Research direction

Start with the central guarded sync_vendored_guides tool and the generated root ACKREDIT_GUIDE.md, then review the canonical standards/ACKREDIT_GUIDE.md source and its recorded SHA-256. Coordinate through the central registry and confirm the consumer copy remains read-only and excluded from Ruff. Done means the synchronized guide is publicly published without runtime changes.

Description

component:ackredit

What — Publish the synchronized ACKREDIT_GUIDE.md for Ackredit's accepted portable attribution contract.

Source — https://github.com/uibcdf/ackredit/blob/840aab3d415312144e4f5754d5def11b3068832f/standards/ACKREDIT_GUIDE.md. SHA-256: 24615e3a8894c7cba67fc92fd0323369e725c3bd88096df9eda9311ab8890ff5.

How — The central guarded sync_vendored_guides tool refreshed this consumer's local root guide after verifying the committed canonical source against remote main. The consumer copy is ready for owner review/publication. Please synchronize through the central registry, keep the generated guide read-only and excluded from Ruff, and use the canonical provider source for future text changes. Registration/delivery coordination remains uibcdf/molsyssuite#71.

Why — Ackredit now accepts Attribution, capture and get_attribution with the documented ackredit.attribution@1 compatibility boundary. The guide links the maintained contract and retains deferred optional loading, application-owned sessions and detached original bibliography/version semantics. The prepared first accepted release is 0.9.0; it is not yet a public artifact. This handoff requests guide publication only; runtime integration and a released dependency floor require this component's separate review and installed evidence (uibcdf/ackredit#75/#22/#80).

Validation — All six generated consumer copies match the canonical bytes. Ackredit's exact-source CI, full Python 3.11–3.14 Linux/macOS-arm64 matrix, suite policy and Conda publication policy pass for this source. PyUnitWizard's guide publication and integration/reporting checks are recorded in uibcdf/pyunitwizard#92. No runtime code changes or push to this repository were made by the Ackredit work.
