What this file does
Declares full compliance of the ProvenanceCode CLI with the v2.0 standard, listing schema changes, ID formats, and backward compatibility.
When to use it
- Adopting the ProvenanceCode v2.0 standard in your CLI tool
- Migrating from v1.0 to v2.0 schema identifiers and ID formats
- Adding monorepo or Jira integration support to your CLI
- Validating your CLI against the official v2.0 compliance checklist

ProvenanceCode CLI - v2.0 Standard Compliance ✅
Overview
The ProvenanceCode CLI is now fully compliant with the official ProvenanceCode v2.0 standard.
✅ Compliance Checklist
Schema Identifiers
- ✅ Decision schema:
provenancecode.decision.v2(was:https://provenancecode.org/schemas/decision.g2.schema.json) - ✅ Risk schema:
provenancecode.risk.v2(was:https://provenancecode.org/schemas/risk.g2.schema.json) - ✅ Backward compatible with old schema URLs
ID Format
- ✅ Decision IDs:
DEC-{PROJECT}-{SUBPROJECT}-{SEQ6}- Example:
DEC-SHOP-FE-000001 - Pattern:
^DEC-[A-Z0-9]{2,4}-[A-Z0-9]{2,4}-[0-9]{6}$
- Example:
- ✅ Risk IDs:
RA-{PROJECT}-{SUBPROJECT}-{SEQ6}(uses RA prefix per standard)- Example:
RA-SHOP-SEC-000001 - Pattern:
^RA-[A-Z0-9]{2,4}-[A-Z0-9]{2,4}-[0-9]{6}$
- Example:
- ✅ Project code: 2-4 uppercase characters (A-Z, 0-9)
- ✅ Subproject code: 2-4 uppercase characters (A-Z, 0-9)
Configuration Files
codes.json ✅
Standard registry file created at provenance/codes.json:
{
"schema": "provenancecode.codes@1.0",
"version": "1.0",
"monorepo": false,
"projects": {
"SHOP": {
"name": "SHOP",
"subprojects": {
"FE": {
"name": "FE",
"workspace": "."
}
}
}
}
}
Features:
- Auto-created on
prvc install - Auto-updated when setting project/subproject via
prvc config - Supports monorepo configuration
- Validates project/subproject code format (2-4 chars)
sequences.json ✅
Standard tracking file created at provenance/sequences.json:
{
"schema": "provenancecode.sequences@1.0",
"version": "1.0",
"sequences": {}
}
Features:
- Auto-created on
prvc install - Tracks sequence numbers per PROJECT-SUBPROJECT-ARTIFACT_TYPE
- Prevents ID conflicts
Schema Fields
Decision Schema (v2.0) ✅
New v2.0 fields added:
{
"schema": "provenancecode.decision.v2",
"decision_id": "DEC-SHOP-FE-000001",
"project": {
"code": "SHOP",
"name": "Shop Application",
"jiraProject": "SHOP"
},
"subproject": {
"code": "FE",
"name": "Frontend",
"workspace": "apps/frontend",
"jiraComponent": "Frontend"
},
"context": {
"problem": "What problem are we solving?",
"constraints": ["Technical constraints"]
},
"links": {
"pr": "https://github.com/org/repo/pull/123",
"jira": "https://company.atlassian.net/browse/SHOP-123"
},
"timestamps": {
"created_at": "2026-02-16T00:00:00Z",
"updated_at": "2026-02-16T00:00:00Z"
}
}
Backward compatibility:
- ✅ Old v1.0 string format for
contextstill valid - ✅ Old array format for
linksstill valid - ✅ Old
date_created/date_updatedfields still supported
Risk Schema (v2.0) ✅
New v2.0 fields added:
{
"schema": "provenancecode.risk.v2",
"risk_id": "RA-SHOP-SEC-000001",
"project": {
"code": "SHOP",
"name": "Shop Application"
},
"subproject": {
"code": "SEC",
"name": "Security",
"workspace": "packages/security"
},
"timestamps": {
"created_at": "2026-02-16T00:00:00Z",
"updated_at": "2026-02-16T00:00:00Z"
}
}
Monorepo Support ✅
Full v2.0 monorepo support:
# Configure monorepo
prvc config monorepo --roots="apps/frontend,apps/backend,packages/shared"
codes.json with monorepo:
{
"schema": "provenancecode.codes@1.0",
"monorepo": true,
"projects": {
"PLATFORM": {
"subprojects": {
"FE": {
"workspace": "apps/frontend",
"paths": ["apps/frontend/**"]
},
"BE": {
"workspace": "apps/backend",
"paths": ["apps/backend/**"]
}
}
}
}
}
Jira Integration Support ✅
Schema supports Jira integration:
- ✅
project.jiraProjectfield - ✅
subproject.jiraComponentfield - ✅
links.jirafor ticket URLs
Example with Jira:
{
"decision_id": "DEC-SHOP-FE-000001",
"project": {
"code": "SHOP",
"jiraProject": "SHOP"
},
"subproject": {
"code": "FE",
"jiraComponent": "Frontend"
},
"links": {
"jira": "https://company.atlassian.net/browse/SHOP-123"
}
}
🔄 Backward Compatibility
The CLI maintains full backward compatibility:
v1.0 Format Still Valid ✅
{
"schema": "https://provenancecode.org/schemas/decision.g2.schema.json",
"decision_id": "DEC-000001",
"title": "Old format decision",
"status": "draft"
}
The CLI will:
- ✅ Validate v1.0 format
- ⚠️ Warn that v2.0 schema identifier is preferred
- ✅ Accept both formats in same repository
Mixed Formats Supported ✅
A repository can contain:
- v1.0 decisions:
DEC-000001 - v2.0 decisions:
DEC-SHOP-FE-000001 - Both coexisting peacefully

What's inside
8 sections covering schema identifiers, ID formats, configuration files, schema fields, monorepo support, Jira integration, backward compatibility, and testing results.
Change this for your project
- Replace
SHOPwith your actual project code - Replace
FEwith your actual subproject code - Replace
https://company.atlassian.net/browse/SHOP-123with your Jira ticket URL - Replace
apps/frontendwith your actual workspace paths
Where it goes
Save as AGENTS.md in your repository root. Read by Codex, Cursor and other agents that follow the AGENTS.md convention.
Worth borrowing
- Maintain a compliance checklist that maps each standard requirement to a concrete implementation detail
- Provide backward compatibility by accepting both old and new formats with warnings
