…otification, replayable cross-major migration chain Two review corrections reshape the design: 1. The consumer's maintainer is an AI agent, so human attention is not the scarce resource — machine executability and verifiability are. Notification (CI warnings, prose guides) demoted; a load-time conversion layer (most breaks need zero consumer action), executable migrations, structured fail-fast diagnostics, and an MCP upgrade surface promoted. Framework-side smoke ring dropped in favor of consumer agents pulling RCs and verifying themselves. Includes the PD#12 boundary argument for why a centralized, versioned, expiring conversion table is not a consumer-side dialect fallback. 2. A one-major warning window is worthless to a consumer upgrading across multiple majors. Timeliness is now explicitly non-load-bearing: retired conversions graduate into a permanent, ordered, fixture-tested migration chain; 'migrate meta --from N' replays any past major to current in one command, with per-hop verify checkpoints; per-major change manifests compose into a single from->to view.

Summary
Adds ADR-0087, the consumer-facing sequel to ADR-0059: how externally developed metadata apps upgrade stably across protocol majors — designed for the actual consumer population: AI-agent-maintained apps, arriving from any past major, not humans marching one release at a time.
The design ladder (best outcome first):
http_request → httpand the client-react alias removals were 100% convertible — most consumers would have needed zero action. Includes the explicit boundary argument for why a centralized, versioned, loud, tested, expiring conversion table does not violate Prime Directive Add comprehensive test suite for Zod schema validation #12 (it's the owned version history of one contract, not scattered consumer-side dialect fallbacks — and it gives the existing executor fallbacks a retirement path).objectstack migrate meta --from Nreplays any past major → current in one command, with per-hop verify checkpoints for bisection. Timeliness is never load-bearing: a consumer that slept through four majors replays four steps on arrival — no warning window to have missed.engines.protocolhandshake (PluginEnginesSchema, declared but checked nowhere — an ADR-0078 violation) so mismatch is a structured, machine-actionable load-time refusal naming the exact replay command, never a downstream crash.spec-changes.json+ an MCP upgrade surface (spec_changes(from,to),spec_deprecations,spec_migrate(dryRun)); the prose guide becomes a generated projection of the registry.validate && typecheck && testloop is the acceptance test of an autonomous upgrade; rehearsal inverts — consumer agents pull RCs from thenextdist-tag and verify themselves (the blocking hotcrm smoke stays; a framework-side community smoke ring is rejected as the wrong direction).Phased P0–P3, independently shippable, evidence-gated; nothing in ADR-0059 changes.
