-> [!IMPORTANT]
-> **Claw Code 在这里并不是一个严肃的生产级项目。**
-> 这个代码库更像是一个博物馆的展品，而不是一个产品推介。它是一个由螃蟹（crab）驱动的工件，由带爪子的 gajae（小龙虾）维持生命，由智能体清扫和贴标签，并根据上述的工具（harnesses）自动维护。
->
-> 正如项目理念中所描述的，这并不旨在像普通产品代码库那样由人工操作。它是一个**由智能体管理的展品 (agent-managed exhibit)**：当螃蟹保持水箱运转时，工具会规划、执行、验证、标记并保存该工件。
->
-> 如果你想要实际运行工作任务，请从 **[LazyCodex](https://github.com/code-yeongyu/lazycodex)** 或 **[Gajae-Code](https://github.com/Yeachan-Heo/gajae-code)** 开始。如果你想研究 Claw Code 时刻这个奇怪的小化石，请继续往下看。
->
-> 有关这一理念背后更详细的公开解释，请参阅[这里](https://x.com/realsigridjin/status/2039472968624185713)。

-Claw Code 是 `claw` CLI 智能体工具的公开 Rust 实现。
-规范的实现位于 [`rust/`](./rust)，此代码库当前的事实来源是 **ultraworkers/claw-code**。
-
-> [!IMPORTANT]
-> 首先请阅读 [`USAGE.md`](./USAGE.md) 以了解构建、认证、CLI、会话和一致性工具（parity-harness）工作流。关于文件提交/导航问题，请参阅 [导航和文件上下文 (Navigation and file context)](./docs/navigation-file-context.md)。关于本地兼容 OpenAI 的模型和离线技能设置，请参阅 [本地兼容 OpenAI 提供商及技能设置 (Local OpenAI-compatible providers and skills setup)](./docs/local-openai-compatible-providers.md)。Windows 用户可以跳转至以 PowerShell 为主的 [Windows 安装和发布快速入门 (Windows install and release quickstart)](./docs/windows-install-release.md)。构建完成后，请首先使用 `claw doctor` 进行健康检查，查看 [`rust/README.md`](./rust/README.md) 获取 crate 级别的详细信息，阅读 [`PARITY.md`](./PARITY.md) 了解当前的 Rust 移植检查点，并查阅 [`docs/container.md`](./docs/container.md) 了解优先使用容器的工作流。
->
-> **ACP / Zed 状态：** `claw-code` 尚未发布 ACP/Zed 守护进程或 JSON-RPC 入口点。请运行 `claw acp`（或 `claw --acp`）查看当前状态，而不是从源代码布局中猜测；`claw acp serve` 目前仅作为可发现性的别名，返回状态并以退出码 0 结束，真正的 ACP 支持仍在 `ROADMAP.md` 中单独追踪。有关公开的 JSON 契约，请参阅 [`docs/g011-acp-json-rpc-status-contract.md`](./docs/g011-acp-json-rpc-status-contract.md)。
-
-## 当前代码库结构
-
- **`rust/`** — 规范的 Rust 工作区和 `claw` CLI 二进制文件
- **`USAGE.md`** — 针对当前产品表面的面向任务的使用指南
- **`PARITY.md`** — Rust 移植一致性状态和迁移说明
- **`ROADMAP.md`** — 活跃的路线图和清理待办事项
- **`PHILOSOPHY.md`** — 项目意图和系统设计框架
- **`src/` + `tests/`** — 配套的 Python/参考工作区和审计辅助工具；不是主要的运行时表面
-
-## 快速入门
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> [!WARNING]
-> **`cargo install claw-code` 会安装错误的东西。** crates.io 上的 `claw-code` crate 是一个已废弃的存根（stub），它会放置 `claw-code-deprecated.exe` — 而不是 `claw`。运行它只会打印 `"claw-code has been renamed to agent-code"`。**请勿使用 `cargo install claw-code`。** 请从源码构建（本代码库）或安装上游二进制文件：
-> ```bash
-> cargo install agent-code   # 上游二进制文件 — 安装为 'agent.exe' (Windows) / 'agent' (Unix)，而不是 'agent-code'
-> ```
-> 本代码库 (`ultraworkers/claw-code`) **仅支持从源码构建** — 请遵循以下步骤。
-
-```bash
-# 1. 克隆并构建
-git clone https://github.com/ultraworkers/claw-code
-cd claw-code/rust
-cargo build --workspace
-
-# 2. 设置您的 API 密钥（Anthropic API 密钥 — 不是 Claude 订阅）
-export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-..."
-
-# 3. 验证所有配置是否正确
-./target/debug/claw doctor
-
-# 4. 运行提示词
-./target/debug/claw prompt "say hello"
-
-# 5. 启动交互式会话
-./target/debug/claw
-```
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> **Windows (PowerShell)：** 二进制文件是 `claw.exe`，而不是 `claw`。使用 `.\target\debug\claw.exe` 或运行 `cargo run -- prompt "say hello"` 以跳过路径查找。
-
-### Windows 设置
-
-**PowerShell 是一种支持的 Windows 路径。** 您可以使用任何适合您的终端 shell。Windows 上常见的入门问题是：
-
-1. **首先安装 Rust** — 从 <https://rustup.rs/> 下载并运行安装程序。完成后关闭并重新打开终端。
-2. **验证 Rust 是否在 PATH 中：**
-   ```powershell
-   cargo --version
-   ```
-   如果失败，请重新打开终端或运行 Rust 安装程序输出的 PATH 设置步骤，然后重试。
-3. **克隆并构建**（在 PowerShell、Git Bash 或 WSL 中均可）：
-   ```powershell
-   git clone https://github.com/ultraworkers/claw-code
-   cd claw-code/rust
-   cargo build --workspace
-   ```
-4. **运行**（PowerShell — 注意 `.exe` 和反斜杠）：
-   ```powershell
-   $env:ANTHROPIC_API_KEY = "sk-ant-..."
-   .\target\debug\claw.exe prompt "say hello"
-   ```
-

-## 构建后操作：定位二进制文件并验证
-
-在 `claw-code/rust/` 中运行 `cargo build --workspace` 后，`claw` 二进制文件已构建，但**不会**自动安装到您的系统中。以下是定位文件和验证构建是否成功的方法。
-
-### 二进制文件位置
-
-`cargo build --workspace` 后，在 `claw-code/rust/` 目录中：
-
-**Debug 构建（默认，编译较快）：**
- **macOS/Linux：** `rust/target/debug/claw`
- **Windows：** `rust/target/debug/claw.exe`
-
-**Release 构建（已优化，编译较慢）：**
- **macOS/Linux：** `rust/target/release/claw`
- **Windows：** `rust/target/release/claw.exe`
-
-如果您运行 `cargo build` 时没有添加 `--release`，则二进制文件位于 `debug/` 文件夹中。
-
-### 验证构建是否成功
-
-直接使用其路径测试二进制文件：
-
-```bash
-# macOS/Linux (debug 构建)
-./rust/target/debug/claw --help
-./rust/target/debug/claw doctor
-
-# Windows PowerShell (debug 构建)
-.\rust\target\debug\claw.exe --help
-.\rust\target\debug\claw.exe doctor
-```
-
-无需实时凭据的 PowerShell 冒烟测试命令：
-
-```powershell
-$env:CLAW_CONFIG_HOME = Join-Path $env:TEMP "claw config home"
-New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path $env:CLAW_CONFIG_HOME | Out-Null
-Remove-Item Env:\ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, Env:\ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN, Env:\OPENAI_API_KEY -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
-.\rust\target\debug\claw.exe help
-.\rust\target\debug\claw.exe status
-.\rust\target\debug\claw.exe config env
-.\rust\target\debug\claw.exe doctor
-```
-
-如果这些命令成功执行，说明构建正常工作。`claw doctor` 是您的首个健康检查工具 — 它会验证您的 API 密钥、模型访问权限和工具配置。
-
-### 可选：添加到 PATH
-
-如果您希望在任何目录下都不用输入完整路径即可运行 `claw`，请选择以下方法之一：
-
-**选项 1：符号链接 (macOS/Linux)**
-```bash
-ln -s $(pwd)/rust/target/debug/claw /usr/local/bin/claw
-```
-然后重新加载 shell 并测试：
-```bash
-claw --help
-```
-
-**选项 2：使用 `cargo install` (所有平台)**
-
-构建并安装到 Cargo 的默认位置（`~/.cargo/bin/`，通常已在 PATH 中）：
-```bash
-# 在 claw-code/rust/ 目录下
-cargo install --path . --force
-
-# 然后在任何地方都可以运行
-claw --help
-```
-
-**选项 3：更新 shell 配置文件 (bash/zsh)**
-
-将此行添加到 `~/.bashrc` 或 `~/.zshrc`：
-```bash
-export PATH="$(pwd)/rust/target/debug:$PATH"
-```
-
-重新加载 shell：
-```bash
-source ~/.bashrc  # 或 source ~/.zshrc
-claw --help
-```
-
-### 故障排除
-
- **"command not found: claw"** — 二进制文件在 `rust/target/debug/claw`，但未在您的 PATH 中。请使用完整路径 `./rust/target/debug/claw` 或按照上述方法进行软链接/安装。
- **"permission denied"** — 在 macOS/Linux 上，如果缺少可执行权限（罕见情况），您可能需要运行 `chmod +x rust/target/debug/claw`。
- **Debug vs. release** — 如果构建运行缓慢，说明您处于 debug 模式（默认）。在 `cargo build` 中添加 `--release` 以获得更快的运行时速度，但这会使构建本身花费 5-10 分钟。
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> **认证：** claw 需要一个 **API 密钥** (`ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, `OPENAI_API_KEY` 等) — 暂不支持 Claude 订阅登录作为认证途径。
-
-在验证二进制文件可运行后，执行工作区测试套件：
-
-```bash
-cd rust
-cargo test --workspace
-```

 833. **DONE — Native Ollama provider support via `OLLAMA_HOST` env var** — PR #3213 showed the routing gap: local model names like `qwen3:8b` don't match any provider prefix and `OPENAI_BASE_URL` was the only workaround. Ollama users had to set two env vars (`OPENAI_BASE_URL` + `OPENAI_API_KEY`) and unset Anthropic vars. Fix: (1) `OLLAMA_HOST` env var takes priority over all other routing; when set, all models route to the local OpenAI-compatible endpoint; (2) no API key required — placeholder token used for Authorization header; (3) model names with colons/dots bypass strict `provider/model` syntax validation when `OLLAMA_HOST` is set; (4) `detect_provider_kind()` checks `OLLAMA_HOST` first in the routing cascade; (5) `ProviderClient` dispatch uses `from_ollama_env()` when `OLLAMA_HOST` is set; (6) `OLLAMA_CONFIG` constant added to `openai_compat.rs`; (7) `from_ollama_env()` method constructs client from env with no auth requirement; (8) updated `USAGE.md` and `docs/local-openai-compatible-providers.md` to recommend `OLLAMA_HOST` as the preferred env var; (9) added `test_ollama_host_bypasses_model_validation` unit test.

-834. **DONE — Local-model syntax bypass only covered Ollama-shaped tags, not bare LM Studio/llama.cpp aliases** — follow-up to #833/PR #3213. `is_local_openai_model_syntax()` waived strict `provider/model` syntax under `OPENAI_BASE_URL` only when the model name contained a `.` or `:` (Ollama-tag-shaped). A local server registering a model under a bare alias with none of those characters — for example an LM Studio custom name or a llama.cpp `--alias` value like `mistral` — still failed CLI-parse-time validation unless the user discovered the `local/` prefix workaround. Fix: (1) `is_local_openai_compatible_base_url()` in `openai_compat.rs`, already used to waive the API-key requirement for loopback/private-network base URLs, is now `pub` and re-exported from the `api` crate root; (2) `is_local_openai_model_syntax()` in `rusty-claude-cli`'s `main.rs` calls it against the configured `OPENAI_BASE_URL` and accepts any non-empty model name when the host is local/private, matching the existing `OLLAMA_HOST` bypass; (3) remote/hosted `OPENAI_BASE_URL` gateways keep the stricter dot/colon-tag heuristic so a mistyped bare name doesn't silently route to a paid hosted API; (4) `local/` remains the explicit escape hatch for slash-containing IDs regardless of host; (5) added an LM Studio section and updated routing notes in `docs/local-openai-compatible-providers.md`.

 - Use the `openai/` prefix for OpenAI-compatible gateways when you need prefix routing to win over ambient Anthropic credentials, for example `--model "openai/gpt-4.1-mini"` with OpenRouter.
 - For local servers, prefer the exact model ID reported by the server (`qwen3:latest`, `llama3.2`, etc.). If your local gateway exposes slash-containing IDs, prefix the exact slug with `local/` so Claw routes through OpenAI-compatible transport while sending the rest verbatim, for example `--model "local/Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-7B-Instruct"`.
- When `OPENAI_BASE_URL` points at a loopback or private-network address (`localhost`, `127.0.0.1`, `10.x`, `192.168.x`, `172.16-31.x`), Claw accepts **any** non-empty model name — bare aliases like `mistral` work with no dot, colon, or slash required. This covers LM Studio and llama.cpp server setups that register models under a plain `--alias`, not just Ollama-style tagged names (`llama3.2`, `qwen2.5-coder:7b`). `local/` is still needed only to preserve slash-containing IDs verbatim (e.g. Hugging Face repo IDs for vLLM/mlx-lm).
- Against a remote/hosted OpenAI-compatible gateway (not local/private), Claw keeps the stricter `provider/model` or dot/colon-tag requirement so a mistyped bare name doesn't silently route to a paid hosted API.
+- If you have multiple provider keys in your environment, `OPENAI_BASE_URL` plus local-looking tags such as `llama3.2` or `qwen2.5-coder:7b` selects the local OpenAI-compatible route; use `local/` for slash-containing local IDs.
 - Tool workflows need model/server support for OpenAI-compatible tool calls. Plain prompt smoke tests can pass even when slash/tool workflows still fail because the server returns an incompatible tool-call shape.

-# Asolaria for claw-code — a compact, tamper-evident wire format + addressing model for the agent event firehose
-
-A **self-contained, additive example** (no changes to claw-code core). It contributes one reproducible
-Rust benchmark plus a design write-up, aimed at the part of claw-code that moves the most bytes:
-**clawhip** — the event router that watches git commits, tmux sessions, GitHub PRs and agent-lifecycle
-events and pushes routing *out* of the agent context window so agents stay focused on implementation.
-
-The technique is from **Asolaria**, a multi-agent fabric built and operated *with* a claw-code-style
-autonomous harness. We contribute the parts that are (a) genuinely useful to a no-human-intervention
-harness and (b) **reproducible on your machine** — and we explicitly tag the parts that are
-architecture/vision, so nothing here backfires when an AI reviewer re-runs it.
-
-> **The bigger picture (tagged: vision/architecture, not a benchmark):** Asolaria's end goal is to make
-> *every device a surface* for one self-improving fabric — the device renders/addresses at ~0 local
-> token cost while the heavy reasoning is paged onto larger compute. You don't need to buy any of that
-> to use what's below; the wire format and 8-byte addressing stand on their own, measured.
-
---
-
-## 1. The measured win (REPRODUCIBLE — re-run it)
-
-clawhip's event stream is high-rate and, today, JSON text. Re-encoding the same records as a
-fixed-width binary wire (`json=0`) and optionally folding a SHA-256 hash-chain over them gives, on
-**200,000** agent-lane-event records (measured; ratios are the reproducible part, ns vary by CPU):
-
-| Per record | JSON (text) | `json=0` binary | binary + SHA-256 chain |
-|---|---|---|---|
-| **Wire size** | 153.2 B | **33.0 B — 4.64× smaller** | **65.0 B — 2.36× smaller** |
-| **Encode** | ~307 ns | **~28 ns — ~11× faster** | binary + one hash |
-| **Decode** | ~468 ns (parse) | **~0.8 ns — decode ≈ free** | field read = pointer offset |
-| **Integrity** | none | none | **per-record tamper-evident** |
-
- The lane is addressed by its **8-byte FNV-1a-64 handle**, so the lane string is never repeated;
-  fields are fixed-width little-endian, so decode is a pointer offset, not a parse.
- The chain link is `link_n = SHA256(link_{n-1} ‖ record_n)`. It adds **exactly +32 B** → 65.0 B/rec,
-  and any insert / delete / reorder / single-bit edit breaks the fold from that record on; a one-pass
-  verify **localizes the first altered record** (the bundled bench demonstrates this).
- **Honest nuance (not a compression claim):** `gzip` narrows the *raw-size* gap (crypto links are
-  high-entropy by design). The durable wins are **uncompressed wire size, decode speed, and
-  integrity** — the IPC / mmap / tail-replay path and a tamper-evident audit trail — not archival
-  compressibility.
-
-See [§6 Reproduce](#6-reproduce).
-
---
-
-## 2. The addressing capacity (LOGICAL / CANON — address *space*, not materialized things)
-
-Asolaria addresses subsystems with **BEHCS-1024**: a radix-1024 glyph tuple over a **60-dimension**
-coordinate. One ~12-byte tuple names a whole subsystem (room / lane / agent) and rehydrates losslessly
-to its full ~6,184-byte descriptor *via the fabric store*.
-
- **DERIVABLE (arithmetic):** the 12-byte wire handle alone is a **2⁹⁶ ≈ 7.9×10²⁸** namespace —
-  astronomically past any harness demand (a lifetime of events ≈ 10⁹–10¹²), so agents mint ids
-  independently with effectively zero collision risk and no coordinator.
- **LOGICAL / CANON (do NOT re-run as a count):** the full 60-D space is `(1024⁶⁰)⁵⁰ ≈ 10⁹⁰³⁰` —
-  the address space the scheme can *name*, not a count of things that exist.
- **Addressing, measured in-fabric (NOT reproduced by this example):** a ~12-byte glyph indexing its
-  ~6,184-byte descriptor is **520:1** — *addressing* (the tuple points into a store), **not** a codec
-  you can rehydrate from 12 bytes alone. We cite it; we do not claim the local bench reproduces it.
-
-> **Anti-overclaim:** 12 bytes do **not** enumerate 10⁹⁰³⁰ values (96 bits is ~10²⁸·⁹). The 10⁹⁰³⁰ is
-> the *scheme's* naming ceiling, not the wire handle's cardinality, and not a count of materialized
-> entities.
-
---
-
-## 3. Per-component benefit to claw-code
-
-Tags mark which lines are re-runnable here vs architecture.
-
- **8-byte FNV-1a-64 content-handle** [8-byte width MEASURED; content-addressing architecture] — a tmux
-  session name / `owner/repo#1204` / worktree path (30–120+ B) collapses to one fixed 8-byte handle
-  agents pass instead of prose; "did we already report this commit?" is an 8-byte equality check.
-  *(FNV-1a-64 is a non-cryptographic dedup/address hash — tamper-evidence is the SHA-256 chain's job.)*
- **json=0 binary wire** [MEASURED §1] — 4.64× smaller, decode≈free for clawhip's high-rate event log;
-  fixed width → O(1) seek / tail-follow / byte-range replay (record N at offset `N*width`).
- **BEHCS event envelope** [size/speed MEASURED; ordering architecture] — each event carries
-  `lane(8B) + seq + lamport + hash`; a stable total order `(lamport, lane, seq)` makes replay
-  deterministic across racing agents; a dropped event shows as a seq gap, a double-delivery as a dup.
- **60-D tuple addressing** [§2] — reference a whole subsystem by a tiny handle instead of inlining a
-  descriptor clawhip just evicted; sibling lanes share a coordinate prefix (route a lane-family by
-  prefix, not an id list).
- **SHA-256 hash-chain** [MEASURED §1/§6] — a no-human-intervention harness gets a tamper-evident audit
-  trail for +32 B/rec; the chain breaks on any mutation and a one-pass recompute localizes the first
-  bad record.
- **Stubbed rooms as RAM** [handle MEASURED; demand-paging architecture/vision] — a "room" (open files,
-  prior reasoning, sub-task ledger) lives as an out-of-context descriptor stub keyed by an 8-byte
-  handle; only the needed slice hydrates into context. Footprint scales with *active* agents, not
-  total. *(Paging against larger compute is the architecture model, not a deployed cluster.)*

-seq     = 4271                 # per-lane monotonic: 4270->4272 = dropped; repeated 4271 = dup
-lamport = 98142                # deterministic cross-lane order, no wall clock
-rec     = <33 B fixed-width payload>          # vs 153.2 B as JSON
-link    = SHA256(prev_link ‖ rec)             # 32 B; editing any past rec breaks every later link
-```

-## 5. Where this comes from
-
-Asolaria (public Host-8 lane — the council modules + this technique live here):
-**https://github.com/JesseBrown1980/asolaria-federation-1024**
-
-A multi-agent system built/operated with a claw-code-style autonomous harness. This PR contributes only
-the additive, reproducible slice.
-
---
-
-## 6. Reproduce
-
-```bash
-cd examples/asolaria-wire
-cargo run --release
-```
-
-It will, with no network or external services:
-1. Generate **200,000** synthetic agent-lane-event records (the clawhip lane-event shape).
-2. Encode each as JSON text and as the `json=0` fixed-width binary; report **B/record** and **ns/record**
-   → expect ~**153.2 / 33.0 B** and the **4.64× size / ~11× encode / decode≈free** figures.
-3. Account the SHA-256 chain (+32 B/rec) → **65.0 B/rec (2.36×)**.
-4. Run the **tamper test**: flip one bit in record #5, re-fold the chain, and confirm the verifier
-   reports **record #5** as the first broken link.
-
-Absolute ns vary by CPU; the **ratios and the tamper-detection** are what to verify. Run `gzip` on the
-two wire forms yourself to confirm the honest nuance in §1.

-## 7. Honesty self-check

- **Reproducible (re-run them):** 153.2→33.0 B (4.64×), +32 B chain → 65.0 B (2.36×), ~11× encode,
-  decode≈free, and SHA-256 tamper-localization. (200k records; ratios are the portable part.)
- **Derivable (arithmetic):** 2⁹⁶ ≈ 7.9×10²⁸ handle namespace.
- **Logical / CANON (do NOT re-run as a count):** the 60-D BEHCS-1024 ceiling `(1024⁶⁰)⁵⁰ ≈ 10⁹⁰³⁰` —
-  address space, not entities. The 520:1 glyph↔descriptor figure is **addressing measured in-fabric**,
-  cited, **not** reproduced by this example.
- **Architecture / vision (not benchmarked):** clawhip/MCP integration, Lamport ordering,
-  stubbed-rooms-as-RAM paging, every-device-as-surface. Presented as proposed mappings, not deployed
-  facts.
- **Anti-marketing:** `gzip` closes the raw-size gap; the size win is uncompressed-wire + decode-speed +
-  integrity, never compressibility. FNV-1a-64 is non-cryptographic dedup, not security.

 ## Model Aliases

-Short model aliases resolve to canonical model IDs. Because the router selects a
-provider from the resolved model, an alias also determines which backend and
-credentials are used — choose the alias for the provider you have an API key for.
-Alias resolution is case-insensitive (`OPUS` behaves the same as `opus`). Aliases
-are the bare short names listed below: a prefixed form such as `anthropic/opus`
-is not an alias, and is passed through as-is rather than expanded to
-`claude-opus-4-7`.
+Short names resolve to the latest model versions:

-| Alias | Resolves To | Provider | Auth env var |
-|-------|-------------|----------|--------------|
-| `opus` | `claude-opus-4-7` | Anthropic | `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` |
-| `sonnet` | `claude-sonnet-4-6` | Anthropic | `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` |
-| `haiku` | `claude-haiku-4-5-20251213` | Anthropic | `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` |
-| `grok`, `grok-3` | `grok-3` | xAI | `XAI_API_KEY` |
-| `grok-mini`, `grok-3-mini` | `grok-3-mini` | xAI | `XAI_API_KEY` |
-| `grok-2` | `grok-2` | xAI | `XAI_API_KEY` |
-| `kimi` | `kimi-k2.5` | DashScope (OpenAI-compatible) | `DASHSCOPE_API_KEY` |
-
-Anthropic aliases track the latest published model versions. xAI models honor
-`XAI_BASE_URL` and Kimi honors `DASHSCOPE_BASE_URL` for base-URL overrides. Alias
-resolution is implemented in `resolve_model_alias`
-([`crates/api/src/providers/mod.rs`](./crates/api/src/providers/mod.rs)); for
-provider-specific request handling see
-[`../docs/MODEL_COMPATIBILITY.md`](../docs/MODEL_COMPATIBILITY.md).
