Step 7 of strategy/01-git-excision.md, the companions. The agent guide bumps to v11: the Git section teaches repo-resident etiquette alone (stage only your own paths, commit your own changes, leave app-maintained files to the app) — existing boards heal to the new text on next open. README re-anchors: the four git feature bullets out, tiers say the complete Mac experience is free, and one bullet states the format's git-friendliness promise. The changelog drops the never-shipped git entries. DESIGN re-rules: 06 retired with Undo routing migrated to 13 (now the sole substrate's doc, seam kept open), 07 retired as written pending the ops-service workstream, 14 retired as superseded record, 12 carries the second pivot note, the index reflects all of it; the charter gets a pointer note (the anchors' full re-ruling stays with the user). InertGitTests renames to GitAgnosticStorageTests — the excision restores its original claim app-wide. And the sweep: ~70 comment sites across 36 files adjudicated against the keeper list, every present-tense description of the excised machinery made past tense or repointed, keepers untouched. 2,707 tests green.

Release & Distribution Strategy
Long-term strategy work for Lanework's release, distribution, and business model: licensing, monetization, openness, marketing, and goals. Sibling to research/ (the competitive-landscape corpus, which this directory draws on) but different in kind — research/ gathers evidence about the market; strategy/ turns evidence into positions, decisions, and plans for Lanework specifically.
Documents
- 00-charter.md — the framing document: strategic goal, the two tier anchors, what is already ruled, the decision surface, the tensions to resolve, and the research agenda (start here)
- 01-git-excision.md — ruled 2026-08-08: excise — the plan for removing app-managed git entirely: keepers, harvest, delete list, sequencing, deferred successors, handoff
Workstream documents are added as they happen, numbered in sequence.
Conventions
- Same conventions as
research/: each document opens with a scope note and a dated line; prose is unwrapped — one line per paragraph or list item. - A position is a working stance open to revision; a ruling is a decision recorded in DESIGN/ or RELEASE.md and stands unless explicitly re-ruled. Strategy documents may propose re-rulings but never silently contradict one.
