DonchitosandClaude Opus 5 d05699707f Release 1.1.0 — one config file, and a process weight you choose
`project.yaml` at the repo root is now the single source of truth for a
project's configuration, replacing `production/stage.txt`,
`production/review-mode.txt` and `.claude/docs/technical-preferences.md` (all
three still read as a fallback; nothing is force-deleted).

**`modes.rigor` — one question instead of six.** `minimal`, `standard` or
`full` fronts six knobs: `modes.workflow`, `docs.density`, `qa.level`,
`modes.story_granularity`, `modes.review_mode` and `team.size`. It defaults to
`minimal`, which is a change from 1.0's behaviour: the heavier tier was
measured costing several times more to reach working code without producing a
better result, and returning nothing when a fresh developer inherited the
project. Pin `modes.rigor: standard` to keep 1.0's process level.

Also in this release:

- `/settings` to view or change any setting, and `project.local.yaml` for
  per-developer preferences that should not be committed.
- `system_overrides` to hold one system to a higher standard than the rest of
  the project, and `testing.strict` to set per test type whether missing
  evidence blocks a story or warns.
- A story that changes anything the player sees is not closed until the game
  has been launched, observed, and a screenshot retained in
  `production/qa/evidence/`. A parse check is not a run. This holds at every
  rigor level, including `minimal`, where automated tests are waived but the
  look is not.
- The code root is engine-specific and enforced as such: Godot `src/`, Unity
  `Assets/`, Unreal `Source/<Module>/`. Two of the three will not build a
  project laid out any other way.
- Migration tooling for existing projects: `.claude/scripts/migrate-v1-config.sh`
  converts a 1.0 layout, non-destructively by default, with a report to review
  before `--finalize` deletes anything.
- Ask-before-write holds regardless of personal automation settings.

# Godot Engine — Version Reference
| Field | Value |
|-------|-------|
| **Engine Version** | Godot 4.6 |
| **Installed at pin time** | NOT DETERMINED — `/setup-engine` §3 probes the installed editor and records the result here. |
| **Release Date** | January 2026 |
| **Project Pinned** | 2026-02-12 |
| **Last Docs Verified** | 2026-02-12 |
| **LLM Knowledge Cutoff** | May 2025 |
## Knowledge Gap Warning
The LLM's training data likely covers Godot up to ~4.3. Versions 4.4, 4.5,
and 4.6 introduced significant changes that the model does NOT know about.
Always cross-reference this directory before suggesting Godot API calls.
## Installed-Version Gap Warning
The warning above is one-directional — it covers the **model** knowing less than
this pin. The reverse gap is real and `/setup-engine` §3 creates it deliberately
("pin the newer one and upgrade later"): this reference can sit **ahead of the
installed editor**, and an agent citing it correctly then emits APIs that do not
compile locally. **Check `Installed at pin time` above before trusting a
version-qualified claim** — `NOT DETERMINED` means the gap is unknown, not absent.
## Post-Cutoff Version Timeline
| Version | Release | Risk Level | Key Theme |
|---------|---------|------------|-----------|
| 4.4 | ~Mid 2025 | MEDIUM | Jolt physics option, FileAccess return types, shader texture type changes |
| 4.5 | ~Late 2025 | HIGH | Accessibility (AccessKit), variadic args, @abstract, shader baker, SMAA |
| 4.6 | Jan 2026 | HIGH | Jolt default, glow rework, D3D12 default on Windows, IK restored |
