Tag-triggered draft verification passed an absolute handoff path to the installed RRT CLI, which requires an evidence policy inside the checkout. Use tooling/release-evidence.toml for verification while retaining the policy copy for the downstream handoff. A regression test executes the workflow shell and replays its evidence arguments through the installed CLI.

Also refresh the repository documentation after v0.5.3:

  • Remove obsolete migration instructions and release plans, archive historical benchmark reviews, and document current command ownership and recovery steps.
  • Clarify benchmark comparisons and API documentation.
  • Exclude generated performance reports and run records from CodeRabbit review while keeping evidence manifests, indexes, tooling, and tests eligible.

Validation:

  • just check passed on the final staged tree.
  • just test-python tests/tooling/test_release_flow.py: 28 passed.
  • just markdown-fix markdown-ci, explicit Markdown checks for the archived guides, and just citation-check passed.
  • just fmt-check doc-check test-doc test-doc-exact passed: 85 default and 114 exact-feature doctests.
  • Checked all 35 README API links and confirmed Rust edits only change documentation.

Performance measurement is not applicable: numerical implementations and benchmark inputs are unchanged, and no benchmarks were rerun. Existing release evidence and generated performance content are preserved.

Remaining release efficiency and recovery work stays tracked in RRT v0.2.9; this PR does not close those follow-ups.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Updated benchmark guidance to clarify workload selection, measurement budgets, saved-baseline reports, and release acquisition.
    • Revised contributor, security, release, and tooling guides with current procedures, verification requirements, and recovery guidance.
    • Refreshed roadmap and archive references, and updated documentation for determinant calculations and numerical diagnostics.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Release evidence verification now uses the designated policy source, with coverage for selecting and verifying the expected release run.
    • Review filters now exclude performance reports and run records.

- Verify release evidence with the installed CLI's repository-relative policy path.
- Exclude generated performance reports and run records from CodeRabbit review.
- Replace obsolete release and tooling guidance with current ownership and recovery steps.
- Archive historical benchmark reviews and clarify benchmark and API documentation.

Walkthrough

The pull request revises benchmark and release documentation, contributor and repository policy references, and project and API guidance. It changes the release workflow’s evidence-policy input and adds a test for that invocation. It also excludes performance documentation and run records from review paths.

Changes: Benchmark and release guidance

Layer / File(s) Summary
Benchmark selection and reporting
README.md, docs/BENCHMARKING.md, tooling/README.md
The guides describe release workload selection, benchmark reports, historical rendering, and acquisition rules.
Release evidence and handoffs
.github/workflows/prepare-release.yml, tests/tooling/test_release_flow.py, docs/RELEASING.md, docs/dev/release-flow-integration.md, tooling/README.md
The workflow reads tooling/release-evidence.toml for evidence verification. The test replays the evidence command through the shared CLI. Release guidance updates preparation, handoffs, and recovery procedures.
Historical benchmark records
docs/archive/development/*
The archive identifies benchmark reviews as historical evidence, points readers to current guides, and corrects relative links.

Repository policy and reference documentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Contributor and tooling policy
CONTRIBUTING.md, SECURITY.md, docs/dev/MANAGING_CHANGES.md, tooling/README.md
Contributor, maintainer, security, and tooling guidance updates shared-tooling references, Rust policy, approval configuration, authorization, and dependency-policy descriptions.
Project scope and API references
README.md, docs/MEASURING_COVERAGE.md, docs/roadmap.md, docs/code_organization.md, src/ldlt.rs, src/lu.rs, src/matrix.rs, docs/dev/performance-tooling-adoption.md
The project and API references are revised, the coverage heading is renamed, and the tooling adoption guide is removed.

Review path filters

Layer / File(s) Summary
Performance path exclusions
.coderabbit.yaml
The review path filters exclude docs/performance.md and run-specific report.md and run.json files.

Merge Risk: Low · up to e7d3d

The README and the benchmark guide disagree about whether a new comparison against a pre-API baseline may omit the baseline phase. Aligning the README with the guide is a small documentation fix and does not block merging.

Explanation

The title names the two real parts of the changeset: a fix to release draft verification (the workflow now reads tooling/release-evidence.toml directly, with a regression test) and a refresh of maintainer docs (CONTRIBUTING, RELEASING, BENCHMARKING, roadmap, and archive changes). It is concise and specific, and it follows the conventional commit style. It does not list every change, which the criteria allow.

Limit README current-only baseline rows to historical reports.

README.md says that comparisons against a pre-API baseline keep supported new workloads as current-only measurements. docs/BENCHMARKING.md requires both baseline and current phases for new exact comparisons. It allows current-only rows only in frozen historical reports that predate the rational-input API.

Maintainers reading the README cannot tell whether a new comparison may omit the baseline phase. Align the README with the guide, or state the historical-report limit in the README.
