About This Manual
This manual is Adapt's authoritative user documentation. It describes the
behavior of the running implementation on main, which is the source of truth.
The documents in ../spec/ are implementation
specifications, not a roadmap or a promise of future behavior.
Unimplemented ideas are labeled Future work. Known implementation defects are documented as limitations. They are not described as working behavior. See the documentation contract for the maintenance rules and scope.
