 ## Contributing
 
-1. Branch from `development`, not `main`
-2. Use topic branches: `feature/<name>`, `fix/<name>`, `bugfix/<name>`
-3. Open a PR to `development` with a clear title and description
-4. Merge via squash after review
-5. Changes flow to `main` via a release PR
+Read the guides in `workflow/` before submitting changes:
 
-See the [SDLC repo](https://github.com/CognitiveOS-Project/sdlc) for the full contribution guide, code review standards, and testing strategy.
+- [`workflow/contribution-guide.md`](workflow/contribution-guide.md) — full contribution process
+- [`workflow/code-review.md`](workflow/code-review.md) — review checklist and expectations
+- [`workflow/testing.md`](workflow/testing.md) — testing strategy across all layers
+- [`workflow/ci-cd.md`](workflow/ci-cd.md) — CI/CD pipeline definitions
+
+All repos in the CognitiveOS project follow topic-branch flow: branch from `development`, PR to `development`, squash merge, then release PR to `main`.

+## Coordinated Release (Cross-Repo)
+
+At the end of a release cycle, all 13 repos must be tagged at the same SemVer version. Use the `release-tag.sh` script:
+
+```bash
+scripts/release-tag.sh v1.0.0-alpha "v1.0.0-alpha — System foundations complete"
+```
+
+The script:
+- Clones each repo on demand into a persistent cache directory
+- Creates **annotated tags** (compliant with release-strategy.md)
+- Skips repos where the tag already exists (idempotent)
+- Reports per-repo status in a summary table
+- Exits non-zero if any repo fails

Subject: [PATCH 02/11] feat: update Phase 3 inference engine plan for CGo
 bridge (#16)

Replace llama-cli subprocess tasks with CGo bridge tasks:
- Vendor llama.cpp submodule, bridge.go, cgobackend.go, loadopts.go
- cmake + gcc toolchain in Dockerfile
- Fix cograw bugs and replace exec.Command with CGo
- Phase 5 cleanup: remove CLIBackend and --backend cli flag

-- `POST /api/generate` produces coherent completions
+- Raw Model loads from `/cognitiveos/models/raw/raw-model.gguf` via CGo bridge (no subprocess)
+- `POST /api/generate` produces coherent completions via CGo
 - Resource usage reported correctly in `/cognitiveos/status`
 - Inference engine communicates with cognitiveosd for load/unload
+- `CLIBackend` and `--backend cli` flag removed (Phase 5)
+- `--backend` defaults to `"cgo"` in production (CGO_ENABLED=1) and `"mock"` when CGO_ENABLED=0

Subject: [PATCH 04/11] feat: add healthcheck workflow replacing
 test-ci-locally.sh (#19)

- scripts/healthcheck.sh: cross-repo CI health check script
  - Checks all 11 CognitiveOS repos: git status, branch, tag, Go
    build/vet, sh syntax/shellcheck, Dockerfile conventions,
    CGO_ENABLED=1, cograw target, stale refs, build tags
  - Supports --work-dir, --report-dir, --branch, --json, --quiet
  - Exits 1 on any failure, 0 on all pass
- Delete scripts/test-ci-locally.sh (superseded by healthcheck.sh)
- .github/workflows/healthcheck.yml: scheduled weekly (Mon 06:00 UTC)
  + workflow_dispatch, upload artifact, auto-create issue on failure

Subject: [PATCH 05/11] fix: redirect stderr to /dev/null, not into JSON
 artifact (#21)

The healthcheck workflow redirected stderr into the JSON result file
(2>&1), corrupting the JSON with human-readable report output. The
script writes JSON to stdout and the report to stderr separately.

+**Goal:** Usable package notary proxy and developer template.
+
+The registry is a **notary proxy** — it does not host `.cgp` files. Publishers provide a canonical `download_url` and a `sha256` checksum; the registry stores metadata and redirects clients to the download URL. This avoids file storage scaling concerns and allows publishers to host archives on their own infrastructure (GitHub Releases, S3, etc.).
