staircase
v0.10.0An honest rendering layer between bursty production and a steady delivery SLA: verified wins are banked in a buffer and released on a cadence stakeholders can trust, with the full ledger one click beneath. Every project gets a .staircase/ folder — the shared expectations record for human and agent teammates alike — and a Staircase Manager steering subagent that infers real progress from footprints (ledgers, git, transcript tail — never claims) and steers the working session back on course only when drift is detected.

Included Skills2
A curated playbook of time-tested mental models for builders — reach for it when facing a judgment call about business, complexity, design, architecture, decision-making, or delivery under pressure (deadline risk, an irreversible choice, a tangle you can't size, an over-engineering temptation, a stakeholder mismatch). Each lens has a trigger and a concrete move, and several wire directly to Staircase's promises / buffer / split / audit mechanics. Use when the question is "how should I think about this?", not "what does this command do?".
The Staircase methodology — bank verified wins in a buffer, release them on a steady, fully-ledgered cadence, and manage expectations through a per-project .staircase/ folder. Use when starting work in any repo containing .staircase/, when logging a verified win, releasing wins, rendering or linting a delivery report, changing a delivery cadence/SLA, or when the user mentions staircase, delivery cadence, win buffer, expectations record, or promise-kept ratio.
