TL;DR. Zenzic v0.7.0 "Quartz Maturity" closes the post-Obsidian arc with seven epochs: the 4-Gates Standard (EPOCH 4), the language-agnostic Z907 I18N_PARITY check (EPOCH 5), Cross-Instance Sovereignty now Zero-Config (EPOCH 6), Multi-Root Discovery (EPOCH 7a), Zero-Config Sovereignty with [link_validation] removed (EPOCH 7a.1), and Virtual Routes with the zenzic inspect routes JSON API (EPOCH 7b). 1,485+ tests. Some breaking changes; clean migration path.

During the final consolidation sprint for v0.7.0, we ran four AI agents against Zenzic's own documentation site. They were instructed to find everything wrong with it.

Every build engine you have ever used has made you a silent promise: "Trust me — if this builds, your documentation is correct."

That promise is architecturally broken. And your documentation is paying the price.

Software does not die when its code grows old.

It dies when the pact between the author and the user is broken — the implicit promise that what works today will still make sense tomorrow, that the rules of the game will not shift mid-journey, that the tool you trusted will not become the problem you need to escape.

This is the sixth chronicle. The one we were always building toward.

The siege is over. All four bypass vectors are closed. 1,195 tests pass. The Bastion holds.
