Todo

The plan, in order. Nothing is built. Design questions are settled in AGENTS.md; remaining spec detail is settled at its own milestone.

Milestones

• 0 — Scaffold. package.json per §6, tsconfig.json, .npmrc (save-exact=true), the Docker tooling, renovate.json (§9), and .gitea/workflows/ci.yml gating branches: runs-on: docker-host, actions pinned to semver tags.
• 1a — The directive grammar (spec/flavour.md): inline/block/leaf directive forms, attributes, escaping, nesting, canonical form, the opaque-carry spelling, the raw-HTML input policy.
• 1b — Block node syntaxes in spec/flavour.md: panel, expand/nestedExpand, the media family, the pipe-vs-directive table rule and the directive table form, task and decision lists, layout, extensions, syncBlock.
• 1c — Inline node syntaxes and marks in spec/flavour.md: mention, emoji, status, date, inlineCard, mediaInline; underline, subsup, textColor, border; the spelling for text nodes whose whitespace CommonMark cannot hold (literal newlines, leading or trailing spaces) — escape-based, never literal, since pipe cells trim and pad.
• 1d — Corpus start (§10): checked-in ADF ↔ canonical-markdown fixture pairs per spec'd node.
• 2 — adfToMarkdown. First real code — decide here where §10's coverage check lives.
• 3 — markdownToAdf. The CommonMark parser is the largest single component. The raw-HTML element mapping is empty until milestone 6, so at 0.1.0 every raw-HTML construct in input is an error result.
• 4 — Round-trip property tests over the corpus, both ways — the thing that proves 2 and 3. Generators emit editor-normal ADF (§2).
• 5 — Release pipeline, ship 0.1.0. Publish-on-version-change (§9), NPM_TOKEN secret, the repo made public first (§6). 0.1.0 is the markdown round-trip: both markdown directions, the types, isAdfDocument. The build lands here: a build tsconfig emitting JS and .d.ts to dist/ (the dev config's allowImportingTsExtensions forces noEmit, so the build config needs rewriteRelativeImportExtensions), plus exports/files in package.json. The maintainer's bump PR also removes private: true, the guard against any earlier publish.
• 6 — The HTML dialect spec. Element-by-element mapping, the data-* fidelity scheme, the opaque-carry form, and the documented foreign-element set htmlToAdf accepts.
• 7 — HTML, ship 0.2.0. adfToHtml, htmlToAdf, the composed markdownToHtml / htmlToMarkdown. CommonMark spec suite runs against markdownToHtml from here (§10).
• 8 — CLI. A later goal, shaped around the personas once the library exists.

The ADF inventory to cover

From Atlassian's structure reference — not the whole schema: real payloads also carry taskList/taskItem, decisionList/decisionItem, layoutSection/layoutColumn, blockCard/embedCard, extension/bodiedExtension/inlineExtension and placeholder, none documented there. The documented set is the floor: the floor gets designed syntax, the rest rides the opaque carry (§3) until it does too.

Top-level block	blockquote bodiedSyncBlock bulletList codeBlock expand heading mediaGroup mediaSingle multiBodiedExtension orderedList panel paragraph rule syncBlock table
Child block	blockTaskItem extensionFrame listItem media nestedExpand tableCell tableHeader tableRow
Inline	date emoji hardBreak inlineCard mediaInline mention status text
Marks	border code em link strike strong subsup textColor underline

Plain markdown covers blockquote, bulletList, codeBlock, heading, orderedList, paragraph, rule, listItem, hardBreak, text, and the code, em, link, strike and strong marks. Everything else is what the flavour is for.
