted under this License.  You may not convey a covered
+work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
+in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
+to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
+the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
+parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
+patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
+conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
+for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
+contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
+or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
+
+  Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
+any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
+otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
+
+  12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
+
+  If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot convey a
+covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
+not convey it at all.  For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
+to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
+the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
+License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
+
+  13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
+
+  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
+permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
+under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
+combined work, and to convey the resulting work.  The terms of this
+License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
+but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
+section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
+combination as such.
+
+  14. Revised Versions of this License.
+
+  The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
+the GNU General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
+be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+address new problems or concerns.
+
+  Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the
+Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
+Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
+option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
+version or of any later version published by the Free Software
+Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of the
+GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
+by the Free Software Foundation.
+
+  If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
+versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
+public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
+to choose that version for the Program.
+
+  Later license versions may give you additional or different
+permissions.  However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
+author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
+later version.
+
+  15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
+
+  THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
+APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
+HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
+OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
+THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
+PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
+IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
+ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+
+  16. Limitation of Liability.
+
+  IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
+THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
+GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
+USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
+DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
+PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
+EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
+SUCH DAMAGES.
+
+  17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
+
+  If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
+above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
+reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
+an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
+Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
+copy of the Program in return for a fee.
+
+                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+
+  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+
+  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+
+    This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
+    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
+    the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
+    (at your option) any later version.
+
+    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
+    GNU General Public License for more details.
+
+    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
+    along with this program.  If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+
+  If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
+notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
+
+    <program>  Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+    This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
+    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
+    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
+
+The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
+parts of the General Public License.  Of course, your program's commands
+might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
+
+  You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
+if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
+For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
+<https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+
+  The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
+into proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you
+may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
+the library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General

 # Audita
 
-Audita is a CLI that polishes transcript JSON using glossary-aware and LLM-backed correction modules.
+Audita polishes transcript JSON using glossary-aware and LLM-backed correction
+modules. It validates proposed corrections and produces corrected text plus
+reports for review and subprocess integration.
 
 ## Quickstart
 
-Build:
+From a checkout, build with Go 1.25.5 or newer:
 
 ```sh
 go build -o ./bin/audita ./cmd/audita
 ```
 
-Run the shortest useful command:
+Processing requires a reachable [compatible LLM endpoint](docs/integrations/openai-compatible-llm.md)
+and access to a model you select. The [minimal config](examples/minimal-config.yml)
+targets an unauthenticated local endpoint; edit its endpoint and
+[local profiles](examples/profiles/local/) to match your service and models. The
+[service example](examples/production-config.yml) demonstrates a named credential
+reference and a shared backend. Set its referenced environment variable before
+validating it. The [testing overlay](examples/overlays/testing.yml) selects both
+role profiles, but model cost, speed, and quality depend on your provider choices.
+
+Check configuration and profile selection offline:
 
 ```sh
-audita process ./transcript.json --glossary ./glossary.yaml --output ./corrected.json
+./bin/audita config validate --config examples/minimal-config.yml
+./bin/audita config print-effective --config examples/minimal-config.yml --view profiles
 ```
 
-Notes:
-- the transcript JSON path is required as a positional argument;
-- `--glossary` is required;
-- without `--output`, corrected transcript JSON is written to stdout.
-
-## Configuration
-
-Audita loads defaults, optional file config, environment overrides, then CLI overrides.
-
-Use these commands to validate and inspect config:
+Run the included small input with the minimal config:
 
 ```sh
-audita config validate --config ./audita.yml
-audita config print-effective --config ./audita.yml
+./bin/audita process examples/tiny-transcript.json \
+  --config examples/minimal-config.yml \
+  --glossary examples/tiny-glossary.yaml \
+  --output corrected.json
 ```
 
+This makes LLM requests. Explicit setting flags override the selected file and
+optional overlay; general environment setting overrides are no longer read.
+By default the command writes `errors.yml`, `recoveries.yml`, and `report.md`
+beside `corrected.json`. Use `--reporting=false` to suppress those files, or
+`--debug` to retain detailed run artifacts under the configured debug work
+directory. Model failures affecting some operations can still yield a completed
+transcript with applied corrections; the summary and reports identify them.
+See the [v2 migration guide](docs/migrations/v2.md) for old configurations.

 # Audita CLI Reference
 
-## Shortest Useful Command
+The shared version-2 configuration parser and offline profile inspection serve
+`process`, `config validate`, and `config print-effective`.
+The [configuration reference](config.md) owns fields, defaults, and validation;
+the [migration guide](migrations/v2.md) maps retired inputs.
+
+## Commands and help
 
 ```sh
-audita process <transcript.json> --glossary <glossary.yaml> --output <corrected.json>
+audita process <transcript.json> --glossary <glossary.yml> [flags]
+audita config validate --config <config.yml> [flags]
+audita config print-effective [flags]
 ```
 
-This command validates input files, runs the configured correction pipeline, and writes corrected transcript JSON.
+Root invocation, `--help`, `-h`, and command help succeed without loading a config
+file or resolving secrets. Unknown commands and flags return exit code `2`.
+`process` accepts exactly one transcript path, either before the flags or after
+them. With flags first, put the transcript last. Both config commands reject
+positional arguments and process-only flags.
 
-## Command Overview
+All three commands accept `--config <path>` and `--overlay <name>`. `config validate`
+requires an explicit nonempty `--config`; the other commands select the explicit
+file, then `/usr/local/etc/audita/config.yml`, then `/etc/audita/config.yml`.
+Missing system candidates are skipped; inaccessible selected files are errors.
+No file means a configuration error. `AUDITA_CONFIG` is ignored. The selected
+overlay is loaded beside the main file, not used to locate profile files.
 
-- `audita process`: process one transcript JSON file.
-- `audita config validate`: validate a versioned YAML config file.
-- `audita config print-effective`: print redacted effective config JSON.
+## Setting overrides
 
-General help:
+Only flags actually supplied override file or overlay settings. `--modules ''`
+clears the module pipeline, and an explicit numeric zero reaches configuration
+validation. The shared setting flags are:
 
-```sh
-audita --help
-audita process --help
-audita config --help
-```
+| Setting | Flags |
+| --- | --- |
+| Profile selection | `--proposal-profile`, `--validation-profile` |
+| Pipeline and output | `--modules`, `--output-schema` |
+| Validation budget | `--validation-max-prompt-tokens` |
+| Chunking | `--target-sections`, `--max-section-tokens`, `--min-section-tokens` |
+| Normalization (numeric seconds) | `--normalize-max-segment-gap`, `--normalize-ellipsis-gap`, `--normalize-max-segment-duration`, `--normalize-max-segment-tokens` |
+| Confidence thresholds | `--glossary-confidence-threshold`, `--homophones-confidence-threshold`, `--spoken-word-confidence-threshold`, `--grammar-confidence-threshold` |
+| Context | `--transcript-description` |
+| Reporting | `--reporting[=true\|false]`, `--report-dir DIR` |
+| Debug | `--debug[=true\|false]`, `--work-dir DIR` |
 
-## `process`
+`process` alone accepts `--glossary` (required) and `--output`.
+An omitted or empty output value selects stdout. Nonempty output filenames are
+used literally, including whitespace.
+Reporting defaults to enabled. `--reporting=false` disables all three ordinary
+reports; an explicit false overrides a true file or overlay setting. For stdout
+output, reports use the effective `reporting.stdout_dir`, which defaults to the
+invocation working directory. For file output, they go beside the transcript
+unless `--report-dir` is explicitly supplied. The flag selects the report
+directory for either transcript destination; a config-file or overlay value for
+`reporting.stdout_dir` alone affects stdout output only. A selected report
+directory must be nonblank when reporting is enabled. With reporting disabled,
+the report destination is inactive and is not probed. `--debug` separately
+enables retained detailed artifacts under `--work-dir`; selecting `--work-dir`
+alone does not enable capture. Configuration inspection does not create or
+probe these output directories.
+Per-role model, base URL, key, timeout, retry, and concurrency flags have been
+removed. Models and generation controls belong to PromptKit profiles, backend
+credentials and capacity to configuration, and retry/deadline settings to the
+shared LLM section. Legacy configuration environment overrides are ignored.
 
-Usage:
+## Streams and exit status
 
-```sh
-audita process <transcript.json> [flags]
-```
+`config validate` loads settings and both selected PromptKit profiles offline,
+then prints `config is valid` on success. `config print-effective` accepts
+`--view settings|profiles|explain` and defaults to `settings`. Settings writes
+ConfigKit's redacted effective-settings YAML. Profiles writes an Audita-owned
+YAML summary of selected ID, backend, model, sampling controls, per-attempt
+timeout, service tier, and reasoning effort for each role. It omits credentials,
+endpoints, and arbitrary extra provider parameters. Explain writes a YAML
+sequence of field paths, source origins, and recorded derivations without
+resolved setting values. An inherited field may also include an `inheritance`
+sequence; each step identifies `from`, `to`, and `reference` paths as JSON
+pointers. These fields describe the effective inheritance chain without
+including configuration values. A direct child override reports its own source
+instead. Debug configuration origins use the same explanation shape. These views
+share the same settings and profile validation path as `process`. Unknown views
+are usage errors. The effective settings YAML is for inspection and is not
+guaranteed reloadable.
 
-Input requirements:
-- exactly one transcript JSON positional argument is required;
-- `--glossary <path>` is required.
+For `process`, `--output` writes the corrected transcript to a file and leaves
+stdout empty on success. Without it, stdout carries transcript JSON only on
+success. Enabled reporting creates `errors.yml`, `recoveries.yml`, and
+`report.md` in the selected directory. Successful stderr begins with
+`Completed: N corrections applied; E work units with errors; R recoveries.`
+Report and debug locations follow only when created. Model-operation failures
+can coexist with a completed run and applied corrections; read the YAML reports
+for details. Debug artifacts are created only with `--debug`. See the
+[report contract](integrations/output-files.md).
 
-Config path selection for `process`:
-1. `--config <path>`
-2. `AUDITA_CONFIG`
-3. `/usr/local/etc/audita/config.yml` (if present)
-4. `/etc/audita/config.yml` (if present)
+Exit codes are `0` for success, `1` for runtime or output failure, and `2` for
+usage or configuration input errors. Invalid settings and profiles return `2`;
+broken embedded assets, caller cancellation, fatal processing, and required
+output failures return `1`. A late report-write failure can follow a published
+transcript; exit status and report status remain authoritative.
+Configuration commands inspect profiles without contacting a provider.

 # Audita Configuration
 
-## Scope
+This reference describes the version-2 configuration loader in `internal/core/config`.
+Use the maintained [local](../examples/minimal-config.yml) and
+[service](../examples/production-config.yml) examples with their separately
+selected [local profiles](../examples/profiles/local/) and
+[service profiles](../examples/profiles/service/), plus the optional
+[testing overlay](../examples/overlays/testing.yml).
+The [ConfigKit inheritance example](../examples/configkit-inheritance.yml)
+shows a local child backend reusing and overriding sibling settings.
+Choose real models for your endpoint; a testing profile makes no cost or quality
+guarantee. See the [migration guide](migrations/v2.md) for retired inputs.
 
-This is the canonical configuration reference for Audita.
+## Loading and precedence
 
-It documents:
-- config path resolution;
-- effective precedence across defaults, file config, environment, and CLI;
-- supported `version: 1` YAML schema;
-- environment overrides;
-- CLI override relationship;
-- validation and secrets behavior.
+The application selects one main YAML file: an explicit `--config`, then
+`/usr/local/etc/audita/config.yml` if present, then `/etc/audita/config.yml`
+if present. Missing system candidates are skipped; an explicit missing or empty
+path, inaccessible selected file, or absence of any selected file is an error.
+`config validate` requires an explicit file. ConfigKit loads built-in defaults,
+the selected file, an optional named overlay from `overlays/<name>.yml` beside the
+main file, and only explicitly supplied setting overrides, in that order. Imports
+and secret-directory bootstrap are disabled. Unknown fields and missing, null,
+or non-integer `version: 2` are errors. Version-1 files require migration; no
+compatibility loader or implicit environment configuration remains.

+After overlay and explicit CLI override precedence is applied, ConfigKit resolves
+native sibling inheritance before typed decoding. Any input mapping may use
+`extends: <sibling-name>`; the child keeps its key, inherits parent settings, and
+overrides them with its own settings. Selected overlay and CLI values therefore
+participate in inheritance at their normal precedence. The generic syntax and
+resolution rules are defined by ConfigKit v0.5.0's
+[sibling inheritance contract](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/ConfigKit/src/tag/v0.5.0/docs/config.md#sibling-inheritance).
 
-## Loading Model
+`extends` is reserved structural input in base files, imports, overlays, and
+other application input mappings, including mapping values supplied by explicit
+CLI setting overrides. ConfigKit consumes it before typed decoding. A previously
+valid backend whose ID is literally `extends` cannot be represented under this
+rule. Rename that backend to a non-conflicting ID and update every PromptKit
+profile that selects it. This compatibility impact means the upgrade does not
+promise that every previously valid configuration remains valid.
 
-Path resolution for `audita process` and `audita config print-effective`:
-1. `--config <path>`
-2. `AUDITA_CONFIG`
-3. `/usr/local/etc/audita/config.yml` (if present)
-4. `/etc/audita/config.yml` (if present)
+Inherited values count as explicit input, including zero, false, empty, and
+null. Existing field rules still apply: for example, inherited backend
+concurrency must be positive, while an inherited queue capacity of zero is
+valid. Parent backends undergo the same decoding and application validation as
+other backends, whether or not a selected profile uses them. A child
+`credential: null` removes the child's inherited credential; it does not remove
+the parent's credential reference, which remains subject to ordinary secret
+resolution.
 
-Missing explicit path behavior:
-- missing `--config` target is an error;
-- missing `AUDITA_CONFIG` target is an error.
+Validation runs after overlays, explicit overrides, and derived settings have
+resolved. An override can therefore repair an invalid lower-precedence setting
+when that setting can be decoded. ConfigKit retains field origins and derivations
+for effective-configuration inspection. Its effective YAML redacts resolved
+credentials.
 
-Missing default-path files are non-fatal.
+### PromptKit profiles and operator prompts
 
-## Effective Precedence
+`profiles_dir` selects a PromptKit configuration root, resolved against the
+selected main file's directory unless it is absolute. The root may contain
+keyed `profiles`, `backends`, and `prompts` definitions; it is not limited to
+profile-only files. IDs come from literal YAML mapping keys, never filenames.
+Multiple definitions may share a document, and a document may contribute to any
+of the supported mappings. Directory discovery is recursive, but discovery
+order does not establish field precedence. Contributions within each source
+group must compose without conflicting values.
 
-`audita process`:
-1. defaults
-2. file config
-3. environment overrides
-4. CLI overrides
+PromptKit assembles sources in this order: its selected catalogs and owned
+defaults, Audita's embedded prompt/schema inputs, operator documents under
+`profiles_dir`, then the application backend mapping. The application mapping
+owns each configured endpoint, concurrency limit, queue capacity, and credential
+environment lookup. Other supported provider fields can be contributed by the
+operator documents. Imports remain disabled. The current maintained examples
+select separate roots: [local](../examples/profiles/local/) and
+[service](../examples/profiles/service/), so definitions for one backend do not
+enter the other example's final configuration.
 
-`audita config print-effective`:
-1. defaults
-2. file config
-3. environment overrides
+Both selected roles must resolve to an existing profile, registered backend,
+nonblank effective model, and nonblank endpoint. The normalized effective
+endpoint must match the application backend endpoint. A selected profile cannot
+introduce a competing `api_key_env` lookup; the application backend credential
+supplies the runtime key when required. Other unselected profiles may be
+partial, but every final backend, profile, and prompt definition is validated
+when the engine is constructed. A malformed or conflicting unused definition
+can therefore make the selected root invalid. A missing selected root is an
+operator configuration error; an empty root may contribute no definitions.
 
-`audita config validate`:
-1. defaults
-2. file config
-
-`config validate` is intentionally file-only (no environment overrides).

-
-## YAML Schema (`version: 1`)
-
-Supported file version:
-- `version: 1` (required)
-
-Unknown YAML fields are rejected.
+Profile IDs and parent IDs are exact, literal keys. PromptKit profiles can use
+native `extends` inheritance; child fields override inherited fields, while
+unmentioned controls survive changes to model or backend. For example:
 
 ```yaml
-version: 1
-
-pipeline:
-  modules: [glossary, homophones, glossary, spoken_word, grammar]
-
-output:
-  schema: bare-segments

+    top_p: 0.8
+  "proposal fast":
+    extends: "shared~base"
+    model: faster-model
+    temperature: 0
 ```
 
-Duration-parsing behavior:
-- `llm.*.timeout`: integer seconds or duration string; duration strings must resolve to whole seconds.
-- `normalization.*` duration-like fields: numeric seconds or duration string.
+Presence matters. Explicit `temperature: 0` is sent as zero; omission leaves it
+unspecified; null suppresses an inherited temperature. Other fields have their
+own native null and omission rules. Provider `extra_params` maps merge
+recursively, and a null provider value is sent as JSON null. See the pinned
+[PromptKit format reference](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit/src/tag/v0.12.0/docs/formats.md)
+for the complete field semantics.
 
-## Environment Overrides
+Operator documents can also override an embedded prompt/version, including its
+messages and definition-level output settings. Shared variables supplied by the
+adapter are rendered only when an effective message references them; Audita does
+not append omitted shared text. Audita's per-call schemas, structural repair
+budget, and downstream domain validators remain in force. The engine captures
+effective definitions and message-file contents when constructed, so edits are
+observed only by a newly constructed runtime.
 
-Modules:
-- `AUDITA_MODULES`
+### Migrating PromptKit profile documents
 
-Config path:
-- `AUDITA_CONFIG`
+For the PromptKit v0.11 format, wrap each profile's fields under
+`profiles: {<literal-id>: ...}`, remove inner `id`, and replace
+`base_profile` with `extends`. Profile and prompt IDs are mapping keys, so they
+need not match source filenames. Review zeros, omitted values, and nulls against
+the native presence rules before deploying. Select a root whose final
+definitions have valid backend references; eager validation applies even to
+unselected definitions. See the complete maintained [local](../examples/minimal-config.yml)
+and [service](../examples/production-config.yml) examples and the pinned
+[consumer migration guide](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit/src/tag/v0.12.0/docs/consumers/pkg-promptkit.md#migrate-from-the-previous-configuration-api).
+This incompatible profile-format migration is intended for an Audita major
+release; no automatic file conversion is provided.
 
-Primary LLM:
-- `AUDITA_LLM_API_KEY` (falls back to `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` when unset)
-- `AUDITA_MODEL`
-- `AUDITA_BASE_URL`
-- `AUDITA_LLM_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`
-- `AUDITA_MAX_RETRIES`
+The [CLI inspection views](cli.md#streams-and-exit-status) show selected
+controls and field provenance separately from ConfigKit's redacted settings
+YAML. Inspection resolves both roles without provider calls.
 
-Validation LLM:
-- `AUDITA_VALIDATION_LLM_API_KEY`
-- `AUDITA_VALIDATION_MODEL`
-- `AUDITA_VALIDATION_BASE_URL`
-- `AUDITA_VALIDATION_LLM_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`

+| Field | Default | Rule |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `profiles_dir` | `profiles` | Nonempty PromptKit document root; resolved relative to the selected main file, or absolute. |
+| `backends.<id>.endpoint` | None | Required nonempty endpoint for each backend. At least one backend is required. |
+| `backends.<id>.concurrency` | `1` | Positive finite capacity; shared by both roles using that backend. |
+| `backends.<id>.queue_capacity` | `1024` | Nonnegative; zero disables waiting admission. |
+| `backends.<id>.credential` | Unset | Optional environment-variable secret reference; omission or null means unauthenticated use. |
+| `llm.proposal_profile` | None | Required nonempty profile ID. |
+| `llm.validation_profile` | Final proposal profile | Omission inherits the final proposal selection; explicit empty or null fails. |
+| `llm.transient_retries` | `2` | Nonnegative additional attempts per generation. |
+| `llm.repair_attempts` | `2` | Additional structural repair generations, from zero through three. |
+| `llm.operation_timeout` | `15m` | Positive Go duration string per logical call. |
+| `pipeline.modules` | `[glossary, homophones, glossary, spoken_word, grammar]` | Ordered module keys; repeats are meaningful and an explicit empty list runs no correction modules. |
+| `output.schema` | `bare-segments` | `bare-segments` or `audita-v1`. See [output formats](integrations/output-files.md). |
+| `validation.max_prompt_tokens` | `2048` | Positive validation batching budget. |
+| `chunking.target_sections` | Unset | Optional positive target; omission or null selects automatic chunking. |
+| `chunking.max_section_tokens` | `8192` | Positive maximum estimate. |
+| `chunking.min_section_tokens` | `2048` | Positive and no greater than maximum. |
+| `normalization.max_segment_gap` | `4.0` | Nonnegative numeric seconds. |
+| `normalization.ellipsis_gap` | `3.5` | Nonnegative numeric seconds. |
+| `normalization.max_segment_duration` | `60.0` | Positive numeric seconds. |
+| `normalization.max_segment_tokens` | `2048` | Positive token estimate. |
+| `thresholds.glossary`, `.homophones`, `.spoken_word`, `.grammar` | `0.8` each | Confidence thresholds in `[0, 1]`. |
+| `context.description` | Empty | Trimmed prompt context, at most 500 bytes. |
+| `reporting.enabled` | `true` | Write the ordinary three-file report bundle when processing. |
+| `reporting.stdout_dir` | `.` | Report directory for stdout transcript output; a `--report-dir` flag can select reports for either transcript destination. |
+| `diagnostics.debug` | `false` | Persist detailed debug artifacts when processing. |
+| `diagnostics.work_dir` | `/tmp/audita` | Parent of the retained debug run directory; required only when debug is enabled. |
 
-Chunking:
-- `AUDITA_MAX_SECTION_TOKENS`
-- `AUDITA_MIN_SECTION_TOKENS`
-- `AUDITA_TARGET_SECTIONS`
+Module keys select correction modules; validator chains remain built into them.
+The loader preserves module order and repetitions. Normalization time settings
+accept numeric seconds only. The operation timeout uses a duration string.
+`reporting.stdout_dir` must be nonblank when it supplies the active report
+destination: for stdout output, or for file output when `--report-dir` is
+explicitly supplied. File output without that flag uses the transcript's parent,
+so the configured value is inactive. Reporting-disabled runs do not select a
+report directory. `diagnostics.work_dir` must be nonblank only with debug
+enabled. These path requirements are checked when choosing process destinations,
+not during configuration inspection.
 
-Thresholds:
-- `AUDITA_GLOSSARY_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD`
-- `AUDITA_HOMOPHONES_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD`
-- `AUDITA_SPOKEN_WORD_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD`
-- `AUDITA_GRAMMAR_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD`
+## Credentials
 
-Normalization:
-- `AUDITA_NORMALIZE_MAX_SEGMENT_GAP`
-- `AUDITA_NORMALIZE_ELLIPSIS_GAP`
-- `AUDITA_NORMALIZE_MAX_SEGMENT_DURATION`
-- `AUDITA_NORMALIZE_MAX_SEGMENT_TOKENS`
+A backend credential is a ConfigKit secret reference containing an environment
+variable name, such as `credential: AUDITA_SERVICE_KEY`. Every reference that
+survives overlay and override resolution must name a set, nonempty variable,
+including credentials on backends unused by the selected roles. A replacement
+reference resolves only the replacement; null removes the reference. General
+`AUDITA_*` and `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` variables have no implicit setting effect.
+Secret values are available to the runtime through the resolved reference, while
+ConfigKit's effective output and provenance contain no resolved secret values.
 
-Diagnostics:
-- `AUDITA_WORK_DIR`
-- `AUDITA_WORK_DIR_RETENTION` (`auto`, `always`, `never`)
-
-Transcript description:
-- no `AUDITA_*` environment variable is currently defined.
-
-## CLI Override Relationship
-
-CLI flags override file and environment values for `audita process`.
-
-The CLI supports canonical total concurrency (`--total-llm-concurrency`) and legacy alias (`--llm-concurrency`):
-- when both are provided at the same precedence layer, canonical total wins;
-- if proposal concurrency is not explicitly set and total is set via environment or CLI, proposal concurrency inherits that total;
-- validation concurrency inherits total only when validation concurrency is unset.
-
-For full flag syntax, see [`docs/cli.md`](cli.md).
-
-## Validation Rules
-
-Validation includes:
-- supported module keys only;
-- supported output schema keys only (`bare-segments`, `audita-v1`);
-- positive timeout/concurrency/token constraints;
-- `proposal_llm <= total_llm` and `validation_llm <= total_llm` when validation is set;
-- confidence thresholds in `[0.0, 1.0]`;
-- transcript description length `<= 500` characters;
-- non-empty work dir;
-- work-dir retention in `auto|always|never`.
-
-## Secrets
-
-Recommended secret handling:
-- use `llm.proposal.api_key_env` and `llm.validation.api_key_env` in file config;
-- use `AUDITA_*_API_KEY` environment overrides or CLI key flags when needed.
-
-`api_key_env` fields contain environment variable names, not secret values.
-
-Redaction behavior:
-- `audita config print-effective` redacts resolved API keys.
-- diagnostics and report paths redact configured secret values.
-
-## Examples
-
-- Minimal config: [`examples/minimal-config.yml`](../examples/minimal-config.yml)
-- Production-style config: [`examples/production-config.yml`](../examples/production-config.yml)
-- Tiny transcript input: [`examples/tiny-transcript.json`](../examples/tiny-transcript.json)
-- Tiny glossary input: [`examples/tiny-glossary.yaml`](../examples/tiny-glossary.yaml)

+
+## Before Changing the Repository
+
+Coding agents must read and follow the [agent policy](policy/agents.md) before
+recommending, planning, or implementing changes. Use the policy reading guide
+below to select the policies applicable to the task.
+
+Confirm the requested scope and behavior contract, make focused changes in the
+owning component, and update the relevant tests and canonical documentation
+when behavior changes. The [testing policy](policy/testing.md) governs test
+sufficiency; the [documentation policy](policy/documentation.md) governs content
+ownership. Commit discipline and agent Git restrictions are in the
+[agent policy](policy/agents.md#git-commit-policy).

+## Baseline Validation
+
+Use Go 1.25.5 or newer. From the repository root:
+
+```sh
+go build -o ./bin/audita ./cmd/audita
+go test ./...
+```
+
+Run targeted package tests for touched behavior and the complete suite for

 # OpenAI-Compatible LLM Integration
 
-## Scope
+Audita uses the pinned [PromptKit](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit)
+built-in OpenAI-compatible transport. PromptKit owns chat-completions wire framing,
+provider envelope parsing, transient retries, per-generation timeouts, and JSON
+Schema repair. A backend's configured base endpoint must support the selected
+profile's model and structured JSON-schema responses; local configuration
+inspection does not contact the provider.
 
-This document defines the external LLM endpoint contract Audita currently uses.
+Audita selects a role profile, supplies its registered backend credential, and
+passes the embedded response schema as a complete per-call output contract. It
+prepares each call once, checks that the prepared target still matches the
+inspected backend and endpoint, then executes that same prepared request. A
+profile cannot introduce a separate credential environment lookup. An absent
+backend credential permits an unauthenticated local service.
 
-It covers:
-- endpoint and auth expectations;
-- structured request and response shape;
-- retry and timeout behavior;
-- diagnostics and secret redaction.
+`llm.transient_retries` counts additional attempts for eligible transient
+failures; explicit zero makes one attempt. `llm.repair_attempts` counts
+additional generations for schema-invalid model output. The operation timeout
+covers preparation, capacity waiting, retries, generation, and repair. Caller
+cancellation or an earlier deadline also applies. See [configuration](../config.md#settings)
+for defaults and [PromptKit v0.12.0's consumer contract](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit/src/tag/v0.12.0/docs/consumers/pkg-promptkit.md)
+for the pinned protocol and retry details.
 
-For user-facing CLI flags and config keys, see [`docs/cli.md`](../cli.md) and [`docs/config.md`](../config.md).
-
-## Endpoint Contract
-
-Audita sends HTTPS `POST` requests to:
-
-- `<base_url>/chat/completions`
-
-`base_url` comes from primary or validation LLM config and is required.
-
-## Authentication Contract
-
-When an API key is configured, Audita sends:
-
-- `Authorization: Bearer <api_key>`
-
-When no API key is configured, the `Authorization` header is omitted.
-
-## Request Shape
-
-Audita sends a chat-completions payload with:
-- `model`;
-- `messages` (role/content pairs);
-- `response_format` using JSON Schema strict mode.
-
-Representative shape:
-
-```json
-{
-  "model": "example-model",
-  "messages": [
-    {"role": "system", "content": "..."},
-    {"role": "user", "content": "..."}
-  ],
-  "response_format": {
-    "type": "json_schema",
-    "json_schema": {
-      "name": "correction_set",
-      "strict": true,
-      "schema": {"type": "object"}
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-Behavioral requirements enforced by Audita:
-- `model` must resolve to a non-empty value;
-- each message must have non-empty `role` and `content`;
-- `response_format.type` is always `json_schema`;
-- `response_format.json_schema.name` and `schema` must be present;
-- request schema JSON must be valid JSON.
-
-## Response Handling Contract
-
-Audita expects a successful JSON response with at least one choice and assistant content that can be interpreted as JSON.
-
-Supported assistant content forms:
-- string containing JSON;
-- raw JSON value.
-
-Audita then decodes the JSON against the expected structured output type.
-
-Current structured schema identities used by Audita runtime:
-- `correction_set`
-- `validator_decision_set`
-
-## Retries and Timeouts
-
-Retry behavior:
-- default max retries is `3` when unset;
-- retries apply to retryable transport/decode/server-side errors;
-- HTTP `429` and `5xx` responses are retryable;
-- retry stops immediately when context is canceled or deadline expires.
-
-Timeout behavior:
-- request timeout is derived from configured LLM timeout settings;
-- timeout/cancellation propagate through HTTP requests and return nonzero process failures.
-
-## Error Behavior
-
-Non-2xx responses fail the request.
-
-Error message extraction behavior:
-- if provider JSON includes `error.message`, Audita surfaces that message;
-- else if provider JSON includes top-level `message`, Audita surfaces that;
-- otherwise Audita surfaces status code plus response body text.
-
-Malformed or incompatible structured responses fail safely and are surfaced as runtime errors or validator/proposal warnings depending on call site.
-
-## Secret Redaction
-
-Configured LLM secrets are redacted from:
-- surfaced adapter/runtime errors;
-- LLM diagnostics request/response/error artifacts;
-- effective config/report artifacts that include LLM configuration material.
-
-Redaction marker:
-- `[REDACTED]`
-
-## Compatibility Boundaries
-
-This integration documentation applies only to the implemented OpenAI-compatible chat completions flow.
-
-Not part of current behavior:
-- provider SDK integration;
-- non-OpenAI-compatible API contracts;
-- server-side model routing features beyond explicitly configured model/base URL.
+A model operation that exhausts structural repair, a live-parent local operation
+timeout, capacity rejection, transport failure, malformed provider response,
+or provider HTTP failure is recoverable for that operation. Proposal generation
+then contributes no candidates from that response; a failed validation batch
+marks its candidates unavailable while other batches and later modules can
+continue. Caller cancellation, broken assets or configuration, and unknown
+internal failures remain fatal and cancel peers. Audita decodes into domain
+types only after PromptKit validates the JSON. Ordinary reports use safe reason
+codes and counts rather than provider messages. Full request/response content
+is written only with `--debug`; see [operations](../operations.md#diagnostics-directory).

+reporting. See [configuration](../config.md#settings) for selection and
+[operations](../operations.md#required-output-files) for placement and writes.
+
+With reporting enabled, Audita produces three ordinary files:
+
+- `errors.yml`: affected work units and run-level failures;
+- `recoveries.yml`: successful logical model operations with repair, service
+  retry, or response filtering;
+- `report.md`: a concise overview and complete per-chunk matrices.
+
+The YAML documents have Audita-owned schemas `audita-errors` and
+`audita-recoveries`, each with integer `version: 1`. Both contain, in order,
+`schema`, `version`, `run_id`, `status`, `started_at`, `completed_at`, `summary`,
+and an always-present `errors` or `recoveries` sequence. Status is
+`in_progress`, `completed`, or `failed`. Times are UTC RFC3339 strings;
+`completed_at` is null until finalization. A recoverable model error can appear
+with `status: completed`.
+
+## Summary Counts
+
+Both documents carry the same summary, in this order:
+
+| Count | Meaning |
+| --- | --- |
+| `work_units_total` | Configured module instances × initial chunks. |
+| `work_units_started`, `work_units_completed`, `work_units_interrupted`, `work_units_not_started` | Explicit processing states. |
+| `work_units_with_errors` | Distinct units with recoverable operation failures. |
+| `run_errors` | Fatal processing or output failures outside that unit count. |
+| `corrections_applied` | Approved proposals applied, not replacement occurrences. |
+| `llm_operations` | Structured-client invocations, including pre-dispatch failures. |
+| `proposal_responses` | Structurally usable proposal responses. |
+| `recoveries` | Successful operations with one or more recovery reasons. |
+| `proposal_responses_with_filtering` | Proposal responses that filtered at least one defective proposal. |
+
+Unknown counts before processing are `null`; completed empty counts are `0`.
+Retries and repair generations are details of one operation, not additional
+operations. Provider token usage, execution timing, and attempt-level evidence
+remain in opt-in debug files.
+
+## Error and Recovery Records
+
+An `errors` record with `scope: work_unit` identifies zero-based `stage_index`
+and `chunk_index`, module key/instance, initial segment range, applied-correction
+count, and a `failures` sequence. Each failure identifies the operation
+(`proposal`, `validation`, or `validation_input`), optional validator and
+zero-based batch index, safe reason/message, sorted proposal indices when
+known, and execution counts when available. Multiple failed batches in one
+work unit form one error record. `scope: run` instead records phase, safe reason
+and message, optional origin, and output path where relevant. It can describe
+a fatal error or secondary output-write failure without inventing a failed
+model work unit. Raw provider errors and transcript text are absent.
+For `validation_decisions_invalid`, proposal indices identify only candidates
+whose required decisions were unavailable. Other candidates in the same batch
+may still be approved or rejected normally.
+
+Each recovery identifies its work unit and successful operation, with sorted
+`reasons`, a safe message, available execution counts, and sorted
+`filtered_proposals` details. One recovery can contain `output_repaired`,
+`service_recovered`, and `proposals_filtered` together. Filtering covers
+defective response proposals; low confidence, protected-term rejection,
+ordinary editorial rejection, and an apply-time conflict caused by an earlier
+accepted correction are not filtering recoveries. Failed operations are errors,
+not recoveries. The initial chunk identity remains stable even if earlier
+modules change its text.
+`validation_decisions_filtered` records unexpected validator decision indices
+ignored from a successful validation batch. It may accompany repair or service
+recovery reasons, but it does not add `filtered_proposals` or increment
+`proposal_responses_with_filtering`. A batch with unavailable requested decisions
+is an error even when unexpected indices were also ignored.
+
+## Markdown Overview
+
+`report.md` includes run ID, status, corrections, work coverage, error and
+recovery totals, input/output paths, and full work-unit error and recovery
+matrices. Rows show every initial chunk with 1-based chunk number and initial
+segment range; columns follow configured module-instance order, including
+repeats. Completed error cells are `0` or `1`; recovery cells are operation
+counts. `—` means not started and `n*` means interrupted with n facts recorded.
+An empty stage or chunk set is identified as having no work units. Short reason breakdowns count
+records containing each reason; a recovery can have several reasons, so those
+counts need not sum to the recovery total. The report refers to both YAML
+files. It does not include transcript excerpts or correction lists.
+
+## Debug-Only Files
+
+With `--debug`, `correction-ledger.json` contains proposed candidates and
+their application, rejection, or interruption details. `llm-execution.json`
+holds logical calls and PromptKit execution events; `utilization-diagnostics.json`
+groups backend capacity and timing observations while preserving known and
+complete usage semantics. Interaction request/response artifacts, selected
+profiles, configuration provenance, and input snapshots are also debug-only.
+These files are diagnostic evidence, not an alternate ordinary report schema.
+Each candidate-backed ledger entry includes `proposed_corrected_text`, the
+literal replacement span, even when it is `""` for a deletion. Applied entries
+also include `applied_corrected_text`, likewise `""` for an applied deletion.
+Rejected, unavailable, skipped, and interrupted entries omit the applied field; a module
+failure without a candidate omits both. These fields are replacement spans,
+not full resulting-segment text. Deterministic decision records now identify
+the blank-result guard as `non_empty_resulting_segment` (formerly
+`non_empty_corrected_text`); its `empty_resulting_segment` reason is unchanged.
+Validator decision records carry `disposition`: `approved`, `rejected`, or
+`unavailable`. A missing or duplicate required decision is `unavailable`, not
+an editorial rejection. The candidate ledger uses the same distinction in its
+top-level disposition. Interaction response artifacts retain supplied model
+decisions and the reconciliation result, including unavailable and ignored
+indices; unexpected indices never create candidate ledger entries.

 # Subprocess Integration
 
-## Scope
+This guide explains how a parent process can invoke Audita and consume its results.
+The [CLI reference](../cli.md) owns command syntax, streams, and exit semantics;
+[configuration](../config.md) owns discovery and precedence.
 
-This document describes how a parent process should invoke Audita as a subprocess.
+## Invocation
 
-It covers:
-- invocation shape;
-- stdout/stderr behavior;
-- output/report file behavior;
-- diagnostics and exit behavior.
+Use an argument array with the transcript path and required glossary argument,
+following the [process examples](../cli.md#commands-and-help). For machine workflows,
+select an explicit transcript file destination and a configuration path. Reports
+go beside the transcript unless an explicit `--report-dir` selects another
+directory. For stdout output, reports use the effective `reporting.stdout_dir`
+(defaulting to the invocation working directory), including a `--report-dir`
+override. A config-file or overlay value for `reporting.stdout_dir` alone does
+not redirect file-output reports. `--work-dir` selects a debug root, while
+configuration or `--debug` enables capture; the path flag alone does not.
+Supplying a configuration path also makes file selection predictable; only
+explicitly referenced credential variables are read from the environment.
 
-For full CLI and config references, see [`docs/cli.md`](../cli.md) and [`docs/config.md`](../config.md).
+Resolve the executable deliberately and set the child's working directory so
+relative input/output paths and reported artifact paths have a known base.
+Read stdout and stderr concurrently to avoid pipe blocking, and impose timeout
+or cancellation in the parent process when needed.
 
-## Recommended Invocation
+## Result Handling
 
-Use explicit output and report paths for machine workflows:
+Interpret the exit result according to the
+[CLI output and exit contract](../cli.md#streams-and-exit-status).
+Consume transcript/report data through the
+[output-file contract](output-files.md), and treat stderr as human-readable detail.
+The three reports may be absent after early configuration or destination
+failures. After initialization, failed reports can describe invalid input or
+partial processing and use the same selected report directory as successful
+runs. Exit `0` can include recoverable model errors and applied
+corrections; inspect `errors.yml` and `recoveries.yml` for those outcomes. A
+transcript may have been written before a later required report failure, so
+the file alone does not prove completion.
 
-```sh
-audita process <transcript.json> \
-  --glossary <glossary.yaml> \
-  --output <output-transcript.json> \
-  --report-json <report.json>
-```
+If processing fails, preserve available evidence and follow
+[operations recovery](../operations.md#failure-inspection-and-recovery).
+Ordinary reports are independent of optional retained debug evidence. Parent
+cancellation reaches the child through its context; Audita joins workers and
+attempts failed-status report finalization before exiting. Uncatchable
+termination can leave `in_progress` reports. Neither the existence of an output
+file nor a debug directory alone establishes successful completion.
 
-Optional commonly used flags:
-- `--config <path>`
-- `--output-schema <bare-segments|audita-v1>`
-- `--work-dir <dir>`
-- `--work-dir-retention <always|auto|never>`
-- `--transcript-description <text>`
+## Related Contracts
 
-## Stdout Contract
-
-On success:
-- with `--output`: stdout is expected to be empty;
-- without `--output`: stdout contains transcript JSON only.
-
-`--report-json` output is never written to stdout.
-
-## Stderr Contract
-
-Stderr is human-readable status/error output.
-
-On failures:
-- stderr includes a concise top-level error;
-- when diagnostics are initialized, stderr includes diagnostics directory path.
-
-Do not treat stderr as a machine-stable JSON channel.
-
-## Output and Report File Contract
-
-Transcript output:
-- `--output` writes corrected transcript JSON to the provided path;
-- output write failures return nonzero.
-
-Report output:
-- `--report-json` writes machine-readable process report JSON to the provided path;
-- run diagnostics also attempt to write their own `report.json`;
-- report write failures return nonzero;
-- on failure paths, report writing is best-effort and does not mask the primary run error.
-
-## Diagnostics Contract
-
-When run-directory initialization succeeds, per-run diagnostics artifacts are written under the configured work directory.
-
-Typical artifacts include:
-- `source-transcript.json`
-- `source-transcript-parsed.json`
-- `normalized-transcript.json`
-- `normalization-summary.json`
-- `chunking-summary.json`
-- `invocation.json`
-- `effective-config.json`
-- `utilization-diagnostics.json`
-- `correction-ledger.json`
-- `report.json`
-- `error.log` (failure)
-
-Retention behavior is controlled by `--work-dir-retention` / config.
-
-## Exit Behavior
-
-Exit codes:
-- `0`: success;
-- `1`: runtime processing/output/report failure;
-- `2`: CLI usage or configuration input error.
-
-Treat any nonzero as subprocess failure.
-
-## Parent-Process Guidance
-
-For reliable orchestration:
-- read stdout and stderr concurrently to avoid pipe blocking;
-- prefer `--output` and `--report-json` for machine parsing;
-- use timeout/cancellation in the parent process;
-- inspect diagnostics path and `report.json`/`error.log` on failure.
-
-For input file contracts, see [`docs/integrations/transcript-glossary-files.md`](transcript-glossary-files.md).

-# Transcript and Glossary File Integration
+# Transcript and Glossary Input Files
 
-## Scope
-
-This document defines the input file contracts for:
-- transcript JSON;
-- glossary YAML.
-
-These files are loaded and validated before processing begins.
+This document owns accepted input formats. Use the [CLI reference](../cli.md) for
+invocation and error exit semantics, [operations](../operations.md) for artifact
+handling, and [output files](output-files.md) for corrected-transcript serialization.
 
 ## Transcript JSON Contract
 
-Audita accepts either top-level shape:
-- JSON array of segments; or
-- JSON object with a `segments` array.
+Accepted top-level shapes are an array of segments or an object containing a
+`segments` array. The array must contain at least one segment. Unknown object
+fields are ignored by the current parser; an input envelope does not require a
+schema/version marker.
 
-Segment fields:
-- `id` (optional integer in source form);
-- `speaker` (required non-empty string);
-- `start` (required finite non-negative number);
-- `end` (required finite non-negative number, `>= start`);
-- `text` (required non-empty string);
-- `categories` (optional string array; entries must be non-empty).
+| Segment field | Type and validation |
+| --- | --- |
+| `id` | Optional integer (or null). Supplied IDs must be unique; missing IDs are accepted. |
+| `speaker` | Non-empty string |
+| `start`, `end` | Numeric seconds, finite and non-negative; end must be at least start |
+| `text` | Non-empty string |
+| `categories` | Optional array of non-empty strings |
 
-Additional rules:
-- transcript must contain at least one segment;
-- duplicate segment IDs are rejected when IDs are present.
+Supply explicit start and end times for meaningful timing. The current decoder
+uses zero for missing or null timestamps rather than enforcing their presence.
+String validation checks empty values, not whitespace trimming. Normalization can
+merge segments and reassign IDs, so source IDs need not match output IDs.
 
-Example (`examples/tiny-transcript.json`):
-
-```json
-[
-  {
-    "id": 1,
-    "speaker": "A",
-    "start": 0.0,
-    "end": 1.2,
-    "text": "hello world"
-  }
-]
-```
+The [tiny transcript](../../examples/tiny-transcript.json) is a complete copyable
+input. Invalid JSON, unsupported top-level shapes, empty transcripts, invalid field
+types, duplicate supplied IDs, and the validation failures above are rejected.
 
 ## Glossary YAML Contract
 
-Audita expects top-level `glossary` list entries.
+The top-level object contains a `glossary` list with at least one entry.
 
-Entry fields:
-- `name` (required non-empty string);
-- `category` (required non-empty string);
-- `summary` (required non-empty string);
-- `aliases` (optional list of strings; entries must be non-empty);
-- `plural` (optional string).
+| Entry field | Type and validation |
+| --- | --- |
+| `name` | Non-empty string |
+| `category` | Non-empty string |
+| `summary` | Non-empty string |
+| `aliases` | Optional list of non-empty strings |
+| `plural` | Optional string |
 
-Additional rules:
-- glossary must contain at least one entry.
+The parser checks empty strings without trimming them. Unknown YAML fields are
+ignored by the glossary parser, unlike the stricter
+[configuration-file schema](../config.md#loading-and-precedence).
 
-Example (`examples/tiny-glossary.yaml`):
-
-```yaml
-glossary:
-  - name: Audita
-    aliases:
-      - audita
-    category: product
-    summary: The Audita transcript correction CLI.
-```
-
-## Validation Failure Behavior
-
-Representative transcript validation failures:
-- invalid JSON;
-- unsupported top-level shape;
-- empty `speaker` or `text`;
-- invalid times (`NaN`, `Inf`, negative, or `end < start`);
-- duplicate IDs;
-- empty transcript array.
-
-Representative glossary validation failures:
-- invalid YAML;
-- empty or missing glossary entries;
-- missing required entry fields;
-- empty alias values.
-
-These failures surface as schema errors and the process exits nonzero.
-
-## CLI Usage
-
-Minimal invocation:
-
-```sh
-audita process ./transcript.json --glossary ./glossary.yaml --output ./corrected.json
-```
-
-See also:
-- [`docs/cli.md`](../cli.md)
-- [`docs/config.md`](../config.md)
-- [`examples/tiny-transcript.json`](../../examples/tiny-transcript.json)
-- [`examples/tiny-glossary.yaml`](../../examples/tiny-glossary.yaml)
+The [tiny glossary](../../examples/tiny-glossary.yaml) is a complete copyable input.
+Malformed YAML, an empty/missing glossary, invalid shapes, missing required text,
+and empty aliases are rejected. These formats describe input acceptance, not
+additional vocabulary restrictions.

+# Configuration and CLI Change Recipes
+
+This document owns contributor editing and validation steps for configuration,
+CLI wiring, and maintained examples. Definitions of behavior belong to the
+[configuration](../config.md) and [CLI](../cli.md) contracts.
+
+## Changing Configuration
+
+1. Update fields, defaults, loading, and validation in `internal/core/config`.
+2. Update file, selected overlay, credential reference, and CLI mapping as
+   applicable. Preserve the precedence defined in the
+   [configuration contract](../config.md#loading-and-precedence), including the
+   distinct validation and effective-config commands.
+3. Update redaction when secrets are involved.
+4. Review configuration tests and related CLI tests for precedence, validation,
+   and source-specific behavior. Add or adjust tests for the changed contract
+   according to the [testing policy](../policy/testing.md).
+5. Update the configuration reference and affected [examples](../../examples/).
+
+## Changing CLI Behavior
+
+1. Implement parsing and wiring in `internal/cli`.
+2. Preserve [stream and exit contracts](../cli.md) unless a change is intentional
+   and documented. Review [subprocess integration](../integrations/subprocess.md)
+   when changing output, error, or report handling.
+3. Review `internal/cli` tests and `cmd/audita` subprocess tests; update coverage
+   for the changed behavior.
+4. Update the CLI reference and affected integration guidance.
+
+## Validating Examples
+
+Keep complete copyable files in [examples](../../examples/) and link to them from
+their canonical contract documentation. Keep them valid and secret-free.
+From the repository root, validate the maintained configuration examples:
+
+```sh
+go run ./cmd/audita config validate --config examples/minimal-config.yml
+go run ./cmd/audita config validate --config examples/configkit-inheritance.yml
+AUDITA_SERVICE_KEY=synthetic-example go run ./cmd/audita config validate --config examples/production-config.yml
+AUDITA_SERVICE_KEY=synthetic-example go run ./cmd/audita config validate --config examples/production-config.yml --overlay testing
+go run ./cmd/audita config print-effective --config examples/minimal-config.yml --view profiles
+go run ./cmd/audita config print-effective --config examples/configkit-inheritance.yml --view explain
+```
+
+The local and ConfigKit inheritance files select `profiles/local`; the service
+file selects `profiles/service`, including the service testing profiles. Keep
+these roots separate because PromptKit validates every final definition in a
+selected root, including definitions that are not selected for a role.
+
+Only referenced credentials read environment values; use a controlled synthetic
+value when validating the service example. Check affected CLI examples against the
+parser and use schema tests for maintained transcript/glossary inputs. Example
+validation should not invoke a live LLM merely to check documentation.
+
+## Runtime Change Checks
+
+Select checks according to the [testing policy](../policy/testing.md):
+
+- Configuration or CLI changes: inspect `internal/core/config` tests,
+  `internal/cli` tests, and `cmd/audita` integration tests.
+- Process/output changes: verify stdout, stderr, exit, output-file, and report
+  behavior against the [CLI contract](../cli.md) and
+  [subprocess guidance](../integrations/subprocess.md), including failures.
+- Report or diagnostics changes: review [report assembly tests and redaction
+  checks](diagnostics-reporting.md#key-tests), metadata fields, and artifact paths.
+- Schema or serialization changes: review [output-schema tests](output-schemas.md#key-tests)
+  and `internal/core/schema` tests, including supported formats and rejection of
+  unsupported schemas.
+- Changes affecting assembled output: inspect controlled HTTP subprocess workflows
+  and retained report/artifact assertions.
+
+Use the [contributor guide](../development.md#baseline-validation) for baseline
+commands. These recipes supplement, rather than duplicate, public contracts.

-# Audita Diagnostics and Reporting
+# Diagnostics and Reporting Internals
 
-## Scope
+The [output-file contract](../integrations/output-files.md) owns public
+schemas and the [operations guide](../operations.md) owns physical placement.
 
-This document describes diagnostics artifacts, process report mapping, and correction ledger generation.
+`internal/framework/outcomes` contains processing-owned operation references,
+counts, failure reasons, filtering details, and work states. It imports no
+reporting, CLI, or provider package. The runner records those facts per initial
+section and module instance. `internal/framework/processreport` maps them once
+into `internal/core/reporting.Snapshot`, including nullable counts, grouped
+work-unit errors, separate run errors, and one recovery per successful logical
+operation. Reports order stages, sections, validators, and batches by semantic
+identity, never concurrent completion time. The core reporting package owns
+Audita's versioned YAML DTOs, fixed Markdown rendering, and brief CLI
+completion formatter. YAML redaction walks serialized string nodes so numeric
+and boolean values retain their types. Ordinary reports omit raw causes,
+transcript text, complete decisions, and token/timing payloads.
+Validation operations with unavailable decisions report only affected requested
+indices, even when other candidates in the batch continue. Ignored extra
+validator entries yield `validation_decisions_filtered` only for a successful
+operation; they do not count as filtered correction proposals. Failed operations
+retain their execution counts and never produce a recovery record.
 
-## Run Directory Ownership
+`internal/core/diagnostics.OutputSession` owns active destination checks,
+transcript preflight, report initialization, regular-file replacement, and direct
+stream publication. Transcript input is protected from early report writes but
+may be the final transcript destination. The LLM runtime records successful reads
+through PromptKit's profile filesystem and supplies those source paths to CLI;
+no second filename-based discovery rule is used.
+CLI composes it after configuration/profile inspection and before reading
+inputs or dispatching model work. It does not create ordinary report parents.
+On a final write error it attempts other enabled reports and one failed-status
+pass; a published transcript is never erased by a later report failure.
 
-`internal/core/diagnostics` owns run-directory creation, artifact writes, and retention decisions.
-
-Stable artifact names include:
-- `source-transcript.json`
-- `source-transcript-parsed.json`
-- `normalized-transcript.json`
-- `normalization-summary.json`
-- `chunking-summary.json`
-- `utilization-diagnostics.json`
-- `correction-ledger.json`
-- `invocation.json`
-- `effective-config.json`
-- `report.json`
-- `error.log` (failure)
-
-## Process Report Mapping
-
-`internal/framework/processreport` maps runner/CLI execution facts into `reporting.ProcessReport`.
-
-Report metadata fields include:
-- `report_schema_name` (`audita-process-report`)
-- `report_schema_version` (`v1`)
-- `output_schema`
-- `config_version` (when file config exists)
-
-The report includes:
-- top-level status/error phase/error message;
-- normalization/chunking summaries;
-- diagnostics metadata paths;
-- per-module results and module summary.
-
-## Correction Ledger
-
-`internal/framework/processreport/BuildCorrectionLedger` flattens run results into `correction-ledger.json` entries.
-
-Dispositions:
-- `applied`
-- `skipped`
-- `rejected`
-- `failed`
-
-Validator decisions are split into deterministic and LLM-backed groups using validator metadata classification.
-
-## Report Write Paths
-
-- run directory always attempts to write `report.json` when possible;
-- optional `--report-json` writes an external report file;
-- on failure paths, report writing is best-effort and does not mask primary run errors.
-
-## Retention Interaction
-
-Current retention behavior:
-- failed runs are retained;
-- `always` keeps successful runs;
-- `auto` removes only clean successful runs;
-- `never` currently retains successful runs in current implementation.
-
-## Redaction
-
-Redacted data expectations:
-- effective config artifact uses config redaction;
-- diagnostics payloads and surfaced errors use LLM secret redaction;
-- reports should not include raw API key values.
+Debug is independent. Only `diagnostics.debug` creates a unique retained child
+under `diagnostics.work_dir`. CLI passes empty diagnostics paths and nil writers
+when debug is off. With debug on, source/normalized snapshots, invocation,
+effective settings, origins, profiles, initial chunk summary, correction ledger,
+indexed execution/utilization, and model interactions are written. Runner
+candidate capture includes proposals later rejected or interrupted. Ledger
+mapping uses optional string pointers so an empty proposed replacement is
+serialized for every candidate and an empty applied replacement appears only
+when that candidate applied; see the [public artifact contract](../integrations/output-files.md#debug-only-files).
+Debug write failures reach the CLI through an explicit concurrency-safe diagnostic
+callback and produce redacted stderr messages without aborting processing.
+Completed validator decisions returned with a fatal batch error remain available
+to the debug ledger; they never authorize applying an incompletely validated edit.
+Runner decision records carry the validator's explicit approved, rejected, or
+unavailable disposition into the ledger. Unavailable candidates have a distinct
+top-level ledger disposition, while fatal interruptions remain interrupted when
+no rejection or unavailable decision was returned. Successful validation
+interaction payloads contain the full decoded response, final content, and
+reconciliation outcomes; ignored indices do not become ledger candidates.
+Every debug writer uses all configured backend secrets for redaction, including
+unselected backend credentials and source snapshots. Debug can still contain
+sensitive transcript and prompt content.

 # Audita LLM Runtime
 
-## Scope
-
-This document describes the structured LLM runtime and scheduler behavior.
-
 ## Client Boundary
 
-All runtime LLM calls go through `contracts.StructuredLLMClient`.
+`llm.NewRuntime` assembles one PromptKit engine for both roles. PromptKit's
+catalogs and defaults are followed by Audita's embedded prompt and schema
+inputs, operator documents from `profiles_dir`, and the highest-priority
+application backend mapping. Audita owns backend endpoints, capacity settings,
+and resolved credentials; native PromptKit layering owns profile inheritance,
+prompt overrides, and provider-specific fields. Imports are disabled. The
+runtime inspects both selected roles offline, requiring complete model and
+endpoint values and rejecting competing profile credential lookups. A
+role-bound `llm.RoleClient` implements `structuredoutput.Client`; proposal and
+validator contracts alias that interface. Both roles share engine-local backend
+capacity.
 
-Primary adapter:
-- `internal/framework/llm/OpenAICompatibleClient`
+Successful construction captures the final definitions and referenced message
+contents. The runtime does not reload operator documents or message files during
+calls. If final engine construction fails, an embedded-only diagnostic
+construction distinguishes shipped asset failures from invalid operator input.
+An asset failure remains an asset error; when embedded construction succeeds,
+the original failure remains a configuration error. The diagnostic engine
+never replaces or executes the requested configuration, and caller cancellation
+skips this path. The captured inspection also supplies an internal source
+ledger: all loaded host YAML plus effective, source-relative host
+`content_file` resources are tracked for output-collision checks.
 
-## Request/Response Behavior
+For each logical call, the adapter starts an operation context and a diagnostic
+record before preparation. It supplies the reserved hardening text, the selected
+profile and resolved backend credential, and the complete embedded schema/repair
+contract. `PrepareExecution` produces the exact messages and hashes retained in
+an Audita snapshot. The adapter checks the prepared backend and endpoint before
+`RunPrepared`. It records available final content, usage, model, and profile
+metadata and decodes only a validated result. Call hooks expose logical
+start/finish records and PromptKit execution events for debug utilization.
 
-The OpenAI-compatible adapter sends chat completions requests with:
-- model;
-- messages;
-- `response_format.type = json_schema`;
-- strict schema envelope (`name`, `schema`, `strict=true`).
+The [integration contract](../integrations/openai-compatible-llm.md) describes

-## Response Schema Registry
+## Orchestration
 
-Structured response schemas are registered in `internal/framework/responseschema`:
-- `correction_set`
-- `validator_decision_set`
-
-Each schema includes stable diagnostics metadata (`id`, `version`, `name`, `sha256`).
-
-## Retries and Error Handling
-
-Adapter retries apply to retryable conditions (for example transport/decoding/retryable status classes) up to configured `max_retries`.
-
-Errors are sanitized to redact configured API-key values before surfacing.
-
-Malformed structured output detection is shared through `internal/framework/structuredoutput` and is used by:
-- proposal generation;
-- LLM-backed validators.
-
-## Scheduling and Concurrency
-
-`internal/framework/llm/Scheduler` provides FIFO, context-aware permit gating.
-
-Runner composes scheduler limits across:
-- total LLM concurrency;
-- proposal LLM concurrency;
-- validation LLM concurrency.
-
-Scheduler release is guarded to avoid permit leaks on cancellation/error.
-
-## Diagnostics and Redaction
-
-`internal/framework/llm/DiagnosticsWriter` writes request/response/error artifacts.
-
-Configured secrets are derived from `llm.ConfiguredSecrets(cfg)` and redacted from:
-- diagnostics payloads;
-- surfaced runtime/adapter errors.

+CLI processing supplies two role clients from the same engine to the runner.
+PromptKit's per-backend admission applies to both roles and every generation,
+retry, and repair. The runner still processes module instances in order,
+collects concurrent section work deterministically, and cancels remaining
+section work only on fatal failures. `llm.DiagnosticsWriter` remains the protected
+request/response artifact writer. `llm.ObservationCollector` captures metadata
+events under a short mutex and freezes them after runner work joins. Its logical
+records include preparation failures; summary usage comes from terminal events
+once per call and retains knownness and completeness for each field. Runner wall
+and validator timings remain separate from provider attempts. Ordinary reports
+derive compact runner outcomes; full observations are debug-only.

+## Scope and Ownership
 
-This document describes the implemented transcript output schema registry.
+`internal/core/outputschema` owns encoder registration and resolution. External
+JSON envelopes and segment fields are defined by the
+[output-file contract](../integrations/output-files.md#corrected-transcript);
+selectable values and defaults belong to

-## Registry Ownership
+## Resolution and Encoding
 
-Output schema registry is owned by `internal/core/outputschema`.
+Configuration validation checks registry support. CLI orchestration resolves the
+selected encoder, passes the final transcript to it, and routes the encoded bytes
+to the destination defined by the [CLI contract](../cli.md#streams-and-exit-status).
+An unsupported key fails validation or resolution rather than selecting an
+implicit fallback.
 
-Supported schema keys:
-- `bare-segments`
-- `audita-v1`
+The registry delegates bare segment serialization to the transcript schema
+package and uses an envelope encoder for the versioned form. Report construction
+receives the selected key separately; see [report assembly](diagnostics-reporting.md).
 
-## Schemas
+## Changing an Encoder

-  - `version: "v1"`
-  - `segments: [...]`
-
-Segment fields include `id`, `speaker`, `start`, `end`, `text`, and optional `categories`.
-
-## Validation and Resolution
-
-Config validation and runtime resolution both reject unsupported schema keys.
-
-Unknown schema keys fail with `unsupported output schema` before output emission.

 ## Main Execution Path (`audita process`)
 
-High-level flow:
-1. CLI loads effective config and validates CLI requirements.
-2. Run directory is created and invocation/effective config artifacts are written.
-3. Transcript/glossary files are loaded and parsed.
-4. Transcript is normalized and chunked.
-5. `runner.Run` executes configured module instances.

 # Audita Internal Pipeline
 
-## Scope
+The [input contract](../integrations/transcript-glossary-files.md) owns input
+formats; [configuration](../config.md) owns settings; the
+[output contract](../integrations/output-files.md) owns serialized results.
 
-This document describes the implemented `audita process` pipeline.
+1. CLI filesystem adapters read transcript and glossary files. Schema parsing
+   produces source objects; transcript segments enter canonical normalization.
+2. Normalization sorts and merges segments using configured time and token
+   limits, reassigning IDs where needed.
+3. The runner partitions the normalized transcript exactly once before its
+   module loop. Initial section identity, segment membership, and token
+   estimates stay fixed while text evolves.
+4. Module instances execute in configured order. Sections may propose
+   concurrently, but proposal indices follow section order and response order.
+5. Deterministic validators precede LLM-backed validators. Every submitted
+   candidate receives one decision per validator on a normal return. Fatal returns
+   may preserve a checked subset of completed decisions as diagnostic evidence.
+   Recoverable failed batches mark their candidates unavailable; successful
+   survivors continue through all required validators.
+6. Only fully approved proposals reach application. Corrections apply in
+   proposal-index order within their owning section. Existing replacement
+   policies and apply-time safety checks resolve stale conflicts.
+7. CLI encodes the final transcript and publishes active files through the
+   output session. `framework/processreport` builds one snapshot for YAML,
+   Markdown, and CLI totals. Debug evidence is captured separately when enabled.
 
-## Inputs
+`runner.Run` returns the final working transcript, initial section inventory,
+explicit `not_started`/`interrupted`/`completed` work units, compact model
+operation outcomes, and per-module results. Candidate payloads are retained
+in the returned output only when debug capture is requested. A work unit can
+complete with model errors and applied corrections. Recoverable model failures
+never trigger shared cancellation. Fatal setup, internal, application, or
+parent-cancellation errors cancel peers, join workers, and preserve earlier
+committed module text for partial reports; no completed transcript is published.
 
-Pipeline inputs are:
-- effective config (`internal/core/config`);
-- transcript JSON (`internal/core/schema`);
-- glossary YAML (`internal/core/schema`).
+Required transcript/report write failures are fatal. Optional debug writes
+report safely to stderr without changing decisions or exit status. See
+[operations](../operations.md) for file placement and failure handling, and
+[architecture policy](../policy/architecture.md#correction-and-concurrency-invariants)
+for invariants.
 
-## Pipeline Phases
-
-1. Input loading and schema validation
-- transcript and glossary files are read and parsed.
-- schema failures stop the run with `transcript_schema` or `glossary_schema`.
-
-2. Normalization
-- canonical transcript segments are normalized by configured gap/duration/token settings.
-- normalization summary artifacts are written.
-
-3. Chunking
-- normalized transcript is chunked with configured max/min tokens and target sections.
-
-4. Module proposal generation
-- runner executes configured module instances in sequence.
-- each module proposes corrections per section.
-- per-section proposal generation can run concurrently.
-
-5. Validator filtering
-- validators run on candidate proposals before apply.
-- deterministic validators run before LLM-backed validators.
-- LLM validator inputs are batched by max prompt token limit.
-
-6. Deterministic apply
-- approved proposals are applied via replacement policy.
-- applied/skipped/rejected outcomes are recorded.
-
-7. Output and reporting
-- final transcript is serialized with selected output schema.
-- report, utilization diagnostics, and correction ledger are written.
-- retention policy is applied to run directory.
-
-## Runner Outputs
-
-`runner.Run` returns:
-- final transcript;
-- per-module results;
-- utilization diagnostics.
-
-CLI/reporting then map this into process report and diagnostics artifacts.
-
-## Failure Behavior
-
-Representative failure phases include:
-- `run_dir_creation`
-- `transcript_read`, `glossary_read`
-- `transcript_schema`, `glossary_schema`
-- `chunking`
-- `runner_setup`, `runner_execution`
-- `output_schema`, `serialization`, `output_write`, `stdout_write`
-
-When diagnostics are available, failure stderr includes diagnostics path.
-
-## Invariants
-
-- module execution order follows configured module sequence;
-- proposal/validator nondeterminism is isolated before deterministic apply;
-- proposal indices are assigned deterministically by section order;
-- output/report artifacts are generated from run results, not speculative state.

 # Audita Prompt Registry

-## Registry Ownership
+PromptKit reads the embedded definitions as shipped defaults and renders their
+messages from named string variables. Operator documents in `profiles_dir` may
+contribute native keyed prompt definitions and override an embedded
+prompt/version, including its messages and definition-level output settings.
+The effective operator text is captured when the runtime is constructed; the
+embedded assets remain the source of Audita's shipped task instructions. The
+role-bound adapter supplies
+`HardeningPolicy` alongside `ProposalContract` and `ValidationContract` from
+embedded fragments under `assets/shared`, after caller variables so callers
+cannot replace those instructions. Common literal-span and identity guidance
+lives in the proposal fragment; shared candidate-reference, context, and
+confidence guidance lives in the validation fragment. Module-specific policies
+and examples remain in YAML. Proposal prompts receive the section JSON, glossary
+JSON where used, and transcript description block. Validator prompts receive
+the correction payload and description block.
+The embedded prompt assets retain the shipped task instructions and
+output-schema association. An operator override controls which template
+variables its messages reference: supplying a shared variable does not append
+its text when the effective message omits that reference. The role-bound runtime
+supplies the complete JSON Schema output contract and repair count; the
+definition does not own an operator-facing repair default.
+The correction-set schema requires a string replacement and accepts an empty
+string. Proposal guidance uses it for eligible span deletion and permits literal
+spacing edits; validator guidance evaluates the full before/after segment under
+each validator's existing remit. A blank resulting segment remains a domain
+rejection, not a structural schema error.
 
-Prompt registry lives in `internal/prompts` and embeds assets under `internal/prompts/assets/**`.
+`internal/framework/responseschema` remains the only embedded source for
+`correction_set.v1.json` and `validator_decision_set.v1.json`. It exposes that
+filesystem to PromptKit and retains Audita's schema-key lookup. PromptKit's
+prepared execution supplies definition and rendered hashes; Audita does not
+recompute or promise equality with hashes from the removed template renderer.
+The small Audita registry records only prompt ID, version, source, and embedded
+path. Prepared runtime metadata belongs in diagnostics rather than the registry.
 
-Registered prompt IDs:
-- `modules.glossary.proposal`
-- `modules.homophones.proposal`
-- `modules.spoken_word.proposal`
-- `modules.grammar.proposal`
-- `validators.spoken_form_plausibility`
-- `validators.meaning_reversal_review`
-- `validators.editorial_review`
-- `validators.grammar_review`
-- `validators.spoken_word_review`
+The structured-call contract carries prompt ID/version, string variables,
+response-schema key, and logical-call attribution. Module and validator callers
+pass these values through the role-bound adapter. See the
+[LLM runtime](llm-runtime.md) for runtime assembly and
+[configuration](../config.md) for operator-selected profiles.
 
-## Metadata Model
+Proposal instructions describe literal matching, each module's replacement policy,
+source-based proposal identity, and confidence in whether an edit is warranted.
+Proposal `id` and validator `correction_index` values are short, one-based
+references scoped to each request, not internal transcript/proposal identities.
+Mapping belongs to [proposal generation](modules.md) and
+[validator reconciliation](validators.md). Validator instructions distinguish
+confidence in the verdict from the verdict itself. Compact output examples
+illustrate the supplied schema without requiring fixed JSON formatting or key
+order. The grammar article exception and glossary mishearing exception apply
+consistently across their instructions.

 ## LLM Validator Batching
 
 LLM validators:
 - build canonical validation request payloads;
-- batch by `validation_max_prompt_tokens`;
-- call structured LLM client using response schema registry.
+- batch using `validation.max_prompt_tokens` and the existing domain token estimator;
+- select an embedded prompt ID and pass payload/description variables to the
+  role-bound structured client with the validator-decision schema.
 
-Oversized single proposals are rejected with `validator_input_too_large`.
-Malformed LLM validator responses are downgraded to warnings and rejected batch decisions.
+Oversized single inputs are rejected with a consolidated
+`validation_input_too_large` operation, without a provider call. Recoverable
+model failures make only their batch candidates unavailable while other
+batches continue. PromptKit validates each complete response against the
+validator-decision JSON Schema and performs configured structural repair before
+Audita receives decoded decisions. Each actual batch presents candidates
+numbered from 1, independent of their internal proposal indices. Audita then
+reconciles those local references: one usable entry keeps its
+approval or editorial rejection; a missing or duplicate requested entry makes
+only that candidate unavailable; unexpected indices are ignored. An empty list
+makes all requested candidates unavailable. Decisions and unavailable indices
+map back to internal proposal identities; results are ordered by request identity
+and satisfy strict internal cardinality before the runner advances
+approved candidates. An unavailable candidate never advances as approved.
+Invalid confidence in a decoded test double also makes only its candidate
+unavailable; production schema validation still rejects out-of-range confidence
+before reconciliation. A partially unavailable batch records one failed
+operation with only those requested indices, while a successful batch with
+ignored extras records a decision-filtering recovery. Fatal errors stop the
+chain without returning unchecked candidates as approved. A local result builder
+retains already-collected decisions and operations on early returns; full
+cardinality checks and final sorting remain explicit on completed paths.
+Reconciliation makes no semantic retry or extra model call; guided recovery remains
+[deferred](../roadmap/future.md#domain-aware-response-recovery).
+
+Debug request metadata records `proposal_indices` in local-reference order
+(reference 1 is the first entry). Raw decoded responses and ignored indices use
+local references; reconciled decisions and unavailable indices use internal
+proposal indices. Batch token estimates use the same locally numbered payload
+as prompt encoding.
 
 ## Decision and Rejection Reporting
 
-Runner records:
-- `validator_decisions`
-- `validator_rejected`
-- warning records (including malformed response warnings)
+Runner collects decisions, rejected candidates, and operation outcomes. Ledger
+assembly groups decisions by deterministic versus LLM-backed execution metadata.

+[report and ledger contract](../integrations/output-files.md); implementation mapping
+is covered by [report assembly](diagnostics-reporting.md).

+## Supplemental Validation Context
+
+Request construction prepares one segment-position lookup and protected vocabulary
+for all candidates. Glossary selection remains candidate-specific, including the
+proposed replacement text.
+
+Each candidate includes the immediately preceding and following source segments
+available within its fixed chunk, labeled `preceding` or `following` with speaker,
+text, and categories, plus glossary entries whose names, aliases, or
+recognized plurals appear in its original/resulting text or those neighbors.
+Glossary matching reuses the protected vocabulary; entries retain glossary order.
+Model-facing candidate and neighboring context omit internal segment IDs.
+This supplies evidence such as a troupe definition for a proposed `Jesters`
+correction or an adjacent speaker turn explaining deliberate repetition. A correction
+already clear from its own segment does not require such evidence. No audio,
+out-of-chunk context, or complete transcript is implied.
+
+Context is serialized inside the validation item and included in the existing
+payload token estimate. If one enriched item exceeds the configured limit, optional
+neighbors are removed from the end first, then glossary entries from the end,
+until it fits or only required candidate data remains. Required before/after text
+is never truncated. Existing oversized-candidate handling still applies if that
+required data does not fit. Context is supplemental, not a promise that every
+relevant definition or neighboring utterance always fits. This uses the existing
+payload estimator, not a new guarantee about the provider's full context window.
+
+## Protected-Name Repetition
+
+Spoken-word cleanup may reduce repeated protected-name occurrences when every
+original protected identity still appears in the resulting segment and surviving
+spellings satisfy existing capitalization checks. Full-segment preview supports

+meaning. Intentional emphasis and substantive references remain protected by those
+reviews. Other modules retain their existing protection rules.

+# Migrating to Audita v2
+
+Audita v2 adopts ConfigKit for configuration and PromptKit for LLM execution.
+Version-1 configuration files, environment overlays, and retired flags are not
+accepted. Copy a maintained [local](../../examples/minimal-config.yml) or
+[service](../../examples/production-config.yml) example, then select real models
+in the accompanying `examples/profiles/` files. A testing overlay is shown at
+`examples/overlays/testing.yml`; its model choice carries no cost, speed, or
+quality guarantee.
+
+## Configuration and invocation
+
+Use `version: 2` in a YAML main file. `--config` selects that file; otherwise
+`process` and `config print-effective` look at
+`/usr/local/etc/audita/config.yml`, then `/etc/audita/config.yml`.
+`config validate` requires `--config`. `AUDITA_CONFIG` no longer selects a file.
+Settings resolve from defaults, main file, optional `--overlay <name>` in
+`overlays/<name>.yml`, then explicitly supplied setting flags. General `AUDITA_*`
+environment overlays no longer apply. Unknown fields and version-1 files fail;
+there is no automatic converter.
+
+Keep transcript as the positional path and `--glossary` and `--output` as
+invocation paths. The former `--report-json` output has been replaced by the
+default `errors.yml`, `recoveries.yml`, and `report.md` bundle; use
+`--reporting=false` to disable it or `--report-dir` for stdout output. Keep
+`pipeline.modules` / `--modules` and
+`output.schema` / `--output-schema`. An explicit `pipeline.modules: []` or
+`--modules ''` runs no correction modules; omission uses the default sequence.
+Ordered repetitions still matter.
+
+Move `llm.proposal.base_url` and `llm.validation.base_url` to a shared
+`backends.<id>.endpoint` when both roles use one service. Move old role models to
+PromptKit profile files and select them with `llm.proposal_profile` and
+`llm.validation_profile`, or `--proposal-profile` and
+`--validation-profile`. Omitted validation selection inherits the final proposal
+selection; explicit empty or null is invalid. `profiles_dir` defaults to
+`profiles` beside the main config. Complete profiles name a registered backend
+and model. Per-role `--base-url`, `--validation-base-url`, `--model`, and
+`--validation-model` are retired.
+
+Move old `llm.*.api_key_env` to `backends.<id>.credential`, a scalar name of a
+nonempty environment variable, such as `credential: AUDITA_SERVICE_KEY`.
+Credentials on every surviving backend must resolve, including unselected
+backends. Omit or set null for an unauthenticated local backend. Profiles cannot
+perform another key lookup. `--llm-api-key` and `--validation-llm-api-key` are
+retired. `AUDITA_LLM_API_KEY`, `OPENROUTER_API_KEY`, and
+`AUDITA_VALIDATION_LLM_API_KEY` have no implicit meaning, though any of those
+names can be used explicitly as a credential reference.
+
+Replace `concurrency.total_llm`, `.proposal_llm`, and `.validation_llm` plus
+`--total-llm-concurrency`, `--llm-concurrency`,
+`--proposal-llm-concurrency`, and `--validation-llm-concurrency` with
+`backends.<id>.concurrency` (default 1) and optional `queue_capacity` (default
+1024; zero means no waiting admission). One backend capacity is shared by both
+roles and all retry/repair attempts within this Audita process. It does not
+coordinate other processes.
+
+Move old role `timeout` values and `--llm-timeout-seconds` /
+`--validation-llm-timeout-seconds` to profile `timeout_seconds`, a per-attempt
+limit, and `llm.operation_timeout`, a Go duration such as `15m` covering the
+whole logical call. Replace old `max_retries` and `--max-retries` /
+`--validation-max-retries` with common `llm.transient_retries` (additional
+eligible attempts per generation) and `llm.repair_attempts` (additional
+generations for structurally invalid JSON). Explicit zero disables either
+feature. Cancellation and the operation deadline cover capacity waiting,
+backoff, generation, and repairs. PromptKit owns which failures can retry or
+repair; Audita does not retry semantic rejections.
+
+The following domain settings and explicit flags retain their meaning:
+
+| File field | Explicit flag |
+| --- | --- |
+| `validation.max_prompt_tokens` | `--validation-max-prompt-tokens` |
+| `chunking.target_sections` | `--target-sections` |
+| `chunking.max_section_tokens`, `.min_section_tokens` | `--max-section-tokens`, `--min-section-tokens` |
+| `normalization.max_segment_gap`, `.ellipsis_gap`, `.max_segment_duration`, `.max_segment_tokens` | `--normalize-max-segment-gap`, `--normalize-ellipsis-gap`, `--normalize-max-segment-duration`, `--normalize-max-segment-tokens` |
+| `thresholds.glossary`, `.homophones`, `.spoken_word`, `.grammar` | `--glossary-confidence-threshold`, `--homophones-confidence-threshold`, `--spoken-word-confidence-threshold`, `--grammar-confidence-threshold` |
+| `context.description` | `--transcript-description` |
+| `reporting.enabled`, `.stdout_dir` | `--reporting[=true\|false]`, `--report-dir` |
+| `diagnostics.debug`, `.work_dir` | `--debug[=true\|false]`, `--work-dir` |
+
+Normalization gaps and durations are **numeric seconds**, so replace `4s`,
+`3.5s`, and `60s` with `4.0`, `3.5`, and `60.0`. The operation timeout remains a
+Go duration string. `chunking.target_sections` may be omitted or null for
+automatic chunking; zero is invalid. Null is not a general synonym for omission:
+nonoptional scalar settings reject it. Empty `context.description` clears
+context. Legacy `diagnostics.retention` and `--work-dir-retention` are removed.
+Debug is off by default and its directory is retained whenever enabled.
+
+Remove old implicit variables `AUDITA_MODULES`, `AUDITA_MODEL`,
+`AUDITA_VALIDATION_MODEL`, `AUDITA_BASE_URL`, `AUDITA_VALIDATION_BASE_URL`,
+`AUDITA_LLM_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`, `AUDITA_VALIDATION_LLM_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`,
+`AUDITA_MAX_RETRIES`, `AUDITA_VALIDATION_MAX_RETRIES`,
+`AUDITA_TOTAL_LLM_CONCURRENCY`, `AUDITA_LLM_CONCURRENCY`,
+`AUDITA_PROPOSAL_LLM_CONCURRENCY`, `AUDITA_VALIDATION_LLM_CONCURRENCY`,
+`AUDITA_VALIDATION_MAX_PROMPT_TOKENS`, `AUDITA_TARGET_SECTIONS`,
+`AUDITA_MAX_SECTION_TOKENS`, `AUDITA_MIN_SECTION_TOKENS`,
+`AUDITA_NORMALIZE_MAX_SEGMENT_GAP`, `AUDITA_NORMALIZE_ELLIPSIS_GAP`,
+`AUDITA_NORMALIZE_MAX_SEGMENT_DURATION`, `AUDITA_NORMALIZE_MAX_SEGMENT_TOKENS`,
+`AUDITA_GLOSSARY_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD`,
+`AUDITA_HOMOPHONES_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD`,
+`AUDITA_SPOKEN_WORD_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD`,
+`AUDITA_GRAMMAR_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD`, `AUDITA_WORK_DIR`, and
+`AUDITA_WORK_DIR_RETENTION`. Put those values in the named fields above or pass
+their surviving explicit flags.
+
+## Inspecting and operating
+
+Run `audita config validate --config <file>` before processing. Use
+`audita config print-effective --config <file> --view settings|profiles|explain`
+to inspect redacted ConfigKit YAML, selected PromptKit profile controls, or
+field origins and derivations. Each view resolves both roles offline without
+calling a provider. `--overlay testing` selects the same overlay for validation,
+inspection, and processing. The old effective-config JSON format is replaced by
+YAML; settings YAML alone does not show profile-owned model controls.
+
+The [ordinary output contract](../integrations/output-files.md) now uses
+version-1 `audita-errors` and `audita-recoveries` YAML documents plus a fixed
+Markdown overview. Compact outcomes distinguish logical operations from
+provider attempts. With debug enabled, utilization remains grouped by backend
+capacity and usage fields retain known/complete flags. Debug runs write
+`effective-config.redacted.yaml`, `selected-profiles.yaml`,
+`config-origins.yaml`, `utilization-diagnostics.json`, and
+`llm-execution.json`. Request and response artifacts remain redacted debugging
+material. See [operations](../operations.md#diagnostics-directory) for placement
+and paths, [configuration](../config.md) for all settings, and the
+[CLI reference](../cli.md) for current flags.
+
+Debug ledger consumers should recognize the deterministic validator key
+`non_empty_resulting_segment` in place of `non_empty_corrected_text`. The
+`empty_resulting_segment` reason is unchanged. Candidate-backed ledger entries
+now include `proposed_corrected_text: ""` for an empty replacement, and applied
+deletions also include `applied_corrected_text: ""`; omitted fields still mean
+there was no candidate or no applied edit, respectively. See the
+[debug artifact contract](../integrations/output-files.md#debug-only-files).

 # Audita Operations
 
-## Scope
+This guide owns physical output placement and failure handling. The
+[CLI reference](cli.md) owns flags and streams, [configuration](config.md) owns
+settings, and the [output contract](integrations/output-files.md) owns schemas.
 
-This document covers operational behavior for `audita process` as currently implemented:
-- run lifecycle;
-- output and report files;
-- diagnostics artifacts;
-- run-directory retention behavior;
-- failure inspection and recovery.
+## Normal Workflow
 
-For command syntax, see [`docs/cli.md`](cli.md).
+1. Validate a version-2 configuration and its selected profiles with
+   `audita config validate --config config.yml`.
+2. Prepare a transcript and glossary following the [input contract](integrations/transcript-glossary-files.md).
+3. Run `audita process input.json --config config.yml --glossary glossary.yaml --output corrected.json`.
+4. Check the exit status, stderr summary, corrected transcript, and reports.
+   A completed run can contain recoverable model errors and still apply
+   corrections that passed every required validator.
 
-## Process Run Lifecycle
+## Required Output Files
 
-A `process` run performs these high-level steps:
-1. load effective config (defaults + optional file + env + CLI);
-2. create a per-run diagnostics directory;
-3. load transcript JSON and glossary YAML;
-4. parse/validate input schemas;
-5. normalize transcript and compute chunking;
-6. run configured modules/validators;
-7. serialize output schema and write transcript output;
-8. build and write process report;
-9. apply run-directory retention.
+Reporting is enabled by default. For file transcript output, `errors.yml`,
+`recoveries.yml`, and `report.md` go in the transcript output's parent directory
+unless `--report-dir` is explicitly supplied. For stdout transcript output, they
+go in the effective `reporting.stdout_dir` (default `.`), including a
+`--report-dir` override. A config-file or overlay value for
+`reporting.stdout_dir` alone does not redirect file-output reports. An active
+selected report directory must be nonblank. `--reporting=false` suppresses all
+three reports and leaves their destination inactive, so it is not probed merely
+because `--report-dir` was supplied. It does not suppress the stderr summary or
+fatal errors. Stdout contains only transcript JSON; file output leaves it empty.
 
-If a failure happens after diagnostics initialization, the run writes failure details and returns nonzero.
+Existing report directories and parents for regular transcript files must be
+writable. Audita prevents report writes from overwriting transcript, glossary,
+loaded application configuration, host YAML discovered under `profiles_dir`,
+or host message files referenced by effective PromptKit `content_file` fields,
+and rejects conflicting output destinations. Source paths come from the
+runtime's captured configuration; unrelated files in the selected directory
+remain eligible output destinations. The final transcript may intentionally
+replace its own input after successful processing; other input/configuration/
+profile sources remain protected.
+Preparation never truncates an existing transcript. Device and pipe destinations
+(such as `/dev/null` and named pipes) receive ordinary writes at publication time;
+they are not opened during preflight or replaced with regular files. A pipe write
+can wait for its reader, and stream write errors are fatal. With reporting enabled,
+reports still use the output path's parent unless an explicit `--report-dir`
+selects another directory; disable reporting when that placement is unsuitable
+for a stream destination.
 
-## Output Files
-
-Transcript output:
-- when `--output <path>` is set, corrected transcript JSON is written to that file;
-- when `--output` is omitted, corrected transcript JSON is written to stdout.
-
-Report output:
-- when `--report-json <path>` is set, Audita writes a process report JSON file;
-- the run directory also writes its own `report.json` artifact.
-
-On success with `--output`, stdout is expected to be empty.
+With reporting enabled, all three reports are initialized as `in_progress` before
+input processing. Output is encoded fully before publication. Each regular output
+file is replaced through a temporary file on its destination filesystem:
+transcript first, then `errors.yml`,
+`recoveries.yml`, and `report.md`. This is per-file replacement, not a
+multi-file transaction. New files honor the process umask; replacing an existing
+file preserves its permission bits. A late report error may leave the transcript
+published; the process exits nonzero and attempts failed-status reports. On fatal processing
+or cancellation, no completed transcript is published, but partial reports are
+finalized where possible. An uncatchable termination can leave `in_progress`.
 
 ## Diagnostics Directory
 
-By default, runs use `work_dir` from effective config (default `/tmp/audita`).
-Each run directory is created under the work dir using a generated ID like `run-<unix-nanos>`.
+`--debug` or `diagnostics.debug` enables detailed evidence independently of
+reporting. One directory named `run-<id>` is created under
+`diagnostics.work_dir` (default `/tmp/audita`), which `--work-dir` can override,
+and retained on success or failure. Selecting `--work-dir` alone does not enable
+capture. Without debug, no directory or payload files are created. The parent
+is created when needed only for debug. Failure to
+write optional debug evidence prints a redacted stderr diagnostic but does not
+change correction decisions or the exit status.
 
-Top-level diagnostics artifacts:
-- `source-transcript.json`
-- `source-transcript-parsed.json`
-- `normalized-transcript.json`
-- `normalization-summary.json`
-- `chunking-summary.json`
-- `utilization-diagnostics.json`
-- `correction-ledger.json`
-- `invocation.json`
-- `effective-config.json` (redacted)
-- `report.json`
-- `error.log` (failure runs)
+Debug evidence includes invocation and effective settings, configuration
+origins, selected profiles, redacted source and normalized snapshots,
+normalization and initial chunk summaries, all captured proposed candidates
+and validator decisions in `correction-ledger.json`, execution/utilization
+records, and model interaction files. Individual artifact writes can fail; a
+directory's existence does not prove every file was written. These files can
+contain transcript text and prompt/response payloads. Configured backend
+credentials are redacted, but the transcript itself is not anonymized. Protect
+and retain the directory according to the sensitivity of the input.
 
-Report diagnostics metadata includes resolved paths to these artifacts.
+## Failure Inspection and Recovery
 
-## Correction Ledger and Utilization Diagnostics
+Exit `0` means processing and every enabled required output completed. Exit
+`1` means cancellation, fatal processing, or required-output failure. Exit `2`
+identifies usage or configuration/destination selection errors. Recoverable
+model-operation failures appear in `errors.yml` as one record per affected
+work unit; they do not automatically make the run fail. `recoveries.yml`
+records successful operations that needed retry, repair, or proposal filtering.
+`report.md` shows every initial chunk and configured module instance, including
+interrupted and unattempted work. Ordinary reports omit transcript excerpts and
+full decision ledgers; enable debug when those are needed.
 
-`correction-ledger.json` records correction dispositions:
-- `applied`
-- `skipped`
-- `rejected`
-- `failed`
-
-`utilization-diagnostics.json` records effective concurrency and execution timing summaries for run/module/validator activity.
-
-## Retention Behavior
-
-Retention is controlled by `work_dir_retention` (`auto|always|never`).
-
-Current behavior:
-- failed runs are always retained;
-- `always`: successful runs are retained;
-- `auto`: successful runs are retained only when skipped/rejected corrections occurred; clean successful runs are removed;
-- `never`: successful runs are currently retained (same net retention outcome as `always` in current implementation).
-
-Even when a successful run directory is removed under `auto`, an explicit `--report-json` file is still preserved at its target path.
-
-## Failure Inspection
-
-For failed runs:
-1. read stderr for the top-level failure and diagnostics path;
-2. open `error.log` in the reported run directory;
-3. inspect run `report.json` (`status`, `error_phase`, `error_message`);
-4. inspect related artifacts referenced by report diagnostics metadata.
-
-Typical `error_phase` values include:
-- `transcript_read`
-- `glossary_read`
-- `transcript_schema`
-- `glossary_schema`
-- `chunking`
-- `runner_setup`
-- `runner_execution`
-- `output_schema`
-- `serialization`
-- `output_write`
-- `stdout_write`
-
-## Recovery Guidance
-
-Safe recovery pattern:
-1. correct the immediate input/config/output-path problem;
-2. rerun with `--work-dir-retention always` during debugging;
-3. once stable, restore your normal retention mode.
-
-Not implemented:
-- resume/checkpoint APIs
-- remote diagnostics/report storage
+Read stderr and report status first. If a required output failed after a
+transcript was published, do not treat the file alone as proof of a completed
+run. Fix the input, service, or destination problem and rerun. Audita has no
+resume/checkpoint API.

+
+   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR USE, REPRODUCTION, AND DISTRIBUTION
+
+   1. Definitions.

+      other entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common
+      control with that entity. For the purposes of this definition,

+
+      "Source" form shall mean the preferred form for making modifications,
+      including but not limited to software source code, documentation
+      source, and configuration files.
+
+      "Object" form shall mean any form resulting from mechanical
+      transformation or translation of a Source form, including but
+      not limited to compiled object code, generated documentation,
+      and conversions to other media types.
+
+      "Work" shall mean the work of authorship, whether in Source or
+      Object form, made available under the License, as indicated by a
+      copyright notice that is included in or attached to the work
+      (an example is provided in the Appendix below).
+
+      "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
+      form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
+      editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
+      represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
+      of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
+      separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
+      the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
+
+      "Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including
+      the original version of the Work and any modifications or additions
+      to that Work or Derivative Works thereof, that is intentionally
+      submitted to Licensor for inclusion in the Work by the copyright owner
+      or by an individual or Legal Entity authorized to submit on behalf of
+      the copyright owner. For the purposes of this definition, "submitted"
+      means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent
+      to the Licensor or its representatives, including but not limited to
+      communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems,
+      and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, the
+      Licensor for the purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but
+      excluding communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise
+      designated in writing by the copyright owner as "Not a Contribution."
+
+      "Contributor" shall mean Licensor and any individual or Legal Entity
+      on behalf of whom a Contribution has been received by Licensor and
+      subsequently incorporated within the Work.
+
+   2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
+      publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
+      Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
+
+   3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
+      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
+      worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
+      (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
+      use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
+      where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
+      by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
+      Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
+      with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
+      institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
+      cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
+      or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
+      or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
+      granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
+      as of the date such litigation is filed.
+
+   4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
+      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
+      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
+      meet the following conditions:
+
+      (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
+          Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
+
+      (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
+          stating that You changed the files; and
+
+      (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
+          that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
+          attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
+          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
+          the Derivative Works; and
+
+      (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
+          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
+          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
+          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
+          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
+          of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
+          as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
+          documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
+          within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
+          wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
+          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
+          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
+          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
+          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
+          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
+          as modifying the License.
+
+      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
+      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
+      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
+      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
+      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
+      the conditions stated in this License.
+
+   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
+      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
+      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
+      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
+      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
+      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
+      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
+
+   6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
+      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
+      except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
+      origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
+
+   7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
+      agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
+      Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
+      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
+      implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
+      of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
+      PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
+      appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
+      risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
+
+   8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
+      whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
+      unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
+      negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
+      liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
+      incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
+      result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
+      Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
+      work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
+      other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
+      has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
+
+   9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
+      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
+      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
+      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
+      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
+      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
+      of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
+      defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
+      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
+      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.
+
+   END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+   APPENDIX: How to apply the Apache License to your work.
+
+      To apply the Apache License to your work, attach the following
+      boilerplate notice, with the fields enclosed by brackets "[]"
+      replaced with your own identifying information. (Don't include
+      the brackets!)  The text should be enclosed in the appropriate
+      comment syntax for the file format. We also recommend that a
+      file or class name and description of purpose be included on the
+      same "printed page" as the copyright notice for easier
+      identification within third-party archives.

+
+ Creative Commons Corporation (“Creative Commons”) is not a law firm and does not provide legal services or legal advice. Distribution of Creative Commons public licenses does not create a lawyer-client or other relationship. Creative Commons makes its licenses and related information available on an “as-is” basis. Creative Commons gives no warranties regarding its licenses, any material licensed under their terms and conditions, or any related information. Creative Commons disclaims all liability for damages resulting from their use to the fullest extent possible.
+
+Using Creative Commons Public Licenses
+
+Creative Commons public licenses provide a standard set of terms and conditions that creators and other rights holders may use to share original works of authorship and other material subject to copyright and certain other rights specified in the public license below. The following considerations are for informational purposes only, are not exhaustive, and do not form part of our licenses.
+
+Considerations for licensors: Our public licenses are intended for use by those authorized to give the public permission to use material in ways otherwise restricted by copyright and certain other rights. Our licenses are irrevocable. Licensors should read and understand the terms and conditions of the license they choose before applying it. Licensors should also secure all rights necessary before applying our licenses so that the public can reuse the material as expected. Licensors should clearly mark any material not subject to the license. This includes other CC-licensed material, or material used under an exception or limitation to copyright. More considerations for licensors.
+
+Considerations for the public: By using one of our public licenses, a licensor grants the public permission to use the licensed material under specified terms and conditions. If the licensor’s permission is not necessary for any reason–for example, because of any applicable exception or limitation to copyright–then that use is not regulated by the license. Our licenses grant only permissions under copyright and certain other rights that a licensor has authority to grant. Use of the licensed material may still be restricted for other reasons, including because others have copyright or other rights in the material. A licensor may make special requests, such as asking that all changes be marked or described.
+
+Although not required by our licenses, you are encouraged to respect those requests where reasonable. More considerations for the public.
+
+Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International Public License
+
+By exercising the Licensed Rights (defined below), You accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International Public License ("Public License"). To the extent this Public License may be interpreted as a contract, You are granted the Licensed Rights in consideration of Your acceptance of these terms and conditions, and the Licensor grants You such rights in consideration of benefits the Licensor receives from making the Licensed Material available under these terms and conditions.
+
+Section 1 – Definitions.
+
+     a.	Adapted Material means material subject to Copyright and Similar Rights that is derived from or based upon the Licensed Material and in which the Licensed Material is translated, altered, arranged, transformed, or otherwise modified in a manner requiring permission under the Copyright and Similar Rights held by the Licensor. For purposes of this Public License, where the Licensed Material is a musical work, performance, or sound recording, Adapted Material is always produced where the Licensed Material is synched in timed relation with a moving image.
+
+     b.	Adapter's License means the license You apply to Your Copyright and Similar Rights in Your contributions to Adapted Material in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Public License.
+
+     c.	BY-SA Compatible License means a license listed at creativecommons.org/compatiblelicenses, approved by Creative Commons as essentially the equivalent of this Public License.
+
+     d.	Copyright and Similar Rights means copyright and/or similar rights closely related to copyright including, without limitation, performance, broadcast, sound recording, and Sui Generis Database Rights, without regard to how the rights are labeled or categorized. For purposes of this Public License, the rights specified in Section 2(b)(1)-(2) are not Copyright and Similar Rights.
+
+     e.	Effective Technological Measures means those measures that, in the absence of proper authority, may not be circumvented under laws fulfilling obligations under Article 11 of the WIPO Copyright Treaty adopted on December 20, 1996, and/or similar international agreements.
+
+     f.	Exceptions and Limitations means fair use, fair dealing, and/or any other exception or limitation to Copyright and Similar Rights that applies to Your use of the Licensed Material.
+
+     g.	License Elements means the license attributes listed in the name of a Creative Commons Public License. The License Elements of this Public License are Attribution and ShareAlike.
+
+     h.	Licensed Material means the artistic or literary work, database, or other material to which the Licensor applied this Public License.
+
+     i.	Licensed Rights means the rights granted to You subject to the terms and conditions of this Public License, which are limited to all Copyright and Similar Rights that apply to Your use of the Licensed Material and that the Licensor has authority to license.
+
+     j.	Licensor means the individual(s) or entity(ies) granting rights under this Public License.
+
+     k.	Share means to provide material to the public by any means or process that requires permission under the Licensed Rights, such as reproduction, public display, public performance, distribution, dissemination, communication, or importation, and to make material available to the public including in ways that members of the public may access the material from a place and at a time individually chosen by them.
+
+     l.	Sui Generis Database Rights means rights other than copyright resulting from Directive 96/9/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 1996 on the legal protection of databases, as amended and/or succeeded, as well as other essentially equivalent rights anywhere in the world.
+
+     m.	You means the individual or entity exercising the Licensed Rights under this Public License. Your has a corresponding meaning.
+
+Section 2 – Scope.
+
+     a.	License grant.
+
+          1. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Public License, the Licensor hereby grants You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, irrevocable license to exercise the Licensed Rights in the Licensed Material to:
+
+               A. reproduce and Share the Licensed Material, in whole or in part; and
+
+               B. produce, reproduce, and Share Adapted Material.
+
+          2. Exceptions and Limitations. For the avoidance of doubt, where Exceptions and Limitations apply to Your use, this Public License does not apply, and You do not need to comply with its terms and conditions.
+
+          3. Term. The term of this Public License is specified in Section 6(a).
+
+          4. Media and formats; technical modifications allowed. The Licensor authorizes You to exercise the Licensed Rights in all media and formats whether now known or hereafter created, and to make technical modifications necessary to do so. The Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any right or authority to forbid You from making technical modifications necessary to exercise the Licensed Rights, including technical modifications necessary to circumvent Effective Technological Measures. For purposes of this Public License, simply making modifications authorized by this Section 2(a)(4) never produces Adapted Material.
+
+          5. Downstream recipients.
+
+               A. Offer from the Licensor – Licensed Material. Every recipient of the Licensed Material automatically receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the Licensed Rights under the terms and conditions of this Public License.
+
+               B. Additional offer from the Licensor – Adapted Material. Every recipient of Adapted Material from You automatically receives an offer from the Licensor to exercise the Licensed Rights in the Adapted Material under the conditions of the Adapter’s License You apply.
+
+               C. No downstream restrictions. You may not offer or impose any additional or different terms or conditions on, or apply any Effective Technological Measures to, the Licensed Material if doing so restricts exercise of the Licensed Rights by any recipient of the Licensed Material.
+
+          6. No endorsement. Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be construed as permission to assert or imply that You are, or that Your use of the Licensed Material is, connected with, or sponsored, endorsed, or granted official status by, the Licensor or others designated to receive attribution as provided in Section 3(a)(1)(A)(i).
+
+     b.	Other rights.
+
+          1. Moral rights, such as the right of integrity, are not licensed under this Public License, nor are publicity, privacy, and/or other similar personality rights; however, to the extent possible, the Licensor waives and/or agrees not to assert any such rights held by the Licensor to the limited extent necessary to allow You to exercise the Licensed Rights, but not otherwise.
+
+          2. Patent and trademark rights are not licensed under this Public License.
+
+          3. To the extent possible, the Licensor waives any right to collect royalties from You for the exercise of the Licensed Rights, whether directly or through a collecting society under any voluntary or waivable statutory or compulsory licensing scheme. In all other cases the Licensor expressly reserves any right to collect such royalties.
+
+Section 3 – License Conditions.
+
+Your exercise of the Licensed Rights is expressly made subject to the following conditions.
+
+     a.	Attribution.
+
+          1. If You Share the Licensed Material (including in modified form), You must:
+
+               A. retain the following if it is supplied by the Licensor with the Licensed Material:
+
+                    i.	identification of the creator(s) of the Licensed Material and any others designated to receive attribution, in any reasonable manner requested by the Licensor (including by pseudonym if designated);
+
+                    ii.	a copyright notice;
+
+                    iii. a notice that refers to this Public License;
+

+
+               C. indicate the Licensed Material is licensed under this Public License, and include the text of, or the URI or hyperlink to, this Public License.
+
+          2. You may satisfy the conditions in Section 3(a)(1) in any reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context in which You Share the Licensed Material. For example, it may be reasonable to satisfy the conditions by providing a URI or hyperlink to a resource that includes the required information.
+
+          3. If requested by the Licensor, You must remove any of the information required by Section 3(a)(1)(A) to the extent reasonably practicable.
+
+     b.	ShareAlike.In addition to the conditions in Section 3(a), if You Share Adapted Material You produce, the following conditions also apply.
+
+          1. The Adapter’s License You apply must be a Creative Commons license with the same License Elements, this version or later, or a BY-SA Compatible License.
+
+          2. You must include the text of, or the URI or hyperlink to, the Adapter's License You apply. You may satisfy this condition in any reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context in which You Share Adapted Material.
+
+          3. You may not offer or impose any additional or different terms or conditions on, or apply any Effective Technological Measures to, Adapted Material that restrict exercise of the rights granted under the Adapter's License You apply.
+
+Section 4 – Sui Generis Database Rights.
+
+Where the Licensed Rights include Sui Generis Database Rights that apply to Your use of the Licensed Material:
+
+     a.	for the avoidance of doubt, Section 2(a)(1) grants You the right to extract, reuse, reproduce, and Share all or a substantial portion of the contents of the database;
+
+     b.	if You include all or a substantial portion of the database contents in a database in which You have Sui Generis Database Rights, then the database in which You have Sui Generis Database Rights (but not its individual contents) is Adapted Material, including for purposes of Section 3(b); and
+
+     c.	You must comply with the conditions in Section 3(a) if You Share all or a substantial portion of the contents of the database.
+For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 4 supplements and does not replace Your obligations under this Public License where the Licensed Rights include other Copyright and Similar Rights.
+
+Section 5 – Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability.
+
+     a.	Unless otherwise separately undertaken by the Licensor, to the extent possible, the Licensor offers the Licensed Material as-is and as-available, and makes no representations or warranties of any kind concerning the Licensed Material, whether express, implied, statutory, or other. This includes, without limitation, warranties of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, absence of latent or other defects, accuracy, or the presence or absence of errors, whether or not known or discoverable. Where disclaimers of warranties are not allowed in full or in part, this disclaimer may not apply to You.
+
+     b.	To the extent possible, in no event will the Licensor be liable to You on any legal theory (including, without limitation, negligence) or otherwise for any direct, special, indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive, exemplary, or other losses, costs, expenses, or damages arising out of this Public License or use of the Licensed Material, even if the Licensor has been advised of the possibility of such losses, costs, expenses, or damages. Where a limitation of liability is not allowed in full or in part, this limitation may not apply to You.
+
+     c.	The disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability provided above shall be interpreted in a manner that, to the extent possible, most closely approximates an absolute disclaimer and waiver of all liability.
+
+Section 6 – Term and Termination.
+
+     a.	This Public License applies for the term of the Copyright and Similar Rights licensed here. However, if You fail to comply with this Public License, then Your rights under this Public License terminate automatically.
+
+     b.	Where Your right to use the Licensed Material has terminated under Section 6(a), it reinstates:
+
+          1. automatically as of the date the violation is cured, provided it is cured within 30 days of Your discovery of the violation; or
+
+          2. upon express reinstatement by the Licensor.
+
+     c.	For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6(b) does not affect any right the Licensor may have to seek remedies for Your violations of this Public License.
+
+     d.	For the avoidance of doubt, the Licensor may also offer the Licensed Material under separate terms or conditions or stop distributing the Licensed Material at any time; however, doing so will not terminate this Public License.
+
+     e.	Sections 1, 5, 6, 7, and 8 survive termination of this Public License.
+
+Section 7 – Other Terms and Conditions.
+
+     a.	The Licensor shall not be bound by any additional or different terms or conditions communicated by You unless expressly agreed.
+
+     b.	Any arrangements, understandings, or agreements regarding the Licensed Material not stated herein are separate from and independent of the terms and conditions of this Public License.
+
+Section 8 – Interpretation.
+
+     a.	For the avoidance of doubt, this Public License does not, and shall not be interpreted to, reduce, limit, restrict, or impose conditions on any use of the Licensed Material that could lawfully be made without permission under this Public License.
+
+     b.	To the extent possible, if any provision of this Public License is deemed unenforceable, it shall be automatically reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable. If the provision cannot be reformed, it shall be severed from this Public License without affecting the enforceability of the remaining terms and conditions.
+
+     c.	No term or condition of this Public License will be waived and no failure to comply consented to unless expressly agreed to by the Licensor.
+
+     d.	Nothing in this Public License constitutes or may be interpreted as a limitation upon, or waiver of, any privileges and immunities that apply to the Licensor or You, including from the legal processes of any jurisdiction or authority.

+                    GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+                       Version 3, 29 June 2007
+
+ Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <https://fsf.org/>
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+                            Preamble
+
+  The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
+software and other kinds of works.
+
+  The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
+to take away your freedom to share and change the works.  By contrast,
+the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom to
+share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
+software for all its users.  We, the Free Software Foundation, use the
+GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies also to
+any other work released this way by its authors.  You can apply it to
+your programs, too.
+
+  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
+want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
+free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
+
+  To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
+these rights or asking you to surrender the rights.  Therefore, you have
+certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the software, or if
+you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom of others.
+
+  For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
+freedoms that you received.  You must make sure that they, too, receive
+or can get the source code.  And you must show them these terms so they
+know their rights.
+
+  Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
+(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
+giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
+
+  For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
+that there is no warranty for this free software.  For both users' and
+authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
+changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
+authors of previous versions.
+
+  Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
+modified versions of the software inside them, although the manufacturer
+can do so.  This is fundamentally incompatible with the aim of
+protecting users' freedom to change the software.  The systematic
+pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for individuals to
+use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable.  Therefore, we
+have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the practice for those
+products.  If such problems arise substantially in other domains, we
+stand ready to extend this provision to those domains in future versions
+of the GPL, as needed to protect the freedom of users.
+
+  Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
+States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
+software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish to
+avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program could
+make it effectively proprietary.  To prevent this, the GPL assures that
+patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
+
+  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.
+
+                       TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+  0. Definitions.
+
+  "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
+
+  "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
+works, such as semiconductor masks.
+
+  "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
+License.  Each licensee is addressed as "you".  "Licensees" and
+"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
+
+  To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
+in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
+exact copy.  The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
+earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
+
+  A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
+on the Program.
+
+  To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
+permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
+infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
+computer or modifying a private copy.  Propagation includes copying,
+distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
+public, and in some countries other activities as well.
+
+  To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
+parties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user through
+a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
+
+  An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
+to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
+feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
+tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
+extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
+work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If
+the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
+menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
+
+  1. Source Code.
+
+  The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
+for making modifications to it.  "Object code" means any non-source
+form of a work.
+
+  A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
+standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
+interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
+is widely used among developers working in that language.
+
+  The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
+than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
+packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
+Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
+Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
+implementation is available to the public in source code form.  A
+"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
+(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
+(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
+produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
+
+  The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
+the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
+work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
+control those activities.  However, it does not include the work's
+System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
+programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
+which are not part of the work.  For example, Corresponding Source
+includes interface definition files associated with source files for
+the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
+linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
+such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
+subprograms and other parts of the work.
+
+  The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
+can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
+Source.
+
+  The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
+same work.
+
+  2. Basic Permissions.
+
+  All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
+copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
+conditions are met.  This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
+permission to run the unmodified Program.  The output from running a
+covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
+content, constitutes a covered work.  This License acknowledges your
+rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
+
+  You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
+convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
+in force.  You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
+of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
+with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
+the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
+not control copyright.  Those thus making or running the covered works
+for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
+and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
+your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
+
+  Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
+the conditions stated below.  Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
+makes it unnecessary.
+
+  3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
+
+  No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
+measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
+11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
+similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
+measures.
+
+  When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
+circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
+is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
+the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
+modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
+users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
+technological measures.
+
+  4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
+
+  You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
+receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
+appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
+keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
+non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
+keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
+recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
+
+  You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
+and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
+
+  5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
+
+  You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
+produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
+terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+    a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
+    it, and giving a relevant date.
+
+    b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
+    released under this License and any conditions added under section
+    7.  This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
+    "keep intact all notices".
+
+    c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
+    License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy.  This
+    License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
+    additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
+    regardless of how they are packaged.  This License gives no
+    permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
+    invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
+
+    d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
+    Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
+    interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
+    work need not make them do so.
+
+  A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
+works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
+and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
+in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
+"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
+used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
+beyond what the individual works permit.  Inclusion of a covered work
+in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
+parts of the aggregate.
+
+  6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
+
+  You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
+of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
+machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
+in one of these ways:
+
+    a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
+    Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
+    customarily used for software interchange.
+
+    b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
+    written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
+    long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
+    model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
+    copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
+    product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
+    medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
+    more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
+    conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
+    Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
+
+    c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
+    written offer to provide the Corresponding Source.  This
+    alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
+    only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
+    with subsection 6b.
+
+    d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
+    place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
+    Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
+    further charge.  You need not require recipients to copy the
+    Corresponding Source along with the object code.  If the place to
+    copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
+    may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
+    that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
+    clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
+    Corresponding Source.  Regardless of what server hosts the
+    Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
+    available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
+
+    e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
+    you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
+    Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
+    charge under subsection 6d.
+
+  A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
+from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
+included in conveying the object code work.
+
+  A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
+tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
+or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
+into a dwelling.  In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
+doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage.  For a particular
+product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
+typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
+of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
+actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.  A product
+is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
+commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
+the only significant mode of use of the product.
+
+  "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
+procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
+and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
+a modified version of its Corresponding Source.  The information must
+suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
+code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
+modification has been made.
+
+  If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
+specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
+part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
+User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
+fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
+Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
+by the Installation Information.  But this requirement does not apply
+if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
+modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
+been installed in ROM).
+
+  The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
+requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
+for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
+the User Product in which it has been modified or installed.  Access to a
+network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
+adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
+protocols for communication across the network.
+
+  Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
+in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
+documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
+source code form), and must require no special password or key for
+unpacking, reading or copying.
+
+  7. Additional Terms.
+
+  "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
+License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
+Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
+be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
+that they are valid under applicable law.  If additional permissions
+apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
+under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
+this License without regard to the additional permissions.
+
+  When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
+remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
+it.  (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
+removal in certain cases when you modify the work.)  You may place
+additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
+for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
+
+  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
+add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
+that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
+
+    a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
+    terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
+
+    b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
+    author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
+    Notices displayed by works containing it; or
+
+    c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
+    requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
+    reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
+
+    d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
+    authors of the material; or
+
+    e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
+    trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
+
+    f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
+    material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
+    it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
+    any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
+    those licensors and authors.
+
+  All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
+restrictions" within the meaning of section 10.  If the Program as you
+received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
+governed by this License along with a term that is a further
+restriction, you may remove that term.  If a license document contains
+a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
+License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
+of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
+not survive such relicensing or conveying.
+
+  If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
+must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
+additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
+where to find the applicable terms.
+
+  Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
+form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
+the above requirements apply either way.
+
+  8. Termination.
+
+  You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
+provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
+modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
+this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
+paragraph of section 11).
+
+  However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
+license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
+provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
+finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
+holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
+prior to 60 days after the cessation.
+
+  Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
+reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
+violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
+received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
+copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
+your receipt of the notice.
+
+  Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
+licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
+this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
+reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
+material under section 10.
+
+  9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
+
+  You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
+run a copy of the Program.  Ancillary propagation of a covered work
+occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
+to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance.  However,
+nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
+modify any covered work.  These actions infringe copyright if you do
+not accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
+covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
+
+  10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
+
+  Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
+receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
+propagate that work, subject to this License.  You are not responsible
+for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
+
+  An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
+organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
+organization, or merging organizations.  If propagation of a covered
+work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
+transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
+licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
+give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
+Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
+the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
+
+  You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
+rights granted or affirmed under this License.  For example, you may
+not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
+rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
+(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
+any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
+sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
+
+  11. Patents.
+
+  A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
+License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based.  The
+work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
+
+  A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
+owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
+hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
+by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
+but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
+consequence of further modification of the contributor version.  For
+purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
+patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
+this License.
+
+  Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
+patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
+make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
+propagate the contents of its contributor version.
+
+  In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
+agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
+(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
+sue for patent infringement).  To "grant" such a patent license to a
+party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
+patent against the party.
+
+  If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
+and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
+to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
+publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
+then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
+available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
+patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
+consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
+license to downstream recipients.  "Knowingly relying" means you have
+actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
+covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
+in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
+country that you have reason to believe are valid.
+
+  If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
+arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
+covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
+receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
+or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
+you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
+work and works based on it.
+
+  A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
+the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
+conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
+specifically granted under this License.  You may not convey a covered
+work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
+in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
+to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
+the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
+parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
+patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
+conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
+for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
+contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
+or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
+
+  Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
+any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
+otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
+
+  12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
+
+  If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot convey a
+covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
+not convey it at all.  For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
+to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
+the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
+License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
+
+  13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
+
+  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
+permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
+under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
+combined work, and to convey the resulting work.  The terms of this
+License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
+but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
+section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
+combination as such.
+
+  14. Revised Versions of this License.
+
+  The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
+the GNU General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will
+be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+address new problems or concerns.
+
+  Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the
+Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General
+Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
+option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
+version or of any later version published by the Free Software
+Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of the
+GNU General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
+by the Free Software Foundation.
+
+  If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
+versions of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's
+public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
+to choose that version for the Program.
+
+  Later license versions may give you additional or different
+permissions.  However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
+author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
+later version.
+
+  15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
+
+  THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
+APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
+HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
+OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
+THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
+PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
+IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
+ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+
+  16. Limitation of Liability.
+
+  IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
+THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
+GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
+USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
+DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
+PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
+EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
+SUCH DAMAGES.
+
+  17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
+
+  If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
+above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
+reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
+an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
+Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
+copy of the Program in return for a fee.
+
+                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+
+  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+
+  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+
+    This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
+    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
+    the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
+    (at your option) any later version.
+
+    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
+    GNU General Public License for more details.
+
+    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
+    along with this program.  If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+
+  If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
+notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
+
+    <program>  Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+    This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
+    This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
+    under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
+
+The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
+parts of the General Public License.  Of course, your program's commands
+might be different; for a GUI interface, you would use an "about box".
+
+  You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
+if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
+For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU GPL, see
+<https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+
+  The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your program
+into proprietary programs.  If your program is a subroutine library, you
+may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with
+the library.  If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General
+Public License instead of this License.  But first, please read
+<https://www.gnu.org/licenses/why-not-lgpl.html>.

+                   GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
+                       Version 3, 29 June 2007
+
+ Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <https://fsf.org/>
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+
+  This version of the GNU Lesser General Public License incorporates
+the terms and conditions of version 3 of the GNU General Public
+License, supplemented by the additional permissions listed below.
+
+  0. Additional Definitions.
+
+  As used herein, "this License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Lesser
+General Public License, and the "GNU GPL" refers to version 3 of the GNU
+General Public License.
+
+  "The Library" refers to a covered work governed by this License,
+other than an Application or a Combined Work as defined below.
+
+  An "Application" is any work that makes use of an interface provided
+by the Library, but which is not otherwise based on the Library.
+Defining a subclass of a class defined by the Library is deemed a mode
+of using an interface provided by the Library.
+
+  A "Combined Work" is a work produced by combining or linking an
+Application with the Library.  The particular version of the Library
+with which the Combined Work was made is also called the "Linked
+Version".
+
+  The "Minimal Corresponding Source" for a Combined Work means the
+Corresponding Source for the Combined Work, excluding any source code
+for portions of the Combined Work that, considered in isolation, are
+based on the Application, and not on the Linked Version.
+
+  The "Corresponding Application Code" for a Combined Work means the
+object code and/or source code for the Application, including any data
+and utility programs needed for reproducing the Combined Work from the
+Application, but excluding the System Libraries of the Combined Work.
+
+  1. Exception to Section 3 of the GNU GPL.
+
+  You may convey a covered work under sections 3 and 4 of this License
+without being bound by section 3 of the GNU GPL.
+
+  2. Conveying Modified Versions.
+
+  If you modify a copy of the Library, and, in your modifications, a
+facility refers to a function or data to be supplied by an Application
+that uses the facility (other than as an argument passed when the
+facility is invoked), then you may convey a copy of the modified
+version:
+
+   a) under this License, provided that you make a good faith effort to
+   ensure that, in the event an Application does not supply the
+   function or data, the facility still operates, and performs
+   whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful, or
+
+   b) under the GNU GPL, with none of the additional permissions of
+   this License applicable to that copy.
+
+  3. Object Code Incorporating Material from Library Header Files.
+
+  The object code form of an Application may incorporate material from
+a header file that is part of the Library.  You may convey such object
+code under terms of your choice, provided that, if the incorporated
+material is not limited to numerical parameters, data structure
+layouts and accessors, or small macros, inline functions and templates
+(ten or fewer lines in length), you do both of the following:
+
+   a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the object code that the
+   Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
+   covered by this License.
+
+   b) Accompany the object code with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
+   document.
+
+  4. Combined Works.
+
+  You may convey a Combined Work under terms of your choice that,
+taken together, effectively do not restrict modification of the
+portions of the Library contained in the Combined Work and reverse
+engineering for debugging such modifications, if you also do each of
+the following:
+
+   a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the Combined Work that
+   the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
+   covered by this License.
+
+   b) Accompany the Combined Work with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
+   document.
+
+   c) For a Combined Work that displays copyright notices during
+   execution, include the copyright notice for the Library among
+   these notices, as well as a reference directing the user to the
+   copies of the GNU GPL and this license document.
+
+   d) Do one of the following:
+
+       0) Convey the Minimal Corresponding Source under the terms of this
+       License, and the Corresponding Application Code in a form
+       suitable for, and under terms that permit, the user to
+       recombine or relink the Application with a modified version of
+       the Linked Version to produce a modified Combined Work, in the
+       manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL for conveying
+       Corresponding Source.
+
+       1) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
+       Library.  A suitable mechanism is one that (a) uses at run time
+       a copy of the Library already present on the user's computer
+       system, and (b) will operate properly with a modified version
+       of the Library that is interface-compatible with the Linked
+       Version.
+
+   e) Provide Installation Information, but only if you would otherwise
+   be required to provide such information under section 6 of the
+   GNU GPL, and only to the extent that such information is
+   necessary to install and execute a modified version of the
+   Combined Work produced by recombining or relinking the
+   Application with a modified version of the Linked Version. (If
+   you use option 4d0, the Installation Information must accompany
+   the Minimal Corresponding Source and Corresponding Application
+   Code. If you use option 4d1, you must provide the Installation
+   Information in the manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL
+   for conveying Corresponding Source.)
+
+  5. Combined Libraries.
+
+  You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
+Library side by side in a single library together with other library
+facilities that are not Applications and are not covered by this
+License, and convey such a combined library under terms of your
+choice, if you do both of the following:
+
+   a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based
+   on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities,
+   conveyed under the terms of this License.
+
+   b) Give prominent notice with the combined library that part of it
+   is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find the
+   accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
+
+  6. Revised Versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License.
+
+  The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
+of the GNU Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such new
+versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
+differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
+
+  Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
+Library as you received it specifies that a certain numbered version
+of the GNU Lesser General Public License "or any later version"
+applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and
+conditions either of that published version or of any later version
+published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library as you
+received it does not specify a version number of the GNU Lesser
+General Public License, you may choose any version of the GNU Lesser
+General Public License ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
+
+  If the Library as you received it specifies that a proxy can decide
+whether future versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License shall
+apply, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of any version is
+permanent authorization for you to choose that version for the
+Library.

+# Agent Policy
+
+**Base Policy Version:** 1.3
+
+**Last Updated**: 2026-09-28
+**Upstream Source:** [Standard Repository Policies agents](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/policy/src/commit/d84a38ebab26f048cafbe59a2246700c35d29843/docs/policy/agents.md)
+
+## Purpose
+
+Agents must read and follow these rules.
+
+## Implementation Discipline
+
+**KEY PRINCIPLES:** Write the simplest idiomatic code that satisfies the user's
+request. Do not implicitly strengthen requirements, restrictions, or guarantees
+beyond what the user actually requested.
+
+**Keep implementation machinery proportionate.** Use straightforward,
+idiomatic code and introduce only the machinery needed to support the requested
+behavior and flexibility. Optimize for conceptual simplicity and
+maintainability, not for the fewest lines, fewest options, or narrowest product
+surface.
+
+**Do not invent restrictions.** Do not reject, prohibit, constrain, cap,
+harden, or otherwise narrow behavior unless required by the user, an explicit
+repository contract, or an unavoidable correctness constraint. Preserve
+operator and caller choice where policy has not been established. If an
+additional restriction appears advisable, present it as a decision rather than
+silently implementing it.
+
+**Do not invent guarantees.** Do not strengthen public contracts, guarantees,
+or invariants beyond those expressly requested by the user.
+
+**Use the standard library.** For example: in almost every case, the best
+approach to copying files is to use the standard library. Writing custom code to
+implement power-loss protection at the application level, or to guard against
+bad actors with privileged and concurrent access to the host's filesystem,
+is wasteful, unnecessary, and not idiomatic. Stick to the simple, standard, and
+idiomatic approach unless another path is expressly requested by the user.
+
+**An implementation detail is not repository policy.** Tests and documentation
+must not elevate incidental behavior into a durable guarantee or restriction
+unless that behavior was expressly selected as part of the contract.
+
+## Codebase Discovery
+
+This project uses codebase-memory-mcp to maintain a knowledge graph of the
+codebase. Always prefer its graph tools over grep, glob, or file search for code discovery.
+If the project is not indexed, run `index_repository` first.
+
+Use this order:
+
+1. `search_graph` to find functions, classes, routes, and variables by pattern.
+2. `trace_path` to trace callers and callees.
+3. `get_code_snippet` to read a specific function or class.
+4. `query_graph` for complex graph queries.
+5. `get_architecture` for the high-level project summary.
+
+Fall back to grep or glob for string literals, error messages, configuration
+values, non-code files, or when the graph tools return insufficient results.
+
+Examples:
+
+- Find a handler: `search_graph(name_pattern=".*OrderHandler.*")`.
+- Find callers: `trace_path(function_name="OrderHandler", direction="inbound")`.
+- Read source: `get_code_snippet(qualified_name="pkg/orders.OrderHandler")`.
+
+## Git Commit Policy
+
+By default, commit each completed, nonempty unit of work using a
+concise, plain-English message describing what changed. This policy is standing
+authorization to create those local commits; a separate user request is not
+required. An explicit user instruction to leave work uncommitted takes precedence.
+
+A unit of work is a focused, reviewable outcome, including its relevant tests and
+documentation.
+Complete the appropriate validation before committing. If work is incomplete or
+validation is blocked, report that state accurately.
+
+Before committing:
+
+1. Run `git status --short` and review the relevant diff, including any staged
+   changes. Identify changes that predate the current unit of work.
+2. Exclude secrets, local environment files, generated junk, and unrelated changes.
+3. Stage only the files or hunks belonging to the completed unit. Use `git add .`
+   only when every included change belongs to that unit. Preserve unrelated
+   staged and unstaged work.
+4. Review `git diff --staged` and run appropriate checks for the change. Reuse
+   successful checks for unchanged content.
+5. Review `git log --oneline -n 10` and use
+   `git commit -m "<concise plain-English commit message>"`.
+6. Report the commit identifier and any remaining uncommitted work.
+
+If the unit cannot be safely separated from pre-existing work, leave it uncommitted
+and explain the overlap rather than silently including that work. If a commit
+fails, preserve the changes and report the failure; do not bypass hooks.
+
+Default commit authorization does not authorize pushing, publishing, amending,
+resetting, reverting, or rewriting history. Those actions require a separate user
+instruction. Do not use `git commit -a` or `git commit --no-verify` to bypass the
+staging and validation discipline above.

 # Architecture Policy
 
-## Purpose
-
-This document defines Audita's development architecture and invariants for maintainers and LLM coding agents. It describes how the project is intended to be changed safely, based on behavior implemented in this repository today.
-
-User-facing behavior belongs in the README and focused runtime docs. Future or proposed work belongs only under `docs/roadmap/`.
-
-## Project Shape
-
-Audita is a single-process Go CLI for transcript polishing. The executable entrypoint is `cmd/audita`; command handling lives in `internal/cli`.
-
-The implemented `audita process` flow is:
-
-1. load effective config;
-2. read and validate transcript JSON and glossary YAML;
-3. normalize transcript segments;
-4. chunk the working transcript into sections;
-5. resolve configured module instances;
-6. run correction modules and validator chains;
-7. apply approved proposals deterministically;
-8. write transcript output, reports, and diagnostics artifacts.
-
-The current built-in modules are `glossary`, `homophones`, `spoken_word`, and `grammar`. The default configured module sequence repeats `glossary`.
-
-For external behavior and compatibility details, prefer links to existing behavior docs:
-
-- [CLI reference](../cli.md)
-- [Configuration](../config.md)
-- [Operations](../operations.md)
-- [Troubleshooting](../troubleshooting.md)
-- [Integration docs](../integrations/subprocess.md)
-- [Internal docs](../internal/overview.md)
-
-## Core Design Principles
-
-- **Hexagonal architecture:** keep domain behavior behind narrow internal contracts. CLI, filesystem, config loading, diagnostics writing, and LLM transport are adapters around the core processing flow.
-- **Composable modules and validators:** correction stages and validators should remain small, explicit, and independently testable.
-- **Deterministic orchestration around LLM calls:** LLM responses are nondeterministic inputs. Proposal indexing, validator ordering, proposal application, reports, and output serialization must remain deterministic.
-- **Bounded and observable concurrency:** use the implemented schedulers and configured concurrency limits for LLM call sites. Preserve utilization diagnostics when changing scheduling or orchestration.
-- **Conservative correction behavior:** validate proposed corrections before application; apply accepted proposals through deterministic apply-time safety checks.
-- **Standard-library-first:** prefer the Go standard library. Narrow third-party dependencies are acceptable when they materially improve maintainability, such as `gopkg.in/yaml.v3` for YAML parsing.
-- **Current-behavior documentation:** non-roadmap docs must describe implemented behavior only.
-
-## Architectural Boundaries
-
-`internal/core` owns domain data handling and stable runtime contracts that do not require CLI or provider transport knowledge:
-
-- config defaults, loading, validation, redaction, and catalogs;
-- transcript and glossary schemas;
-- normalization and chunking;
-- output-schema encoding;
-- diagnostics artifact naming and run-directory helpers;
-- public process report shapes.
-
-`internal/framework` owns orchestration contracts and reusable runtime mechanics:
-
-- module and validator interfaces;
-- proposal generation, proposal application, and prompt context;
-- runner orchestration;
-- LLM scheduler, OpenAI-compatible adapter, redaction helpers, and diagnostics writers;
-- structured response schema registry;
-- process report and correction-ledger assembly.
-
-`internal/modules/*` owns module-specific correction stages. `internal/validators/*` owns built-in validator implementations, registry, chains, and execution-class metadata. `internal/prompts` owns embedded prompt assets and prompt metadata.
-
-`internal/cli` owns command parsing, exit codes, stdout/stderr behavior, config command behavior, filesystem input/output wiring, and top-level process orchestration. CLI concerns should not move into modules, validators, or schema logic.
-
-Tests should stay close to the behavior they protect. Shared test helpers are acceptable when they remove clear duplication without hiding module-specific behavior.
-
-## Modules and Validators
-
-Modules implement `contracts.TranscriptModule`. A module must provide:
-
-- a stable key;
-- a replacement policy;
-- a validator chain;
-- proposal generation from explicit request inputs.
-
-Module packages should stay separate. Do not collapse module-specific prompts, scope, or validation choices into a broad generic stage abstraction.
-
-Validators implement the shared validator contract and return one decision per candidate proposal. Deterministic validators and LLM-backed validators are both composable chain elements. Validator identity and execution class metadata are stable enough to affect ordering, diagnostics, reports, and correction-ledger classification.
-
-Future module or validator changes should preserve:
-
-- explicit inputs and outputs;
-- no hidden global state;
-- explicit config dependencies;
-- deterministic proposal index handling;
-- validation before final mutation;
-- stable reason codes and validator keys where already exposed.
-
-## LLM Integration and Concurrency
-
-LLM calls are external effects behind narrow contracts. Production structured completions use `contracts.StructuredLLMClient`; the implemented provider adapter is OpenAI-compatible HTTP code in `internal/framework/llm`.
-
-Structured response schemas are registered in `internal/framework/responseschema`. Provider-side schema enforcement is not a substitute for local validation: Audita still validates proposal structure, validator decision cardinality, and apply-time safety.
-
-Concurrency is bounded by configured scheduler limits:
-
-- total LLM concurrency;
-- proposal LLM concurrency;
-- validation LLM concurrency.
-
-The scheduler is context-aware and releases permits on success, failure, and cancellation. Runner code may collect section-level work concurrently, but transcript mutation is applied later in deterministic proposal-index order.
-
-Diagnostics for LLM interactions should be useful for debugging without leaking configured secrets. Use the existing redaction helpers and `llm.ConfiguredSecrets`.
-
-## State, Inputs, and Outputs
-
-Audita does not implement resume, checkpoint, manifest, or remote storage behavior. Runtime state is in memory plus per-run diagnostics artifacts written under the configured work directory.
-
-Transcript input accepts the implemented JSON forms documented in the public contract. Parsed source transcripts are normalized into Audita's internal transcript shape before chunking and module execution.
-
-Proposals and validator decisions are intermediate runtime data. Approved proposals are applied through `internal/framework/proposals`, which clones transcript state, orders by proposal index, and records applied or skipped changes.
-
-Transcript output is encoded through `internal/core/outputschema`. Reports and correction ledgers are machine-readable artifacts derived from runner outputs; their public shape should not be changed casually.
-
-## Configuration and CLI Boundaries
-
-Config behavior is owned by `internal/core/config`; command usage and process wiring are owned by `internal/cli`.
-
-`audita process` uses implemented precedence: defaults, config file, environment, then CLI flags. `config validate` validates defaults plus a file config and intentionally does not apply environment overrides. `config print-effective` applies defaults, file config, and environment overrides, then prints redacted JSON.
-
-Do not duplicate full CLI or config reference material here. Use [Configuration](../config.md), [CLI reference](../cli.md), [Operations](../operations.md), and integration docs under [`docs/integrations/`](../integrations/subprocess.md) for current external behavior.
-
-When adding config fields or CLI flags, update:
-
-- config defaults, file/env/CLI application, and validation;
-- CLI flag extraction if applicable;
-- redaction when secrets are involved;
-- tests for precedence and source-specific behavior;
-- user-facing docs if external behavior changes.
-
-## Errors, Logging, and Diagnostics
-
-Errors should be phase-specific enough for CLI users and subprocess callers. The CLI writes human-readable errors to stderr and preserves transcript JSON-only stdout behavior on successful stdout output.
-
-Run diagnostics are best-effort after run-directory creation. Failed runs are retained. Successful run retention follows the implemented work-dir retention policy.
-
-Diagnostics and reports must not leak configured LLM secrets. Config redaction and LLM payload/error redaction are separate responsibilities and should remain separate.
-
-Process reports, diagnostics metadata, utilization diagnostics, and correction ledgers are part of the public contract. Prefer additive, compatible changes.
-
-## Testing Expectations
-
-Use targeted package tests for touched behavior and `go test ./...` for substantial changes.
-
-When changing modules, inspect or add:
-
-- package-local module tests under `internal/modules/*`;
-- prompt rendering or proposal-generation tests when prompt inputs change;
-- parity or release fixtures when public output behavior changes.
-
-When changing validators, inspect or add:
-
-- validator package tests;
-- registry and chain tests under `internal/validators`;
-- framework validator tests for batching, malformed output, diagnostics, and cardinality.
-
-When changing LLM integration or concurrency, inspect or add:
-
-- `internal/framework/llm` scheduler/client/redaction tests;
-- `internal/framework/runner` orchestration and utilization tests;
-- structured-output malformed classification tests.
-
-When changing config, CLI, schema, output, reports, or diagnostics, inspect or add:
-
-- `internal/core/config` tests;
-- CLI tests under `internal/cli`;
-- schema and output-schema tests under `internal/core`;
-- report, diagnostics, parity, and release-fixture tests.
-
-## Dependency Policy
-
-Audita should remain dependency-light. Prefer standard-library solutions for CLI parsing, HTTP, JSON, filesystem, synchronization, and tests.
-
-Third-party dependencies should be narrow, justified, and preferably de facto standard for their purpose. YAML parsing is the current direct dependency exception.
-
-Do not add broad frameworks for CLI, dependency injection, workflow orchestration, logging, or plugin systems without a concrete implemented need and focused tests.
-
-## Documentation Expectations
-
-Follow [Documentation Policy](./documentation.md). Architecture policy must stay concise and aligned with implemented behavior.
-
-Do not use architecture docs as changelogs. Do not describe planned modules, adapters, modes, persistence, or configuration unless they are implemented. Put future work under `docs/roadmap/`.
-
-## Architectural Invariants
-
-- Keep LLM transport behind `StructuredLLMClient` and framework adapter boundaries.
-- Keep correction modules narrowly scoped and package-separated.
-- Keep validators modular, composable, and identified by stable keys.
-- Keep CLI/config/filesystem concerns out of module and validator domain logic.
-- Preserve deterministic transcript mutation and output handling around nondeterministic LLM calls.
-- Keep LLM concurrency bounded, configurable, and observable where implemented.
-- Keep run diagnostics and reports redacted and machine-readable.
-- Keep public CLI, config, output-schema, diagnostics, report, prompt, module, and validator contracts stable unless a change is explicit and tested.
-- Prefer small shared helpers over broad rewrites.
-- Avoid new dependencies unless they are narrow and clearly justified.
-
-## Non-Goals
-
-- No plugin framework is implemented.
-- No generic workflow engine is implemented.
-- No resume, checkpoint, manifest, or remote storage system is implemented.
-- No multi-process service mode is implemented.
-- No provider SDK abstraction beyond the current structured LLM client contract and OpenAI-compatible HTTP adapter is implemented.
+**Base Policy Version:** 1.3
+
+**Last Updated**: 2026-09-28
+**Upstream Source:** [Standard Repository Policies architecture](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/policy/src/commit/d84a38ebab26f048cafbe59a2246700c35d29843/docs/policy/architecture.md)
+
+## Purpose And Ownership
+
+The adopted policy defines the application's purpose and the architectural
+constraints contributors must follow. It owns system boundaries, responsibility
+and dependency rules, established invariants, and explicit non-goals.
+
+Describe the concrete package inventory and implementation mechanics in internal
+documentation. Link to canonical public contracts for their exact behavior and
+to ADRs for decision rationale.
+
+## Architectural Approach
+
+Hexagonal architecture is strongly recommended, including encapsulating external
+integrations and APIs within internal adapters. Keep domain and application
+logic independent of external integration details, and make dependency direction
+clear in the adopted policy.
+
+Implement that separation with proportionate, idiomatic code. Choose interfaces
+and package layout to serve the application's actual boundaries. Use adapters
+for collaborators with external integration responsibilities.
+
+## Adopted Constraints And Implemented Structure
+
+Architectural constraints govern current and future development. Record
+implemented structure accurately, proposals and implementation status in the
+roadmap, and significant decisions and rationale in ADRs. Describe a target
+structure as implemented when its changes land.
+
+Constraints must reflect deliberately selected requirements and decisions.
+Do not promote incidental implementation choices into architectural invariants.
+
+## Application-Specific Topics
+
+Audita is a single-process Go CLI for transcript polishing. Its architecture
+separates deterministic transcript processing from external LLM effects through
+narrow contracts and adapters. Correction modules and validators remain explicit,
+composable components in an ordered processing pipeline.
+
+This policy owns architectural requirements. The [internal overview](../internal/overview.md)
+owns the implemented component inventory and links to runtime mechanics.
+[CLI](../cli.md), [configuration](../config.md), [operations](../operations.md),
+and [integration documentation](../integrations/subprocess.md) own external contracts.
+
+## Ownership and Dependency Direction
+
+- **Core:** owns domain data handling and reusable configuration, schema,
+  normalization, chunking, output, diagnostics, and reporting contracts. Domain
+  behavior must not require CLI or provider-transport knowledge.
+- **Framework:** owns orchestration contracts and shared runtime mechanics for
+  modules, validators, proposals, LLM adapters, and report assembly.
+  It composes domain operations through explicit inputs and outputs.
+- **Modules:** own narrowly scoped correction behavior and module-specific prompt
+  choices. Keep module packages separate rather than collapsing their distinct
+  responsibilities into a broad generic stage abstraction.
+- **Validators:** own validation behavior and composition. Deterministic and
+  LLM-backed validators remain explicit, independently composable elements.
+- **Prompts:** own embedded prompt assets and metadata used by the runtime.
+- **CLI and adapters:** own command parsing, streams, filesystem wiring, and
+  transport. Keep these concerns outside module, validator, and schema logic.
+
+LLM transport belongs behind `StructuredLLMClient` and framework adapter
+boundaries. Prefer small shared helpers over broad rewrites. Keep module and
+validator inputs, outputs, and configuration dependencies explicit, without
+hidden global state.
+
+## Correction and Concurrency Invariants
+
+- Treat LLM responses as nondeterministic inputs. Preserve deterministic proposal
+  indexing, validator ordering, transcript mutation, reports, and serialization.
+- Validate corrections before final mutation, including local proposal checks,
+  decision cardinality, and apply-time safety. Provider-side schema enforcement
+  does not replace these checks.
+- Keep LLM concurrency bounded and context-aware through PromptKit's engine-local
+  per-backend admission. Proposal and validation calls selecting the same backend
+  share that capacity, including retries and repairs. Preserve deterministic
+  collection order. Recoverable model-operation failures stay local to their
+  proposal response or validation batch; fatal invariant/application failure
+  and parent cancellation stop peers and join them.
+- Keep module and validator identities, reason codes, and execution-class
+  distinctions stable where exposed as contracts.
+
+The [pipeline](../internal/pipeline.md), [modules](../internal/modules.md),
+[validators](../internal/validators.md), and [LLM runtime](../internal/llm-runtime.md)
+describe how these requirements are implemented.
+
+## State and Compatibility
+
+Keep transcript mutation and output handling deterministic around external
+calls. Reports and correction ledgers are derived from processing results.
+Preserve the separation between transient processing state and filesystem
+adapters; physical report placement and optional debug retention belong to
+[operations](../operations.md).
+
+Public CLI, configuration, output-schema, diagnostics, report, prompt, module,
+and validator contracts should remain stable unless a change is deliberate and
+tested. The resilience work intentionally replaced the earlier JSON process
+report with versioned errors/recoveries YAML and a fixed Markdown overview;
+future changes should treat those current contracts deliberately. Current implementation
+limits are documented in the [internal overview](../internal/overview.md#current-scope);
+they are not additional prohibitions on future development.
+
+## Trust Boundaries And Threat Scope
+
+Errors should identify the failed processing phase sufficiently for users and
+subprocess callers. Preserve the stream and exit behavior defined by the
+[CLI contract](../cli.md) and the artifact handling defined by
+[operations](../operations.md).
+
+Diagnostics, reports, and surfaced errors must not leak configured LLM secrets.
+Configuration redaction and LLM payload/error redaction have separate
+responsibilities and should remain separate. Implementation details belong in
+[diagnostics and reporting](../internal/diagnostics-reporting.md).
+
+## Dependencies
+
+Keep Audita dependency-light and prefer the Go standard library for CLI parsing,
+filesystems, synchronization, and tests. ConfigKit owns configuration loading,
+presence, provenance, and secret resolution; PromptKit owns prompt/profile
+loading, OpenAI-compatible transport, retries, repairs, and backend admission.
+Audita owns domain meaning, role selection, and deterministic processing.
+
+Do not introduce broad CLI, dependency-injection, workflow, logging, or plugin
+frameworks without a concrete implemented need and focused tests.
+
+## Testing and Documentation
+
+Follow the [testing policy](testing.md) for risk-based sufficiency and stable test
+boundaries. Keep tests close to the behavior they protect; shared helpers should
+remove duplication without obscuring component-specific behavior. Relevant
+internal docs identify component tests and change recipes; the
+[contributor guide](../development.md) provides baseline validation commands.
+
+Follow the [documentation policy](documentation.md) for ownership, current versus
+future behavior, and the ADR lifecycle. Keep architecture concise and normative;
+use the roadmap for implementation plans rather than maintaining a changelog or
+future-feature specification here.

-# Audita Development Workflow
-
-## Scope
-
-This is the canonical contributor workflow for Audita maintainers and coding agents.
-
-It defines:
-- repository layout and boundaries;
-- setup and test commands;
-- expectations for code changes;
-- how to add config, CLI, modules, validators, docs, and examples.
-
-## Setup
-
-Prerequisites:
-- Go `1.24` or newer.
-
-Common commands:
-
-```sh
-go test ./...
-go build ./cmd/audita
-```
-
-## Repository Layout
-
-Top-level areas:
-- `cmd/audita`: executable entrypoint.
-- `internal/cli`: command parsing and process/config command orchestration.
-- `internal/core`: deterministic config/schema/normalization/chunking/output/diagnostics/reporting logic.
-- `internal/framework`: runner orchestration, contracts, proposal generation/application, validators runtime, LLM runtime, response schemas.
-- `internal/modules/*`: module-specific correction behavior.
-- `internal/validators/*`: validator implementations, chains, and metadata.
-- `internal/prompts`: embedded prompts and prompt metadata.
-- `docs/`: canonical documentation.
-- `examples/`: maintained copyable inputs/configs.
-
-## Change Workflow
-
-1. Confirm scope and behavior contract before editing.
-2. Make focused changes in the appropriate ownership area.
-3. Add or update tests for changed behavior.
-4. Run targeted package tests for touched areas.
-5. Run `go test ./...` for substantial changes.
-6. Update docs/examples when external behavior changes.
-
-## How To Add or Change Configuration
-
-1. Add fields/defaults/validation under `internal/core/config`.
-2. Apply source precedence correctly (defaults, file, env, CLI for `process`).
-3. Ensure `config validate` remains file-only and `config print-effective` remains redacted.
-4. Update tests in `internal/core/config` and related CLI tests.
-5. Update [`docs/config.md`](../config.md) and relevant examples under `examples/`.
-
-## How To Add or Change CLI Behavior
-
-1. Implement parsing/wiring in `internal/cli`.
-2. Keep stdout/stderr and exit behavior compatible unless intentional and documented.
-3. Update CLI tests under `internal/cli` and integration tests under `cmd/audita`.
-4. Update [`docs/cli.md`](../cli.md) and related integration docs.
-
-## How To Add or Change Modules
-
-1. Add or update one module package under `internal/modules/<module_key>`.
-2. Keep module-specific prompt ownership in the module + `internal/prompts`.
-3. Wire module registration/catalog resolution through framework/core module catalog code.
-4. Verify replacement policy and validator chain selection.
-5. Add/update module tests and proposal-generation tests.
-6. Update internal docs when behavior/contracts change.
-
-## How To Add or Change Validators
-
-1. Implement validator behavior in `internal/validators` and shared runtime pieces in `internal/framework/validators` only when needed.
-2. Preserve stable validator keys and decision semantics where already exposed.
-3. Keep deterministic vs LLM-backed execution-class behavior explicit.
-4. Add/update validator, chain, batching, and malformed-output tests.
-5. Update validator documentation when external or developer-facing behavior changes.
-
-## Documentation and Examples Expectations
-
-- Keep one canonical home per topic (see [`docs/policy/documentation.md`](documentation.md)).
-- Do not document future/unimplemented behavior outside `docs/roadmap/`.
-- Keep command examples and config/examples in sync with current code.
-- Keep examples secret-free and copyable.
-
-## Practical Validation Checklist
-
-Use this checklist for meaningful runtime-impacting changes:
-
-1. Run core tests:
-
-```sh
-go test ./...
-```
-
-2. Verify config commands and examples:
-
-```sh
-go run ./cmd/audita config validate --config examples/minimal-config.yml
-go run ./cmd/audita config validate --config examples/production-config.yml
-go run ./cmd/audita config print-effective --config examples/minimal-config.yml
-```
-
-3. Re-check subprocess/runtime contract when touching CLI/process/report paths:
-- `--output` success keeps stdout empty;
-- no `--output` success writes transcript JSON to stdout;
-- `--report-json` writes file output and is not written to stdout;
-- failures return nonzero and include diagnostics path when available.
-
-4. Re-check diagnostics/report/redaction when touching LLM, reporting, or diagnostics code:
-- report schema metadata fields remain present;
-- diagnostics artifact paths remain valid;
-- configured secret values remain redacted in reports/diagnostics/errors.
-
-5. Re-check output schema behavior when touching serialization/schema code:
-- default `bare-segments` behavior remains correct unless intentionally changed;
-- `audita-v1` behavior remains correct unless intentionally changed;
-- unsupported schemas fail validation/resolve paths clearly.
-
-## Commit Discipline
-
-- Keep commits scoped and reviewable.
-- Avoid mixing unrelated refactors with behavior changes.
-- Use concise plain-English commit messages.

-# Go Project Documentation Policy
+# Documentation Policy
+
+**Base Policy Version:** 1.11
+
+**Last Updated**: 2026-09-28
+**Upstream Source:** [Standard Repository Policies documentation](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/policy/src/commit/d84a38ebab26f048cafbe59a2246700c35d29843/docs/policy/documentation.md)
 
 ## Purpose
 
-Project documentation must help four audiences:
-
-1. users who need to run the application;
-2. administrators/operators who need to configure and operate it;
-3. developers who need to understand and change it safely;
-4. LLM coding agents that need clear scope, boundaries, and invariants.
-
-Docs should be accurate, concise, task-oriented, and organized by audience. Prefer links to canonical docs over repetition.
+This policy assigns each documentation topic to one canonical owner. Its goal is
+to keep this application's documentation accurate, concise, discoverable, and resistant
+to drift for users, operators, developers, integrators, and LLM coding agents.
 
 ## Core Rules
 
-### 1. Keep docs concise
+### One Canonical Owner
+
+Each authoritative fact belongs in one document. A non-owning document may give
+a short, stable summary for orientation, but it must link to the canonical owner
+for volatile details.
+
+Volatile details include commands, flags, configuration fields and defaults,
+module keys, schemas, file names, paths, status codes, retry behavior, and
+runtime guarantees. If readers could reasonably treat a statement as a
+contract, maintain it only in the owning document.
+
+### Current And Future Behavior
+
+Outside `docs/roadmap/`, documentation describes implemented behavior only.
+Partial features may be described only to their implemented boundary.
+
+Architectural constraints may govern future changes. Describe current structure
+from implemented behavior.
+
+ADRs may record an accepted architectural decision before implementation. The
+roadmap owns implementation status and sequencing until the decision is
+implemented. Current architecture, user, operator, integration, and internal
+documentation are updated when the behavior lands.
+
+### Audience And Detail
+
+Write for the document's stated audience and include only the detail needed for
+its owned topic. Keep user and operator docs focused on using and operating the
+application. Developer docs should link to user-facing and external contracts
+for their definitions.
 
-Each document should cover a defined scope and only the essentials for that scope.
-
-Avoid:
-- long background explanations;
-- repeated reference material;
-- implementation detail in user-facing docs;
-- aspirational language outside roadmap docs;
-- verbose examples where one minimal example is clearer.
-
-### 2. Document only implemented behavior outside roadmap files
-
-Unimplemented, planned, aspirational, experimental, or future work may be described only under:
-
-- `docs/roadmap/`
-
-No other documentation file, including `README.md`, should describe code, features, modules, stages, commands, config fields, or behaviors that do not currently exist.
-
-If a feature is partial, non-roadmap docs may describe only the implemented portion and its current boundary.
-
-### 3. Use canonical homes
-
-Each type of information should have one canonical location.
-
-Canonical homes:
-
-- project purpose and quickstart: `README.md`
-- development principles: `docs/policy/architecture.md`
-- configuration reference: `docs/config.md`
-- CLI reference: `docs/cli.md`
-- operations and recovery: `docs/operations.md`
-- troubleshooting: `docs/troubleshooting.md`
-- implemented internals: `docs/internal/`
-- future work: `docs/roadmap/`
-- contributor workflow: `docs/policy/development.md`
-- copyable examples: `examples/`
-
-Other files should summarize briefly and link to the canonical source.
-
-### 4. Keep examples real
-
-Examples should be valid, maintained, and free of secrets.
-
-Where practical:
-- example configs should load successfully;
-- example commands should match real CLI syntax;
-- important examples should be covered by tests.
-
-## Documentation Profiles

-
-- `README.md`

-
-This is the only place for planned, future, aspirational, experimental, or unimplemented work.
-
-Roadmap docs should clearly distinguish:
-
-- proposed work;
-- accepted plans;
-- deferred ideas;
-- rejected ideas;
-- implementation prompts or task breakdowns, if useful.
-
-Roadmap docs should not be confused with current behavior.
-
-### docs/integrations/
-
-**Audience:** developers, LLM coding agents
-
-Required for projects that depend on external CLIs, APIs, services, protocols, or file formats where the integration contract is important to maintain.
-
-This directory contains concise, versioned reference notes for external integration contracts. It should document only the parts of the external system that this project actually uses.
-
-Use one file per integration where useful.
-
-## Examples Directory
-
-Projects with non-trivial configuration or workflows should include `examples/`.
-
-Useful examples include:
-
-- minimal working config;
-- production-oriented config;
-- full annotated config;
-- local development config;
-- remote/object-storage config;
-- minimal session/input file.
-
-Examples should be valid, maintained, tested when practical, and linked from relevant docs.
-
-## Security and Privacy
-
-Docs and examples must not include:
-
-- real API keys;
-- tokens;
-- passwords;
-- private keys;
-- private environment dumps;
-- sensitive user data;
-- raw private transcripts;
-- private infrastructure details unless intentionally public.
-
-Document secret-handling mechanisms, not actual secret values.
-
-## Maintenance Rules
-
-When docs change, verify the affected behavior.
-
-Where practical:
-
-- load example config files in tests;
-- test CLI examples or command parser behavior;
-- validate documented flags against real flags;
-- remove stale references;
-- update links after renames;
-- keep roadmap content out of non-roadmap docs.
-
-If documentation and code disagree, fix the documentation and/or open a roadmap item; do not leave aspirational behavior in current-behavior docs.
-
-Documentation is complete only when it matches the current code.
-
-## Documentation Change Checklist
-
-Before merging documentation changes, verify:
-
-- README is concise and orientation-focused.
-- `docs/policy/architecture.md` describes development principles.
-- Future work appears only under `docs/roadmap/`.
-- User-facing docs avoid unnecessary internals.
-- Developer-facing docs preserve boundaries and invariants.
-- Config examples match the schema.
-- CLI examples match real commands and flags.
-- Defaults appear in the canonical config reference.
-- No secrets or private data are included.
-- Links are accurate.
+### Examples
+
+Complete copyable files belong in `examples/`. Documentation may use the
+smallest illustrative snippet needed to explain its owned topic, but should link
+to maintained examples for complete copyable files.
+
+Examples must be valid, secret-free, and tested where practical. Commands and
+configuration used in documentation should match the application.
+
+### Security And Privacy
+
+Documentation and examples must not contain real credentials, private keys,
+private environment dumps, sensitive source material, or private infrastructure
+details unless intentionally public. Document secret-handling mechanisms, not
+secret values.

+
+Create supporting documents for existing interfaces and responsibilities when

+Audita has retired its standalone troubleshooting guide; concrete operating and
+recovery procedures belong in `docs/operations.md`.
+
+## Boundary Rules
+
+### Orientation
+
+Link among orientation, architecture, and internal documents; maintain each
+package or behavior description in its canonical owner.
+
+### Commands, Configuration, And Operations
+
+CLI documentation answers how to invoke the application. Configuration
+documentation answers what settings mean. Operations answers what happens to
+runtime state and how to operate or recover the application. When a workflow
+crosses these topics, choose the document that owns the task and link to the
+other contracts.
+
+### Releases
+
+The release policy defines requirements and invariants that every release must
+satisfy. The repository-specific release procedure defines the commands and
+workflow maintainers use to satisfy that policy. Release notes record history
+at immutable tags. Maintain current behavior in its canonical documentation,
+update it with the corresponding behavior changes, and keep release procedures
+consistent with adopted policy.
+
+### Project Licensing And Upstream Attribution
+
+README and release documents link to the canonical licensing and attribution
+materials under the [OSS policy](oss.md). The release procedure owns URL
+construction and publication mechanics.
+
+### Contracts And Implementation
+
+Integration and API documents define externally observable shapes and
+semantics. Internal documents explain how this application implements or consumes those
+contracts. Internal docs may name a field, file, or protocol to identify a
+dependency, but must link to its canonical contract for the definition.
+
+### Security Topics
+
+This policy owns what documentation and examples may contain. Architecture owns
+application security invariants. Configuration owns credential-supply
+mechanisms. Operations owns permissions and handling of sensitive runtime
+artifacts. Internal docs own implementation mechanisms only.
+
+## Architecture Decision Records
+
+Use sequentially numbered ADR filenames such as
+`0001-record-architecture-decisions.md`. Follow the lightweight Nygard format:
+
+1. title;
+2. status;
+3. date;
+4. context;
+5. decision;
+6. alternatives considered;
+7. consequences.
+
+Treat the decision content of an accepted ADR as immutable. When a decision
+changes, create a new ADR and update the earlier ADR's status to superseded.
+Rejected architectural alternatives belong in the ADR; rejected product ideas
+belong in the roadmap.
+
+## Maintenance
+
+When behavior changes, update its canonical owner in the same change. If
+ownership moves, remove the old definition and replace it with a link where
+navigation remains useful.
+
+Before completing documentation work:
+
+- verify affected behavior and examples;
+- check commands, flags, fields, defaults, schemas, and paths against their
+  implementation;
+- keep unimplemented behavior in the roadmap, subject to the ADR exception;
+- remove stale references and validate links;
+- confirm that non-owning documents summarize and link rather than redefine;
+- confirm that no secrets or sensitive private data were added.

+## Origin And Local Authority
+

+
+## Adoption And Updates
+
+For policy adoption, upstream revision reviews, and updates, consult the
+[upstream adoption and update guide](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/policy/src/branch/main/docs/adoption.md).
+That guide and the reference example collection are maintained upstream and

+# Open Source Licensing And Attribution Policy
+
+**Base Policy Version:** 1.8
+
+**Last Updated**: 2026-09-28
+**Upstream Source:** [Standard Repository Policies oss](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/policy/src/commit/d84a38ebab26f048cafbe59a2246700c35d29843/docs/policy/oss.md)
+
+## Purpose And Scope
+
+This policy defines project licensing conventions and a repeatable House Format
+for upstream attribution and license notices. It covers the project's own code
+and upstream components incorporated into or distributed with the application
+or library, including relevant transitive dependencies and copied code,
+documentation, or assets.
+Determine treatment from the component's terms and actual use.
+
+Consulting development guidance or using tooling alone does not require an
+attribution entry. Copying or adapting documentation for inclusion in the
+repository is different: preserve its applicable attribution and license terms.
+A material's role as development guidance does not exempt copied documents.
+Apply any express permissions for attribution-free reuse of example formatting.
+
+The baseline is a publicly available source repository with releases published
+alongside it. The format is independent of language, forge, and build system.
+It does not require attribution for every development tool, establish license
+compatibility, or resolve every obligation arising from use or distribution.
+
+Audita uses the existing GPL-3.0-or-later application grant in
+[`COPYRIGHT`](../../COPYRIGHT). The Gitea distribution and publication procedure
+are documented in the [release runbook](../release.md).
+
+## Canonical Locations
+
+The [documentation policy](documentation.md) assigns ownership:
+
+- `COPYRIGHT`: project name, copyright statements, SPDX expression, grant,
+  warranty disclaimer, and third-party statement.
+- `LICENSE` contains the complete, unmodified project license text, including
+  incorporated companion text. Dependency attribution does not relicense the project.
+- `docs/oss/attribution.md`: canonical component entries.
+- `docs/oss/licenses/`: complete, verbatim standard and applicable companion texts.
+
+Use recognizable license filenames, such as `Apache-2.0.txt` or `LGPL-3.0.txt`.
+A shared standard text may serve multiple entries. Keep explanations outside
+license texts and preserve distinct versions and exceptions.
+
+## Upstream Reference Examples
+
+Use the commit-pinned upstream examples to create actual project notices.
+Retain their links and keep the example collection upstream; keep applicable
+license texts locally as specified above.
+
+## Project Licensing
+
+Unless the author specifies otherwise, use **GPL version 3 or later**
+(`GPL-3.0-or-later`) for applications and **LGPL version 3 or later**
+(`LGPL-3.0-or-later`) for libraries. An author's explicit choice takes precedence:
+for example, a one-off script may use MIT. Such a choice requires no exception
+rationale, additional approval, or compensating controls under this policy.
+
+These defaults guide new license selection. Adopting this policy does not
+relicense existing code or override third-party terms. Preserve an existing
+license unless the author deliberately changes it. For mixed-purpose projects,
+follow the author's selected scope rather than inferring different licenses for
+individual packages.
+
+Use the upstream [application COPYRIGHT example](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/policy/src/commit/d84a38ebab26f048cafbe59a2246700c35d29843/examples/licensing/application/COPYRIGHT)
+or [library COPYRIGHT example](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/policy/src/commit/d84a38ebab26f048cafbe59a2246700c35d29843/examples/licensing/library/COPYRIGHT)
+to create the project’s root `COPYRIGHT` file.
+Use verified project names, contribution years, and copyright holders.
+For another selected license, adapt the grant, SPDX expression, disclaimer, and
+text references together to reflect the author's selected grant.
+
+For GPLv3 projects, copy the complete GPLv3 text into `LICENSE`. For LGPLv3
+projects, place the complete LGPLv3 text followed by the complete GPLv3 text in
+`LICENSE`; the LGPL incorporates the GPL terms. Keep the texts unmodified and
+place project-specific statements in `COPYRIGHT`. For the default grants, the
+grant and SPDX expression in `COPYRIGHT` must expressly identify `or-later`;
+follow the author’s choice if a different grant is selected.
+
+For other licenses, provide their complete text and any required project-specific
+fields; the standard reference collection remains unchanged. Keep `COPYRIGHT`,
+`LICENSE`, SPDX expressions, and README descriptions consistent with the actual
+grant. This convention introduces no blanket requirement for per-file headers;
+preserve notices or add them where the applicable terms require them.
+
+Identify separately licensed documentation or assets in the project grant, with
+links to their attribution and license information. An application's default
+code license does not override the terms of incorporated documentation.
+
+## Upstream Attribution House Format
+
+Begin `docs/oss/attribution.md` with `# Open Source Attribution Notices`,
+followed directly by component entries. These comprise the complete document.
+
+Each entry presents these five fields in order, with blank lines between them:
+
+1. **Project name** as a level-two heading. An optional identification paragraph
+   may follow, such as `Selected module: MODULE at VERSION.` with the module and
+   version in backticks. For copied documentation, a concise `Material:` sentence
+   may identify the affected files and whether they were adapted or copied
+   without modification. A factual qualifier such as `(transitive dependency)`
+   is permitted. Limit optional identification prose to factual component and
+   material scope.
+2. **Upstream copyright statement or statements**, preserving their wording.
+   Put multiple statements in separate paragraphs. Include this field when the
+   selected upstream source supplies an applicable statement; otherwise, omit it.
+3. **SPDX license identifier or expression**, when applicable, using
+   `SPDX-License-Identifier: EXPRESSION`.
+4. **License and notice links**, beginning `License and notices:`, separated
+   by ` | `, and ending with a period. Label local standard texts by license
+   name, such as `MIT` or `Apache 2.0`. Label upstream files by their actual
+   filenames, such as `COPYRIGHT`, `LICENSE`, `NOTICE`, or `PATENTS`.
+5. **Source repository link**, rendered exactly as `[Source](COMMIT_URL).`.
+
+Use the upstream [attribution example](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/policy/src/commit/d84a38ebab26f048cafbe59a2246700c35d29843/examples/licensing/attribution.md)
+to create the project’s `docs/oss/attribution.md`.
+The example illustrates omitted fields and multiple copyrights and licenses.
+Replace the uppercase placeholders and illustrative URLs with actual component
+information. Local license links are relative to the destination
+`docs/oss/attribution.md`; copy the applicable texts into its `licenses/`
+directory. Do not copy example entries for components the project does not use.
+
+These are five fields, not a line limit. Omit the SPDX field when no applicable
+identifier exists; identify nonstandard terms through the linked text. Preserve
+licensing alternatives and exceptions, and record a selected option when
+relevant through the factual license identification. Do not invent an identifier
+or silently resolve an unsettled licensing choice.
+
+Keep entries factual. Do not add agent-authored explanations of license
+expressions, file-level license scope, research performed, retained source
+notices, or compliance conclusions. Avoid filler such as "none is invented
+here" and embellished link labels such as "upstream LICENSE", "additional
+patent grant", or "at the imported commit". Preserve actual required upstream
+content; this rule excludes editorial additions, not required notices. Policy
+interpretation and exception reasoning belong in the adopted OSS policy or an
+appropriate decision record, not the attribution document.
+
+## License Texts And Upstream Links
+
+Link standard license texts to their local copies. Link project-specific
+notices to their upstream copies. Every upstream repository or notice link must
+identify the exact commit corresponding to the
+imported version, including the selected source revision for copied material.
+
+Classify material according to its contents. An upstream `LICENSE`,
+`COPYING`, or similar file may contain project-specific notices or exceptions
+in addition to standard wording. Link both the local standard text and the
+commit-specific upstream file when needed. Make companion license texts directly
+reachable from the entry.
+
+For project-specific license and attribution material, this policy accepts
+direct links to the applicable upstream texts as satisfying reproduction,
+inclusion, or copy requirements. This is the adopted house interpretation.
+Agents must apply it without adding local-copy requirements or seeking repeated
+approval solely because a license uses those terms.
+
+This interpretation concerns notice reproduction. Concrete obligations such as
+marking modified files or supplying corresponding source receive their own
+applicable treatment. Preserve required notices already present in incorporated
+source files; the central attribution entry does not authorize stripping them.
+
+## Discoverability
+
+End the project's README with two friendly statements linking to its actual
+grant in `COPYRIGHT` and the attribution document. For example, for a project
+with the stated license:
+
+```markdown
+PROJECT_NAME is licensed under the [LGPL v3.0 or later](COPYRIGHT).
+
+[Open Source attribution notices](docs/oss/attribution.md) are available.
+```
+
+Each new checked-in release document and its hosted download page must end
+with links whose visible text is `COPYRIGHT | LICENSE | ATTRIBUTION`. Use absolute
+URLs to those files at the release's immutable tag or corresponding immutable source
+revision so the links work in both locations. This release navigation is distinct
+from upstream component links, which must use the imported commit.
+
+Reuse the checked-in release document as the hosted release body where supported.
+The release procedure owns concrete URLs and publication mechanics for delivering
+the links through the selected channel. Do not maintain duplicate notice lists.
+These conventions do not by themselves require separate downloadable license
+assets, source bundles, or a different binary package format.
+
+## Maintenance And Exceptions
+
+Update project licensing statements together when the author changes the grant
+or its scope. Update upstream notices in the change that adds, removes, upgrades,
+copies, or changes the distribution of a relevant component. Check the selected source's license
+and notices rather than assuming they are unchanged. Update affected entries,
+commit links, and texts; retain historical versions through Git.
+
+When the toolchain used for distributed binaries changes, check the Go runtime
+and standard-library entries against that toolchain's exact source revision,
+including any vendored packages incorporated into those binaries.
+
+Check affected statements, faithful standard-text copies, and link destinations
+as part of ordinary change review. For a future release tag, check intended file
+paths against the candidate source; the tag need not resolve remotely before
+publication. Do not add publication-time network checks, CI polling, recurring
+legal sign-offs, mandatory scanners, or a full software bill of materials merely
+to implement this policy.
+
+Use the House Format routinely. Raise an exception only for a concrete obligation
+or unresolved rights question it does not address, including any arising from a
+particular distribution channel. Record the issue and selected treatment in the
+adopted OSS policy or an appropriate decision record. Attribution entries
+contain the resulting factual identification and required material, without
+repeating that reasoning. Resolve the issue before the affected use or
+distribution without reopening settled choices.
+Common ownership of projects is neither required nor a blanket exception.
+
+Apply the formatting convention prospectively. Do not rewrite published tags,
+notes, binaries, or checksums to retrofit it. Address actual omissions deliberately
+under the applicable terms and the [release correction policy](release.md#immutability-and-failure-recovery).
+Ordinary attribution maintenance and release links are preparation work, not new
+release approval gates.

+# Release Policy
+
+**Base Policy Version:** 1.4
+
+**Last Updated**: 2026-09-28
+**Upstream Source:** [Standard Repository Policies release](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/policy/src/commit/d84a38ebab26f048cafbe59a2246700c35d29843/docs/policy/release.md)
+
+## Purpose
+
+This policy defines a proportionate workflow for validating and publishing an
+intended source revision under a fresh version. Releases should require little
+routine intervention, avoid repeated work, and preserve published contents.
+
+The repository-specific commands belong in `docs/release.md`. Historical release
+summaries belong in `docs/releases/`. The procedure must agree with the adopted
+policy and link to it rather than introduce additional release requirements.
+
+## Release Model And Completion
+
+A source release identifies one exact committed source revision through an
+immutable version tag and a version-matched, checked-in release note. The
+primary release branch is `main` unless the adopted policy specifies otherwise.
+The procedure must name the authoritative publication remote.
+
+A successful push of the intended tag, with its source commit available on the
+authoritative primary branch, completes the release. The source commit may be
+pushed before the tag or published together with it through an atomic push.
+The procedure must choose and document the supported approach.
+
+Release commands must finish at successful publication. They must not wait for
+or poll CI, require successful CI status, inspect downloadable artifacts, or
+check consumer installation or Go module availability as completion gates.
+A failed or ambiguous push requires resolving the authoritative remote state
+before declaring success or retrying; successful pushes do not require a
+separate remote read-back gate.
+
+Repositories may publish source only. Additional binaries, images, packages,
+checksums, or other declared deliverables may be published asynchronously from
+the tagged source. The procedure must identify those deliverables and the
+responsibility of their automation. Published deliverables must be traceable
+to that source and identify the same version.
+
+Track source-release completion and artifact delivery separately. Report delivery
+failures and optional investigations under artifact-delivery status.
+
+## Supported Platforms
+
+| Platform | Support |
+| --- | --- |
+| Linux amd64 | Required production target |
+| Linux arm64 | Required production target |
+| macOS arm64 | Best effort for local development; failures do not block a release or Linux artifact publication |
+
+Windows and macOS amd64 are unsupported. Neither their builds nor tests are
+release requirements. Native macOS testing and access to a Mac are not release
+prerequisites.
+
+## Versioning And Compatibility
+
+Stable releases use Semantic Versioning in the form `vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH`, with
+no leading zeroes. Prereleases require an explicit adopted policy defining
+their format and use.
+
+The selected version must be unused locally and on the authoritative remote.
+Do not require queries to every configured remote or publication service.
+A version known to have already been published must not be reused, even if the
+normal guards do not inspect that channel. Adding a distribution channel
+requires a deliberate update to the policy and procedure where needed.
+
+For releases at or after `v1.0.0`:
+
+- a major release may make intentional incompatible changes;
+- a minor release may add backward-compatible behavior; and
+- a patch release may make backward-compatible fixes.
+
+Before `v1.0.0`, a minor release may change a documented public, operational,
+configuration, data, integration, or compatibility contract when the release
+note explains the impact and required consumer action. A patch release must
+not intentionally break those contracts within its minor line.
+
+Additional compatibility promises and deliberate exceptions belong in the
+adopted policy or canonical contract documentation. Release notes explain
+changes; they do not redefine current compatibility contracts.
+
+## Release Documentation And Preparation
+
+Every new release must include `docs/releases/<version>.md` in the tagged
+source tree. Use the complete version tag as the filename and begin with a
+title containing the product name and that exact version.
+
+Include a short summary and any relevant compatibility impact or upgrade
+instructions. Choose sections suited to the release and keep the note
+proportionate to the change.
+
+Keep exact current contracts in their canonical documents and update affected
+documentation with the behavior change. Link to those documents from the note
+where useful. If annotated tags are used, derive their summary from the
+checked-in note.
+
+Include the release footer defined by the [OSS policy](oss.md#discoverability)
+in each new release document and preserve it on the hosted download page. The
+release procedure defines the concrete URLs and publication mechanics. Prepare
+these links with the release note; they do not add a network check or approval
+gate.
+
+Handle version selection, release-note content, and retirement of completed
+roadmaps during preparation. Preserve planned and deferred work and repair
+affected links when retiring roadmaps. Reuse ordinary change review for
+unintended files, credentials, and private data. Scope release-content review
+to the tagged source.
+
+## Candidate Validation
+
+Provide one publication command that validates the final committed candidate,
+checks publication state, and publishes the intended refs. A validation-only
+mode or command may be provided for diagnosis, but must not be a required step
+before publication repeats the same checks.
+
+Run the complete deterministic, offline default test suite once for the final
+candidate, following the [testing policy](testing.md). For repositories that
+publish builds, verify the required build targets. Select those targets for
+the application's actual support commitments; native testing on each platform
+and access to particular hardware are not default release prerequisites.
+
+Additional gates must address a concrete risk that the existing checks do not
+adequately cover. Do not automatically require linting, race testing, module
+hygiene audits, documentation audits, credential scans, example validation, or
+expanded platform matrices solely because they are possible. Retain such
+checks when their distinct protection justifies their cost. A one-time migration
+check must not silently become a permanent release requirement.
+
+Release tests must not require real credentials, mutable application services,
+paid APIs, provider probes, or inference calls. The procedure may describe dependency
+preparation separately from offline validation.
+
+Avoid duplicate validation across release phases. Successful checks for the
+same final candidate need not be repeated solely to satisfy another phase;
+any reuse must clearly apply to that exact candidate. Persistent validation
+caches are not required. If the candidate changes, validate the new candidate.
+Cheap publication-state checks may be repeated immediately before pushing
+because local or remote state may have changed during validation.
+
+Automate mechanical guards. Do not require manual approvals, sign-offs, or
+routine confirmations as release gates. Version selection and
+a concise release summary remain preparation inputs, not separate approval rounds.
+
+## Publication Guards
+
+Automate the checks needed to publish the intended source under a fresh version:
+
+- the version has the adopted format and is unused locally and on the
+  authoritative remote;
+- the worktree and index are clean on the primary release branch;
+- the source being published is the exact candidate that passed validation,
+  including its matching release note;
+- the remote primary branch already identifies that candidate, or an atomic
+  source/tag push will advance it to that candidate without discarding remote
+  history; and
+- the tag identifies the validated candidate and only the intended refs are
+  published.
+
+Fetch the authoritative branch and tag state as needed for these checks.
+Do not force branch or tag updates to bypass a failed guard. Publish explicit
+refs rather than all local tags. Do not require CI success, publication-service
+availability checks, or a separate manual confirmation for each guard.
+
+## Immutability And Failure Recovery
+
+Published version tags and published contents are immutable. Do not move,
+overwrite, recreate, or delete a published tag, or replace a published artifact,
+checksum, signature, provenance statement, or release note under that version.
+The checked-in note at the immutable tag is that release's historical record.
+
+If validation fails before publication, correct and commit the candidate and
+rerun the publication command. If a push fails or its outcome is ambiguous,
+inspect the authoritative remote before retrying. Remove an unpublished local
+tag only after confirming it was never published or used by a release channel.
+An unavailable remote leaves publication status unknown; do not overwrite a tag
+to resolve uncertainty.
+
+Transient network, authentication, CI, or consumer-availability failures do not
+by themselves require a new version. Asynchronous delivery may be retried from
+the same immutable tag. Missing artifacts may be published later, provided
+existing published contents are not replaced and the additions remain consistent
+with the tagged source and any already-published checksum manifest. If that
+cannot be achieved, publish a new version.
+
+A defect requiring changes to published source or contents requires a corrected
+commit, a new semantically appropriate version, a matching release note, and
+the release procedure again. Leave the original release intact. A channel's
+yank, deprecation, or advisory mechanism may warn consumers away from a defective
+release without replacing its contents or reusing its version.
+
+## Repository Release Procedure
+
+Maintain `docs/release.md` as a short, executable maintainer runbook. It must
+identify:
+
+1. prerequisites, primary branch, and authoritative remote;
+2. version and release-note preparation;
+3. one publication command with its selected local checks and automated guards;
+4. declared deliverables, required build targets, and automation responsibilities;
+5. the successful-push completion point and separately reported delivery status;
+   and
+6. failure handling, ambiguous-push recovery, and asynchronous delivery retries.
+
+Use copyable commands where practical. Keep optional diagnostics and consumer
+verification clearly optional. The procedure must not turn preparation work,
+ordinary change review, or post-publication investigation into additional
+release gates.

+# Testing Policy
+
+**Base Policy Version:** 1.3
+
+**Last Updated**: 2026-09-28
+**Upstream Source:** [Standard Repository Policies testing](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/policy/src/commit/d84a38ebab26f048cafbe59a2246700c35d29843/docs/policy/testing.md)
+
+## Purpose
+
+Our tests exist to make **incorrect changes expensive and correct changes cheap**.
+
+We optimize for sufficient confidence in important behavior while minimizing friction on future development.
+
+## Every test has a cost
+
+Every test has an immediate and continuing cost: writing, review, execution,
+diagnosis, fixture maintenance, and updates when legitimate behavior changes.
+Tests can also constrain refactoring, duplicate policy, and add failure noise.
+
+A test is warranted only when the confidence it provides justifies these costs.
+Evaluate that tradeoff at two levels:
+
+1. **Per test:** What realistic defect does this test detect, how consequential would that defect be, and is that protection worth the test's lifetime cost?
+2. **Across the suite:** Does this collection provide materially more confidence than a smaller, simpler suite would?
+
+Some friction is intentional. Tests should make dangerous changes—such as breaking compatibility, corrupting data, violating security boundaries, or reintroducing subtle bugs—require deliberate review. Keep ordinary internal changes inexpensive.
+
+Evaluate maintenance cost against the specific failure being protected. When omitting a plausible test, be able to state why the protected failure is low-risk, already covered, obvious, reversible, or cheaper to detect elsewhere. For consequential, subtle, or difficult-to-observe behavior, the presumption should favor testing.
+
+## Default testing style
+
+Use a **classical/Detroit-style** approach:
+
+- Test observable behavior, resulting state, contracts, and invariants.
+- Use real internal collaborators when they are fast and deterministic.
+- Use fakes, stubs, or mocks primarily at expensive, nondeterministic, destructive, or external boundaries.
+- Prefer package-level behavioral tests over tests coupled to private helpers or internal call sequences.
+- Treat exact collaborator interactions as testable behavior only when the interaction itself is a requirement.
+
+Examples of appropriate seams include clocks, randomness, subprocesses, remote APIs, object storage, email, and paid LLM calls.
+
+## Test execution requirements
+
+Tests in the default suite must be deterministic, offline, and independent of real credentials. They must not invoke paid APIs or depend on mutable external services. Tests that require live infrastructure must be explicitly opt-in and clearly separated from the default suite.
+
+Control clocks, randomness, environment variables, and other process-global or machine-specific state when they affect behavior. Tests should be safe to run repeatedly and alongside other tests without depending on execution order or state left by an earlier test.
+
+## What deserves tests
+
+To the extent the following features are present in the application, prioritize tests for:
+
+1. Public and package-level contracts.
+2. Domain rules and important invariants.
+3. Boundary conditions and malformed input.
+4. Failure handling, cancellation, retries, recovery, and partial success.
+5. Serialization, schemas, compatibility, and round trips.
+6. Previously observed or plausible regressions.
+7. Representative integration and end-to-end workflows.
+
+A package-level contract comprises behavior relied upon by another package or major collaborator.
+
+Choose tests for requested behavior and established contracts. Tests must not
+introduce new restrictions, guarantees, or threat scenarios merely because they
+could be asserted. Follow the [agent policy](agents.md) when deciding whether a
+behavior belongs to the contract; current implementation behavior alone is not
+sufficient authority.
+
+For established behavior involving **data integrity, destructive operations,
+compatibility, security, concurrency, idempotency, or recovery**, favor durable
+tests for realistic failures whose consequences warrant protection. Identify
+the failure and the existing contract it would violate. These categories call
+for attention, not an automatic test inventory or permission to strengthen the
+application's guarantees. Account for protection already provided at other layers.
+
+Do not add tests merely because a function, branch, or line exists. Do not add a test when the same meaningful risk is already adequately protected elsewhere.
+
+## Choose the right test boundary
+
+Choose the narrowest stable boundary that expresses the behavior clearly and
+provides durable confidence with minimal incidental coupling.
+
+This is often the package API, but it may instead be:
+
+- a smaller pure function when dense domain logic is most clearly isolated there;
+- a package-level operation when several internal collaborators jointly produce the behavior; or
+- a larger integration boundary when correctness emerges from interaction with a real dependency.
+
+## Test behavior, not implementation
+
+A test should protect a selected decision, contract, or invariant.
+
+A test is suspect when it primarily detects changes to private constants or
+helpers, equivalent operation ordering, incidental formatting, equivalent
+algorithms, or internal structure that preserves behavior.
+
+Behavioral tests should normally remain stable through internal refactoring that preserves the contract.
+
+## Expected effects of different changes
+
+Use the following expectations when evaluating test failures and test maintenance:
+
+| Change | Expected effect on tests |
+|---|---|
+| Internal refactor that preserves behavior | Existing tests should normally remain unchanged and continue to pass. |
+| Change to an internal default with no contractual significance | Behavioral tests should normally remain unchanged; tests should derive expectations from configuration or relationships rather than duplicate the old value. |
+| Intentional change to public behavior, policy, schema, or compatibility guarantees | The relevant tests should be reviewed and changed deliberately. |
+| Accidental violation of a contract or invariant | Tests should fail; fix the production code rather than rewriting the tests to accept the defect. |
+
+A test failing is not the same as a test needing to be edited. Many tests may correctly fail because of one production defect. The maintenance smell is a correct internal change that requires unrelated expectation updates throughout the suite.
+
+## Separate mechanism from policy
+
+Derive expectations from test-controlled configuration and relationships.
+
+For this example, assume the selected contract rejects a request to start more
+processes than a configured limit. Do not encode its production default indirectly:
+
+```go
+// Production default:
+const maxConcurrency = 4
+
+// Brittle test:
+err := startProcesses(5)
+require.Error(t, err)
+```
+
+Instead, test the mechanism relationally:
+
+```go
+const limit = 2
+runner := NewRunner(limit)
+
+require.NoError(t, runner.Start(limit))
+require.ErrorIs(t, runner.Start(limit+1), ErrTooMuchConcurrency)
+```
+
+For this selected contract, the test should prove:
+
+- the configured limit is accepted; and
+- one beyond the configured limit is rejected.
+
+Rejection is not a general requirement for concurrency control. If the selected
+contract queues excess work or limits active workers while accepting larger
+batches, test that behavior instead. Do not add rejection or a configurable
+limit solely to reproduce this example.
+
+The production default should be tested exactly only when its literal value is itself a public, operational, safety, protocol, or compatibility requirement.
+
+Apply the same rule to limits, timeouts, capacities, retry counts, and ranges: test relationships and behavior.
+
+For established concurrency limits, distinguish these behaviors where the contract requires them:
+
+1. **Configuration handling:** values are accepted or rejected according to the selected contract.
+2. **Runtime enforcement:** observed peak concurrency never exceeds the configured limit.
+
+Use a test-controlled limit and measure the behavior relative to that limit.
+
+## Assign each behavior a test owner
+
+Where these layers exist, assign ownership as follows:
+
+- Parser tests own parsing cases.
+- Validator tests own validation rules.
+- Domain tests own transformations and invariants.
+- Adapter tests own external integration behavior.
+- Orchestrator tests own coordination and failure propagation.
+- CLI tests own argument and configuration mapping.
+- End-to-end tests prove that representative assembled workflows work.
+
+Give each layer its distinct responsibility and keep expectation updates localized to the contract being changed.
+
+## Use test doubles deliberately
+
+Choose the least elaborate test double that provides the required control or observation.
+
+As a default:
+
+1. Prefer real collaborators when they are fast and deterministic.
+2. Use small in-memory fakes when realistic stateful behavior is helpful.
+3. Use stubs when a dependency only needs to provide controlled responses.
+4. Use mocks when the interaction itself is contractual.
+
+Mocks are appropriate when the contract includes facts such as:
+
+- a notification is sent exactly once;
+- a transaction is committed only after successful writes;
+- cancellation reaches a subprocess;
+- an expensive API is called no more than once; or
+- a security audit event is emitted.
+
+## Go-specific guidance
+
+Select techniques by behavior and risk:
+
+- table-driven tests for meaningful behavioral categories and boundaries;
+- `t.TempDir()` for real filesystem behavior;
+- `httptest.Server` for realistic HTTP interactions;
+- fuzz tests when exploring broad input spaces, such as parsers or path handling, adds useful protection beyond representative cases;
+- golden files only when the complete output is intentionally stable;
+- integration tests where correctness depends on component interaction; and
+- a small number of representative end-to-end tests when assembled workflows expose meaningful risks not adequately covered at narrower boundaries.
+
+Prefer `errors.Is`, `errors.As`, typed errors, or structured error fields. Use exact error-wording assertions only when the wording is contractual.
+
+At CLI boundaries, prefer exit classifications, structured output, and the smallest stable semantic fragment needed to identify the error. Use complete diagnostic snapshots only when the wording is contractual.
+
+Golden-file updates must require an explicit local flag. CI must not update golden files automatically, and reviewers must inspect the semantic diff before accepting an update.
+
+Keep tests readable and direct. Size test helpers and fixture frameworks to the maintenance benefit they provide.
+
+## Coverage
+
+Use coverage to locate untested critical branches and unexpectedly weak packages. Evaluate test quality through meaningful behavioral protection and choose coverage according to risk.
+
+Pure domain logic will often warrant higher coverage than CLI wiring or external adapters. Uneven coverage is acceptable when it reflects risk.
+
+## Regression tests
+
+A bug fix should normally include a regression test that fails before the fix and passes afterward.
+
+Retain the test when the defect could realistically recur and its consequences justify the ongoing cost. Prefer the narrowest durable test of the violated contract or invariant.
+
+Remove or consolidate a test when the underlying design has made recurrence impossible, its protection is redundant, or a stronger invariant test subsumes it.
+
+## Deleting or rewriting tests
+
+Delete or rewrite tests when maintenance cost exceeds their continuing
+protective value.
+
+Strong candidates include tests that:
+
+- require updates after harmless internal changes;
+- assert incidental private constants or snapshot large amounts of incidental output;
+- verify mock choreography rather than outcomes;
+- duplicate policy across layers, retest trivial helpers covered by package
+  behavior, or protect risks covered more effectively elsewhere;
+- are flaky, misleading, obsolete, or disproportionately expensive to diagnose; or
+- no longer correspond to a plausible failure mode.
+
+Several brittle tests may encode one genuine requirement. Consolidate them into one durable behavior-level or invariant test.
+
+## Reviewing a proposed test
+
+Use the following questions when a proposed test needs closer evaluation. Significant test additions should be reviewable against them; written answers are optional for routine tests.
+
+1. Which requested behavior or established contract does it protect, and what realistic defect would violate it?
+2. How likely and consequential is that defect, and is it already protected elsewhere?
+3. What is the narrowest stable boundary that can test it clearly?
+4. Would a correct internal refactor or a change to an incidental default require test edits?
+5. Does its confidence justify its maintenance, execution, and diagnostic cost, or would a smaller test suffice?
+
+## Definition of sufficient
+
+A test suite is sufficient when:
+
+- important requested behavior and established contracts are protected against realistic, consequential failures;
+- boundaries and component interactions have coverage where they introduce meaningful risks not protected elsewhere;
+- failures provide useful, distinct signals;
+- tests usually remain stable through legitimate internal changes; and
+- additional tests would mostly repeat existing protection or preserve inconsequential implementation details.
+
+Reassess sufficiency as the application, its users, and the consequences of
+failure evolve.

+# Releasing Audita
+
+The [release policy](policy/release.md) defines versioning, supported platforms,
+immutability, and success. This runbook implements it with
+[scripts/release.sh](../scripts/release.sh). Publication ends after a successful
+source/tag push; binary delivery runs asynchronously.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Use Bash, Git, and Go 1.25.5 or newer (CI uses Go 1.25.5), with dependencies
+available locally or downloadable. Tests themselves are offline. Work from a
+checkout of `main` with permission to push that branch and tags to `origin`.
+For this repository, `origin` is `https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/audita.git`.
+The script uses the checkout's configured `origin`; set it correctly before use.
+The remote must support atomic pushes. No CI credentials or Mac are needed locally.
+
+CI uses the existing `GITEA_RELEASE_TOKEN` secret for asynchronous asset delivery.
+macOS arm64 is a best-effort development environment; no macOS binary is published.
+
+## Prepare the Candidate
+
+Choose an unused version following the policy. Write
+`docs/releases/<version>.md`, beginning with `# Audita <version>`, followed by a
+short summary and any compatibility or upgrade instructions relevant to the
+release. There are no mandatory boilerplate sections. Update affected canonical
+documentation with behavior changes.
+
+End each new note with these links, substituting the selected release version for
+`<version>`:
+
+```markdown
+[COPYRIGHT](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/audita/src/tag/<version>/COPYRIGHT) | [LICENSE](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/audita/src/tag/<version>/LICENSE) | [ATTRIBUTION](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/audita/src/tag/<version>/docs/oss/attribution.md)
+```
+
+Check that all three paths exist in the candidate source. Retire completed
+roadmaps when useful during preparation, preserving planned and deferred work
+and repairing affected links. This is ordinary preparation, not a script gate.
+
+Commit the intended changes, including the note, on `main`. The release script
+requires a clean index and worktree and does not create commits. There is no
+separate approval round. Published notes describe their tagged release; existing
+release history does not need to be reconstructed.
+
+## Validate and Publish
+
+From the repository root, substitute the chosen version:
+
+```sh
+bash scripts/release.sh --publish v0.2.0
+```
+
+This single invocation:
+
+1. Checks the version, branch, clean candidate, matching note title, and tag absence.
+2. Runs the default offline test suite once, then builds both required Linux targets
+   in a temporary directory using the same build script as CI.
+3. Checks that the candidate and worktree are unchanged and that it includes the
+   current `origin/main` history.
+4. Creates the version tag at that commit and atomically pushes the exact source
+   commit to `main` and the exact tag to `origin`.
+5. Reports release success and exits without polling CI or checking asset availability.
+
+To validate a prepared candidate without remote access, creating a tag, or pushing:
+
+```sh
+bash scripts/release.sh --check v0.2.0
+```
+
+This is an optional diagnostic command, not a required step before `--publish`.
+Publication validates within its own invocation; it does not use persistent cached
+results. Both modes require the candidate note and a clean `main` checkout.
+
+## Artifact Delivery
+
+[Woodpecker](../.woodpecker/release.yml) runs on tag events. It invokes
+[scripts/build-release.sh](../scripts/build-release.sh), then publishes:
+
+- `audita-<version>-linux-amd64`
+- `audita-<version>-linux-arm64`
+- `SHA256SUMS`
+
+Builds disable CGO and use the shared script's release flags. The version is in the
+asset name and source tag; Audita has no CLI version command. Cross-compilation
+checks compilation, not native execution on each architecture.
+
+The CI job status and logs show delivery progress or failure. Assets appear on
+the matching Gitea release page when delivery succeeds. A successful tag push
+must not be reported as confirmation that these files are available.
+For a new hosted release, the release plugin uses the checked-in note at the
+tag as its body, including the footer. On delivery retries it preserves
+existing release information and skips files that already exist.
+
+Consumers can download the binary for their Linux architecture and `SHA256SUMS`
+from that page, check its listed SHA-256 digest with `sha256sum`, and make it
+executable. Optional consumer checks are not maintainer release gates. Digests
+detect file mismatches; they are not an independent signature of authenticity.
+
+## Failure and Retry
+
+**Local validation fails:** correct the issue, commit any changes, and rerun the
+publication command. A failure before tag creation publishes nothing. Temporary
+local build files are removed on exit.
+
+**Push fails or the connection is interrupted:** the script retains the local tag
+and reports failure rather than guessing whether publication succeeded. Inspect
+remote state with the actual version:
+
+```sh
+git rev-parse 'v0.2.0^{commit}'
+git ls-remote origin refs/heads/main refs/tags/v0.2.0
+```
+
+If the remote tag identifies the intended candidate and its source is on remote
+`main`, the release succeeded; no CI waiting is needed. An atomic push normally
+updates both refs or neither. If `main` has advanced since publication, fetch it
+and check candidate ancestry rather than requiring tip equality.
+
+If the tag is absent remotely and was never published or used by a release
+channel, remove only that unpublished local tag (`git tag -d v0.2.0`), resolve
+any rejected branch update, and rerun the command. If the remote tag has a
+different target, do not overwrite it; choose a fresh version. Never force a
+branch or tag update to bypass the guards.
+
+**CI delivery fails:** the release remains successful. Inspect the failed tag
+job's logs and retry that same tagged job for a transient failure. Publication is
+configured to skip existing filenames and not overwrite assets. Keep the same
+source and build environment when retrying; inspect any existing assets/checksum
+manifest before filling gaps. Do not regenerate and replace a published manifest
+or binary. If an existing manifest cannot describe the missing rebuilt assets,
+use a new version instead. A pipeline or source defect also requires a corrected
+commit and new version. An outage does not require moving the tag.
+
+**A released source defect is discovered:** fix it on `main` and publish a new
+appropriate version with a note explaining the correction. Leave the old tag and
+published files intact.
+
+## Maintaining the Release Workflow
+
+The shared build script keeps local and CI build settings aligned. Tests in
+[scripts/release_test.go](../scripts/release_test.go) exercise publication against
+temporary local Git remotes, including guard failures and rejected pushes, with
+Go execution stubbed to avoid recursive builds/tests. They run in `go test ./...`.
+Changes to CI delivery should preserve explicit asset names, checksums, and
+non-overwriting publication. CI delivery is separate from the local success path.

+# Audita v2.0.0
+
+Audita v2 adopts ConfigKit for configuration and PromptKit for LLM execution,
+adds resilient processing and focused reports, and improves correction prompts
+and validation. This is an intentional breaking release; existing installations
+must migrate their configuration and invocation settings.
+
+- Configuration uses `version: 2` YAML, named backends, PromptKit model profiles,
+  and optional named overlays. Offline configuration validation and inspection
+  expose effective settings, selected profiles, and provenance.
+- Proposal and validation calls share per-backend capacity. PromptKit handles
+  transport retries and structural response repair within bounded operation
+  timeouts.
+- Transcript chunks remain fixed through the LLM stages. Recoverable model
+  failures preserve progress and allow other work to continue. If every LLM
+  operation fails recoverably, processing still produces the deterministically
+  normalized transcript without LLM corrections. Cancellation, application
+  failures, and required output failures remain fatal.
+- Ordinary output includes `errors.yml`, `recoveries.yml`, and `report.md`, plus
+  a brief completion summary. Detailed correction and LLM diagnostics are opt-in
+  with `--debug`; `--reporting=false` suppresses all three ordinary reports.
+- Empty replacement text supports validated span deletion while preserving a
+  nonblank segment. Validator responses retain usable decisions despite missing,
+  duplicate, or extraneous entries; unavailable decisions never approve an edit.
+- Prompts use short request-local references, consistent shared instructions,
+  and relevant neighboring/glossary context for validation. Spoken-word cleanup
+  can reduce accidental protected-name repetition subject to validation.
+
+Follow the [v2 migration guide](../migrations/v2.md) before upgrading. Version-1
+configuration, implicit environment-setting overlays, retired model/credential/
+concurrency flags, and the former JSON report interface have no compatibility
+shim. Start from the maintained examples linked in that guide, configure profiles
+and credential references, and validate the new configuration. Update report and
+debug consumers for the [current output contract](../integrations/output-files.md).
+
+Linux amd64 and arm64 remain the production targets; macOS arm64 is best effort
+for development. Binary and checksum delivery runs asynchronously after source/tag
+publication, as described in the [release procedure](../release.md).

+# Audita v3.0.0
+
+Audita v3 adopts native configuration inheritance and layered PromptKit
+definitions, and allows transcript and report destinations to be selected
+independently. This is an intentional breaking release: existing PromptKit
+profile files require migration from the v2 release format.
+
+## Changes
+
+- ConfigKit is updated from v0.4.2 to v0.5.0. Application configuration supports
+  native sibling inheritance, and configuration explanations include value-free
+  inheritance provenance.
+- PromptKit is updated from v0.11.2 to v0.12.0, with both backend catalogs at
+  `v3.20260930.0`. Native keyed definitions support profile inheritance and
+  operator prompt overrides. The selected `profiles_dir` can contain profiles,
+  backends, and prompts; application backend endpoints, capacity, and credentials
+  remain authoritative.
+- Effective definitions and referenced prompt message contents are captured at
+  runtime construction. Consumed host configuration and message files are
+  protected from output collisions. Audita retains its per-call schemas, domain
+  validators, retry and repair budgets, and resilient processing behavior.
+- An explicit `--report-dir` now selects reports for either file or stdout
+  transcript output. File output without that flag still places reports beside
+  the transcript. This supports Narratio's independent output destinations;
+  debug capture remains independently selectable.
+
+## Upgrading from v2
+
+1. Convert each old PromptKit profile to a keyed definition under
+   `profiles: {<profile-id>: ...}`, remove its inner `id`, and replace
+   `base_profile` with `extends`. Profile IDs come from mapping keys rather than
+   filenames. No compatibility loader or automatic conversion is provided.
+2. Review explicit zero, omitted, and null generation controls. For example,
+   `temperature: 0` now sends an explicit zero, omission leaves the control
+   unspecified, and null suppresses an inherited control. A zero profile timeout
+   disables PromptKit's generation deadline; Audita's operation deadline still
+   applies.
+3. Select a configuration root whose final definitions are valid. PromptKit now
+   validates unused definitions too, including backend references, and conflicting
+   values within a directory source group are errors. The maintained examples
+   use separate [local](../../examples/profiles/local/) and
+   [service](../../examples/profiles/service/) roots. Runtime source edits take
+   effect on the next invocation.
+4. Rename any application backend literally named `extends` and update its
+   profile references. ConfigKit now reserves that key for inheritance.
+5. Validate the migrated installation with
+   `audita config validate --config /path/to/config.yml`, including any selected
+   testing overlay. Application configuration continues to use `version: 2`.
+
+The [configuration reference](../config.md#promptkit-profiles-and-operator-prompts)
+contains the migrated format and presence rules. Start from the maintained
+[local](../../examples/minimal-config.yml),
+[service](../../examples/production-config.yml), or
+[application inheritance](../../examples/configkit-inheritance.yml) examples.
+The [CLI reference](../cli.md) describes report selection, and the
+[release procedure](../release.md) describes source publication and asynchronous
+Linux binary delivery.

+# ConfigKit v0.5.0 Adoption Roadmap
+
+**Last updated:** 2026-10-03
+
+**Status:** Complete. The implementation and tests are committed through
+`8175ed8`. Final documentation and example changes were included in the full
+build, test, example-validation, and local-link checks before the documentation
+completion commit. The [implementation plan](implementation.md) records the
+ordered work and verification.
+
+## Purpose and Baseline
+
+Adopt ConfigKit v0.5.0 as an independently reviewable step before PromptKit
+v0.12.0. Use the library's configuration and inheritance conventions while
+preserving Audita's domain ownership and existing operator workflows.
+
+At the reviewed Audita revision `6ae1d7cd5f548b26de5787372d3f2249eaa4757d`,
+[go.mod](../../go.mod) selects ConfigKit v0.4.2, PromptKit v0.11.2, and Go
+1.25.5. ConfigKit already owns loading, presence, secret resolution, and
+configuration inspection. Audita's `internal/core/config` supplies typed
+settings, defaults, derived values, and domain validation; `internal/cli`
+selects files, overlays, and explicit overrides. The
+[configuration contract](../config.md) and [CLI contract](../cli.md) own the
+implemented behavior.
+
+The reviewed upstream release is
+[ConfigKit v0.5.0](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/ConfigKit/src/tag/v0.5.0/docs/releases/v0.5.0.md),
+commit `dc09959cca4e105f49ec316c6d4ba585bd2340bd`. It adds layered underlays,
+caller-owned filesystem sources, mapping sources, source resource contexts, and
+built-in sibling inheritance. The Go minimum and YAML dependency do not change.
+Ordinary `Load` remains available; adopting `LoadLayered` is optional.
+
+This roadmap supersedes the completed original adoption plan at this path.
+The [historical roadmap](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/audita/src/commit/6ae1d7cd5f548b26de5787372d3f2249eaa4757d/docs/roadmap/configkit.md)
+records that earlier migration. Its coordinated breaking-refactor instructions
+and release target do not govern this incremental upgrade.
+
+## Target End State
+
+- Audita uses the released ConfigKit v0.5.0 module, with no local replacement.
+  PromptKit stays at v0.11.2 throughout this adoption unit.
+- Configuration retains the current file-selection, overlay, explicit-override,
+  resolution, and validation flow, subject to the reserved-key compatibility
+  impact described below. Retain the application schema version, CLI interface,
+  and main-file-relative resource rules defined in the current contracts.
+- Application configuration can use ConfigKit's native sibling `extends`
+  relationships. Audita does not implement a second inheritance resolver,
+  special backend-only syntax, or an opt-in switch around the library feature.
+- Inherited values participate in presence-aware defaults, domain validation,
+  secret resolution, and safe inspection just like other effective input.
+  In particular, inherited backend settings must not be overwritten merely
+  because they were not written directly on the child.
+- Effective settings and explanations remain useful and secret-safe when
+  values are inherited. Preserve existing inspection fields and add compact,
+  value-free inheritance evidence from ConfigKit's metadata rather than
+  reconstructing provenance from YAML.
+- Canonical documentation and a maintained example explain the adopted
+  inheritance behavior. Attribution identifies the exact new upstream source.
+
+The upstream [configuration contract](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/ConfigKit/src/tag/v0.5.0/docs/config.md#sibling-inheritance)
+owns generic inheritance mechanics. The integration must account for three
+consequences: `extends` is reserved automatically throughout input mappings;
+relationships resolve after source precedence and before typed decoding; and
+inherited zero, false, empty, or null values count as explicit input. An inherited
+value still has to satisfy Audita's field-specific rules. Parent definitions
+also undergo ordinary application validation; inheritance does not introduce
+abstract, validation-exempt backend entries.
+
+## Scope and Adoption Boundary
+
+Keep the existing `Load` integration unless implementation reveals a concrete
+need to change it. Source-backed defaults, additional operator underlay tiers,
+imports, and source-relative reinterpretation of application paths are outside
+this feature. Their availability upstream does not require expanding Audita's
+configuration surface. Imports and secret-directory bootstrap retain their
+current disabled state.
+
+ConfigKit inheritance applies to Audita configuration in this step. PromptKit
+profile formats, profile inheritance, engine construction, embedded prompts,
+and backend catalogs remain governed by the existing PromptKit integration.
+There is no application-owned translation of profile documents in this work.
+
+This is an independent ConfigKit adoption ahead of the planned PromptKit
+migration. A separate public release between the two units is optional.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- The released ConfigKit v0.5.0 dependency and exact source attribution are
+  adopted; PromptKit remains at v0.11.2 with its existing catalogs.
+- Native inheritance preserves effective endpoints, capacity, explicit zero
+  queue capacity, child overrides, and surviving credential references through
+  Audita's loading, resolution, and validation boundary.
+- Selected overlays and explicit overrides retain their precedence; omitted
+  validation-role selection still derives from the final proposal selection.
+- Null can remove a child's credential while surviving references on parents
+  and other unselected backends still follow the existing credential contract.
+- Selected roles use inherited backend settings and share its configured
+  capacity under the existing PromptKit runtime contract.
+- Effective settings remain redacted, and both CLI explanations and debug
+  configuration origins expose compact, value-free inheritance evidence while
+  retaining existing fields and application-derived explanations.
+- A maintained complete example and canonical documentation describe native
+  inheritance, its field-validation implications, and the reserved-key
+  compatibility impact. Existing workflows and applicable offline checks pass.
+
+## Completion and Release Treatment
+
+Adoption is complete when the released dependency is pinned, existing workflows
+pass, representative inheritance works through loading and runtime wiring,
+inspection includes value-free inheritance evidence and remains secret-safe,
+and the example, canonical docs, and attribution match the implementation. No
+PromptKit migration or provider behavior change is required to close this unit.
+
+Release classification remains provisional. A minor release would be appropriate
+for a backward-compatible addition, but the newly reserved `extends` key can
+invalidate currently valid application configuration. For example, Audita
+currently permits a backend literally named `extends`; ConfigKit v0.5.0 treats
+that mapping key as an inheritance directive rather than a backend ID. Do not
+promise blanket compatibility or settle on a minor release until the final
+compatibility review resolves this impact under the
+[release policy](../policy/release.md). Describe any required migration in the
+canonical documentation and release notes when the upgrade ships. Do not select
+or publish a release as part of roadmap preparation. A later PromptKit
+migration's profile-format compatibility decision belongs to that separate
+feature.
+
+## Selected Overlays for Testing
+
+This heading preserves links from historical adoption documents. The original
+[overlay plan](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/audita/src/commit/6ae1d7cd5f548b26de5787372d3f2249eaa4757d/docs/roadmap/configkit.md#selected-overlays-for-testing)
+is historical; current overlay behavior belongs to [configuration](../config.md).
+This upgrade preserves that workflow and adds native ConfigKit inheritance
+without reviving the earlier combined migration plan.

+# Deferred Feature Work
+
+**Last updated:** 2026-10-03
+
+**Status:** Deferred or exploratory work; not implemented or scheduled. These
+entries preserve work beyond the completed resilience and span-deletion
+features. Each entry states its intent; inclusion does not commit us to
+implementing every capability.
+
+## Domain-Aware Response Recovery
+
+The implemented [partial-success decision reconciliation](../internal/validators.md#llm-validator-batching)
+preserves usable decisions without another model call. Guided recovery remains
+deferred pending evidence from failures that remain. General per-entry
+salvage from structurally invalid responses is also a separate design question;
+the accepted reconciliation feature retains whole-response structural validation.
+
+Consider bounded feedback and regeneration for model responses that satisfy the
+structural schema but leave requested decisions unavailable after reconciliation.
+The goal would be to recover more usable work before excluding affected
+candidates, when doing so materially improves outcomes.
+
+This capability is explicitly deferred. Current behavior retains PromptKit
+structural repair and per-candidate reconciliation; unavailable requested
+decisions produce errors while other candidates can succeed.
+
+Before implementation, define the Audita/PromptKit ownership boundary, which
+checks are eligible for feedback, how feedback identifies defects without exposing
+secrets, and how regeneration fits bounded budgets and operation deadlines. Reuse
+shared library capabilities where appropriate; do not introduce an uncoordinated
+outer retry loop that multiplies existing retry/repair budgets.
+
+Ordinary editorial rejection is a valid decision, not a reason to regenerate until
+an edit is approved. Recovery must preserve required validation, candidate identity,
+partial-success safety, and truthful error/recovery reporting. Validate with
+controlled responses that distinguish recoverable protocol defects from valid
+negative decisions. Exact APIs, budgets, and sequencing remain undecided.
+
+## Independent Whole-Pipeline Traversal by Chunk
+
+Explore allowing each fixed chunk to advance through its ordered stages without
+waiting for other chunks to finish the current stage. This could reduce waiting
+behind a slow chunk and improve utilization while preserving stage order within
+each chunk and deterministic final recombination.
+
+The resilience feature deliberately retains stage barriers: finish a stage across
+chunks before advancing to the next stage. Fixed boundaries alone do not authorize
+independent traversal.
+
+A future design must establish that stages do not depend on other chunks' evolving
+state, preserve stable identities and partial-success rules, and continue to share
+PromptKit's per-backend capacity across all roles and stages. Reporting must remain
+deterministic despite different completion orders, and fatal cancellation must
+still stop and join active work. Assess whether the scheduling change materially
+improves real workloads before introducing additional orchestration machinery.
+No new scheduler, global limiter, or execution mode is selected by this entry.
+
+## Whole-Segment Removal
+
+Potential future work, subject first to evaluating whether it is worth implementing
+at all. Empty replacement text and deletion of a span within a surviving segment
+are covered by the implemented [span-deletion behavior](../internal/modules.md#proposal-generation-ownership).
+That feature does not remove segment records or permit blank resulting segments.
+
+Before designing segment removal, review representative production examples to
+establish whether whole-segment deletion is a meaningful unmet need. An empty
+replacement alone does not establish that intent: it can express ordinary filler
+or punctuation deletion within a larger segment. Assess how often genuinely
+expendable whole segments occur after deterministic normalization, the transcript
+quality benefit of removing them, and the risk of losing substantive speech.
+Compare those benefits with the implementation and ongoing maintenance costs.
+Retaining the segment and declining the edit is a valid outcome if the benefit is
+small or uncertain. No numerical adoption threshold is selected.
+
+Only if that evaluation supports proceeding should a separate feature design
+choose a representation, authorization and validation rules, and reporting
+semantics. It must address meaning preservation and the effects on segment
+identity, timestamps, fixed chunks, subsequent stages, recombination, and output
+consumers. Do not infer authorization to remove a segment from an empty string
+or introduce segment-removal machinery as part of span-deletion consistency.

+# Implementation Plan: PromptKit v0.12.0 Adoption
+
+**Last updated:** 2026-10-04
+**Status:** Complete; Stages 1–9 completed.
+**Audience:** Luna coding agent.
+
+## Scope and Execution
+
+Implement the accepted target in the [PromptKit roadmap](promptkit.md). That
+document owns feature intent and policy choices; this plan owns the ordered
+implementation work. The planning baseline is Audita commit
+`b31955fc97adec707b4e5f9a1b0c43c4cbc66750`: ConfigKit v0.5.0 is adopted,
+PromptKit is v0.11.2, and the finalized roadmap includes the selected-profile,
+operator-override, example-layout, and major-release clarifications.
+
+This replaces the completed ConfigKit plan at this path. Its
+[completed implementation record](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/audita/src/commit/b31955fc97adec707b4e5f9a1b0c43c4cbc66750/docs/roadmap/implementation.md)
+remains available for readers following the ConfigKit completion roadmap.
+
+Execute Stage 1 through Stage 9 in order. Each is sized as one bounded Luna
+implementation prompt. Commit completed units with short, plain English messages
+under the [agent policy](../policy/agents.md); no approval round is needed between
+stages. Record actual checks and any remaining expected migration failures.
+Stages 1 and 2 change formats before Stage 3 changes their consumer. Intermediate
+commits need not be runnable or release-ready. Do not add temporary readers,
+compatibility shims, fallback engines for execution, or scaffolding to make them
+so. Later stages complete the same migration rather than separate product modes.
+
+Start with [development guidance](../development.md) and the applicable agent,
+[architecture](../policy/architecture.md), [testing](../policy/testing.md),
+[documentation](../policy/documentation.md), and [OSS](../policy/oss.md)
+policies. Use graph-first discovery. Read the current
+[configuration](../config.md), [LLM runtime](../internal/llm-runtime.md),
+[prompt registry](../internal/prompts.md), and
+[LLM integration](../integrations/openai-compatible-llm.md) contracts for the
+established behavior this migration preserves.
+
+Target the released PromptKit v0.12.0 at commit
+`4b8169da286917fde7875425bb32b799b12c6af3`, ConfigKit v0.5.0, and both
+maintained `/v3` catalogs at `v3.20260930.0`. Read the pinned
+[format reference](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit/src/tag/v0.12.0/docs/formats.md)
+and [migration guide](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit/src/tag/v0.12.0/docs/consumers/pkg-promptkit.md#migrate-from-the-previous-configuration-api).
+The sibling checkout is reference material, not a dependency replacement.
+
+### Selected Implementation Decisions
+
+- Keep Go 1.25.5, application `version: 2`, current flags, role selection,
+  application overlays, and main-file-relative path rules. Retain the
+  `profiles_dir` name and default; broaden its accepted documents as agreed.
+- Use PromptKit's catalog and owned defaults, then caller underlays for embedded
+  Audita prompts and operator directory inputs, then `Sources.Main` for
+  application backend settings. Directory inputs compose strictly within their
+  group; discovery order supplies no field precedence. Keep imports disabled.
+- Use one ConfigKit mapping for the final application source. For each
+  application backend, supply its endpoint, `concurrency_limit`,
+  `queue_capacity`, and explicit `api_key_env: null`. The null suppresses
+  lower-tier credential lookup. Leave other supported provider fields available
+  to native layering. Do not put resolved credential values in this mapping.
+- Keep selected-role registration, endpoint-match, competing-credential, and
+  required-key checks. Add explicit nonblank effective model and endpoint checks
+  for both selected roles. Valid unselected partial profiles remain permitted.
+- Preserve the adapter's complete per-call schemas, configured repairs/retries,
+  operation context, shared variables, observation, and prepare/check/run flow.
+  Operator messages can omit shared-variable references; do not append the
+  shared text unconditionally or require particular message counts or roles
+  beyond PromptKit's own format rules.
+- Use captured source inspection for consumed host configuration and message
+  paths. Keep source-relative resource resolution with PromptKit and ConfigKit;
+  Audita projects paths for its existing output collision checks.
+- Replace the old profile-reload test expectation with snapshot behavior.
+  Successful construction uses only final effective definitions. A failed
+  construction may make an embedded-only diagnostic construction to distinguish
+  asset defects from operator errors; it never executes or substitutes for the
+  requested configuration.
+- Maintained example roots are `examples/profiles/local/` and
+  `examples/profiles/service/`. Service testing profiles stay in the service
+  root. Keep the literal `temperature: 0` in examples as an explicit outbound
+  setting, and use native presence semantics without a compatibility translator.
+
+This unit is an intentional major-release migration. Exact version selection,
+release notes, tag/push, and publication timing remain release preparation under
+the [release policy](../policy/release.md). Guided recovery, new report formats,
+hot reload, extra configuration commands, and scheduling changes remain outside
+this plan. Tests should protect changed integration behavior and established
+contracts, not reproduce the libraries' entire validation matrices.
+
+## Stage 1 — Convert Embedded Prompt Definitions
+
+**Primary files:** The seven YAML files under
+`internal/prompts/assets/prompts/`.
+
+1. Wrap each existing definition beneath `prompts`, its exact current ID, and
+   the string version `v1`. Remove the old inner `id` and `version` fields.
+   Keep filenames and Audita registry identifiers unchanged; filenames are
+   asset locations rather than PromptKit identities.
+2. Preserve messages, block-scalar text, variable references, task examples,
+   output settings, and schema paths. Preserve the applicable references to
+   `HardeningPolicy`, `ProposalContract`, and `ValidationContract`. Do not edit
+   shared fragments, response schemas, or domain policies to accommodate the
+   new container format.
+3. Review each before/after definition structurally, including YAML indentation
+   inside block scalars. Do not introduce default profile selections or new
+   repair counts. The adapter continues to own the runtime output contract.
+
+**Verification and completion:** Check all seven migrated identities and
+version keys against `RegisteredMetadata`, and run `git diff --check`. Registry
+preparation tests become runnable with the new constructor in Stage 3. Commit
+the asset conversion; do not introduce an old-format reader to test it here.
+
+**Completion marker:** Stage 1 complete. All seven registered prompt assets
+use keyed prompt/version mappings; parsed definitions were structurally checked
+against their prior content, and `git diff --check` passed.
+
+## Stage 2 — Migrate Operator Profiles, Example Roots, and YAML Fixtures
+
+**Primary files:** `examples/profiles/`, the three maintained configuration
+examples, and profile-producing test fixtures in
+`internal/framework/llm/{runtime_inspection,adapter,adapter_capacity}_test.go`,
+`internal/framework/proposal_generation/adapter_integration_test.go`,
+`internal/framework/validators/llm_integration_test.go`,
+`internal/framework/runner/cancellation_test.go`, and
+`cmd/audita/main_integration_test.go`.
+
+1. Move local proposal/validation examples beneath `profiles/local/`; move the
+   four service proposal/validation and testing files beneath
+   `profiles/service/`. Convert each to `profiles: {<ID>: <fields>}` in readable
+   YAML. Keep IDs, models, positive timeouts, and controls, including explicit
+   zero temperature. No example needs a real credential or live model.
+2. Set `profiles_dir: profiles/local` in `examples/minimal-config.yml` and
+   `examples/configkit-inheritance.yml`; set `profiles_dir: profiles/service`
+   in `examples/production-config.yml`. Preserve the testing overlay's role IDs
+   and the existing ConfigKit inheritance example. Select the leaf root, since
+   recursive discovery at their common parent would still load both groups.
+3. Convert profile YAML emitted by the listed fixtures to keyed definitions.
+   Search for remaining old profile construction strings and removed
+   `base_profile` syntax, and migrate any genuine profile fixture found.
+   Do not rewrite transcript/proposal `id` fields or domain schema fixtures.
+   Keep test source names independent of profile IDs where already exercised.
+4. Keep negative tests negative for their selected behavioral reason. Give
+   cases clean temporary layouts or replace their contribution completely
+   rather than leaving an unrelated invalid definition behind for later cases.
+   Eager validation now reads unselected final definitions too. Do not remove
+   such definitions merely to simulate the old lazy loader where the test is
+   intended to exercise eager validation.
+
+**Verification and completion:** Review the six profiles, explicit root
+selections, and changed fixture text; run `git diff --check` and format touched
+Go test files. These formats become consumable in Stage 3. Commit this unit.
+Current documentation links and recipes are updated together in Stage 8.
+
+**Completion marker:** Stage 2 complete. Six maintained profile documents are
+keyed and split into separately selected local/service roots; the listed Go
+fixtures use keyed definitions. Touched Go files were formatted and
+`git diff --check` passed. Runtime tests are deferred until Stage 3 replaces
+the current consumer, as the plan allows intermediate commits not to run.
+
+## Stage 3 — Adopt the Released Source API and Selected-Role Checks
+
+**Primary files:** `go.mod`, `go.sum`,
+`internal/framework/llm/runtime.go`, and `internal/prompts/registry_test.go`.
+
+1. Upgrade with `go get gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit@v0.12.0` and
+   reconcile the module files. Verify ConfigKit stays v0.5.0, the catalog
+   dependencies become `/v3` at `v3.20260930.0`, and obsolete `/v2` requirements
+   are removed when unused. Retain the Go minimum and unrelated selections;
+   introduce no local replacements.
+2. Resolve `profiles_dir` exactly as the current runtime does. Obtain embedded
+   inputs with `pk.FilesystemInputs` and operator inputs with `pk.DirectoryInputs`.
+   An unavailable selected root is an operator error; an empty directory can
+   contribute no definitions. Do not require one profile per file, IDs matching
+   filenames, or profile-only top-level content.
+3. Construct the agreed `pk.ConfigurationSources`: two ordered caller underlays
+   for embedded and operator groups, and one highest-priority application
+   `ck.Input` whose source is the mapping specified above. Retain
+   `pk.WithSchemaFS`, the supplied HTTP client, and configured transient retries.
+   Remove old prompt/profile/backend registration options.
+4. Inspect registered prompt ID/version selections, then both selected roles.
+   Reject a selected role whose effective model or endpoint is empty or
+   whitespace-only. Retain backend registration, normalized endpoint equality,
+   nonblank effective `APIKeyEnv` rejection, and required-credential checks.
+   Preserve literal IDs; do not trim/re-key identities or require all profiles
+   to be complete. Populate the same role inspection map for both clients.
+5. Migrate the registry test engine to `FilesystemInputs` and a programmatic
+   `ProfileSource` fixture in its own tier, retaining its schema filesystem.
+   A complete endpoint/model fixture without an application backend is valid
+   for this direct library test; Audita's selected-role guard belongs in its
+   runtime tests. Keep the embedded prompt preparation assertions scoped to
+   embedded prompts.
+6. Remove the old `profileSourceFS` wrapper once unused. Source accounting is
+   completed in Stage 5. Preserve the adapter boundary; change other production
+   callers only to resolve actual API incompatibilities. Search for remaining
+   uses of removed source options and old `pk.Profile`/`pk.Backend` values.
+   Run `go mod tidy` after migrating construction callers and review its diff.
+
+**Verification and completion:** Run `go test ./internal/prompts` and the
+existing offline profile assembly, unsafe-selection, and absolute-directory
+tests in `internal/framework/llm`. Run `git diff --check` and review the module
+diff. The obsolete file-reload assertion is intentionally replaced in Stage 6;
+do not restore reload behavior to make that assertion pass. Commit the runtime
+API migration.
+
+**Completion marker:** Stage 3 complete. Runtime construction now uses the
+released PromptKit source API with the selected application mapping; module
+selections match PromptKit v0.12.0 and both `/v3` catalogs at
+`v3.20260930.0`. `go mod tidy`, prompt registry tests, offline profile
+assembly, unsafe-selection, absolute-directory tests, and `git diff --check`
+passed. Captured source accounting remains in Stage 5.
+
+## Stage 4 — Preserve Startup Failure Classification and Validate Assembly
+
+**Primary files:** `internal/framework/llm/runtime.go`,
+`internal/framework/llm/runtime_inspection_test.go`, and configuration-command
+tests in `internal/cli`. Update `internal/cli/run.go` only where the changed
+startup path needs existing exit behavior preserved.
+
+1. Treat embedded discovery failures as `AssetError`; treat operator-directory
+   discovery failures as configuration input errors. Preserve wrapped causes
+   for `errors.Is`/`errors.As` and retain configured-secret redaction at CLI
+   boundaries. Caller cancellation remains a runtime exit, not an operator
+   mistake, and should not trigger further diagnostic loading.
+2. PromptKit wraps both definition-loading and template/content failures in
+   `ErrInvalidConfig`; some materialization errors have no public source/path
+   type. Do not classify by parsing error strings or by that sentinel alone.
+   On final engine-construction failure, perform an embedded-only diagnostic
+   construction with the same embedded prompt/schema sources and library
+   defaults, excluding operator inputs and application backend mappings. If
+   that also fails, surface an `AssetError` with the asset cause; otherwise
+   return the original final-construction error as an operator/configuration
+   error. The diagnostic engine does no provider work and is never retained
+   for execution. Keep a small unexported assembly seam accepting an embedded
+   filesystem so tests can exercise asset failures without modifying shipped
+   files or creating a global test hook.
+3. Do not run this diagnostic construction as a successful-path preflight.
+   A valid final snapshot remains accepted even if an operator contribution
+   repairs an otherwise invalid lower-tier prompt. Verify that property with
+   the same small assembly test seam. This avoids strengthening upstream
+   final-value validation into mandatory validation of displaced definitions.
+4. Cover incomplete selected profiles using omitted, empty, and null model
+   contributions and a cleared selected endpoint. Exercise proposal and
+   validation selection, including omission-derived validation selection, with
+   a rejecting HTTP transport. Confirm valid unselected partial profiles are
+   accepted; malformed unselected definitions, undefined backend references,
+   and conflicting directory contributions still fail under native rules.
+5. Add focused boundary coverage that invalid operator YAML/template/resource
+   input produces configuration exit `2`, and test the asset classification
+   directly at the runtime seam. Reuse existing CLI handling of `AssetError`
+   for exit `1`; no damaged-binary subprocess fixture is needed. Cover the
+   shared `NewRuntime` validation route and preserve cancellation exit `1` in
+   configuration commands if the new error path would otherwise classify it
+   as `2`. Avoid exact complete diagnostic wording assertions.
+
+**Verification and completion:** Run targeted startup/inspection tests and
+`go test ./internal/cli`; check whitespace and commit. Preserve the original
+failure cause where available rather than flattening it to a generic error.
+
+**Completion marker:** Stage 4 complete. Embedded discovery and construction
+failures are distinguished from operator inputs through an embedded-only
+diagnostic construction; cancellation skips that diagnostic. Selected-profile
+completeness and native directory validation are covered, and both config
+commands preserve exit 1 for cancellation/assets and exit 2 for invalid
+operator YAML, templates, and resources. Targeted runtime tests,
+`go test ./internal/cli`, and `git diff --check` passed.
+
+## Stage 5 — Protect Consumed Configuration and Message Files
+
+**Primary files:** `internal/framework/llm/runtime.go` or a focused source-path
+helper in that package, `internal/cli/process.go`, runtime source-accounting
+tests, and `cmd/audita/main_integration_test.go`.
+
+1. Rename the internal `Runtime.ProfilePaths` field to `SourcePaths` and update
+   its process caller. It now covers consumed host YAML and message resources,
+   rather than profiles alone. Populate it from the successfully captured final
+   engine; do not expose source metadata as a new public output.
+2. Call `InspectConfiguration`. Index `Sources()` by source ID, and collect
+   paths with `Kind == ck.SourceKindFile`; embedded filesystem and synthetic
+   sources are not host paths. All loaded host YAML counts, including unused
+   definitions and files whose contributions were later overlaid. Deduplicate
+   paths and sort for a stable internal projection.
+3. For message resources, enumerate `Metadata().HistoricalPaths()` and retain
+   effective, nonnull paths shaped as
+   `/prompts/<id>/<version>/messages/<index>/content_file`. Use `Lookup` and the
+   effective field's origin, not an inherited destination's guessed source.
+   PromptKit successfully captures these fields only with a unique usable
+   source context. Obtain the effective scalar from `Explain(path).Effective`
+   and decode that scalar YAML into a string with the existing YAML dependency.
+   This decodes captured inspection data; it is not a second configuration
+   loader. When the contributing source is a host file, join the untrimmed
+   resource name against that source file's directory and add it to the ledger.
+   Ignore displaced references and non-host resources. Do not reread operator
+   YAML, infer IDs from filenames, or reimplement resource-root validation.
+4. Pass `SourcePaths` through existing `diagnostics.PrepareOutput` protection.
+   Leave canonicalization, symlink/hardlink checks, permitted in-place transcript
+   handling, and output initialization with their current owner. Do not protect
+   every unrelated file in the selected directory or add filesystem mutation
+   guarantees beyond the existing collision contract.
+5. Extend `TestSubprocessProfileSources` and a focused runtime case to cover an
+   arbitrarily named YAML contribution, a consumed source-relative message
+   file, and conflicting transcript/report destinations. Use a non-YAML message
+   filename, such as `instruction.md`, so directory discovery does not mistake
+   plain prompt text for a configuration document. Include an inherited message
+   reference from a different directory and a prompt ID/version with a JSON
+   Pointer escape character so source provenance and literal keys determine
+   the path. Check rejection before provider dispatch and unchanged input bytes.
+   Preserve acceptance of an unused alternate output filename; do not turn the
+   whole directory into a forbidden output location.
+
+**Verification and completion:** Run focused source-ledger tests and subprocess
+collision cases, plus `git diff --check`, then commit. Check that resource
+accounting uses the frozen snapshot and never changes the engine's source or
+resource-resolution behavior to facilitate tracking.
+
+**Completion marker:** Stage 5 complete. `Runtime.SourcePaths` now projects
+host YAML and effective source-relative message files from PromptKit's captured
+configuration inspection, using field provenance for inherited references.
+Process output protection consumes that ledger. Focused source-accounting and
+subprocess collision tests passed, including unchanged input bytes, no provider
+dispatch, JSON Pointer-escaped keys, and acceptance of an unused alternate
+output; `git diff --check` passed.
+
+## Stage 6 — Verify Operator Prompt Overrides and Captured Execution
+
+**Primary files:** `internal/framework/llm/adapter_test.go` and focused runtime
+tests. Change `adapter.go` only for an actual integration defect.
+
+1. Add a native keyed operator contribution overriding messages for an active
+   prompt/version. Use the real runtime and controlled HTTP responses to prove
+   the operator text reaches both the prepared snapshot and dispatched request.
+   One case deliberately omits shared-variable references and still succeeds;
+   do not require Audita to inject their text. A reference-bearing case renders
+   the adapter-supplied value and retains existing protection against caller
+   variables replacing the reserved shared variables.
+2. Override the prompt's definition-level output contract with another valid
+   upstream contract. Prove that Audita's per-call JSON schema and configured
+   repair budget still govern execution: a structurally invalid response is
+   repaired or exhausted as the controlled budget dictates. Domain validators
+   remain downstream. Reuse existing validator/proposal integration coverage
+   for their rules rather than weakening them to fit an operator prompt.
+3. Replace the reload portion of
+   `TestPreparedAdapterRejectsTargetDriftAndPreparationErrors`. After successful
+   construction, change a profile or message file and verify the existing
+   runtime still uses its captured settings/text. Construct a new runtime to
+   observe a valid edit or reject a newly mismatched endpoint. Keep the missing
+   prompt preparation failure case.
+4. Retain a focused test of the prepared-target check independently of reload:
+   deliberately change the test runtime's application backend endpoint after
+   construction and verify the inconsistency is blocked before dispatch. This
+   tests the existing guard, not a supported live mutation/reload feature.
+   Continue executing the same prepared handle whose details were inspected;
+   do not add another preparation or an application-side retry loop.
+
+**Verification and completion:** Run the prompt override, snapshot, and
+prepared-adapter tests. Compare semantic messages and selected targets, not old
+hash values or exact YAML formatting. Check whitespace and commit.
+
+**Completion marker:** Stage 6 complete. Native operator messages reach both
+the prepared snapshot and provider request, with and without shared-variable
+references. The adapter's per-call schema and repair budget remain effective
+under a valid operator output-contract override. Existing runtimes retain
+captured prompt/profile values after source edits, and a new runtime observes
+valid edits; the target guard and preparation failure remain covered. The
+`internal/framework/llm` tests and `git diff --check` passed.
+
+## Stage 7 — Verify Native Profiles, Backend Authority, and Resilience
+
+**Primary files:** Runtime inspection and adapter tests,
+`internal/framework/llm/adapter_capacity_test.go`, and existing framework/CLI
+integration tests where their established behavior is affected.
+
+1. Add a compact native profile inheritance fixture with literal keyed IDs
+   unrelated to filenames, multiple definitions in one file, a partial parent,
+   and a complete selected child. Verify inherited controls survive a child
+   model change and child overrides win. Reuse the metadata-facing literal-key
+   coverage from Stage 5 rather than repeating it in profile tests.
+2. Use controlled HTTP request bodies to distinguish explicit zero temperature
+   from omission and inherited-control suppression by null. Check a
+   representative recursively overlaid provider parameter and null clearing;
+   do not promise that all providers accept every valid configured zero.
+   Reuse existing deadline/cancellation coverage for unchanged outer deadlines;
+   explicit zero profile timeout must not disable the operation context.
+3. Verify an operator backend contribution can add supported provider fields,
+   while a conflicting endpoint/concurrency/queue/environment contribution
+   cannot displace the final application fields. Preserve an explicit profile
+   environment lookup as a selected-role error rather than hiding it with an
+   adapter override. Include an application backend using a catalog ID to show
+   it is allowed and its catalog credential lookup is suppressed. Use synthetic
+   environment values and local HTTP fixtures, not provider catalog endpoints.
+4. Reuse `TestRolesShareBackendCapacityAndReleaseAfterCancellation` and
+   `TestDistinctBackendsHaveIndependentCapacity`; verify the final mapped
+   limits, including zero queue capacity, still coordinate both roles and
+   remain backend-local. Strengthen a fixture with conflicting lower-tier
+   capacity only where needed to prove the new mapping wins. Keep existing
+   synchronization; do not infer admission with sleeps or add another limiter.
+5. Preserve offline selected-profile inspection and value-free application
+   explanations. Check configured secrets, endpoint strings, arbitrary provider
+   fields, and prompt text remain outside the current safe profile summary.
+   Do not replace it with a full upstream dump. Its numeric projection is not
+   proof that an omitted provider setting is sent; wire presence belongs to
+   the HTTP coverage above.
+6. Run the existing transient retry, structural repair, attempt-count,
+   observation, partial-validation, and all-model-failure subprocess cases
+   after fixture migration. Preserve their error/recovery/debug classifications,
+   cancellation, and continued output. Fix proven integration regressions;
+   do not rewrite domain outcomes or reduce budgets to obtain a passing suite.
+
+**Verification and completion:** Run
+`go test ./internal/framework/llm ./internal/framework/proposal_generation ./internal/framework/validators ./internal/framework/runner ./internal/cli ./cmd/audita`
+and `git diff --check`. Review whether each new test addresses a distinct changed
+boundary. Commit the native-profile and runtime verification unit.
+
+**Completion marker:** Stage 7 complete. Native profile inheritance, control
+presence, provider-map overlays, application backend authority, selected
+credential rejection, catalog-ID handling, shared backend capacity, and safe
+inspection behavior are covered. The six targeted packages passed, along with
+focused wire, timeout, capacity, credential, and safe-view tests; `git diff
+--check` passed.
+
+## Stage 8 — Document the Migration and Update Attribution
+
+**Primary files:** `docs/config.md`, `docs/internal/llm-runtime.md`,
+`docs/internal/prompts.md`, `docs/integrations/openai-compatible-llm.md`,
+`docs/operations.md`, `docs/internal/cli-config.md`, `README.md`, and
+`docs/oss/attribution.md`.
+
+1. Update the configuration contract for unified `profiles_dir` content, exact
+   keyed identities, directory composition, agreed tier precedence, profile
+   inheritance/presence, selected-role completeness, eager validation of all
+   final definitions, selected-root failures, and construction-time capture.
+   Replace the obsolete statement that PromptKit profiles do not gain ConfigKit
+   inheritance. Retain application overlays, defaults, and credential ownership.
+2. Include concise migration instructions in the profile section: wrap old
+   profile fields beneath `profiles/<id>`, remove inner `id`, change
+   `base_profile` to `extends`, review explicit values/nulls, and select roots
+   whose final definitions have valid backend references. Show a small keyed
+   inheritance/override snippet and link complete maintained examples. Explain
+   explicit zero temperature versus omitted or null controls and link upstream
+   for the full field table. State that this ships as an Audita major migration;
+   do not invent an exact release version or automatic file conversion.
+3. Document intentional prompt overrides and optional shared-variable references.
+   Supplying shared variables does not inject omitted text, while per-call
+   schemas and domain validators remain enforced. Internal prompt documentation
+   distinguishes shipped asset instructions from operator-effective messages;
+   no prompt-quality rewrite or new global prompt-policy requirement is added.
+4. Describe layered runtime assembly, source accounting, snapshot use, and
+   startup classification in their internal owner. Update the pinned PromptKit
+   consumer link in the LLM integration contract. Expand operations' loaded
+   source description to include consumed operator message files; keep physical
+   output/collision rules with operations and diagnostics.
+5. Repair example navigation for separate local/service roots, especially the
+   README's local-profile link. Update validation recipes to use the maintained
+   config files' explicit roots and keep the service testing overlay workflow.
+   Review other affected links without rewriting historical release notes.
+6. Update the PromptKit and both catalog attribution entries to selected versions
+   and exact commit-pinned source/notice URLs. Resolve catalog tag commits from
+   the selected module origins or authoritative upstream refs, not annotated
+   tag object IDs. Check the releases' COPYRIGHT/LICENSE files and retain the
+   applicable unchanged local LGPL/GPL and MIT texts. Keep the existing House
+   Format; no new license selection, policy rewrite, or attribution inventory
+   is needed. Review `go.mod`/`go.sum` against those entries.
+
+**Verification and completion:** Check affected local links/anchors, format
+examples against the implemented loader, verify source revisions/notices, and
+run `git diff --check`. Commit the documentation and attribution unit.
+
+**Completion marker:** Stage 8 complete. Configuration, runtime, prompt,
+integration, operations, contributor, and README guidance now reflects native
+PromptKit layering, migration, presence, snapshot, and separate example-root
+behavior. Attribution matches PromptKit v0.12.0 and both v3 catalog module
+origins and notices. Local links/anchors and `git diff --check` passed.
+
+## Stage 9 — Validate the Integrated End State and Close the Plan
+
+**Primary files:** This plan and the feature roadmap; correct an implementation
+file only if the final checks reveal an actual gap.
+
+1. Verify the full roadmap acceptance criteria against the landed code and the
+   distinct tests from these stages. Review for unintended requirements:
+   profile-only filtering, mandatory shared text in operator messages,
+   filename-derived IDs, complete unselected profiles, catalog ID bans,
+   successful-path asset preflights, compatibility readers, and new output
+   guarantees are not part of the accepted target.
+2. Run `go build -o ./bin/audita ./cmd/audita` and `go test ./...`. Keep the
+   generated binary out of commits. Reuse successful checks on unchanged
+   content; rerun checks affected by any corrective code changes.
+3. Validate the maintained examples offline using the built binary:
+
+   ```sh
+   ./bin/audita config validate --config examples/minimal-config.yml
+   ./bin/audita config validate --config examples/configkit-inheritance.yml
+   AUDITA_SERVICE_KEY=synthetic-example ./bin/audita config validate --config examples/production-config.yml
+   AUDITA_SERVICE_KEY=synthetic-example ./bin/audita config validate --config examples/production-config.yml --overlay testing
+   ./bin/audita config print-effective --config examples/minimal-config.yml --view profiles
+   ./bin/audita config print-effective --config examples/configkit-inheritance.yml --view explain
+   ```
+
+   Confirm local/service roots and testing selections work without provider
+   dispatch. Check safe views exclude resolved secrets and preserve the
+   established explanation fields. Do not call a model to validate examples.
+4. Check the selected dependency graph, attribution, affected links, and final
+   diff. Run `git diff --check`. Confirm only the released modules are used and
+   no obsolete `/v2` catalog or removed construction API remains in active code.
+   Historical release documents and historical roadmap links may retain old
+   versions as accurate records.
+5. Mark this plan and the feature roadmap complete only after the full target
+   passes. Record the tested implementation revision and checks accurately;
+   distinguish a subsequent documentation-only completion commit. Commit the
+   completion documentation and report remaining work, if any. Do not select
+   a release number, publish, tag, push, poll CI, or add permanent release gates.
+
+**Completion marker:** Stage 9 complete. The tested implementation revision is
+`5525fe8`; the preceding documentation migration commit is `9bcf183`, and this
+roadmap closure is documentation-only. At `9bcf183`, the application built,
+`go test ./...` passed, all six maintained example commands passed offline,
+`go mod verify` passed, the selected module graph contained PromptKit v0.12.0
+and both `/v3` catalogs at `v3.20260930.0` with no `/v2` catalogs, and
+`git diff --check` passed. The active Go/module scan found no removed PromptKit
+construction options.
+
+**End state:** Native PromptKit configuration and catalogs are adopted,
+operator overrides and captured resources work through the real runtime,
+application backend/domain ownership and resilience remain effective, and
+maintained examples and migration documentation match the implementation.
+No implementation-blocking decisions remain; exact major-release numbering
+and publication timing remain outside this implementation unit.

+# PromptKit v0.12.0 Adoption Roadmap
+
+**Last updated:** 2026-10-04
+
+**Status:** Complete. The implementation plan records the ordered work and
+verification details.
+
+## Purpose and Baseline
+
+Adopt PromptKit v0.12.0 now that the independent
+[ConfigKit v0.5.0 upgrade](configkit.md) is complete. Align Audita with the
+libraries' native configuration model while retaining Audita's domain rules,
+application-owned backend settings, and resilient processing workflow.
+
+At reviewed Audita revision `8cba751835ba9faad340e933a3cfbb59c03924fd`,
+[go.mod](../../go.mod) selects ConfigKit v0.5.0 and PromptKit v0.11.2, with
+OpenRouter and Rakestrawhome `/v2` catalogs at `v2.20260926.0`. Go 1.25.5
+remains the application minimum. The implemented contracts belong to
+[configuration](../config.md), the
+[LLM integration](../integrations/openai-compatible-llm.md), and the
+[LLM runtime](../internal/llm-runtime.md).
+
+`internal/framework/llm.NewRuntime` currently assembles one engine using the
+old prompt/profile filesystem options and programmatic backend registration.
+Audita embeds seven prompt definitions and separate response schemas. Operators
+select proposal and validation profiles from `profiles_dir`; the effective
+backend must be registered in application configuration, its endpoint must
+match, and its credential comes from Audita's ConfigKit-resolved settings.
+Successful profile reads are recorded to protect those sources from output
+collisions. Both roles share the same engine's backend admission controls.
+
+The reviewed upstream release is
+[PromptKit v0.12.0](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit/src/tag/v0.12.0/docs/releases/v0.12.0.md),
+commit `4b8169da286917fde7875425bb32b799b12c6af3`. It depends on ConfigKit
+v0.5.0 and both maintained `/v3` catalog modules at `v3.20260930.0`. This is an
+intentional incompatible pre-1.0 minor release: it replaces construction and
+configuration APIs, rather than simply updating provider data. PromptKit's
+[format reference](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit/src/tag/v0.12.0/docs/formats.md)
+and [consumer migration guide](https://gitea.maximumdirect.net/eric/promptkit/src/tag/v0.12.0/docs/consumers/pkg-promptkit.md#migrate-from-the-previous-configuration-api)
+own the upstream details.
+
+## Target End State
+
+- Audita imports released PromptKit v0.12.0 and its `/v3` catalogs, retaining
+  ConfigKit v0.5.0 and using no local dependency replacement.
+- The runtime uses `Config.Sources` and native ConfigKit source groups.
+  PromptKit owns composition, inheritance, presence, final-definition
+  validation, prompt capture, and execution. Audita does not translate old
+  profiles or implement a second YAML loader or inheritance resolver.
+- Embedded prompts and maintained operator profiles use keyed `prompts` and
+  `profiles` mappings. Existing prompt IDs, versions, role selections,
+  instructions, and response-schema associations remain the adoption baseline.
+  The application configuration schema, overlay selection, CLI interface, and
+  main-file-relative `profiles_dir` resolution remain in place.
+- Native profile `extends`, field-presence semantics, and source-relative
+  resource rules apply. Documents can contain multiple definitions, and IDs
+  come from mapping keys rather than filenames. The existing `profiles_dir`
+  accepts native unified PromptKit documents containing profiles, backends,
+  and prompts, including intentional operator prompt overrides.
+- Application backend endpoints, configured concurrency and queue capacity,
+  and credential ownership remain authoritative for selected roles. Preserve
+  the existing profile-selection and prepared-target checks; do not introduce
+  a second admission controller or implicit provider credential lookup.
+- A runtime uses one captured configuration snapshot for both roles. Each CLI
+  invocation constructs a new engine; hot reload is not part of this feature.
+  Existing inspection remains offline and safe, and consumed host sources
+  remain protected from output collisions.
+- PromptKit retains responsibility for transport retries, schema repair,
+  observation, and prepared execution. Preserve Audita's configured retry and
+  repair budgets, operation deadlines, cancellation, partial-success behavior,
+  error/recovery reporting, and debug selection.
+
+## Configuration Assembly and Ownership
+
+Replace removed `WithPromptFS`, `WithProfileFS`, and `WithBackend` usage with
+the released source API. Discover embedded YAML through `FilesystemInputs` and
+operator YAML through `DirectoryInputs`, with explicit caller tiers. Keep the
+retained schema filesystem integration and HTTP client configuration.
+Use the helpers' default-disabled imports; this adoption does not require new
+application source-selection flags or operator underlay tiers.
+
+PromptKit supplies catalog definitions first and its own defaults next. Caller
+tiers then overlay in their supplied order, followed by an optional highest
+priority main input. Files within one directory group compose strictly;
+alphabetical filenames do not establish override precedence. Use separate
+tiers for genuine priority differences rather than manufacturing file-order
+semantics.
+
+Represent application backend settings as a final programmatic source, using
+`BackendSource` or ConfigKit mappings where explicit null is needed. Preserve
+configured zero queue capacity as an explicit value. Suppress backend-derived
+credential environment lookup explicitly where catalog layering would otherwise
+introduce it; omission alone can retain a lower-tier value. Continue detecting
+competing effective profile credential lookups rather than silently clearing
+operator profile fields. A missing backend credential remains valid for an
+unauthenticated local service unless the selected profile requires a key.
+
+Catalog backend IDs are no longer reserved upstream. Audita should not invent a
+new reservation rule. Catalog selection alone must not bypass application
+registration, endpoint, capacity, or credential requirements. Catalog profile
+contents may evolve; this upgrade does not promise fixed model choices or live
+provider availability.
+
+The accepted caller order is embedded Audita prompts, operator definitions,
+then application backend settings. The existing `profiles_dir` accepts native
+unified PromptKit documents containing profiles, backends, and prompts. Keep
+the name and path setting for continuity, and document its broader accepted
+content. This follows the upstream source API without a parallel parser or
+top-level filtering. Profiles, provider defaults, and intentional prompt
+overrides use the same native composition model.
+
+Audita continues to ship its domain prompts, enforce its selected-backend
+requirements, and supply its per-call schemas. Operator prompt overrides are
+an accepted capability of this adoption; documentation, source accounting,
+and focused behavioral coverage should reflect them.
+
+## Work Required
+
+### Runtime Construction and Source Accounting
+
+Migrate `internal/framework/llm/runtime.go` to layered construction and retain
+the role-bound adapter boundary. Review startup inspection and failure
+classification because upstream now validates all final definitions, including
+unused ones, during engine construction. Distinguish invalid operator inputs
+from broken embedded assets under the existing
+[CLI exit contract](../cli.md); do not treat every construction failure as an
+operator error merely because validation moved earlier.
+
+Upstream permits partial profiles and defers endpoint/model completeness until
+request overrides are applied. Audita supplies no model override, so explicitly
+validate that both selected role profiles have a nonblank model and a complete
+effective endpoint during offline configuration validation and runtime setup.
+Retain the application-backend, endpoint-match, and credential checks. Do not
+rely on engine construction or profile inspection alone to establish selected
+profile completeness. Unselected partial profiles remain permitted if they
+satisfy upstream definition validation; they need not be runnable.
+
+Adapt source accounting to the new discovery/capture boundary. The existing
+recording filesystem wrapper may be replaceable with discovered inputs or
+upstream source metadata. Protect the host sources actually consumed by the
+runtime, including inherited and differently named definitions, without
+guessing filenames from selected profile IDs. Account for consumed operator
+message files as well. Keep this proportionate to the existing collision
+contract; do not add filesystem concurrency or power-loss guarantees.
+
+Keep the existing safe effective-profile summaries and application explanations.
+Use upstream metadata where useful, but do not expose the full
+`InspectConfiguration` snapshot as ordinary CLI or report output: prompt text
+and arbitrary provider fields are outside those summaries' current scope.
+
+### Prompt Assets, Profiles, and Presence Semantics
+
+Move each of the seven files in `internal/prompts/assets/prompts` to the keyed
+prompt/version format. Keep the shared instruction fragments and the complete
+per-call output contracts owned by Audita. This migration does not authorize
+another prompt-quality rewrite or changes to domain validators.
+
+The adapter supplies `HardeningPolicy`, `ProposalContract`, and
+`ValidationContract` as template variables. Embedded prompts retain their
+references to the applicable variables. Operator message overrides control
+whether those variables are rendered; supplying a variable does not inject its
+text into a template that omits it. Preserve this native override behavior and
+document the distinction. Per-call schemas and domain validation remain enforced
+regardless of those references. Unconditional shared-instruction injection is
+outside this adoption.
+
+Convert the six maintained profiles in `examples/profiles` and test-generated
+profile/prompt fixtures to the new format. Convert any old `base_profile`
+usage to `extends`, and remove embedded identities. Migrate tests that construct
+engines using removed options or old `Profile`/`Backend` values.
+
+Reorganize the maintained profiles into separately selected local and service
+directory roots. The current shared directory includes profiles referring to
+backends absent from each example's application configuration; eager validation
+would reject those unselected definitions after a format-only conversion.
+Update `profiles_dir` in `examples/minimal-config.yml`,
+`examples/production-config.yml`, and `examples/configkit-inheritance.yml` to
+select the appropriate root. Keep the service testing profiles in the service
+root so the testing overlay remains usable. Discovery is recursive: placing
+both groups beneath a common selected root does not isolate them. Update example
+links and validation recipes to match the final layout.
+
+Review presence deliberately rather than mechanically preserving old serialized
+values. In particular, explicit zero temperature, top-p, or max-tokens now means
+an outbound zero; zero timeout disables PromptKit's generation deadline while
+Audita's outer operation deadline still applies. Omission, blank values, and
+null have field-specific meanings. Empty provider maps do not erase inherited
+entries, and changing model/backend does not erase unrelated explicit settings.
+
+Use the native meanings without a compatibility shim. Retaining the examples'
+literal `temperature: 0` as an explicit provider setting is recommended; explain
+that omitting the field requests an unspecified value, and null suppresses an
+inherited control. Do not automatically turn every existing zero into omission
+or every omission into a zero. Demonstrate representative profile inheritance
+without requiring every maintained example to use it.
+
+### Documentation, Migration, and Attribution
+
+Update the profile section of `docs/config.md` and maintained examples when the
+implementation lands. Explain the broader accepted content of `profiles_dir`,
+operator prompt overrides, their precedence and optional use of shared instruction
+variables, keyed identities, composition versus precedence, profile inheritance,
+presence, eager final-definition validation, selected-root errors, and captured
+configuration. Link to the pinned
+upstream reference for generic field semantics rather than reproducing its
+entire contract.
+
+Include operator migration guidance for old profile documents and behaviorally
+significant zeros/nulls. This is a deliberate format migration, not an automatic
+upgrade of existing installation files. Preserve supported application overlays,
+including the cheaper/faster testing-profile workflow.
+
+Update the pinned consumer link in `docs/integrations/openai-compatible-llm.md`,
+construction/source-accounting descriptions in `docs/internal/llm-runtime.md`,
+and asset-format guidance in `docs/internal/prompts.md`. Update other affected
+references only where implemented behavior changes.
+
+Update `go.mod`, `go.sum`, and `docs/oss/attribution.md` for PromptKit and the two
+catalog modules. Verify exact selected source revisions and upstream notices
+under the [OSS policy](../policy/oss.md); retain the applicable LGPL/GPL and MIT
+texts rather than duplicating unchanged license documents. Dependency adoption
+does not change Audita's application license.
+
+Plan this adoption for an Audita major release under the
+[release policy](../policy/release.md#versioning-and-compatibility). The public
+profile format changes incompatibly and no compatibility loader is planned;
+PromptKit's own pre-1.0 minor version does not change Audita's classification.
+The exact version and publication timing remain deferred to release preparation.
+
+## Verification and Completion
+
+Use existing offline tests as the starting point. Update fixtures intentionally,
+and add focused behavioral coverage where the source migration creates a
+distinct risk. Completion means:
+
+- The released dependency set builds and the complete Audita test suite passes.
+- All registered embedded prompts load and render from keyed assets, retaining
+  their applicable shared-instruction references and established per-call schemas.
+- Offline configuration validation rejects incomplete selected profiles, including
+  a missing or blank model, while accepting valid unselected partial profiles.
+- Selected roles use final application backend settings and direct resolved
+  credentials; both roles still share configured capacity, including explicit
+  zero queue capacity. Catalog layering does not introduce a competing lookup.
+- Representative keyed profiles, native inheritance, and explicit presence work
+  through the real runtime. Directory conflicts and invalid final definitions
+  produce useful startup errors without filename-derived identity assumptions.
+- Operator prompt and backend contributions follow the accepted source order;
+  prompt overrides render, including when their messages omit shared-instruction
+  variables, while Audita retains its per-call schemas, domain validation, and
+  authoritative application backend settings.
+- Source collision protection, safe inspection, and operator-versus-asset error
+  classification remain effective at the changed construction boundary.
+- Representative prepared execution, schema repair, transient retry, and
+  partial-success tests retain their existing behavior. Reuse adequate coverage
+  rather than duplicating PromptKit's complete upstream test matrix.
+- Local, service, testing-overlay, and ConfigKit inheritance examples validate
+  offline using their separately selected profile roots. Canonical documentation
+  describes the migrated format, shared-instruction behavior, and major-release
+  migration; attribution identifies the selected library sources accurately.
+
+No live provider calls, new release gates, or CI-success dependency are needed
+to establish adoption. Guided domain recovery and the other work recorded in
+[future.md](future.md) remain separate features. Do not expand this upgrade into
+new report formats, pipeline scheduling, or general configuration-inspection
+commands. The [implementation plan](implementation.md) owns execution steps
+and their verification.
+
+## Completion Record
+
+Implementation code is recorded through revision `5525fe8`; documentation was
+updated in `9bcf183`, and the final roadmap closure is documentation-only. At

-# Audita Troubleshooting
-
-## Scope
-
-This guide lists recurring implemented failure modes for `audita process` and `audita config`.
-
-For each entry: symptom, likely cause, inspect, and fix.
-
-## Config Validation Fails
-
-Symptom:
-- `audita config validate --config <path>` exits nonzero.
-
-Likely causes:
-- missing `version`;
-- unsupported config version;
-- unknown YAML field;
-- unsupported module key or output schema;
-- invalid numeric/range/concurrency/retention values.
-
-Inspect:
-1. rerun `audita config validate --config <path>` and read stderr.
-2. if needed, inspect effective config with `audita config print-effective --config <path>`.
-
-Fix:
-- set `version: 1`;
-- remove unknown fields;
-- use supported module keys and output schemas (`bare-segments`, `audita-v1`);
-- correct invalid values to satisfy validation constraints.
-
-## Config File Resolution Errors
-
-Symptom:
-- `audita process` fails before processing with config-related errors like `config file not found`.
-
-Likely causes:
-- `--config` points to a missing path;
-- `AUDITA_CONFIG` points to a missing path;
-- unreadable config path.
-
-Inspect:
-1. confirm `--config` or `AUDITA_CONFIG` path exists;
-2. run `audita config validate --config <path>` directly.
-
-Fix:
-- correct the path or unset invalid `AUDITA_CONFIG`;
-- fix permissions for the config file.
-
-## Transcript or Glossary Schema Errors
-
-Symptom:
-- stderr includes `transcript_schema` or `glossary_schema` and run exits nonzero.
-
-Likely causes:
-- transcript is not valid JSON or has invalid segment fields;
-- glossary is not valid YAML or has missing required glossary entry fields.
-
-Inspect:
-1. check stderr for parser/validation details;
-2. if diagnostics were created, inspect `error.log` and run `report.json` (`error_phase`);
-3. inspect `source-transcript.json` and `source-transcript-parsed.json` in the run directory.
-
-Fix:
-- correct transcript JSON shape/content;
-- correct glossary YAML shape/content and required entry fields;
-- rerun validation with known-good tiny examples for comparison:
-  - `examples/tiny-transcript.json`
-  - `examples/tiny-glossary.yaml`
-
-## LLM Runtime/Backend Failures
-
-Symptom:
-- stderr includes `runner_execution` (or backend timeout/error details) and nonzero exit.
-
-Likely causes:
-- unreachable/failed LLM endpoint;
-- timeout/cancellation;
-- runtime module execution failure.
-
-Inspect:
-1. inspect stderr for backend message details;
-2. inspect run `report.json` (`error_phase`, `module_results`);
-3. inspect diagnostics payloads and `error.log`.
-
-Fix:
-- verify model/base URL/API key settings;
-- increase timeout if needed;
-- rerun with `--work-dir-retention always` while debugging.
-
-## Output File Write Failure
-
-Symptom:
-- stderr includes `failed to write output file` and run exits nonzero.
-
-Likely causes:
-- output path directory missing;
-- insufficient filesystem permissions;
-- invalid output target path.
-
-Inspect:
-1. check `--output` target directory exists and is writable;
-2. inspect run diagnostics `error.log` and report `error_phase`.
-
-Fix:
-- write to a valid writable path;
-- create missing directories;
-- adjust permissions.
-
-## Report File Write Failure
-
-Symptom:
-- stderr includes `failed to write report JSON file` and run exits nonzero.
-
-Likely causes:
-- invalid or unwritable `--report-json` target path.
-
-Inspect:
-1. verify parent directory exists and is writable;
-2. inspect diagnostics `error.log` for `report_write` context.
-
-Fix:
-- choose a writable report path;
-- create missing directories;
-- rerun.
-
-## Unsupported Output Schema
-
-Symptom:
-- stderr includes `unsupported output schema` and run exits nonzero.
-
-Likely causes:
-- unsupported `--output-schema` value;
-- unsupported `output.schema` in config.
-
-Inspect:
-1. check CLI/config schema key;
-2. run `audita config validate --config <path>` when config is involved.
-
-Fix:
-- use `bare-segments` or `audita-v1`.
-
-## Diagnostics Directory Lookup
-
-Symptom:
-- run fails and you need artifacts for debugging.
-
-Inspect:
-1. read stderr for `audita process: diagnostics: <run-dir>`;
-2. open `<run-dir>/report.json` and `<run-dir>/error.log`;
-3. use diagnostics paths embedded in report metadata for artifact lookup.
-
-Fix:
-- rerun with `--work-dir-retention always` to preserve run directories during investigation.
