Prooflane v0.1.0 Public Launch Notes

This page is the user-facing release story for the first public Prooflane surface. It is the canonical note body prepared for the first published GitHub Release of the public repository.

Historical launch note: the current front door has since been realigned toward the stress-lab-first story in README.md and docs/get-started.md.

What This Launch Changes

Prooflane now presents itself like a product entrypoint instead of a governance-only repository:

• The public README leads with a real product screenshot and a fastest-result path
• The docs stack now routes by evaluation intent, not only by internal governance layer
• The public docs now make the MCP-capable client path legible for Codex, Claude Code, and other MCP hosts without turning the product into a generic assistant story
• The repo includes a first public proof map, FAQ, and launch-story surface
• The product UI now aligns with the Prooflane brand instead of the historical legacy label

Fastest First Result

If your checkout is already bootstrapped:

./scripts/dev-up.sh

If this is your first run in a fresh checkout:

./scripts/setup.sh && ./scripts/dev-up.sh

Expected outcome:

• Command Center at http://127.0.0.1:17373
• API health at http://127.0.0.1:17380/health/
• A real operator surface with target inputs, experiment entrypoints, and run parameters

What Is Public Now

• Public product front door: README.md
• Result-first quickstart: docs/get-started.md
• Product positioning: docs/why-prooflane.md
• MCP agent review loop: docs/how-to/mcp-agent-review-loop.md
• Public proof surfaces: docs/proof-center.md
• Public boundary stance: docs/reference/public-readiness.md
• Published release entry: GitHub Releases

Verification Notes

These launch surfaces were validated locally during the same implementation pass and prepared for promotion into a real GitHub Release from main:

• ./scripts/setup.sh now completes successfully in a fresh checkout because the repo includes a root uv.lock
• ./scripts/dev-up.sh now reaches local UI and API readiness using the repo-safe pnpm entrypoint and path-stable Alembic invocation
• A real local screenshot was captured into docs/assets/prooflane-command-center-real.png

Known Constraints

• pnpm uiq run --profile pr --target web.local currently requires GEMINI_API_KEY; without it, the run exits with reasonCode=ai.gemini.strict_policy_violation
• Runtime evidence and failure bundles remain private-only by default unless a path is explicitly allowlisted as public-safe
• AI findings and internal code-quality dashboards are not part of the current public machine-verifiable proof set

Why This Release Matters

The point of this launch is not that Prooflane is finished. The point is that the repo now gives a much stronger first impression:

• It shows the product before it explains the governance
• It gives evaluators a fastest-result path before deep contracts
• It makes the public proof story easier to inspect and easier to follow
