Releases and archive
Match images, chart versions and signed artifacts to the version you install. This documentation targets proposed v2026.11.1, the corrected November candidate. Preparation does not establish publication. The GitHub release page determines artifact availability; the previous published baseline remains v2026.10.0.
November 2026
November release notes describe the changes from published
October v2026.10.0, the migration path and known limitations. The
November preparation record explains the remaining
candidate and artifact checks, including the embedded-source packaging fix.
Rejected and unpublished: v2026.11.0 failed exact staged-image licensing
inspection. Its tag and artifacts are immutable recovery markers; do not publish
or install that candidate. Read its historical notes and
rejection record.

Published releases
Until November is published, use the signed October v2026.10.0 release. The GitHub release list is the authority for publication status and available artifacts.

Topology development history
The bounded merge scope and November handoff preserve dated development decisions and qualification evidence. The handoff records an October checkpoint; its branch instructions and review status are historical.
Evidence applies to its recorded revision and scope. For current instructions, use the managed topology guide; for remaining work, see the roadmap and execution plan.
