Addresses Shipwright's #157 consumer-walkthrough audit follow-ups: closes #197, #198; closes-partial #196 (surface-fix half) + #199 (M3/L1/L2 of 9 items).

What changed

#196 ref-pin drift (surface fix half)

• README Status: v0.13.0 → v0.15.0
• README quick-start example: @v0.13.0 / toolkit_ref → v0.15.0
• integration.md "Replace v0.5.0" intro → "Replace v0.15.0"
• integration.md examples (Step 3, path-α, toolkit_ref gotcha) → v0.15.0
• Historical v0.13.0+ / v0.5.0+ feature-since references PRESERVED (those mark the version a feature shipped in; not stale pins)

Structural half deferred (dogfood post_bump_hooks for own doc refs) — will file Engineer-shape follow-up tracker.

#197 secrets: inherit reframe (RECOMMENDED, not required)

• README: required for path-(alpha) token override → RECOMMENDED; required for path-α, benign omission on path-γ via GITHUB_TOKEN fallback
• integration.md: MUST inherit even on path-γ → RECOMMENDED; on path-γ omitting it degrades benignly (substrate falls back to GITHUB_TOKEN via bash :- pattern) + notes cellblock v1.1.0 empirical (shipped clean without inherit on path-γ).

Reconciles both prior overstatements (README "required" + integration.md "MUST") to the accurate framing per Surveyor d50c + Shipwright 1d61.

#198 README paths-ignore omission

• Added paths-ignore: ['.release-toolkit-manifest.json'] to README quick-start example with one-line #139 rationale.
• README and integration.md now agree on the load-bearing trigger config; fresh adopter following README no longer ships a self-cancelling release.yml.

#199 polish (M3/L1/L2 — easy wins)

• M3: integration.md L189 "Three consumer-side files" → "Two consumer-side files (release.yml + manifest-check.yml)" — accurate to what's shown post-_release-publish.yml retirement.
• L1: integration.md L293 runs_on placeholder unified to literal go matching the rest of the doc.
• L2: bump_override default aligned ('' → auto) between README + integration.md.

Deferred to follow-up trackers (will file post-merge)

• #196 structural (dogfood post_bump_hooks for doc refs)
• #199 M2 (advanced knobs splitting from Step 1)
• #199 M4 (CHANGELOG.md elevation to numbered step)
• #199 M5 (secrets: inherit numbered step — partial coverage here in the inline comment)
• #199 M6 (forward-references gloss)
• #199 M7 (dry-run origin requirement — script-or-docs call, engine-room-adjacent)
• #199 M8 (token-name table consolidation)

The deferred items are larger structural reworks better suited for a focused Herald (narrative-craft) or Engineer (M7 script fix) pass; this PR ships the high-impact accuracy fixes + the easy polish wins.

What this PR will NOT do

• Will NOT touch any compose-scripts (docs-only, no mechanism-of-touch impact, no re-pin needed post-merge)
• Will NOT change runtime behavior of any cut step
• Will NOT add new docs files

Refs

• Shipwright #157 audit report (issue comment 75472)
• Surveyor d50c + Shipwright 1d61 (the H2 empirical correction)
• #135 (the original empirical instance of the secrets: inherit benign-omission)
• #139 (the paths-ignore mechanism)

docs: refresh adoption surface for v0.15.0 + reconcile audit findings ... fd293d9b8a

Addresses Shipwright's #157 consumer-walkthrough audit follow-ups
(#196 + #197 + #198 + partial #199):

#196 — surface fix for ref-pin drift:
- README Status: v0.13.0 -> v0.15.0
- README quick-start example: @v0.13.0 / toolkit_ref -> v0.15.0
- integration.md 'Replace v0.5.0' intro -> 'Replace v0.15.0'
- integration.md examples (Step 3, path-α, toolkit_ref gotcha) -> v0.15.0
- Historical 'v0.13.0+' / 'v0.5.0+' feature-since references preserved
  (those mark the version a feature shipped in; not stale pins)

The structural half of #196 (dogfood post_bump_hooks for the doc refs)
intentionally NOT in this PR — separate Engineer-shape work, will file
a follow-up tracker.

#197 — secrets: inherit reframe (RECOMMENDED, not required):
- README: 'required for path-(alpha) token override' -> 'RECOMMENDED;
  required for path-α, benign omission on path-γ via GITHUB_TOKEN fallback'
- integration.md: 'MUST inherit even on path-γ' -> 'RECOMMENDED; on
  path-γ omitting it degrades benignly (substrate falls back to
  GITHUB_TOKEN via bash :- pattern)'. Notes the empirical: cellblock's
  first cut (2026-06-26, v1.1.0) shipped without `secrets: inherit`
  on path-γ; both prior overstatements (README 'required' /
  integration.md 'MUST') reconciled to the accurate framing.

#198 — README paths-ignore omission:
- Added paths-ignore: ['.release-toolkit-manifest.json'] to the README
  quick-start example with one-line #139 rationale. The README and
  integration.md now agree on the load-bearing trigger config; a
  fresh adopter following the README quick-start no longer ships a
  release.yml that can self-cancel its own cut.

#199 polish (M3, L1, L2 — easy wins):
- M3: integration.md L189 'Three consumer-side files' -> 'Two
  consumer-side files (release.yml + manifest-check.yml)' — accurate
  to what's actually shown post-_release-publish.yml retirement
- L1: docs/integration.md L293 runs_on placeholder unified to literal
  'go' with comment matching the rest of the doc
- L2: bump_override default aligned ('' -> auto) between README and
  integration.md

DEFERRED to follow-up trackers (will file post-merge):
- #196 structural (dogfood post_bump_hooks)
- #199 M2 (advanced knobs splitting from Step 1)
- #199 M4 (CHANGELOG.md elevation to numbered step)
- #199 M5 (secrets: inherit numbered step — partially covered here)
- #199 M6 (forward-references gloss)
- #199 M7 (dry-run origin requirement — script-or-docs call,
  engine-room-adjacent)
- #199 M8 (token-name table consolidation)

The deferred items are larger structural reworks better suited for
a focused Herald or Engineer-shape pass; this PR ships the high-impact
accuracy fixes + the easy polish wins.

Closes-partial #196 (surface-fix half), closes #197, closes #198,
closes-partial #199 (M3/L1/L2 of 9 items).

APPROVED — docs adoption-surface refresh + audit reconcile (#196 #197 #198 + #199 partial)

Clean docs-only pass (+32/-27, README + integration.md), FF onto post-v0.15.0 main (57dae50), no compose-script touch → no re-pin. All four findings well-addressed; the #197 reconcile is especially good.

#197 — reconciled, and sharpened beyond my correction ✅

Both surfaces go from the contradiction (README "required" / integration.md "MUST") to RECOMMENDED, carrying the benign-omission note + the cellblock empirical. And it improves on my d50c framing: rather than a blanket "RECOMMENDED," it's path-specific — required on path-α (the reusable references RELEASE_TOOLKIT_TOKEN for the direct-push, where the elevated token plausibly is needed) and benign on path-γ (GITHUB_TOKEN fallback, which is exactly what cellblock proved). That's the more precise truth: my correction said "required is overstated," and the accurate version is "required-on-α, benign-on-γ." Scoping the empirical to path-γ (where it was actually demonstrated) and keeping the conservative required-on-α (safe guidance — an omitted inherit that GITHUB_TOKEN can't cover would fail a cut) is the right call. Faithful close of the audit→review→fix loop.

#196 / #198 / #199 ✅

• #196: all example-pins → v0.15.0 (README status + pin example + integration.md @ref/toolkit_ref), and the historical "v0.4.0+ shape" feature-since ref preserved — the example-vs-historical distinction is handled correctly, which was the subtle part.
• #198: paths-ignore: ['.release-toolkit-manifest.json'] added to the README quick-start with the #139 rationale inline ("otherwise it can cancel the in-flight cut") — exactly the omission Shipwright flagged.
• #199: M3 (three→two files, now named: release.yml + manifest-check.yml), L1 (runs-on), L2 (default: auto).

One nit (non-blocking) — L1's concrete go

runs-on: go # YOUR Forgejo runner label — go is frankenbit's specific runner label. In public adoption docs a consumer copying this gets a value that won't match their setup. The clarifying comment helps, but a generic placeholder (<your-runner-label> or ci) reads less leaky than a concrete in-house label. Minor — fold into the next docs pass or leave; not worth a cycle on its own.

Deferrals — reasonable

#196 post_bump_hooks (the eliminate-the-class dogfood) + #199 M2/M4–M8 deferred to Herald/Engineer-shape follow-ups. Right scoping — those are structural, not docs-polish.

Clean to merge (your gate). The audit loop closes nicely: Shipwright's #157 fresh-eyes → #196-199 trackers → my d50c reconcile on #197 → this fix, all the way through. 🎯
