v1.8.0 — Observability, Supply Chain, and Documentation

Purpose: Tracks decisions, assumptions, rejected alternatives, open questions, expiry, and risk ownership. Audience: product, architecture, engineering, security, operations, documentation, release, and AI coding agents Owner: Operations, Security, and Documentation Maintainers Roadmap authority: docs/strategy/FORGEVENA_VERSIONED_PRODUCT_ROADMAP.md#11-v180--observability-supply-chain-and-documentation Lifecycle: planned Review: before implementation and at every lifecycle promotion

Required Decisions

  • Architecture and trust-boundary ADRs must be approved before implementation.
  • Every external protocol, schema, storage change, compatibility policy, and lifecycle authority requires an owner and review date.

Assumptions

  • Local observability is complete without hosted services.
  • Evidence metadata is sufficient for routine diagnostics.

Open Questions

  • Which trace formats are stable public contracts?
  • What retention defaults balance diagnosis and privacy?

Decision Expiry

Unresolved questions block affected implementation. Assumptions expire at the first release candidate unless converted into verified evidence or approved decisions.
