+todo.md's `Next ID = N` gives its ID, the release of the plan's top row (the next release)
+gives its release, and its Score is todo.md's `Score = …` formula over the scores below and
+the weight todo.md's goal table gives goal 1.1. The test that files into the repository's
+own todo.md fails the gate when the plan's shape drifts from what this script reads.

+A security item scores R, S and C 1, since the fix is a version bump, and A and G 8, since a

+way one installs other tools, which image scanners then flag.
