docs: mark grow-and-learn shipped in the north-star#3566
Conversation
The grow-and-learn capability landed and was validated in production: retrieval of prior learnings into run context, propose-only capture from multi-round-review history behind an upstream privacy gate, and review-prose enrichment so proposals distill from what the rounds said. Update the capability entry and the rebaseline to reflect it, and note self-maintenance as the next control-plane-native thread.

Verdict: PASS
Docs-only update to a brainstorm/rebaseline note. No code, workflows, dependency, or runtime surface touched—nothing here can break CI, leak secrets, or widen an automation trust boundary. Scope is a status flip on the A1 "grow-and-learn" capability and the dependent A2 framing.
The claims hold up against the record. The three shipped phases—retrieve-and-apply, propose-only capture behind an upstream fail-closed privacy gate, and review-prose enrichment—match the trust-boundary pattern documented in docs/solutions/workflow-issues/required-github-token-for-agent-steps-2026-06-22.md: capability restricted by token scope, privileged writes (issue creation) kept in a separate step. The "propose-only, a human authors" framing is consistent with that gate. The "five authored learnings" figure is the one assertion I can't verify from the diff alone, but it's a self-reported program metric in a strategy doc, not a correctness claim.
Internal consistency checks pass: the rebaseline entry (line 51) and the Tier-2 entry (line 137) agree on the date, the phase decomposition, and the "shipped without the spine, as predicted" claim—which is coherent with the doc's own dependency model calling A1 "most control-plane-native of all." A2 is correctly re-pointed as the next thread without overclaiming it as done.
The doc still carries its honest hedges elsewhere (Phase 1 "not yet operationally verified"), so marking A1 as "SHIPPED + validated" reads as a deliberate distinction, not drift.
Blocking issues
None.
Non-blocking concerns
None. (The "five authored learnings" count is unverifiable from the diff, but it's a directional program metric in a brainstorm doc, not a load-bearing claim—no action needed.)
Missing tests
None. Documentation change; no behavior to cover.
Risk assessment
LOW. Single Markdown file, +17/-6, no executable surface. Worst case is a stale strategy note, and this change reduces staleness rather than adding it.

Records that the grow-and-learn capability shipped and was validated in production: retrieval of prior learnings into run context, propose-only capture from multi-round-review history behind an upstream fail-closed privacy gate, and review-prose enrichment so proposals distill from what the review rounds actually said. The first enriched batch yielded five authored learnings.
Updates the capability entry and the rebaseline section, and notes self-maintenance as the next control-plane-native thread now that this one is done.
