Description

This cuts the 0.30.0 release notes. ## [Unreleased] moves under ## [0.30.0] — 2026-11-13, with an empty [Unreleased] above it. The founder asked for this release once the Databricks work merged. Once this merges and ci.yml passes on the merge commit, v0.30.0 gets tagged and release.yml publishes it.

release.yml's awk extractor, run on [0.30.0], finds 30 entries under Added, Changed and Fixed. Every commit since v0.29.0 (18) carries its own entry. The release contains:

• fix(duckdb): a contract that types text STRING passes the acquisition's schema gate #859: a contract that types text STRING passes the DuckDB acquisition's schema gate;
• feat(databricks): Unity Catalog primary and foreign keys from the contract #860: Unity Catalog primary and foreign keys from the contract;
• feat(databricks): amend-and-build runs the dbt job now and waits for it #861: fluid apply --mode amend-and-build runs a Databricks dbt build and waits for it;
• fix(local): no plan-validation failure for an expose an acquisition build lands #862: no plan-validation failure for an expose an acquisition build lands;
• feat(databricks): a Genie space for a data product (extensions.databricksGenie) #863, feat(databricks): one Genie space across deploying identities (parentPath); plan, diff and generate iac show it #869 and feat(databricks): fluid genie apply, one Genie space over several data products #870: Genie spaces for a product, for a product deployed from several identities, and over an estate (fluid genie apply);
• feat(databricks): data quality monitoring from a contract's freshness and completeness SLOs #864 and docs(databricks): correct three claims about data quality monitoring #866: Databricks data quality monitoring from freshness and completeness SLOs;
• feat(databricks): Unity Catalog metric views from exposes[].semantics #865: Unity Catalog metric views from exposes[].semantics;
• feat(test): Databricks live checks, a Unity Catalog results table and an AI/BI dashboard #867: fluid test checks a Databricks product live, with a results table and an AI/BI dashboard;
• fix!: table names stay readable in logs, Unity Catalog tag values as written, plan refuses a blocked residency #868: readable table names in logs, tag values as written, and fluid plan refusing a blocked residency;
• feat(databricks): a dbt job runs its contract's DQ rules as dbt tests #871: a dbt job runs its contract's data-quality rules as dbt tests;
• feat(databricks): a build can be a Lakeflow pipeline whose expectations are the contract's DQ rules #872: a build can be a Lakeflow pipeline whose expectations are the contract's rules;
• fix(databricks): a schema the contract stops using is destroyed, not left failing the apply #873: a schema the contract stops using is destroyed, its metric views and functions cleared first;
• fix(ai,receipts): ai models --provider takes the LLM registry; run ids never repeat #856 to fix(forge,ai): clean machine-readable output — forge.error event, no litellm banner, one contract event #858: AI provider selection and clean machine-readable output.

One correction makes the notes accurate. #871's entry said fluid plan refuses a data-quality rule no dbt test can run. fluid plan does not: fluid validate, fluid generate iac and fluid apply do, as measured while documenting #871 (forge_docs#210).
