Project Tiny Context Harness

Project Tiny Context Harness 0.6.1 is the current public release line under the renamed npm package:

npm install -D project-tiny-context-harness@latest
npx --yes --package project-tiny-context-harness@latest ty-context init
make validate-context

Update mode: sync-only. After updating the package, run:

npx --yes --package project-tiny-context-harness@latest ty-context upgrade --check
npx --yes --package project-tiny-context-harness@latest ty-context upgrade

This release mode means no new release migration is expected. Direct sync is an allowed shortcut only when you explicitly want managed-asset refresh without upgrade diagnostics:

npx --yes --package project-tiny-context-harness@latest ty-context sync

Sync does not run migrations. Upgrade plans report safe_pending, manual_required and blocked.

Publishing a new npm version does not automatically migrate existing repositories. Users receive new upgrade behavior only when they run the newly published CLI through ty-context upgrade, ty-context sync or another @latest package invocation.

What Changed

• Publishes [email protected] with the synchronized package assets and CLI build.
• Expands /source-plan-authoring to refine a near-complete plan or synthesize a sparse brief plus mixed notes, product/technical documents, screenshots, diagrams and other attachments.
• Adds complete input accounting, reference-versus-exact interpretation and control-level UI coverage across surfaces, regions, controls, states, feedback and accessibility.
• Records explicitly delegated low-impact/reversible elaboration as traceable Source while keeping permissions, destructive behavior, pricing, retention, security policy and other high-impact choices as decision_required.
• Keeps /long-task-workflow compatible with delegated Source provenance without adding a new Claim kind, Contract disposition, authority layer or permission to extend the delegation.
• Keeps the Minimal Context boundary explicit: AGENTS.md is the startup router, project_context/** keeps durable recovery facts, and validate-context checks recoverability.
• Makes package updates explicit through release update modes: sync-only, upgrade-required, manual-required.
• Keeps the old stage-based Tiny Context workflow out of the default package surface.

Boundary

This release does not claim benchmark-proven speedups, production adoption, awards, or replacement of tests, CI, review, specs or project management. It packages the smaller recovery surface: keep the memory, drop the ceremony.
