versioning:
  scheme: unversioned paths; build-stamped document versions
  current_version: >-
    OpenAPI info.version "0.2+820f7aa0ad7a" (semver + git build metadata) for the public API; "0.1.0" for the
    read-surfaces spec; MCP serverInfo.version 1.4.2 (registry 1.4.2, npm stdio 0.2.2); agent card version 1.1.0;
    Terms of Service version 1.1 (13 September 2026); privacy notice version 1.2 (14 September 2026);
    measurement licence version 2.0 (28 August 2026).

  policy_published: false
  note: >-
    No /v1 segment and no version header. The five surfaces each carry their own version number and none of
    them share one. The provider's stated versioning discipline is "corrections appended, never edited"
    (api/methodology doctrine) — change is recorded in a dated corrections ledger rather than in a versioning
    policy.
deprecation:
  policy_published: false
  sunset_header: false
  deprecation_header: false
  rfc8594: false
  deprecated_operations: []
  contract_lifecycle_markers:
    QUARANTINED_PRE_RELEASE: 19
    NOT_IMPLEMENTED: 13
    DOOR_CLOSED: 1
    METHOD_NOT_ALLOWED: 1
    note: >-
      Zero operations carry deprecated: true, but 34 of 141 carry a provider extension x-csoai-lifecycle and
      answer only 503 ("retired until its response can be derived from current evidence") or 501 (capability
      NOT_IMPLEMENTED). Observed live: GET /api/prod-readiness → 503 {"code":"RETIRED"} (a RETIRED body code; the contract marks such operations QUARANTINED_PRE_RELEASE), GET /api/include → 501
      {"state":"NOT_IMPLEMENTED"}, GET /api/sandbox → declared 503 QUARANTINED_PRE_RELEASE. The x402 catalog
      also carries a quarantined[] block (paid witness issuance) with a lifecycle QUARANTINED_PRE_RELEASE.
      This is a real, machine-readable lifecycle signal inside the contract, but there is no published
      deprecation POLICY (no notice period, no Sunset header), so no Deprecation pointer is emitted.
  documented_retirements:
  - what: 'mill-tool `measure` (MCP)'
    evidence: '/.well-known/mcp.json note: "mill-tool `measure` is dropped"; the provider''s own /api/mcp probe registry still lists it from 2026-08-27.'
  - what: 'witness_hash (MCP) / paid witness issuance (x402)'
    evidence: 'server card: "witness_hash is quarantined on HTTP"; x402.json quarantined[]: paid witness issuance disabled until a release gate verifies leaf → signed root → sidecar → Rekor → OpenTimestamps.'
  - what: 'Legacy docs pages (/docs, /security, /legal/dpa)'
    evidence: 'Each returns 200 with a "temporarily withdrawn" notice: generated/prototype pages were removed from the public decision path "until each claim has a source, scope, date, and evidence state".'

  note: >-
    The dated change record is a CORRECTIONS ledger (58 entries, RSS + Atom + JSON, each with id, date,
    what_was_wrong, how_caught, fix/what_changed, status) plus /api/press.json (a derived 7-day window). It is a
    real, machine-readable, dated log; it records defects and fixes rather than feature releases.
observed_change_cadence:
  window: '2026-08-16 to 2026-09-17'
  evidence:
  - 'MCP Registry: 11 versions of io.github.CSOAI-ORG/gspc (1.0.0 2026-08-16 → 1.4.2 2026-09-14), remote URL moved from a workers.dev host and /api/assess to https://councilof.ai/mcp on 2026-08-29.'
  - 'npm csoai-gspc-mcp: 5 versions 2026-08-28 → 2026-09-13.'
  - 'PyPI csoai-gspc: date-stamped releases 2026-09-05 → 2026-09-15 (uploaded 2026-09-17).'
  - 'Corrections ledger: 11 entries in the 7 days to 2026-09-17 (press.json corrections_this_window).'
  note: A very actively changing surface — several releases a week across MCP, npm, PyPI and the ledger.
