v1.1.0

1.1.0 - Generic Embedded Contributions - 2026-08-06

Added

• Added the generic anchored embedded-contribution API and contributor guide in docs/embedded-contributions.md. A contribution can register a logical telemetry project from a descriptor resource in its own classloader without colliding with the host mod's conventional descriptor.
• Added contribution ABI 1 with independent project consent, destinations, queueing, logical project attribution, and live catalog reconciliation.

Changed

• Advanced the coordinator bridge to protocol 3. Protocol-2 providers are ineligible to own generic contribution projects; existing bootstrap callers remain source and binary compatible.
• Existing EmbeddedTelemetryBootstrap.bootstrap(JavaPlugin) source and binary behavior remains supported. New contributors should use the anchored API and a namespaced descriptor resource.
• Active contribution candidates now emit stats heartbeats only when their logical project is elected, enabled, stats-consented, heartbeat-eligible, and routed to a configured destination. Retiring a contribution removes it from new consent and heartbeat snapshots while retaining queued envelopes for replay.
• 1.1.0 MVP contributions are hosted-only; conventional projects retain custom endpoint support. Established same-ID contribution winners are not automatically hot-replaced or failed over, so a server restart is required before that project ID can elect a replacement.
• Aggregate heartbeats are separated by resolved destination, and stopped contribution services reject non-setup operations instead of buffering them for a later start.
• Physical host identifiers, host versions, source paths, and descriptor hashes are used for local election diagnostics; normal envelopes attribute the logical project and logical plugin version. Existing loaded-mod metadata keeps its prior behavior.
