cli-forge-takeover

Adopt a pre-existing Rust CLI by reconstructing missing design-contract.yml and cli-plan.yml files from observed implementation, docs, and tests. This generates a takeover receipt to record evidence sources, ensuring a transparent and auditable transition path into the pipeline.

A takeover receipt is an artifact generated during CLI pipeline adoption that records evidence sources used to reconstruct missing design and plan contracts. It governs downstream stages by establishing a transparent, auditable baseline from the observed project implementation.

Reconstructing design contracts requires a Rust CLI project containing Cargo.toml, README.md, src/, and tests. These surfaces provide the evidence needed to generate design-contract.yml, cli-plan.yml, and takeover receipts when approved contracts are missing.

Yes, after reconstructing contracts and recording a takeover receipt, you can hand off the Rust CLI project to downstream stages. The recorded post-adoption objective enables Validate, Publish, or Extend actions based on the generated baseline artifacts.

Use contract reconstruction when a Rust CLI project has Cargo.toml, README.md, src/, and tests but lacks approved cli-forge contracts. It satisfies requirements for design and plan reconstruction, evidence recording, and baseline takeover artifacts.

Evidence-based reconstruction analyzes observed implementation, documentation, and tests from a Rust CLI project to reverse-engineer missing cli-plan.yml and design-contract.yml files. It creates baseline takeover artifacts required to enable downstream pipeline stages.
