Sprint 1 closed: Canonical Engineering Model wired into handshake

Sprint 1 is closed.

The goal was to define the first Meronq language primitives — the Canonical Engineering Model (CEM) — that every runtime, memory, scanner, and translator component will share. That vocabulary now exists in code, in tests, and in the handshake AI clients receive at session start.

What Sprint 1 delivered

Every item on the roadmap is checked off:

• 
  Entity, Relation, Evidence, Event, Action, and Result models in packages/core
  


• Factory functions, type guards, and branded IDs


• First core domain API export from @meronq/core
  


• Test suite for primitives and a minimal graph linking example

From types to runtime: handshake + CEM snapshot

Before closing Sprint 1, we addressed seven review gaps:

1. 
   CEM in handshake — entities, relations, evidence from the workspace


2. 
   Fresh sprint hints — open roadmap tasks drive recommended_next_steps
   


3. 
   Single vision source — docs/product/vision.md
   


4. 
   Portable project path — auto-discovery via pnpm-workspace.yaml
   


5. 
   Docs aligned — architecture status, ADR index


6. 
   Social tools isolated — opt-in distribution module


7. 
   Git write gate — MERONQ_ALLOW_GIT_WRITE=true required

Local MCP is now v1.10.0.

Sprint 2 — Local Project Intelligence

Scanner + CLI prototype. CEM entities from real project structure.
