Understandable Ark.
Minor over 4.5.7. Doctor, reports, and skills use common software words. Shared Claude/Grok home skills stay on the newest package on the machine. ArkGate and ArkRules stay as names. No required config migration.
Upgrade
Get 4.6.0
Project skills follow this checkout’s pin. Shared homes never go backward.
Absent ~/.claude/skills / ~/.grok/skills trees are
normal — doctor stays quiet until ark-* skills exist there.
What changed
In plain English.
Common words
Import rules, leftover design work, pre-write block, warning only
(not blocked). Status lights Suggest / Adapt / Enforce stay.
JSON designWeak and ruleIds are unchanged.
Brands kept
ArkGate is the product. ArkRules is the optional structure-rules plane. Gloss on first mention; do not rename.
Shared home skills
--claude-home / --grok-home /
--agent-homes write the same monotonic floor Codex already had.
An older project must not pull those homes backward.
Cursor pre-write block stays
Trusted .cursor/hooks.json still blocks Write/StrReplace.
Codex/OpenCode stay warning-only at local write. Required CI remains
the shared merge boundary.
Honesty notes
What did not change
- Write gate and CI fail-closed semantics for value-layer import rules
- Binary gate—no numeric architecture score, no LLM pass/fail
- No new skill names; no new ArkRules sensors
- Codex / OpenCode remain warning-only at local write
- A green import check is not finished design
