AIWG v2026.2.12 — "Doc Sync & Accelerate" Release
Released: 2026-02-26
Two major new commands bring documentation hygiene and SDLC pipeline acceleration to the framework. This release also removes all vendor-specific HashiCorp references, corrects CLI reference accuracy, and adds 24 integration tests for the new accelerate pipeline.
Highlights
| What changed | Why you care |
|---|---|
| `aiwg doc-sync` command | Detect and auto-fix documentation-code drift with parallel auditors |
| `aiwg sdlc-accelerate` command | Go from idea to construction-ready with a single command |
| HashiCorp references removed | Framework is now vendor-neutral for infrastructure tooling |
| CLI reference corrected | Command counts and categories match the actual 42-command inventory |
| 24 new integration tests | Full coverage for accelerate pipeline logic |
Doc-Sync Command
The new `doc-sync` command orchestrates documentation-code synchronization through three modes:
# Audit drift without making changes
aiwg doc-sync code-to-docs --dry-run
# Sync documentation to match code (auto-fix what's safe)
aiwg doc-sync code-to-docs
# Full bidirectional reconciliation with human decisions
aiwg doc-sync full --interactive
How It Works
1. Wave 1: 8 domain auditors run in parallel — each auditor compares a documentation domain against its code source of truth 2. Wave 2: 4 cross-reference checks validate mentions, claims, traceability, and internal links 3. Triage: Findings categorized as auto-fixable, template-fixable (Ralph refinement), or human-required 4. Auto-fix: Safe fixes applied using documented patterns with safety checks 5. Ralph refinement: Template-fixable items go through iterative improvement 6. Validation: Re-run checks to confirm fixes didn't introduce regressions
Domain Auditors
| Auditor | What It Checks |
|---|---|
| cli-ref-auditor | Command counts, sections, argument hints, descriptions |
| extension-type-auditor | Type definitions, fields, registry capabilities |
| provider-auditor | Provider table, deployment paths, model mappings |
| skill-auditor | Skill counts, inventory entries, trigger phrases |
| agent-auditor | Agent counts, descriptions, model assignments |
| config-auditor | Schemas, defaults, environment variables |
| readme-auditor | Version, install instructions, feature list |
| changelog-auditor | Version sections, tag matching, dates |
Auto-Fix Categories
Five categories of drift can be automatically corrected with safety checks:
1. Numeric claims — count mismatches (e.g., "40 commands" when there are 42) 2. Table entries — missing rows, extra rows, mismatched values 3. Argument hints — documented hints vs code `argumentHint` fields 4. Broken internal links — moved/renamed files, changed anchors 5. Broken @-mentions — unresolvable file references
SDLC Accelerate Command
The `sdlc-accelerate` command orchestrates the full SDLC ramp-up pipeline from a project idea to a construction-ready brief:
# From a description
aiwg sdlc-accelerate "Customer portal with real-time chat"
# From an existing codebase
aiwg sdlc-accelerate --from-codebase .
# Resume a previous run
aiwg sdlc-accelerate --resume
# Preview the pipeline without executing
aiwg sdlc-accelerate "My project" --dry-run
Pipeline Phases
Intake → LOM Gate → Elaboration → ABM Gate → Construction Prep → Brief
Each phase:
- Delegates to existing SDLC commands (intake-wizard, flow-concept-to-inception, flow-gate-check, etc.)
- Records state in `.aiwg/reports/accelerate-state.json`
- Gates produce PASS/CONDITIONAL/FAIL results with appropriate actions
- The pipeline is resumable — interrupted runs pick up where they left off
Gate Behavior
| Gate Result | Action |
|---|---|
| PASS | Auto-proceed to next phase |
| CONDITIONAL | Present findings, ask user to proceed/remediate |
| FAIL | Block with remediate/waiver/abort options |
State Schema
The accelerate state schema (`accelerate-state.yaml`) defines:
- Phase lifecycle: `pending → in_progress → completed / skipped / failed`
- Gate results with score, findings, and severity levels
- Decision log for gate waivers and overrides
- Timestamps for audit trail
HashiCorp Reference Removal
All vendor-specific HashiCorp references have been replaced with generic equivalents across 16 files:
| Before | After |
|---|---|
| HashiCorp Vault | Secret management service |
| Terraform | Infrastructure-as-Code tool |
| Consul | Service mesh / service discovery |
| Packer | Machine image builder |
| `terraform-aws-modules` | `registry/aws-modules` |
Files updated include agent definitions (cloud-architect, devops-engineer, security-auditor), security templates, deployment templates, legal templates, and toolsmith configs.
CLI Reference Corrections
The CLI reference now accurately reflects the 42-command inventory:
- Ralph category corrected: 7 → 4 commands (removed 3 non-existent entries)
- Added missing categories: Metrics (3), Documentation (1), SDLC Orchestration (1), Reproducibility (4)
- Total corrected: 36 → 42
Integration Tests
24 new tests in `test/integration/sdlc-accelerate.test.ts` cover:
- Command definition metadata validation
- Entry point detection (intake-wizard, intake-from-codebase, resume, skip-to)
- Phase resume logic (next pending/in-progress phase, all-completed detection)
- Gate handling (PASS→proceed, CONDITIONAL→ask, CONDITIONAL+auto→proceed, FAIL→block)
- State file management (initialization, phase updates, decision recording)
- Dry-run plan generation with delegate commands
