AI-assisted change proposal. Filed by agent driven by @Cervator via GDD.

Summary

  • Renames the Guildhall "graft" concept to the industry-plain adoption across docs, ADRs, the Ravenline seed, and the smoke script. "Graft" sat in a third register (botanical — neither the Norse kennings nor plain-technical) and carried the American-English "graft = corruption" reading, a live risk for the corporate port.
  • Mapping (consistent with the existing vocabulary, where components already adopt an aspect and the record is enrollment): mechanism/§3.7 concept → adoption; the scaffolder-door artifact → adoption template; verb "graft X onto Y" → apply; annotation siliconsaga.org/graft-recordsiliconsaga.org/adoption-record. Enrollment is unchanged — you run an adoption (adoption template + SKILL.md), which enrolls the component.
  • ADR 0010 renamed to 0010-aspect-module-adoption-blocks.md (mkdocs nav + ADR index refs updated). Norse skin candidates (kvistr/sproti/ívaf) were set aside for the plain term; the kennings layer can still skin it later.
  • No entity refs, template ids, or group names changed (apply-security-aspect, security-gildi untouched); the -record annotation is inert (not yet consumed).

Test plan

  • make smoke-catalog passes 16/16, including the renamed "Adoption Template ingested / ownedBy security-gildi" assertions — the seed still ingests at runtime with its relations intact.
  • Reviewer: skim the design doc §3.7 / ADR 0010 wording for readability of the new term.

…moke

The "graft" term for applying an aspect to a component grated: it sits in a
third register (botanical — neither the Norse kennings nor plain-technical),
and the American-English "graft = corruption" reading is a live risk for the
corporate port. Rename it to the industry-plain **adoption**.

Mapping, chosen for consistency with the existing vocabulary (components already
"adopt" an aspect; the record is "enrollment"):

- graft (the mechanism / §3.7 concept) → adoption
- the graft / graft Template (the scaffolder-door artifact) → adoption template
- graft / grafting (verb, "graft X onto Y") → apply (the model's existing verb)
- annotation `siliconsaga.org/graft-record` → `siliconsaga.org/adoption-record`
- enrollment is unchanged — it remains the record: you run an *adoption*
  (adoption template + SKILL.md), which *enrolls* the component.

ADR 0010 renamed to `0010-aspect-module-adoption-blocks.md` (nav + index refs
updated). Norse skin candidates (kvistr/sproti/ívaf) were set aside in favour of
the plain industry term; the kennings layer can still skin it later if wanted.

Verified: `make smoke-catalog` passes 16/16, including the renamed "Adoption
Template ingested / ownedBy" assertions — the seed still ingests at runtime with
its relations intact. No entity refs, template ids, or group names changed
(`apply-security-aspect`, `security-gildi` untouched); the `-record` annotation
is inert (not yet consumed).

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation

    • Updated terminology throughout guides, ADRs, diagrams, examples, and catalog descriptions from “graft” to “adoption.”
    • Clarified the two adoption entry points: portal templates and agent instructions.
    • Updated navigation and demo narratives to reflect adoption-focused language.
  • Tests

    • Updated catalog smoke checks to validate the adoption template terminology and entries.

Walkthrough

The PR replaces graft terminology with adoption across ADRs, design documents, demo materials, example catalog data, annotations, template descriptions, and smoke-catalog checks. It also renames the ADR navigation target and validates the ADOPTION template.
