Release v2.1.0: Opus 4.8-tuned pm-ai-shipping audits + CHANGELOG-driven release automation

pm-ai-shipping: mandatory Evidence citations verified before reporting,
concrete subagent fan-out contract, read-only allowed-tools on both audits,
N+1/waterfall detection and a refute pass in the performance audit,
untrusted-input hardening across the kit, parallel audits in /ship-check,
severity anchors + report consolidation, repo-relative paths.

Repo: CHANGELOG.md as release source of truth with auto-tag-and-release on
merge to main (adapted from phuryn/claude-usage, minus the .vsix build),
Tests workflow on every PR/push, unit + docs-consistency test suite,
contributor-credit conventions in CONTRIBUTING, all manifests synced at 2.1.0.

+# Runs after each push to main. If CHANGELOG.md gained a new ## vX.Y.Z heading
+# anywhere in this push's commit range (compared to the push's `before` SHA):
+#   1. gate the release — the version in .claude-plugin/marketplace.json must
+#      match the new heading, and the validator + test suite must pass
+#      (the suite also asserts every plugin.json carries the same version), then
+#   2. create a lightweight tag with that version name at the pushed commit, and
+#   3. publish a GitHub Release for that tag with the matching CHANGELOG

+#
+# CHANGELOG is the source of truth; the tag and the Release are deterministic
+# projections of it. Adapted from phuryn/claude-usage's tag-on-merge workflow,
+# minus the .vsix build. Added headings whose tag already exists are treated as
+# backfilled history and skipped, so importing old releases is safe.
+#
+# No action when CHANGELOG wasn't touched, when an existing version heading was
+# edited (not added), or when the tag/release already exists. Safe to re-run on

+### pm-ai-shipping
+
+- `/security-audit-static` findings now carry a mandatory **Evidence** line (`file:line` + verbatim snippet), and every citation is re-verified against the file before the final report ships.
+- Subagent fan-out has a concrete trigger (scope over ~30 files / ~5,000 lines) and a structured candidate-record contract, so parallel audit slices merge cleanly into one self-refute pass.
+- `/performance-audit-static` now hunts **N+1 queries and request waterfalls** — the most common perf failure in AI-generated code — alongside over-fetching, indexes, and caching, and gained a refute-before-reporting pass (dynamic field access, existing indexes, hot-path evidence).
+- Both audit commands pre-approve a read-only toolset (`allowed-tools`): read, search, fan out, and write under `reports/` — never edit the code under audit.
+- The audited repo is treated as untrusted input across the kit: instructions embedded in code, comments, or docs are data to analyze — a steering attempt is itself a finding — never directives to follow.
+- `/ship-check` runs the security and performance audits as parallel subagents once the docs exist.
+- Security reports gained severity anchors (what Critical/High/Medium/Low mean) and a consolidation rule (more than ~12 findings → lead with the worst, group the tail by root cause).
+- Docs and reports now use repo-relative paths (`documentation/`, `reports/`) — the old absolute forms (`/documentation`) could resolve to the filesystem root — and reports are always written, with the path announced, instead of "optionally".
+
+### Repo
+
+- Added this `CHANGELOG.md` as the release source of truth with auto-tag-and-release on merge (adapted from [claude-usage](https://github.com/phuryn/claude-usage)): pushing a new `## vX.Y.Z` heading to `main` tags that version and publishes a GitHub Release with the section as notes — gated on the test suite and a version-sync check.
+- Added a test suite (`tests/`) and a Tests workflow (every PR and push to `main`): plugin-spec validation plus docs consistency — README skill/command counts vs. disk, marketplace plugin list vs. directories, version sync across all manifests, CHANGELOG format.
+- CONTRIBUTING now documents the changelog convention (every user-facing change gets a bullet; contributors credited inline) and the release procedure.
+- Docs since v2.0.0: native Codex CLI install path; companion badges (burnstop, claude-usage).
+
+## v2.0.0 — 2026-06-05
+
+- Added the **pm-ai-shipping** plugin (AI Shipping Kit): `/ship-check`, `/document-app`, `/derive-tests`, `/security-audit-static`, `/performance-audit-static`, plus the `shipping-artifacts` and `intended-vs-implemented` skills.
+- Added the `strategy-red-team` skill and `/red-team-prd` command to pm-execution.
+- Refreshed the root README; added `CLAUDE.md` / `AGENTS.md` agent guidance.

+## Changelog & Contributor Credit
+
+Every user-facing change gets a bullet in [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md). In a PR, add yours under a `## Unreleased` heading at the top (create it if it doesn't exist) and credit yourself at the end of the bullet — `(#123, thanks @your-handle)`. Credits ship verbatim in the GitHub Release notes and stay in the changelog permanently.
+
+## Releases (maintainer)
+
+`CHANGELOG.md` is the source of truth; tags and GitHub Releases are deterministic projections of it (`.github/workflows/tag-on-merge.yml`):
+
+1. Rename `## Unreleased` to `## vX.Y.Z — YYYY-MM-DD`. Semver: breaking changes = major, new skills/commands or changed behavior = minor, fixes and docs = patch.
+2. Set the same version in `.claude-plugin/marketplace.json` and every plugin's `plugin.json` — versions stay in sync across the repo (the test suite enforces this).
+3. Push to `main`. CI verifies the version sync, runs the validator and test suite, then tags `vX.Y.Z` and publishes a GitHub Release with the changelog section as notes. No new heading → no release; ordinary pushes are unaffected.

 ```
 
+### Codex CLI (OpenAI)
+
+Codex reads the same plugin marketplace file as Claude Code, so you can install PM Skills natively — no conversion or file-copying needed:
+
+```bash
+# Step 1: Add the marketplace
+codex plugin marketplace add phuryn/pm-skills
+
+# Step 2: Install the plugins you want
+codex plugin add pm-toolkit@pm-skills
+codex plugin add pm-product-strategy@pm-skills
+codex plugin add pm-product-discovery@pm-skills
+codex plugin add pm-market-research@pm-skills
+codex plugin add pm-data-analytics@pm-skills
+codex plugin add pm-marketing-growth@pm-skills
+codex plugin add pm-go-to-market@pm-skills
+codex plugin add pm-execution@pm-skills
+codex plugin add pm-ai-shipping@pm-skills
+```
+
+**What you get:** every skill (the PM frameworks), available to Codex and invocable by name. Install whole plugins rather than cherry-picking individual skills — a workflow usually relies on several skills that ship together.
+
+**What's different from Claude Code:** the `/slash` commands (`/discover`, `/write-prd`, …) install but don't run as Codex slash commands — Codex plugins don't expose commands. To run a workflow, just describe the steps in plain language, for example:
+
+> Run product discovery on *[your idea]*: brainstorm options, map assumptions, prioritize the risky ones, then design experiments — pause between each step.
+
+**Optional — let Codex turn the workflows into skills.** Because the command files ship inside each installed plugin, you can ask Codex to convert the ones you use most:
+
+> Read the command files in the pm-execution plugin and create equivalent Codex skills for the workflows I use most often.
+
+This is a best-effort, model-driven conversion (some Claude-specific command syntax won't translate), but it's a quick way to get the guided workflows on Codex without leaving the CLI.

 ## The audit
 
-### 1. Over-fetch in view payloads
+### 1. N+1 queries and request waterfalls
+
+The most common perf failure in AI-generated code. Review loops and per-item rendering paths for a query or fetch executed per row — a list view that runs one query for the list, then one more per item. Also flag sequential `await` chains where the calls are independent (could be batched, joined, or run in parallel) and unbounded reads (no `LIMIT`/pagination) feeding paginated UIs. Recommend the specific join, batch query, or parallelization that removes the loop.
+
+### 2. Over-fetch in view payloads
 
 Review components that render list or dashboard views. Identify fields fetched from the database but never used in the frontend, `SELECT *` on wide tables, missing pagination, absent lazy loading, and redundant loads. Suggest a minimal field set per component or route.
 
-### 2. Missing or inefficient indexes
+### 3. Missing or inefficient indexes
 
 Review queries, filters, and RPCs used in production views. Identify missing or inefficient indexes based on sort, filter, and join conditions, focusing on large tables and hot endpoints. Give specific index definitions, not "add an index."
 
-### 3. Caching opportunities
+### 4. Caching opportunities
 
 Review endpoints and data-access patterns for frequently called paths that return static or rarely changing data. Identify where frontend or backend caching helps, and specify the invalidation rule for each — caching without an invalidation plan is a correctness bug in waiting.
 
+### 5. Refute before reporting
+
+Try to disprove each finding; keep it only with cited evidence (file:line):
+
+- Before flagging an unused field, grep for dynamic access — `row[field]`, object spreads into props, serializers, CSV/export paths — that consumes it invisibly.
+- Before flagging a missing index, check the schema and migrations for an existing one; primary keys and unique constraints already have indexes.
+- Before proposing a cache, cite why the path is hot (rendered per page load, called in a loop, hit by bots) — caching a cold path adds invalidation risk for nothing.
