+# AIOS v0.6 compatibility
+
+AI Operations Specification repository v0.6.0 delivers the exploratory
+[canonical examples and extension model](https://github.com/DeepAgentLabs/ai-operations-spec/tree/v0.6.0/specification/v0.6).
+Artifacts still declare `spec_version: "0.4-draft"`; the existing schemas,
+conformance rules and compatibility catalog are unchanged. Independent review
+remains pending; the repository release does not establish stable conformance.
+
+Continue routing by artifact spec_version through the existing compatibility catalog. The newest specification directory is not a schema version. Unified reports remain MCP-local.
+
+## Dependencies and examples
+
+No runtime dependency floor changes or package patch release is needed for this
+documentation alignment. The AIOS layer adds no Python runtime API.
+
+To inspect the canonical artifacts, check out AIOS `v0.6.0`, run
+`uv sync --extra dev` and `make check` there, then read
+`specification/v0.6/examples/manifest.json`. It distinguishes valid fixtures
+from schema-invalid and semantic-invalid controls. These checks need no sibling
+package and do not constitute independent implementation evidence.
+
+Producer metadata belongs only in permitted `attributes` or reverse-domain
+`extensions` entries; it cannot redefine core vocabulary. Consumers that
+re-emit an artifact must preserve unknown extension JSON values. Extension
+contract validation is separate from core validation. A namespace does not
+certify the payload, safety, authority or successful execution.
