chore(release): prepare v0.6.0 - #216
Conversation
Bump the version from 0.5.6 to 0.6.0 in the manifest, bundled skill, release workflow, Windows archive gate, and tests. Date the 0.6.0 changelog section and cite #215 in its approval-gate bullet. Add the skill-pick benchmark artifacts measured on dd4477a and state that #215 changed plugin code after that measurement. Update the bundled operations skill text and drop pre-release labels in docs.

Reviewer's GuideThis release-preparation PR changes the project identity and packaging contracts to 0.6.0, finalizes release-facing documentation and changelog language, and adds hash-bound benchmark artifacts with explicit limits around measurement freshness. Reviewers should especially validate the consistency of every version/archive reference, the release date, and that the benchmark claims accurately match the included artifacts and pre-#215 source.

<issue_to_address>
**nitpick:** The changelog records 2026-10-04 as the release date even though the release has not been tagged and the date is ahead of the author’s current Saturday-night date; tagging on a different day leaves the published release history with a false date.
**Triggers:** When the tag is created on a day other than 2026-10-04.
**Suggested fix:** Set the heading date to the actual tag date, or retain an unreleased heading until the tag is ready.
```suggestion

```
</issue_to_address>Sourcery assessment
Needs a human reviewer. This changes the release workflow and package identity, so an incorrect version could produce externally distributed archives, manifests, or documentation that remain after a revert. The issue is bounded and can be corrected by rebuilding or issuing a follow-up release, but reverting alone would not retract artifacts already consumed.

Review comments at @docs/benchmarks/multi-skill-dd4477a.json:
- Line 72: Add an executable collector for the multi-skill measurement that runs
all five required_set fixtures through routing.select_skills using the frozen
12-skill catalog, default threshold, and matching DecisionClient and Hermes
secret scope from collect_switchyard.py. Record per-call results and provenance,
including source, dataset, and catalog hashes, and calculate percentiles with
the nearest-rank method used by benchmark.py.
Review comments at @docs/FIRST-RUN.md:
- Line 1: Update the “First-run check” heading to attribute the measured run to
the source manifest version 0.5.4, keeping the separate 0.5.5 real-profile run
distinct.

CodeRabbit noted the heading said 0.5.5 while the measured source commit still declares 0.5.4; the separate real-profile 0.5.5 check stays in the body.

This is release prep only. Do not merge, tag, or publish a catalog entry from this PR.
Version bump is 0.5.6 to 0.6.0 in plugin.yaml, the bundled skill frontmatter, .github/workflows/release-candidate.yml (--version 0.6.0 and hermes-switchyard-0.6.0.zip), scripts/ci/check_windows_installed_archive.py, and the tests test_ci_contracts.py, test_release_stabilization.py, and test_windows_installed_archive.py. scripts/build_release.py only adds two benchmark JSON files to RELEASE_FILES.
The changelog heading is ## 0.6.0 (2026-10-04). That date is ahead of the Saturday-night author time and should be changed if the tag lands on a later day.
Benchmark honesty: the skill-pick and multi-skill rows are the dd4477a remeasure (12/12 single-skill, p50 151.7 ms; 5/5 multi-skill, p50 154 ms). Proof binds the plugin hash to dd4477a, then says the release plugin hash differs because #215 changed approval_review.py and the operations skill body after that measurement. Those rows were not re-measured after #215. Other rows stay 0.5.0-only.
Path A: the smart approval provider stays. There is no new code for D2/B/C.
Checks already reported locally: 104 tests in six targeted modules passed; tree portability passed; no 0.5.6 version declaration left outside the changelog. Not run: the full unit suite, evaluation/evaluate.py --validate, history portability, native-Hermes CI, and the release-candidate workflow. CI on this PR will cover what the workflows run.
