 # Changelog
 
-## [0.2.2] - 2026-02-20
+## [v0.8.5] - 2026-08-08 "Фиксация версии dcr-version и предупреждения совместимости / Config Version Pinning & Compatibility Warnings"
+
+### RU
+
+**Добавлено:**
+
+- **`package.dcr-version`** — опциональный pin версии CLI в `dcr.toml`.
+  `dcr new` / `dcr init` пишут текущую версию. При загрузке конфига:
+  - нет / пустой pin → warn «добавь dcr-version»;
+  - dcr старше pin → warn «обнови dcr»;
+  - dcr новее pin → warn «проверь changelog, подними pin»;
+  - равенство — тишина.
+    Команды не падают, только предупреждение (раз на path за процесс).
+
+### EN
+
+**Added:**
+
+- **`package.dcr-version`** — optional CLI version pin in `dcr.toml`.
+  `dcr new` / `dcr init` write the current version. On config load:
+  - missing / empty pin → warn "add dcr-version";
+  - dcr older than pin → warn "update dcr";
+  - dcr newer than pin → warn "check changelog, update pin";
+  - equal → silent.

+- **`dcr gen project-info`** — поля `target`, `target_dir`, `artifact_path`, `artifact_kind`, `source_roots`, `include_globs`, `exclude_globs`; пути абсолютные/канонические.
+- **`dcr build --print-artifact-path`** — после успешной сборки одна строка absolute path на stdout.
+- **`dcr gen … --quiet` / `-q`** — без human-лога на stdout для `compile-commands` / `project-info`.
+- **`.clangd`** — при первом `gen` создаётся с `CompilationDatabase: .dcr` (маркер `# managed by dcr gen`); ручной `.clangd` не перезаписывается.
+- **Хелперы** `canonicalize_path`, `atomic_write`, `ensure_dcr_dir`; pure `resolve_artifact_path` через `platform::*`.

+
+- **`compile_commands.json` перенесён** из корня проекта в **`.dcr/compile_commands.json`**.  
+  clangd находит базу через `.clangd` / `clangd.arguments --compile-commands-dir=.dcr`.  
+  CLion `misc.xml` и VSCode `settings.json` обновлены под новый путь.
+- **Атомарная запись** `compile_commands.json` (tmp + rename).
+- **`gen vscode` / `gen clion` launch/run** — `program`/`executable` через тот же artifact resolver, что `project-info` / `build-info.json` (Linux triple, Windows `.exe`, custom `target`/`filename`).

+
+- Launch-конфиги больше не указывают `target/<profile>/<name>` без triple на Linux.
+- Симлинки/mount: root и пути в compile database канонизируются best-effort.

+- **`dcr gen project-info`** — `target`, `target_dir`, `artifact_path`, `artifact_kind`, `source_roots`, `include_globs`, `exclude_globs`; absolute/canonical paths.
+- **`dcr build --print-artifact-path`** — one absolute artifact path line on stdout after a successful build.
+- **`dcr gen … --quiet` / `-q`** — suppress human success logs for gen subcommands.
+- **`.clangd`** — created on first gen with `CompilationDatabase: .dcr` (`# managed by dcr gen`); custom `.clangd` is not overwritten.
+- **Helpers** `canonicalize_path`, `atomic_write`, `ensure_dcr_dir`; pure `resolve_artifact_path` via `platform::*`.
+- **`dcr new` / `dcr init`** — add `.dcr/` to `.gitignore`.
+

+
+**Добавлено:**
+
+- **`dcr run -- <args>...`** — cargo-style: всё после bare `--` передаётся собранному бинарнику  
+  (`dcr run --release -- --test_help`). Работает и для прямого запуска, и для `[run].cmd`.
+- **Интеграционные / unit-тесты** — host target sections применяют `ldflags` без `--target`; проброс аргументов после `--`; парсер `split_double_dash`.
+
+**Изменено:**
+
+- **Native-сборка резолвит host triple** — без `--target` / без `build.target` конфиг-секции вида  
+  `[build.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu]` (и аналоги host) снова применяются (`cflags` / `ldflags` / toolchain).  
+  Раньше target был «пустым», секции молча игнорировались, а артефакты уже лежали под host triple — линковка без `-L`/`-l`.
+- **Пустой target** — `normalize_target_os("")` больше не warn'ит `Unknown target ''`.
+- **`dcr run --help` / man `dcr-run`** — документирован разделитель `--` и forwarding args.
+
+**Исправлено:**
+
+- **Нативные пути артефактов на Windows и macOS** — без явного `--target` / `build.target` артефакты снова сохраняются в `target/<profile>`, поэтому `dcr run` и flat-bin находят результат сборки.
+- Target-specific `ldflags` на native Linux/macOS/Windows (host triple) не доходили до линкера.
+- Ложный warning на пустой target string.
+
+### EN
+
+**Added:**
+
+- **`dcr run -- <args>...`** — cargo-style: arguments after a bare `--` are forwarded to the built binary  
+  (`dcr run --release -- --test_help`). Works for direct binary runs and `[run].cmd`.
+- **Tests** — host target sections apply `ldflags` without CLI `--target`; run-arg forwarding; `split_double_dash` unit tests.
+
+**Changed:**
+
+- **Native builds resolve the host triple** — without `--target` / without package `build.target`, host sections such as  
+  `[build.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu]` (and host equivalents) apply again (`cflags` / `ldflags` / toolchain).  
+  Previously the target was empty, those sections were silently ignored while artifacts already used the host triple path — link failed without `-L`/`-l` (e.g. sandbox micro-lang + `libsct-elf`).
+- **Empty target** — `normalize_target_os("")` no longer warns `Unknown target ''`.
+- **`dcr run --help` / man `dcr-run`** — document `--` and argument forwarding.
+
+**Fixed:**
+
+- **Native artifact paths on Windows and macOS** — without an explicit `--target` / `build.target`, artifacts again use `target/<profile>`, so `dcr run` and flat-bin find the build output.
+- Target-specific `ldflags` on native host builds not reaching the linker.
+- Spurious warning for an empty target string.

+- **Свой стиль статуса build** — фиксированная колонка глаголов: `project`, `compile`, `dep`, `ready`, `pack`, `done`, `run` (не cargo-clone).
+- **Cargo feature `archive`** — `fatfs` и упаковка FAT-образов опциональны (`cargo build --features archive`). Release CI собирает с feature; без feature `[archive]` даёт явную ошибку.
+- **Интеграционные тесты** — `flat_bin_nasm_build`, `package_build_target_used_without_cli_flag`, усилен workspace `clean --all`.
+- **Расширенный CI** — unit + integration на Linux/macOS/Windows, отдельный job с `--features archive`, rust-cache, clippy default + all-features.
+
+**Изменено:**
+
+- **CLI host triple больше не форсится** — без `--target` используется `build.target` пакета/member (важно для bare-metal / post_steps ISO).
+- **Relative `-I`/`-L`/`-T` (и `-isystem`/`-idirafter`)** в cflags/ldflags абсолютизируются относительно корня пакета (workspace CWD = root).
+- **`dcr clean --all`** — не спамит `target not found` по members без локального `target/` (общий root `target/`).
+- **`error` / `warn`** — красный / жёлтый, вывод на stderr; `Подсказка:` → `Hint:`.
+- **`dcr --help` / man** — добавлены `add`, `lint`, `setup`; unknown command → exit code 1.
+- **Сообщения NotFound** — `linker not found: ld.lld …` / `{tool} not found …` вместо сырого `os error 2`.
+
+### EN
+
+**Added:**
+
+- **Compile progress `[N/M]`** — live TTY line `compile  pkg v0.1.0  [12/41]` so long mono-package builds do not look hung.
+- **DCR status verbs** — fixed-width column: `project`, `compile`, `dep`, `ready`, `pack`, `done`, `run`.
+- **Cargo feature `archive`** — optional `fatfs` / FAT packing (`cargo build --features archive`). Release CI builds with the feature; without it `[archive]` errors clearly.
+- **Integration tests** — `flat_bin_nasm_build`, package `build.target` without CLI flag, stricter workspace `clean --all`.
+- **Expanded CI** — unit + integration on Linux/macOS/Windows, archive feature job, rust-cache, clippy default + all-features.
+
+**Changed:**

+- **CLI no longer forces host triple** — without `--target`, package/member `build.target` is used (bare-metal / ISO post_steps).
+- **Relative `-I`/`-L`/`-T` (and `-isystem`/`-idirafter`)** in flags are absolutized against the package root when workspace CWD is the root.
+- **`dcr clean --all`** — no spam for members without a local `target/` (shared root `target/`).

+- **`build.kind = "flat-bin"`** — сырой бинарный артефакт (расширение по умолчанию `.bin`):
+  - **NASM** — `-f bin`, прямой вывод `<stem>.bin`
+  - **FASM** — прямой вывод (ожидается `format binary` в исходнике)

+  - Требуется `llvm-objcopy` / `objcopy` / `gobjcopy` в PATH (кроме NASM/FASM direct)
+- **Секция `[archive]`** — после успешной сборки DCR собирает образ диска (FAT12/16/32): размер, offset, volume label, опциональный bootsector и `layout`. С 0.8.2 — за feature `archive`.
+- **Одиночные файлы в `build.roots`** — корень может быть файлом (`.c`, `.asm`, header), а не только каталогом.

+- **`dcr build --force` / `dcr run --force`** — force также перезапускает `build.steps` и `build.post_steps`.
+- **`dcr run` на workspace-only root** — если задан `[run].cmd`, сначала build + run по конфигу корня; иначе делегирование члену workspace.
+

+## [0.8.0] - 2026-07-18 "Модульный Движок Сборки, Новая Архитектура Ядра и Улучшение Workspaces / Modular Build Engine, New Core Architecture, & Workspace Improvements"
+
+### RU
+
+**Добавлено:**
+
+- **Выделенное ядро сборки (Build Engine extraction)** — вся логика оркестрации компиляции и сборки полностью вынесена из интерфейсного модуля `src/cli/build.rs` в изолированный, переиспользуемый модуль ядра `src/core/build/engine.rs`.
+- **Полиморфная модель языков (Трейт `Language`)** — введение абстрактного трейта `Language` (`src/core/build/language/mod.rs`). Логика поиска файлов, сопоставления расширений и компиляторов распределена по выделенным языковым бэкендам для C, C++ (включая шаги генерации Qt), LLVM IR и ассемблера (GAS, NASM, FASM, MASM).
+- **Абстракция сборщиков (Трейт `Builder`)** — введение трейта `Builder` для полиморфного управления процессами компиляции (`src/core/build/builder/mod.rs`). Логика вызова компиляторов семейства GCC/Clang вынесена в общий модуль `builder/cc_common.rs`, а MSVC — в `builder/msvc/`.
+- **Поязыковая конфигурация (`[build.<lang>]`)** — добавлена поддержка индивидуальных настроек для каждого языка в `dcr.toml` (например, `[build.c]`, `[build.cpp]`, `[build.asm]`), позволяя независимо настраивать компилятор, стандарт и флаги сборки.
+- **Интеграция путей зависимостей в Workspaces** — сборщик теперь автоматически инжектирует пути заголовков (включая исходники `src/` членов, папки `include/` и директорию `target/include`) и библиотек (`target/lib`, а также специфичные для целевой платформы папки сборки) зависимых членов workspace при сборке.
+- **Система событий `BuildReporter`** — весь вывод сборщика переведён на событийную модель (`src/core/build/report.rs`), что делает движок пригодным для программного встраивания (например, в IDE) без необходимости перехвата stdout/stderr.
+- **Поддержка отмены сборки** — добавлен потокобезопасный токен отмены (`Arc<AtomicBool>`), позволяющий безопасно прервать выполнение компиляции на любом этапе.
+- **Сохранение кастомных ключей TOML** — парсер `dcr.toml` переведен на `toml_edit`, что гарантирует сохранение всех неизвестных/пользовательских ключей, комментариев и форматирования при перезаписи файла (например, через `dcr add`).
+- **Разрешение заголовков для локальных path-зависимостей** — исправлена проблема, при которой потребители не могли найти заголовочные файлы статических/динамических библиотек, лежащие в упакованной папке `target/include` локальных path-зависимостей.
+- **Новая система интеграционных тестов** — старый громоздкий файл `tests/cli_basic.rs` разделен на изолированные и структурированные интеграционные тесты для каждой команды и фичи: `cli_build.rs`, `cli_deps.rs`, `cli_lint.rs`, `cli_new.rs`, `cli_qt.rs`, `cli_test.rs`, `cli_workspace.rs`.
+
+**Изменено:**
+
+- **Дедупликация генерации артефактов** — логика линковки бинарных файлов (ELF, PE, EXE), динамических библиотек (`.so`, `.dll`, `.dylib`) и архивации статических библиотек (`.a`, `.lib`) полностью перенесена в выделенный модуль `src/core/build/builder/artifact.rs`.
+- **Запуск членов workspace из корня** — команда `dcr run` при вызове из корня workspace-only проекта теперь запускает сборку выбранного пакета в контексте workspace (через флаг `--workspace`), исключая изолированные ошибки сборки.
+- **Отказ от глобального состояния** — все операции сборки изолированы внутри структуры `BuildContext`, обеспечивая многопоточную безопасность сборщика.
+- **Вынос логики кэширования** — проверка инкрементальных изменений, отслеживание заголовков (`#include`) и вычисление хэшей сборки перенесено в изолированный модуль `src/core/build/cache.rs`.
+- **Модуляризация кастомных шагов** — обработка этапа `build.steps` для препроцессоров вынесена в `src/core/build/steps.rs`.
+
+### EN
+
+**Added:**
+
+- **Dedicated Build Engine (`src/core/build/engine.rs`)** — decoupled the build orchestration logic completely from the CLI front-end wrapper in `src/cli/build.rs` to a reusable, decoupled core build engine.
+- **Polymorphic Language Model (`Language` trait)** — introduced the abstract `Language` trait (`src/core/build/language/mod.rs`). File scanning, compiler resolution, and flags handling are now encapsulated in dedicated language modules for C, C++ (including Qt code generation), LLVM IR, and ASM (GAS, NASM, FASM, MASM).
+- **Polymorphic Compilation Dispatch (`Builder` trait)** — introduced the `Builder` trait to generalize builder invocations (`src/core/build/builder/mod.rs`). Consolidated GCC/Clang logic into `builder/cc_common.rs` and Microsoft Visual C++ logic into `builder/msvc/`.
+- **Per-Language Configuration overrides (`[build.<lang>]`)** — introduced support for configuring language-specific compiler, standard, and flags (e.g. `[build.c]`, `[build.cpp]`, `[build.asm]`) independently in `dcr.toml`.
+- **Automatic Workspace Dependency Injection** — during workspace builds, include/lib paths of dependent workspace members (including their source headers, local `include/` folders, and build target `target/include` / `target/lib` folders) are automatically resolved and injected.
+- **`BuildReporter` Event System** — decoupled build orchestration output into a structured event-driven reporter model (`src/core/build/report.rs`), making DCR suitable for library embedding and IDE integrations without stderr capturing.
+- **Build Cancellation Support** — introduced thread-safe cancellation tokens (`Arc<AtomicBool>`) allowing clients to safely abort compile runs mid-execution.
+- **TOML Formatting & Custom Keys Preservation** — migrated the config editor to `toml_edit`, preserving all unknown/user-defined TOML keys, structures, and comments during file write operations (e.g., in `dcr add`).
+- **Path Dependencies Target Include Resolution** — local path dependencies configured via tables now correctly expose headers built and packaged into their `target/include` folder to consumer packages.
+- **Modular Integration Test Suite** — refactored the monolith `tests/cli_basic.rs` file into clean, specialized integration tests: `cli_build.rs`, `cli_deps.rs`, `cli_lint.rs`, `cli_new.rs`, `cli_qt.rs`, `cli_test.rs`, `cli_workspace.rs`.
+
+**Changed:**
+
+- **Consolidated Linking and Archiving** — artifact generation (linking executables/shared libraries and archiving static libraries) consolidated into a single `src/core/build/builder/artifact.rs` module.
+- **Workspace-Aware member execution** — `dcr run` executed at the workspace root of a `workspace_only` project now triggers the member build inside the workspace context using the `--workspace` parameter, preventing standalone build issues.
+- **Elimination of Global State** — removed global variables and states from the build core, encapsulating build logic inside isolated `BuildContext` structs for thread safety.
+- **Build Cache Separation** — relocated mtime tracking, incremental caching, and header-dependency checking logic to `src/core/build/cache.rs`.
+- **Modularized Pre-build Steps** — decoupled generator scripts and pre-build commands parsing into `src/core/build/steps.rs`.

+## [0.7.4] - 2026-06-17 "Qt Поддержка, Linting и Рефакторинг Архитектуры / Qt Support, Linting, & Architecture Refactor"
+
+### RU
+
+**Добавлено:**
+
+- **Нативная поддержка Qt** — добавлена автоматическая обработка мета-объектов (MOC, UIC, RCC) при включении `build.qt = true` в `dcr.toml`.
+- **Команда `dcr lint`** — статический анализ C/C++ через `clang-tidy`. Поддерживает `--fix` для автоматического исправления. Уважает `build.roots` и `build.src_disable` из конфига.
+- **Три новых ассемблерных бэкенда**:
+  - **MASM** (`compiler = "ml"` / `"ml64"`) — Microsoft Macro Assembler.
+  - **FASM** (`compiler = "fasm"`) — Flat Assembler.
+  - **LLVM IR** (`compiler = "llc"`) — компиляция `.ll` → объектный файл.
+- **Общий ASM-пайплайн** — линковка и архивирование вынесены в `core/builder/asm.rs`. Новый ассемблерный бэкенд теперь пишется за ~30 строк.
+- **Утилиты для файловой системы** — `to_hex()` и `home_dir()` вынесены в `utils/fs.rs`.
+- **Утилиты для сборки** — `normalize_target()`, `normalize_kind()`, `normalize_platform()`, `default_profile_flags()` вынесены в `utils/build.rs`.
+- **Утилиты для бэкендов** — `asm_lang_flag()`, `source_extensions()`, `elapsed_secs()` добавлены в `core/builder/common.rs`.
+
+- **Полноценная автоматизация Bare-Metal / Freestanding** — добавлен конфигурационный флаг `build.freestanding = true`. При его включении (или при обнаружении bare-metal таргета) DCR автоматически инжектирует флаг `-ffreestanding` на этапе компиляции, а также `-nostdlib` и `-static` на этапе линковки.
+- **Оптимизация артефактов (LTO и Strip)** — в `dcr.toml` добавлены параметры `build.lto` (авто-инжекция флага `-flto` для компилятора и линкера) и `build.strip` (автоматическое отсекание отладочной информации через флаг `-s` линкера).
+- **Контроль многопоточности сборки** — добавлен параметр `build.codegen-units`, позволяющий жестко ограничить максимальное количество параллельных потоков сборки для кастомного движка `parallel_build`.
+- **Управление паникой (Panic Abort)** — добавлен параметр `build.panic = "abort"`. Для C++ проектов он автоматически отключает генерацию таблиц раскрутки стека и исключений через флаги `-fno-exceptions`, `-fno-unwind-tables` и `-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables`.
+
+**Изменено:**
+
+- **Интеллектуальные дефолтные флаги (DCR Defaults)** — генерация дефолтных флагов оптимизации (`-O3`/`-O0`), отладки (`-g`) и предупреждений (`-Wall -Wextra`) теперь автоматически отключается для bare-metal и freestanding целей, если пользователь переопределил `build.cflags`.
+- **Глобальный вынос bare-metal детектора** — функция `is_bare_metal_target` вынесена в общие утилиты `src/utils/build.rs` для сквозного использования в конвейере сборки.
+- **Рефакторинг архитектуры**:
+  - `src/config.rs` переименован в `src/templates.rs`.
+  - Начата консолидация конфигурационной логики и оркестрации сборки.
+
+### EN
+
+**Added:**
+
+- **Native Qt support** — automatic meta-object handling (MOC, UIC, RCC) added when `build.qt = true` is set in `dcr.toml`.
+- **`dcr lint` command** — C/C++ static analysis via `clang-tidy`. Supports `--fix` for automatic fixes. Respects `build.roots` and `build.src_disable` from config.
+- **Three new assembler backends**:
+  - **MASM** (`compiler = "ml"` / `"ml64"`) — Microsoft Macro Assembler.
+  - **FASM** (`compiler = "fasm"`) — Flat Assembler.
+  - **LLVM IR** (`compiler = "llc"`) — compiles `.ll` files via `llc -filetype=obj`.
+- **Shared ASM pipeline** — linking and archiving logic consolidated into `core/builder/asm.rs`. Adding a new assembler backend now takes ~30 lines.
+- **Filesystem utilities** — `to_hex()` and `home_dir()` extracted to `utils/fs.rs`.
+- **Build utilities** — `normalize_target()`, `normalize_kind()`, `normalize_platform()`, `default_profile_flags()` extracted to `utils/build.rs`.
+- **Backend helpers** — `asm_lang_flag()`, `source_extensions()`, `elapsed_secs()` added to `core/builder/common.rs`.
+
+- **Full Bare-Metal / Freestanding Automation** — introduced the `build.freestanding = true` configuration option. When enabled (or when a bare-metal target is detected), DCR automatically injects `-ffreestanding` during compilation and both `-nostdlib` and `-static` during linking.
+- **Artifact Optimization (LTO & Strip)** — added `build.lto` (auto-injects `-flto` for compiler and linker) and `build.strip` (automatically strips debug symbols via linker `-s` flag) options to `dcr.toml`.
+- **Compilation Thread Control** — added the `build.codegen-units` option to strictly limit the maximum number of parallel jobs utilized by the custom `parallel_build` worker pool.
+- **Panic Behavior Management** — added `build.panic = "abort"` support. For C++ targets, it automatically strips exception handling and unwind tables via `-fno-exceptions`, `-fno-unwind-tables`, and `-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables`.
+
+**Changed:**
+
+- **Intelligent Default Flags Generation** — automated injection of fallback optimization (`-O3`/`-O0`), debug (`-g`), and warning (`-Wall -Wextra`) flags is now suppressed for bare-metal and freestanding builds if `build.cflags` are overridden.
+- **Centralized Bare-Metal Detection** — relocated the `is_bare_metal_target` helper to common build utilities (`src/utils/build.rs`) for unified access across the building core.
+- **Architectural Refactoring**:
+  - Renamed `src/config.rs` to `src/templates.rs`.
+  - Started consolidation of configuration and build orchestration logic.
+
+## [0.7.3] - 2026-06-13 "Оптимизация Зависимостей и VCS / Dependency Optimization & VCS"
+
+### RU
+
+**Добавлено:**
+
+- **Параметр `--vcs` для команд `new` и `init`** — добавлена возможность явно указывать систему контроля версий через `--vcs <git|none>`.
+- **Интеграция Git-информации в `--version`** — утилита теперь выводит текущий короткий хэш коммита и суффикс `-dirty`, если в репозитории DCR есть незакоммиченные изменения.
+- **Автоматическая генерация `.gitignore`** — при инициализации Git-репозитория автоматически создается файл `.gitignore` с исключением директории `/target`.
+- **Защита от вложенных репозиториев** — автоматическая инициализация Git теперь пропускается, если `dcr new` или `dcr init` запускаются внутри уже существующего Git-репозитория.
+- **Тесты для верификации VCS** — добавлены интеграционные тесты `new_vcs_options_work` и `init_vcs_options_work` для проверки логики инициализации репозиториев.
+
+**Изменено:**
+
+- **Полный отказ от библиотеки `git2`** — работа с Git (клонирование зависимостей, инициализация VCS, проверка статуса) переведена на вызовы системного `git` через `Command`. Это облегчает сборку проекта и убирает необходимость в фичах `vendored` и `openssl`.
+- **Миграция с `reqwest` на `ureq`** — в модуле обновления (`flag_update.rs`) тяжелый `reqwest` заменен на легковесный синхронный клиент `ureq 2.10`, что уменьшило оверхед и размер итогового бинарника.
+
+### EN
+
+**Added:**
+
+- **`--vcs` option for `new` and `init` commands** — introduced explicit version control system selection via `--vcs <git|none>`.
+- **Git metadata integration in `--version`** — the CLI now appends the current short commit hash and a `-dirty` suffix if there are uncommitted changes in the DCR repository.
+- **Automatic `.gitignore` generation** — Git repository initialization now automatically writes a `.gitignore` file excluding the `/target` directory.
+- **Nested repository prevention** — automatic Git initialization is now skipped if `dcr new` or `dcr init` is executed inside an already existing Git repository.
+- **VCS verification tests** — added `new_vcs_options_work` and `init_vcs_options_work` integration tests to ensure reliable repository behavior.
+
+**Changed:**
+
+- **Complete removal of `git2` dependency** — all Git actions (dependency fetching, VCS setup, status checks) are now delegated to the system `git` executable via `Command`. This simplifies compilation and drops the need for `vendored` and `openssl` features.
+- **Migrated from `reqwest` to `ureq`** — replaced the heavy `reqwest` crate in `flag_update.rs` with the lightweight synchronous `ureq 2.10` client, reducing overhead and the final binary size.
+
+## [0.7.2] - 2026-06-07 "Исправление Таргетов и Линковки / Target & Linker Fixes"
+
+### RU
+
+**Добавлено:**
+
+- Учтён `target_env` в `default_target_triple()` — Linux (gnu/musl) и Windows (msvc/gnu) теперь используют правильное окружение, а не хардкод.
+
+**Исправлено:**
+
+- **Сборка на macOS Apple Silicon падала с `_main` undefined** — `--target=` теперь передаётся и в ldflags, не только в cflags. `default_target_triple()` на macOS использует `std::env::consts::ARCH` вместо хардкода `x86_64`.
+- **Бейджи GitHub Stars и GPL-3.0 не рендерились в README** — блок бейджей переведён на чистый HTML.
+
+**Изменено:**
+
+- Вычисление таргета по умолчанию вынесено в общую функцию `default_target_triple()` — устранено дублирование в build, run, clean.
+
+### EN
+
+**Added:**
+
+- `default_target_triple()` now respects `target_env` — Linux (gnu/musl) and Windows (msvc/gnu) use the correct environment instead of hardcoded values.
+
+**Fixed:**
+
+- **macOS Apple Silicon builds failed with `_main` undefined** — `--target=` is now passed to ldflags, not just cflags. `default_target_triple()` uses `std::env::consts::ARCH` on macOS instead of hardcoded `x86_64`.
+- **GitHub Stars and GPL-3.0 badges not rendering in README** — badge block converted to pure HTML.
+
+**Changed:**
+
+- Default target resolution extracted into shared `default_target_triple()` — removed duplication across build, run, clean.
+
+## [0.7.1] - 2026-06-02 "Мультиархитектурное расширение / The Multi-Arch Expansion"
+
+### RU
+
+**Добавлено:**
+
+- Вывод `--help` для всех команд с цветным форматированием.
+- man-страницы (12 штук в `man/man1/`) и их установка во всех пакетах.
+- Валидация имен проектов в `dcr init` и `dcr new` (только ASCII буквы, цифры, `_` и `-`).
+- Метаданные `documentation` и `homepage` в `Cargo.toml`.
+- Оптимизация сборки: `opt-level = "z"`, LTO, `codegen-units = 1`, `panic = "abort"`, `strip = true`.
+- Поддержка новых архитектур (i686, armv7, riscv64gc, aarch64) в рабочих процессах и установочных скриптах.
+- Сборка пакетов `deb` и `rpm` для всех 5 архитектур Linux через `cargo-zigbuild`.
+- Пакеты AUR (`dcr-dev`, `dcr-dev-bin`) и сборка Snap в CI.
+
+**Изменено:**
+
+- Функция `validate_package_name` стала публичной.
+- Команды `gen`, `tree`, `fmt`, `setup` больше не игнорируют аргументы и используют цветной вывод.
+- Инструкция в README изменена с `| bash` на `| sh` для POSIX.
+- Отключена архитектура Windows 32-bit (GNU) из-за проблем со сборкой.
+
+**Исправлено:**
+
+- **`dcr new <invalid-name>` создаёт директорию, затем падает** — валидация теперь происходит до операций с файлами.
+- **`dcr init` создаёт dcr.toml, затем падает при невалидном имени директории** — то же исправление.
+- **Man-страницы отсутствовали после установки** — теперь устанавливаются через скрипты установки, пакетные менеджеры и Homebrew.
+- **Ложное срабатывание на букву диска в Windows** — в парсинге файлов зависимостей.
+- **CRLF `\r\n` ломает парсер зависимостей** — теперь обрабатываются смешанные окончания строк.
+- **Новая строка после обратного слеша не поглощалась** — в обработке escape-последовательностей `parse_d_file`.
+
+### EN
+
+**Added:**
+
+- `--help` for all commands with styled headers and usage lines.
+- Man pages (12 troff man pages in `man/man1/`) and their installation across all packaging formats.
+- Project name validation in `dcr init` and `dcr new` (ASCII letters, digits, `_`, `-` only).
+- `documentation` and `homepage` metadata in `Cargo.toml`.
+- Release profile optimizations (`opt-level = "z"`, LTO, `codegen-units = 1`, `panic = "abort"`, `strip = true`).
+- Linux i686, armv7, riscv64gc, aarch64 architecture support in release workflows and installation scripts.
+- Multi-arch `deb` and `rpm` package builds for all 5 Linux architectures via `cargo-zigbuild`.
+- AUR packages (`dcr-dev`, `dcr-dev-bin`) and Snap build in CI.
+
+**Changed:**
+
+- `validate_package_name` made public and callable from CLI commands directly.
+- `gen.rs`, `tree.rs`, `fmt.rs`, `setup.rs` no longer ignore arguments and use styled output.
+- README install instructions changed from `| bash` to `| sh` for POSIX compatibility.
+- Disabled Windows 32-bit (GNU) target due to build issues.
+
+Fixed:
+
+- **`dcr new <invalid-name>` creates directory then fails** — validation now happens
+  before any file operations.
+- **`dcr init` creates dcr.toml then fails on invalid directory name** — same fix.
+- **Man pages missing after installation** — now installed via install scripts,
+  package managers, and Homebrew.
+- **Windows drive letter false positive** — in dependency file parsing.
+- **CRLF `\r\n` breaks dependency parser** — now handles mixed line endings.
+- **Newline after backslash not consumed** — in `parse_d_file` escape handling.
+
+## [0.7.0] - 2026-06-02
+
+Added:
+
+- **OpenBSD and NetBSD target support** — full platform routing with dynamically generated target triples using `std::env::consts::ARCH` and `std::env::consts::OS`. Affects `build`, `run`, `clean`, and the platform module.
+- **`src/platform/bsd.rs`** — new dedicated BSD platform module shared by FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, providing `bin_path`, `lib_path`, `elf_path`, `efi_path`, and `shared_lib_path`.
+- **`build.out_dir` configuration option** — custom output directory that overrides the default `target/<triple>/<profile>` path for final artifacts. Supported in `build`, `run`, and config validation.
+- **`dcr fmt` command** — new CLI command that formats all C/C++ source files (`*.c`, `*.cpp`, `*.h`, `*.hpp`) in `src/` and `tests/` using `clang-format`.
+- **Incremental linking** — `needs_link()` function in `common.rs` that checks whether any object file is newer than the linked output, skipping unnecessary re-linking. Implemented for all backends (`unix_cc`, `msvc`, `gas`, `nasm`).
+- **`build.kind = "none"` and `"custom"`** — two new project kind types for special build scenarios where no standard artifact is produced.
+- **`install_bsd.sh`** — dedicated POSIX-compliant install script for BSD systems (FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD) with binary download and source build modes.
+- **Linux ARM64 support in `install.sh`** — added `Linux:aarch64|Linux:arm64` target triple detection for pre-built binary downloads.
+- **BSD OS detection in `install.sh`** — FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD detection and target triple resolution.
+- **`rust-toolchain.toml`** — explicit `stable` channel toolchain pinning.
+- **Nix support** — `flake.nix` for Nix package manager. Run via `nix run github:dexoron/dcr` or install with `nix profile install github:dexoron/dcr`. Contributed by community contributor.
+- **Snapcraft publish** — `dcrup` published on Snapcraft. Install with `sudo snap install dcrup`.
+- **Integration tests** — `build_with_target_config` (verifies `build.target = "linux"`) and `build_with_out_dir` (verifies custom output directory).
+- **`get_build_string_with_profile` made `pub`** — so `run.rs` can resolve custom output directory configuration.
+
 Changed:
+
+- **`build.target` semantics changed** — now strictly holds the target triple (e.g. `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`) or a short name (`linux`, `macos`, `windows`). No longer doubles as a custom output directory — that functionality moved to `build.out_dir`.
+- **`build.standard` made optional** — changed from `String` to `Option<String>`. Validation only enforces non-empty for non-ASM languages. Skipped in `dcr.toml` output when empty.
+- **`dcr run` with `out_dir`** — now resolves target directory respecting `build.out_dir` when configured, via `get_build_string_with_profile()` from `build.rs`.
+- **`collect_sources()` returns empty vec** instead of error when no source files are found, allowing `kind = "none"` or `kind = "custom"` projects to have no source files.
+- **CI/CD release workflow refactored** — `git2` made target-specific (no vendored-openssl on Windows), Zig-based cross-compilation for non-x86_64 Linux targets, Arch Linux package version sanitization (dashes → dots), NetBSD `gmake` symlink.
+- **README compatibility table** — FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD build/runtime status upgraded from community/best-effort to officially supported.
+- **Documentation rewritten** — available at [dcr.dexoron.su/docs](https://dcr.dexoron.su/docs) or in the `docs/` directory. Installation guides, commands, and reference updated to reflect current CLI and config format.
+- **Site rewritten** — `dcr-site` migrated to Docusaurus with internationalization (i18n) support, improved navigation, and updated content across all sections.
+- **Dev channel dependency check in `install.sh`** — checks for `python3` or `jq` before attempting dev channel installations.
+
+Fixed:
+
+- **`dcr run` stdout/stderr not inherited** — child process output was captured and manually printed, breaking interactive programs. Fixed by switching to `Command::status()`.
+- **Release CI race condition** — build matrix jobs could upload assets to a release that did not yet exist. Fixed by adding a dedicated `create-release` job.
+- **GHA release — stable toolchain override** — resolved Rust toolchain override issues in CI.
+- **Arch Linux package version sanitization** — version strings with dashes (e.g. `0.7.0-dev`) are invalid for Arch Linux `pkgver`. Fixed by replacing dashes with dots.
+- **GPG permissions after Docker** — Docker operations changed GPG directory ownership. Fixed by running `chown` after Docker commands.
+- **RPM package artifact paths** — RPM artifacts placed under `rpm/x86_64/` instead of `fedora/x86_64/`. Corrected in Dexoron Packages Index workflow.
+- **`install.sh` JSON parsing robustness** — added `jq` as primary parser with `python3` fallback for dev channel release lookups.
+
+Removed:
+
+- **`format_roots()` helper** — removed from `common.rs`. Was only used by the old error path in `collect_sources()`.
+- **Individual per-distro artifact download steps** — three separate `actions/download-artifact` steps replaced with unified `gh release download --clobber`.
+
+## [0.6.9] - 2026-05-28
+
+Added:
+
+- **Dexoron Packages Index** — new standalone CI workflow (`.github/workflows/dexoron-packages-index.yml`)
+  that automatically updates the `dexoron/packages` repository indexes after a release.
+  Supports Arch Linux (`repo-add`), Debian (`dpkg-scanpackages`), and Fedora (`createrepo_c`).
+  Triggered by `workflow_dispatch` or `workflow_run` on the Release workflow.
+
+- **Arch Linux native package** (`.pkg.tar.zst`) build inside the release workflow —
+  builds from source in an `archlinux:latest` Docker container using a dynamically
+  generated PKGBUILD.
+
+- **AUR publish support** — new `run_aur` workflow dispatch input and `publish-aur` /
+  `publish-aur-bin` jobs that push PKGBUILD / `.SRCINFO` to `aur.archlinux.org`.
+
+Changed:
+
+- **Release workflow refactored** — Linux packages (deb, rpm, snap, arch) and BSD
+  builds now use `strategy.matrix` instead of separate jobs. A new
+  `publish-dexoron-packages` job collects all package artifacts and uploads them
+  to the GitHub Release in one step. Removed standalone `build-arch-package`,
+  `build-snap`, `build-deb-rpm` jobs. The old `run_arch_native` input is now
+  `run_linux_packages`.
+
+- **Dexoron Packages Index workflow** extracted from `release.yml` into its own
+  file with support for Debian and RPM repository indexes in addition to Arch.
+
+- **git2 vendoring** — enabled `vendored-libgit2` and `vendored-openssl` features
+  for reproducible CI builds without system libraries.
+
+- **cargo-generate-rpm metadata** — updated to the current `package.metadata.rpm`
+  format (uses `files` table instead of `assets` array).
+
+Fixed:
+
+- **`--target=<triple>` no longer passed to GCC** — the flag is now only injected into
+  cflags when the resolved compiler name contains `"clang"`. GCC rejects this flag
+  with `unrecognized command-line option`.
+
+- **Workspace clean test** — removed assertions for member-local `target/`
+  directories. Workspace members share the root `target/` directory, so their
+  individual `src/<name>/target/` is never created.
+
+- **Release build test path** — corrected expected directory from `target/release`
+  to `target/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/release`.
+
+## [0.6.8] - 2026-05-27
+
+Added:
+
+- `build.cxx_standard` — separate C++ language standard for `.cpp`/`.cxx`/`.cc` files.
+  When set, overrides `build.standard` for C++ sources. Example:
+
+  ```toml
+  [build]
+  language = ["c", "c++"]
+  standard = "gnu11"
+  cxx_standard = "gnu++17"
+  ```
+
+- Variable substitution for `cflags`, `ldflags`, and `include` directory entries.
+  All `{version}`, `{version_major}`, `{name}`, `{profile}` and other step variables
+  are now available. Example:
+
+  ```toml
+  [build]
+  cflags = ['-DPROJECT_VERSION="{version}"']
+  ```
+
+- FreeBSD build support in CI — new `run_bsd` workflow input and `build-bsd` job
+  that cross-compiles `x86_64-unknown-freebsd` via `cargo-zigbuild`.
+
+Changed:
+
+- License changed from MIT to **GPL-3.0-or-later**. All source files now carry
+  the GPL-3.0 header. Default license in `dcr new` / `dcr init` changed to
+  `"GPL-3.0-or-later"`. README, FAQ, and CONTRIBUTING.md updated accordingly.
+- `get_list_with_profile_and_target` no longer duplicates list values when
+  `inherit = true` and the profile/target value is identical to the base value.
+
+Fixed:
+
+- Multi-language `language` array (e.g. `["c", "c++", "asm"]`) no longer drops `c++`
+  during internal parsing — `.cxx`/`.cpp`/`.cc` source files are correctly discovered
+  and compiled.
+- `-std=` flag is no longer passed to C++ files when only `standard` (C standard) is
+  configured — uses `cxx_standard` when available, otherwise skips `-std=` for C++
+  sources, avoiding clang error `invalid argument '-std=c11' not allowed with 'C++'`.
+- Object file collision: source files with the same stem but different extensions
+  (e.g. `gdt.cxx` and `gdt.S`) no longer overwrite each other. Object filenames
+  now include the original source extension (e.g. `gdt.cxx.o`, `gdt.S.o`).
+- MSVC backend compile step now detects language per source file extension instead
+  of using the global `language` field, fixing mixed C/C++ compilation with MSVC.
+- Assembler `-x` flag in `unix_cc.rs` and `gen.rs` is now placed **before** the
+  source file, as required by clang/gcc.
+- `{version}` variables in `build.clean` are now correctly substituted.
+
+## [0.6.7] - 2026-05-26
+
+Added:
+
+- `build.kind = "efi"` — UEFI PE32+ executable support. Links with `-shared -nostdlib -Wl,-dll -Wl,--subsystem,10`, output via `efi_path()` with `.efi` extension, rejected by `dcr run`.
+- `build.kind = "elf"` — bare-metal ELF executable support. Uses `elf_path()` output path, rejected by `dcr run`, no extra linker flags.
+- `build.filename` and `build.extension` in `dcr.toml` — complete control over the final artifact name without relying on `package.name`.
+  Example:
+
+  ```toml
+  [build]
+  filename = "KERNEL"
+  extension = "EFI"
+  ```
+
+  Produces `KERNEL.EFI` (works for `bin`, `staticlib`, and `sharedlib`).
+
+- Automatic injection of `--target=<build.target>` into compiler flags when `build.target` is set in `dcr.toml`. This greatly simplifies clang-based cross-compilation (especially for bare-metal targets like `aarch64-none-elf`).
+- Bare-metal targets (containing `none`, `-elf`, `eabi`, `baremetal`) no longer receive DCR's internal default flags (`-g`, `-Wall`, `-Wextra`, `-fno-omit-frame-pointer`, `-DDCR_DEBUG`, etc.). Prevents unwanted sections (`.comment`, debug info, etc.) that break custom linker scripts when `inherit = true`.
+- `build.ldscript` in `dcr.toml` — linker script path passed as `-T <path>` to the linker. Essential for bare-metal/embedded/freestanding targets.
+- `dcr build --verbose` — prints compiler/linker command lines (also works with `DCR_DEBUG` env var).
+- `dcr add <name>` without a source argument — if a registry is configured, DCR looks up the package by name and adds it as a version dependency.
+
+Fixed:
+
+- `build.target` declared in `dcr.toml` is now correctly used as the default target even when `--target` is not passed on the command line (previously the host target was always forced for config resolution).
+- `dcr run` with `--target` or `build.target` now correctly finds the binary in the arch-specific target directory.
+- `dcr run` checks profile-specific `build.{profile}.kind` before rejecting library builds (previously only checked `build.kind`).
+- `dcr clean` now reads `build.target` from `dcr.toml` when no `--target` flag is given.
+- Linux: target directory is now consistent — `target/<arch>-unknown-linux-gnu/<profile>/` (no stale `target/<profile>/`).
+- `dcr.lock` is now populated with all resolved dependencies (registry, path, git) instead of being always empty.
+- Git dependencies are now properly recognized and recorded in `dcr.lock`.
+- `is_registry_dep` correctly identifies version-based registry dependency tables (`{ version = "..." }`) and rejects tables with unknown keys.
+- `dcr test` accepts `--debug`/`--release` flags (defaults to `debug` profile instead of always `release`).
+- Build fingerprint cache (`build_cache_path`) now includes `target_dir` — different targets no longer share a single cache entry.
+- `object_path` no longer hardcodes the `src/` prefix — works correctly with custom `build.roots` (e.g. `roots = ["lib"]`).
+- `dcr update` now generates `.exe` candidates for all Windows targets, not just `x86_64-pc-windows-msvc`.
+- Compiler existence is verified before starting the build (clear error if compiler is not found in PATH).
+- Consolidated duplicate `OUTPUT_MUTEX` definitions — MSVC backend now uses the shared mutex from `common.rs`.
+- Registry cache root directory is created if missing (prevents cryptic errors when `~/.dcr/` does not exist).
+
+Changed:
+
+- `openssl` dependency is now conditional (`cfg(not(windows))`) — no longer pulled in on Windows, fixing Windows CI builds that lack Perl `Locale::Maketext::Simple`. On Linux (including musl cross-compilation) the vendored OpenSSL build is unchanged.
+
+## [0.6.6] - 2026-05-18
+
+Fixed:
+
+- Path dependencies now work correctly: `dcr add` stores them as `{ path =
+"./..." }` tables, `is_registry_dep` properly distinguishes registry strings
+  from path/git strings, and `deps/mod.rs` resolves both table-form and
+  legacy string-form path dependencies
+- Registry dependency paths no longer hardcoded to `project_root/dcr-index`;
+  now use `package_root_from_registry_info()` which resolves relative to the
+  registry cache root (`~/.dcr/`)
+- Registry dependencies are now actually built: `build_project_at()` is
+  called when `include_dir` or `lib_dir` is missing
+
+Added:
+
+- `SIGINT`/`Ctrl+C` handler via `ctrlc` crate — `dcr build` now checks
+  `BUILD_INTERRUPTED` flag at key points and aborts cleanly
+- `utils/build.rs` — extracted shared utilities: `parse_version_info`,
+  `normalize_target_os`, `resolve_compiler`, `primary_language`,
+  `resolve_pkg_config_flags` and config helpers. Eliminates code duplication
+  between `cli/build.rs`, `cli/run.rs`, `cli/clean.rs`, `cli/gen.rs`
+- `utils/fs.rs::with_dir` — extracted common directory-scoped execution
+- `run_command_sync_output` in `builder/common.rs` with global `OUTPUT_MUTEX`
+  — synchronized compiler output across all backends (unix_cc, gas, nasm, msvc)
+- New helper functions in `deps/register.rs`: `get_registry_cache_root`,
+  `package_root_from_registry_info`, `registry_include_dir`, `registry_lib_dir`,
+  `path_from_string_dep`
+- Unit tests for `register.rs` (`is_registry_dep`, `package_root_from_registry_info`),
+  `deps/mod.rs` (`path_dep_path`, `push_default_lib_dirs`),
+  `utils/build.rs` (`normalize_target_os`, `parse_version_info`)
+- `dcr tree` command — visual dependency tree viewer (similar to `cargo tree`)
+
+Removed:
+
+- Removed unused dependencies `indicatif` and `console` from `Cargo.toml`
+
+## [0.6.5] - 2026-05-13
+
+Added:
+
+- New dependency registry system
+- Package type support (`lib`, `app`, `none`) in `dcr.toml`
+- Library packaging functionality: automatically generates `include` and `lib` directories in `target/` for `lib` type projects
+- Expanded CI build targets:
+  - Linux: `aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu`, `x86_64-unknown-linux-musl`, `aarch64-unknown-linux-musl`
+  - Windows: `aarch64-pc-windows-msvc`, `x86_64-pc-windows-gnu`, `aarch64-pc-windows-gnullvm`
+
+Changed:
+
+- `src/core/deps/` modular architecture overhaul
+- Native platform pathing defaults for Linux (now dynamic architecture detection)
+- Improved `run` command output handling
+
+## [0.6.0] - 2026-05-12
+
+Added:
+
+- Full Git dependency support in `dcr.toml`
+  - Support for `git`, `branch`, `tag`, and `rev` fields
+  - Automatic cloning and checkout via `git2`
+  - Dependencies are stored in `target/<profile>/deps/git/`
+- New `dcr add` command for easy dependency management
+  - Short syntax: `github:user/repo`, `gitlab:user/repo`, `path:/to/lib`
+  - Automatic GitHub resolution for `git:user/repo`
+- Visual feedback for dependency fetching with in-place status updates ("Fetching" → "Fetched")
+- Modular dependency management architecture in `src/core/deps/`
+
+## [0.5.1] - 2026-04-12
+
+Fixed:
+
+- Windows compatibility for target-specific config without --target flag
+
+Added:
+
+- Default host target detection for automatic target overrides
+- Unit tests for target normalization
+
+Improved:
+
+- Config value lookup optimization
+- Documentation for Windows cross-compilation
+
+## [0.5.0] - 2026-04-10
+
+Added:
+
+- Full inheritance system for all config sections: `build`, `toolchain`, `run`, `workspace`, `dependencies`
+  - Order: `section.target.profile` → `section.profile.target` → `section.target` → `section.profile` → `section`
+  - `inherit = false` to disable inheritance completely
+  - Target-specific overrides: `[build.linux]`, `[toolchain.windows]`, `[run.macos]`, etc.
+- Cross-compilation support with `--target <triple>`
+  - Full target triples and short names (`linux`, `macos`, `windows`)
+  - Target-specific config sections: `[build.<target>]`, `[toolchain.<target>]`, `[run.<target>]`
+- Workspace and dependencies support target/profile inheritance
+- Multiple targets build: `[build.targets]` to build for multiple targets simultaneously
+- Target directory structure: `target/<target>/<profile>/` (native or triple)
+- Updated documentation with cross-compilation guide and Arch Linux examples
+
+## [0.4.0] - 2026-04-10
+
+Added:
+
+- Test command: `dcr test` and `dcr tests`
+  - Automatic compilation and linking for tests without manual configuration
+  - `dcr test --init` creates test template and header
+  - Test framework with EXPECT/SKIP macros in `dcr_test.h`
+- Improved test integration: added test CLI module and basic test suite
+- Documentation updates for testing functionality
+
+## [0.3.0] - 2026-03-18
+
+Added:
+
+- `dcr gen` command for IDE integration and build tool support
+- - `dcr gen project-info`: Output project metadata as JSON
+- - `dcr gen compile-commands`: Generate `compile_commands.json` for clangd and clang-tidy
+- - `dcr gen vscode`: Generate VS Code `.vscode/` integration (launch.json, tasks.json, settings.json)
+- - `dcr gen clion`: Generate JetBrains CLion `.idea/` integration (run configurations, build targets)
+- Full workspace support for all `gen` subcommands
+
+## [0.2.10] - 2026-03-16
+
+Added:
+
+- `build.steps` for pre-build generators (e.g., `moc`/`uic`/`rcc`)
+- `build.pkg_config` for `pkg-config`-driven cflags/ldflags resolution
+- `[toolchain]` support for `uic`, `moc`, `rcc`
+- Step command variables (`{uic}`, `{moc}`, `{rcc}`, `{cflags}`, `{stem}`, `{in}`, `{out}`)
+- `{profile}` placeholder support for dependency paths
+
+## [0.2.9] - 2026-03-14
+
+Added:
+
+- Header dependency tracking for fine-grained incremental builds (rebuilds when `#include` files change)
+- Complete internal rewrite of the builder module: merged duplicate compilation backends
+
+Changed:
+
+- `cflags` and `default_flags` no longer incorrectly leak to the linker stage in GCC/Clang
+- Reduced builder codebase size by over 20% while increasing reliability
+- Greatly expanded test suite with 34 new tests covering configuration, CLI errors, and path operations
+
+## [0.2.8] - 2026-03-06
+
+Added:
+
+- Workspace support (`[workspace]` with deps ordering)
+- `clean --all` for workspace members
+  Changed:
+- Project root discovery for `build/run/clean` (searches parent dirs)
+- Workspace paths are excluded from root source scan
+- Build output now uses a Cargo-style `Compiling <name> v<version>` line
+- Build time now reports total time for the whole build stage (workspace included)
+- Cache hits are silent (no compile line when nothing is rebuilt)
+- Safer build cache: fingerprints include headers and resolved library files
+
+## [0.2.7] - 2026-03-03
+
+Added:
+
+- Toolchain overrides via `[toolchain]` and env (`DCR_*`)
+- ASM `.S` preprocessing via GCC/Clang (`-x assembler-with-cpp`)
+
+## [0.2.6] - 2026-03-01
+
+Added:
+
+- `sharedlib` build kind (shared library output)
+- ASM projects (`build.language = "asm"`)
+- NASM and GAS backends
+- `build.platform` architecture hint for `-march` / `/arch`

 # FAQ
 
 ## What is this project about?
+
 `dcr` is a tool for managing C/C++ projects and their dependencies.
 It is inspired by Cargo, but it is not a direct equivalent of Makefile, CMake, or other classic build systems.
 
 The goal is to provide a simpler and easier-to-configure development workflow.
 
 ## How is the project developed?
+
 The project is written in Rust and is primarily developed by one maintainer, Dexoron.
 
 AI tools are used during development, but they do not write the project end-to-end. Their role is limited to supporting specific tasks (for example, suggestions, wording checks, and translations).
 
 ## Which tools are used for development?
+

+## Preamble
+
+The GNU General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
+software and other kinds of works.
+
+The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
+to take away your freedom to share and change the works. By contrast,
+the GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your freedom
+to share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains
+free software for all its users. We, the Free Software Foundation, use
+the GNU General Public License for most of our software; it applies
+also to any other work released this way by its authors. You can apply
+it to your programs, too.
+
+When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
+want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
+free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
+
+To protect your rights, we need to prevent others from denying you
+these rights or asking you to surrender the rights. Therefore, you
+have certain responsibilities if you distribute copies of the
+software, or if you modify it: responsibilities to respect the freedom
+of others.
+
+For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether
+gratis or for a fee, you must pass on to the recipients the same
+freedoms that you received. You must make sure that they, too, receive
+or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they
+know their rights.
+
+Developers that use the GNU GPL protect your rights with two steps:
+(1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer you this License
+giving you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify it.
+
+For the developers' and authors' protection, the GPL clearly explains
+that there is no warranty for this free software. For both users' and
+authors' sake, the GPL requires that modified versions be marked as
+changed, so that their problems will not be attributed erroneously to
+authors of previous versions.
+
+Some devices are designed to deny users access to install or run
+modified versions of the software inside them, although the
+manufacturer can do so. This is fundamentally incompatible with the
+aim of protecting users' freedom to change the software. The
+systematic pattern of such abuse occurs in the area of products for
+individuals to use, which is precisely where it is most unacceptable.
+Therefore, we have designed this version of the GPL to prohibit the
+practice for those products. If such problems arise substantially in
+other domains, we stand ready to extend this provision to those
+domains in future versions of the GPL, as needed to protect the
+freedom of users.
+
+Finally, every program is threatened constantly by software patents.
+States should not allow patents to restrict development and use of
+software on general-purpose computers, but in those that do, we wish
+to avoid the special danger that patents applied to a free program
+could make it effectively proprietary. To prevent this, the GPL
+assures that patents cannot be used to render the program non-free.
+
+The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.
+
+## TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+### 0. Definitions.
+
+"This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU General Public License.
+
+"Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds
+of works, such as semiconductor masks.
+
+"The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
+License. Each licensee is addressed as "you". "Licensees" and
+"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
+
+To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
+in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of
+an exact copy. The resulting work is called a "modified version" of
+the earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
+
+A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
+on the Program.
+
+To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
+permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
+infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
+computer or modifying a private copy. Propagation includes copying,
+distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
+public, and in some countries other activities as well.
+
+To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
+parties to make or receive copies. Mere interaction with a user
+through a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not
+conveying.
+
+An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices" to
+the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
+feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
+tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
+extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
+work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License. If
+the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
+menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
+
+### 1. Source Code.
+
+The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
+making modifications to it. "Object code" means any non-source form of
+a work.
+
+A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
+standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
+interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
+is widely used among developers working in that language.
+
+The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
+than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
+packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
+Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
+Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
+implementation is available to the public in source code form. A
+"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
+(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
+(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
+produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
+
+The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
+the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
+work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
+control those activities. However, it does not include the work's
+System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
+programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
+which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source
+includes interface definition files associated with source files for
+the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
+linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
+such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
+subprograms and other parts of the work.
+
+The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users can
+regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding Source.
+
+The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that same
+work.
+
+### 2. Basic Permissions.
+
+All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
+copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
+conditions are met. This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
+permission to run the unmodified Program. The output from running a
+covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
+content, constitutes a covered work. This License acknowledges your
+rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
+
+You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not convey,
+without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains in force.
+You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose of having
+them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you with
+facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with the
+terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do not
+control copyright. Those thus making or running the covered works for
+you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction and
+control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of your
+copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
+
+Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under the
+conditions stated below. Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10 makes
+it unnecessary.
+
+### 3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
+
+No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
+measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
+11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
+similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
+measures.
+
+When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
+circumvention of technological measures to the extent such
+circumvention is effected by exercising rights under this License with
+respect to the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit
+operation or modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against
+the work's users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid
+circumvention of technological measures.
+
+### 4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
+
+You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
+receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
+appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
+keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
+non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
+keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
+recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
+
+You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
+and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
+
+### 5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
+
+You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
+produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
+terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these
+conditions:
+
+-   a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
+    it, and giving a relevant date.
+-   b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
+    released under this License and any conditions added under
+    section 7. This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4
+    to "keep intact all notices".
+-   c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
+    License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy. This
+    License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
+    additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
+    regardless of how they are packaged. This License gives no
+    permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
+    invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
+-   d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
+    Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
+    interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
+    work need not make them do so.
+
+A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
+works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
+and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
+in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
+"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
+used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
+beyond what the individual works permit. Inclusion of a covered work
+in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
+parts of the aggregate.
+
+### 6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
+
+You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms of
+sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the machine-readable
+Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, in one of these
+ways:
+
+-   a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
+    Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
+    customarily used for software interchange.
+-   b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
+    written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
+    long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
+    model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
+    copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
+    product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
+    medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
+    more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
+    conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the Corresponding
+    Source from a network server at no charge.
+-   c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
+    written offer to provide the Corresponding Source. This
+    alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
+    only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
+    with subsection 6b.
+-   d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
+    place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
+    Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
+    further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the
+    Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to
+    copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
+    may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
+    that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
+    clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
+    Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the
+    Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
+    available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
+-   e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission,
+    provided you inform other peers where the object code and
+    Corresponding Source of the work are being offered to the general
+    public at no charge under subsection 6d.
+
+A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
+from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
+included in conveying the object code work.
+
+A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
+tangible personal property which is normally used for personal,
+family, or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for
+incorporation into a dwelling. In determining whether a product is a
+consumer product, doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of
+coverage. For a particular product received by a particular user,
+"normally used" refers to a typical or common use of that class of
+product, regardless of the status of the particular user or of the way
+in which the particular user actually uses, or expects or is expected
+to use, the product. A product is a consumer product regardless of
+whether the product has substantial commercial, industrial or
+non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent the only significant
+mode of use of the product.
+
+"Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
+procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to
+install and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User
+Product from a modified version of its Corresponding Source. The
+information must suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of
+the modified object code is in no case prevented or interfered with
+solely because modification has been made.
+
+If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
+specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
+part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
+User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
+fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
+Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
+by the Installation Information. But this requirement does not apply
+if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
+modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
+been installed in ROM).
+
+The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
+requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or
+updates for a work that has been modified or installed by the
+recipient, or for the User Product in which it has been modified or
+installed. Access to a network may be denied when the modification
+itself materially and adversely affects the operation of the network
+or violates the rules and protocols for communication across the
+network.
+
+Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
+in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
+documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
+source code form), and must require no special password or key for
+unpacking, reading or copying.
+
+### 7. Additional Terms.
+
+"Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
+License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
+Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
+be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
+that they are valid under applicable law. If additional permissions
+apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
+under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
+this License without regard to the additional permissions.
+
+When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
+remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
+it. (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
+removal in certain cases when you modify the work.) You may place
+additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
+for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
+
+Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
+add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders
+of that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
+
+-   a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
+    terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
+-   b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
+    author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
+    Notices displayed by works containing it; or
+-   c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material,
+    or requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
+    reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
+-   d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors
+    or authors of the material; or
+-   e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
+    trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
+-   f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
+    material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions
+    of it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient,
+    for any liability that these contractual assumptions directly
+    impose on those licensors and authors.
+
+All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
+restrictions" within the meaning of section 10. If the Program as you
+received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
+governed by this License along with a term that is a further
+restriction, you may remove that term. If a license document contains
+a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
+License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
+of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
+not survive such relicensing or conveying.
+
+If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
+must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
+additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
+where to find the applicable terms.
+
+Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
+form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions; the
+above requirements apply either way.
+
+### 8. Termination.
+
+You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
+provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
+modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
+this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
+paragraph of section 11).
+
+However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license
+from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally,
+unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and finally
+terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder
+fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means prior to
+60 days after the cessation.
+
+Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
+reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
+violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
+received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
+copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
+your receipt of the notice.
+
+Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
+licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
+this License. If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
+reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
+material under section 10.
+
+### 9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
+
+You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or run
+a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work
+occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
+to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. However,
+nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
+modify any covered work. These actions infringe copyright if you do
+not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
+covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
+
+### 10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
+
+Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
+receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
+propagate that work, subject to this License. You are not responsible
+for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
+
+An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
+organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
+organization, or merging organizations. If propagation of a covered
+work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
+transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
+licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
+give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
+Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
+the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
+
+You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
+rights granted or affirmed under this License. For example, you may
+not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
+rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
+(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
+any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
+sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
+
+### 11. Patents.
+
+A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
+License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based. The
+work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
+
+A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims owned
+or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
+hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
+by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
+but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
+consequence of further modification of the contributor version. For
+purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
+patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
+this License.
+
+Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
+patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
+make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
+propagate the contents of its contributor version.
+
+In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
+agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
+(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
+sue for patent infringement). To "grant" such a patent license to a
+party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
+patent against the party.
+
+If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
+and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
+to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
+publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
+then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
+available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
+patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
+consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
+license to downstream recipients. "Knowingly relying" means you have
+actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
+covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
+in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
+country that you have reason to believe are valid.
+
+If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
+arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
+covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
+receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
+or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
+you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
+work and works based on it.
+
+A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within the
+scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is conditioned on
+the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are specifically
+granted under this License. You may not convey a covered work if you
+are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is in the
+business of distributing software, under which you make payment to the
+third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying the
+work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the parties
+who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory patent
+license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work conveyed by
+you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily for and in
+connection with specific products or compilations that contain the
+covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement, or that patent
+license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
+
+Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
+any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
+otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
+
+### 12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
+
+If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot convey a
+covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under
+this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a
+consequence you may not convey it at all. For example, if you agree to
+terms that obligate you to collect a royalty for further conveying
+from those to whom you convey the Program, the only way you could
+satisfy both those terms and this License would be to refrain entirely
+from conveying the Program.
+
+### 13. Use with the GNU Affero General Public License.
+
+Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
+permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
+under version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License into a single
+combined work, and to convey the resulting work. The terms of this
+License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
+but the special requirements of the GNU Affero General Public License,
+section 13, concerning interaction through a network will apply to the
+combination as such.
+
+### 14. Revised Versions of this License.
+
+The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
+of the GNU General Public License from time to time. Such new versions
+will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in
+detail to address new problems or concerns.
+
+Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program
+specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU General Public
+License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of
+following the terms and conditions either of that numbered version or
+of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the
+Program does not specify a version number of the GNU General Public
+License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free
+Software Foundation.
+
+If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future versions
+of the GNU General Public License can be used, that proxy's public
+statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you to
+choose that version for the Program.
+
+Later license versions may give you additional or different
+permissions. However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
+author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
+later version.
+
+### 15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
+
+THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
+APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
+HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT
+WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
+LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR
+A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND
+PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE
+DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR
+CORRECTION.
+
+### 16. Limitation of Liability.
+
+IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR
+CONVEYS THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES,
+INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
+ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT
+NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR
+LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM
+TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER
+PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
+
+### 17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
+
+If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
+above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
+reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
+an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
+Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
+copy of the Program in return for a fee.
+
+END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+## How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+
+If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these
+terms.
+
+To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to
+attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively state
+the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
+"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+        <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+        Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+
+        This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
+        it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
+        the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
+        (at your option) any later version.
+
+        This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+        but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+        MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
+        GNU General Public License for more details.
+
+        You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
+        along with this program.  If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper
+mail.
+
+If the program does terminal interaction, make it output a short
+notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
+
+        <program>  Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+        This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'.
+        This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it
+        under certain conditions; type `show c' for details.
+
+The hypothetical commands \`show w' and \`show c' should show the
+appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, your
+program's commands might be different; for a GUI interface, you would
+use an "about box".
+
+You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or
+school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if
+necessary. For more information on this, and how to apply and follow
+the GNU GPL, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+
+The GNU General Public License does not permit incorporating your
+program into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine
+library, you may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary
+applications with the library. If this is what you want to do, use the
+GNU Lesser General Public License instead of this License. But first,
+please read <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/why-not-lgpl.html>.

-
-### Via `install.ps1` (Windows)
-
-```powershell
-irm https://dcr.dexoron.su/install.ps1 | iex
-```
-
-When executed, both scripts ask whether to:
-- download a prebuilt binary from GitHub Releases
-- or build the project from `git`
-
-Release assets:
-- `dcr-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`
-- `dcr-x86_64-apple-darwin`
-- `dcr-aarch64-apple-darwin`
-- `dcr-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc.exe`
-
-## Update
-
-- If DCR was installed from GitHub release assets, `install.sh`, `install.ps1`, or built manually:
-  - use `dcr --update`
-- If DCR is installed via `pacman/AUR`:
-  - update with your package manager: `paru/yay -Syu dcr` or `sudo pacman -Syu dcr`
-  - `dcr --update` detects package-managed installs and asks you to update via package manager
+---
 
 ## Quick Start
 
-Create a new project:
-`dcr new hello`
-
-Or initialize the current directory (the directory must be empty):
-`dcr init`
-
-Project structure:
-
-```txt
-hello/
-- src/
-- - main.c
-- dcr.toml
+```sh
+dcr new hello
+cd hello
+dcr run
 ```
 
-Build and run the project:
-`dcr run` or `dcr run --release`
+**Project structure:**
 
-## Commands
+```
+hello/
+├── dcr.toml       # project config
+└── src/
+    └── main.c
+```
 
-### `dcr new <name>`
-Creates a project with the specified name in the current directory.
+---
 
-### `dcr init`
-Creates a project in the current directory. The project name is taken from the directory name. The directory must be empty.
-
-### `dcr build [profile]`
-Builds the project. If no profile is specified, `--debug` is used.
-
-### `dcr run [profile]`
-Builds the project and runs the binary. If no profile is specified, `--debug` is used.
-
-Run manually:
-`./target/<profile>/main`
-
-### `dcr clean`
-Removes the `target` directory in the project root.
-
-## Build Profiles
-Two profiles are supported:
-- `--debug` (default) - flags: `-O0 -g -Wall -Wextra -fno-omit-frame-pointer -DDEBUG`
-- `--release` - flags: `-O3 -DNDEBUG -march=native`
-
-## Configuration
-The main project file is `dcr.toml`.
-
-Example `dcr.toml`:
+## dcr.toml Example
 
 ```toml
 [package]
 name = "hello"
 version = "0.1.0"
+
+[build]
 language = "c"
+standard = "c11"
 compiler = "clang"
+kind = "bin"
 
 [dependencies]
 ```
 
-## Requirements
-- Rust toolchain (`rustc`, `cargo`) - for building DCR from source
-- C compiler (`clang`, `gcc`, or others)
+---

-# FAQ
-
-## В чем суть проекта?
-`dcr` - это инструмент для управления C/C++ проектами и их зависимостями.
-Он вдохновлен Cargo, но не является аналогом Makefile, CMake или других классических систем сборки.
-
-Цель проекта - дать более простую и удобную в настройке среду для разработки.
-
-## Как разрабатывается проект?
-Проект написан на Rust и в основном развивается одним разработчиком - Dexoron.
-
-В работе используются ИИ-инструменты, но они не пишут проект целиком: их роль - помощь с отдельными задачами (например, советы, проверка формулировок, переводы и т.д.).
-
-## Какие инструменты используются для разработки?
-Основной стек разработки:
-- `RustRover` 2025 - IDE для разработки.
-- `Codex` (`GPT-5.3-Codex (medium)`) - основной ИИ-инструмент, интегрированный через JetBrains AI Chat.
-- `Rust` - основной язык проекта.
-- `Cargo` - инструмент сборки, тестов и управления зависимостями Rust-проектов.
-
-## Проект открытый?
-Да, проект открыт (Open Source).
-Вы можете предлагать идеи, находить ошибки и вносить изменения в код.
-
-Проект распространяется по лицензии MIT (см. `LICENSE`).
-
-## Как внести вклад?
-Спасибо за желание помочь проекту.
-Вы можете:
-- помочь с кодом;
-- помочь с переводом;
-- помочь с документацией;
-- предложить идею или сообщить о баге.
-
-### Если вы хотите внести изменения (код, перевод, документация)
-1. Сделайте форк нужного репозитория: `dexoron/dcr` (основной проект) или `dexoron/dcr-site` (сайт проекта).
-2. Внесите изменения с учетом правил из `CONTRIBUTING.md`.
-3. Отправьте изменения в свой форк.
-4. Создайте Pull Request.
-5. Дождитесь ревью.
-
-### Если вы хотите сообщить о проблеме или предложить идею
-1. Откройте нужный репозиторий: `dexoron/dcr` или `dexoron/dcr-site`.
-2. Перейдите во вкладку `Issues`.
-3. Создайте Issue и укажите тип (баг, предложение, вопрос/помощь).
-4. Опишите проблему или идею кратко и понятно.
-5. Дождитесь обратной связи.
-
-## Как установить `dcr`?
-Актуальные способы установки зависят от текущей версии проекта.
-Рекомендуемый путь:
-- проверьте инструкции в `README.md`;
-- если готового пакета для вашей платформы нет, соберите проект из исходников через `cargo build --release`.
-
-## Как быстро начать работу?
-Минимальный сценарий:
-1. Установите `dcr`.
-2. Создайте проект (или перейдите в существующий C/C++ проект).
-3. Инициализируйте конфигурацию `dcr`.
-4. Добавьте зависимости проекта.
-5. Запустите сборку через `dcr`.
-
-Подробные команды и примеры смотрите в `README.md` и документации проекта.
-
-## На какой стадии проект?
-`dcr` активно развивается.
-Это означает, что интерфейсы и поведение некоторых функций могут меняться между версиями.
-
-Перед обновлением рекомендуется читать changelog и проверять заметки к релизу.
-
-## С какими системами работает `dcr`?
-`dcr` ориентирован на современные среды разработки C/C++.
-Фактическая совместимость зависит от версии `dcr`, операционной системы и используемого toolchain.
-
-Перед началом работы проверьте в документации:
-- поддерживаемые ОС;
-- поддерживаемые компиляторы и линкеры;
-- ограничения конкретной версии.
-
-## Чем `dcr` отличается от Make/CMake?
-`dcr` не пытается быть прямой заменой Make/CMake.
-Главный фокус `dcr` - упростить управление проектом и зависимостями в стиле, близком к опыту Cargo.
-
-Если вам нужен низкоуровневый полный контроль над процессом сборки, классические инструменты могут быть привычнее.
-Если нужна более простая и единообразная модель конфигурации - `dcr` может быть удобнее.
-
-## Где смотреть документацию и примеры?
-Основные источники:
-- `README.md` в репозитории;
-- документация проекта (смотреть сайт проекта);
-- `Issues` для известных проблем и обсуждений;
-
-## Как правильно сообщить о баге?
-Чтобы баг-репорт можно было быстро воспроизвести, укажите:
-1. Версию `dcr`.
-2. ОС и версию компилятора/toolchain.
-3. Шаги воспроизведения.
-4. Ожидаемое поведение.
-5. Фактическое поведение и текст ошибки.
-6. Минимальный пример проекта (по возможности).
-
-Баги и проблемы отправляйте через `Issues` в соответствующем репозитории.

-# DCR (Dexoron Cargo Realization)
-
-DCR — это утилита для управления проектами на C/C++ в стиле Cargo.
-
-Текущая реализация написана на Rust.
-
-## Зачем DCR
-- Единая структура проекта без ручной настройки
-- Простые команды для типовых задач
-- Прозрачная компиляция и предсказуемые профили сборки
-
-## Возможности
-- Создание нового проекта или инициализация текущей директории
-- Сборка проекта в профилях `debug` и `release`
-- Запуск собранного бинарника
-- Очистка результатов сборки
-- Генерация минимального шаблона C-проекта
-- Обновление бинарника через `dcr --update` (GitHub Releases, не для pacman-установок)
-
-## Поддерживаемые платформы
-- Linux: `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`
-- macOS Intel: `x86_64-apple-darwin`
-- macOS Apple Silicon: `aarch64-apple-darwin`
-- Windows: `x86_64-pc-windows-msvc`
-
-## Установка
-
-### Пакетный менеджер
-
-**ArchLinux**
-```sh
-yay -S dcr # или paru и остальные менеджеры пакетов AUR 
-```
-
-### Из исходников
-
-```sh
-git clone https://github.com/dexoron/dcr.git
-cd dcr
-cargo build --release
-mkdir -p ~/.local/bin
-ln -sf "$PWD/target/release/dcr" ~/.local/bin/dcr
-```
-
-### Через install.sh (Linux/macOS)
-
-```sh
-curl -fsSL https://dcr.dexoron.su/install.sh | bash
-```
-
-### Через install.ps1 (Windows)
-
-```powershell
-irm https://dcr.dexoron.su/install.ps1 | iex
-```
-
-Оба скрипта при запуске спрашивают:
-- скачать готовый бинарник из GitHub Release
-- или собрать проект из `git`
-
-Релизные ассеты:
-- `dcr-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`
-- `dcr-x86_64-apple-darwin`
-- `dcr-aarch64-apple-darwin`
-- `dcr-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc.exe`
-
-## Обновление
-
-- Если DCR установлен из GitHub Releases, через `install.sh`, `install.ps1` или собран вручную:
-  - используйте `dcr --update`
-- Если DCR установлен через `pacman/AUR`:
-  - обновляйте через пакетный менеджер: `paru/yay -Syu dcr` или `sudo pacman -Syu dcr`
-  - `dcr --update` определяет пакетную установку и подсказывает обновляться через пакетный менеджер
-
-## Быстрый старт
-
-Создать новый проект:
-`dcr new hello`
-
-Или инициализировать текущую директорию (директория должна быть пустой):
-`dcr init`
-
-Структура проекта:
-
-```txt
-hello/
-- src/
-- - main.c
-- dcr.toml
-```
-
-Сборка и запуск проекта:
-`dcr run` или `dcr run --release`
-
-## Команды
-
-### `dcr new <name>`
-Создает проект в текущей директории с указанным именем.
-
-### `dcr init`
-Создает проект в текущей директории. Имя проекта будет равно имени директории. Директория должна быть пустой.
-
-### `dcr build [profile]`
-Собирает проект. Если профиль не указан, используется `--debug`.
-
-### `dcr run [profile]`
-Собирает проект и запускает бинарник. Если профиль не указан, используется `--debug`.
-
-Запуск вручную:
-`./target/<profile>/main`
-
-### `dcr clean`
-Удаляет папку `target` в корне проекта.
-
-## Профили сборки
-Поддерживаются два профиля:
-- `--debug` (по умолчанию) — флаги: `-O0 -g -Wall -Wextra -fno-omit-frame-pointer -DDEBUG`
-- `--release` — флаги: `-O3 -DNDEBUG -march=native`
-
-## Конфигурация
-Основной файл проекта — `dcr.toml`.
-
-Пример `dcr.toml`:
-
-```toml
-[package]
-name = "hello"
-version = "0.1.0"
-language = "c"
-compiler = "clang"
-
-[dependencies]
-```
-
-## Требования
-- Rust toolchain (`rustc`, `cargo`) - Для ручной сборки DCR
-- C-компилятор (`clang`, `gcc` или другие)
-
-## Релизы
-Релизы собираются автоматически через GitHub Actions (`.github/workflows/release.yml`) при пуше тега формата `v*`.
-
-## Лицензия
-См. файл `LICENSE`.

+# Changelog
+
+## 0.8.5 (2026-08-08)
+
+- **`package.dcr-version`** — optional CLI version pin in `dcr.toml`.
+  `dcr new` / `dcr init` write the current version. On config load:
+  - missing / empty pin → warn "add dcr-version";
+  - dcr older than pin → warn "update dcr";
+  - dcr newer than pin → warn "check changelog, update pin";
+  - equal → silent.
+    Commands do not fail, warning only (once per path per process).
+
+## 0.8.4 (2026-08-04)
+
+**Added:**
+
+- **`.dcr/` directory** — shared machine-readable build facts for IDE integrations:
+  - `.dcr/compile_commands.json`
+  - `.dcr/build-info.json` (`schemaVersion`, `artifact_path`, `profile`, …)
+  - `.dcr/toolchain.json` (compiler/debugger paths, moc/uic/rcc)
+  - `.dcr/ide/` (placeholder for IDE lock files)
+- **`dcr gen project-info`** — `target`, `target_dir`, `artifact_path`, `artifact_kind`, `source_roots`, `include_globs`, `exclude_globs`; absolute/canonical paths.
+- **`dcr build --print-artifact-path`** — one absolute artifact path line on stdout after a successful build.
+- **`dcr gen … --quiet` / `-q`** — suppress human success logs for gen subcommands.
+- **`.clangd`** — created on first gen with `CompilationDatabase: .dcr` (`# managed by dcr gen`); custom `.clangd` is not overwritten.
+- **Helpers** `canonicalize_path`, `atomic_write`, `ensure_dcr_dir`; pure `resolve_artifact_path` via `platform::*`.
+- **`dcr new` / `dcr init`** — add `.dcr/` to `.gitignore`.
+
+**Changed (breaking):**
+
+- **`compile_commands.json` moved** from project root to **`.dcr/compile_commands.json`**.  
+  clangd discovers it via `.clangd` / `--compile-commands-dir=.dcr`.  
+  CLion and VSCode generators updated accordingly.
+- **Atomic write** for compile_commands (tmp + rename).
+- **`gen vscode` / `gen clion` launch/run** — use the same artifact path resolver as `project-info` / `build-info.json`.
+
+**Fixed:**
+
+- Launch configs no longer hardcode `target/<profile>/<name>` without the Linux triple segment.
+- Symlink/mount roots: best-effort canonicalize for root and compile database paths.
+
+## 0.8.3 (2026-08-03)
+
+### Added
+
+- **`dcr run -- <args>...`** — cargo-style argument forwarding after a bare `--`  
+  (`dcr run --release -- --test_help`). Applies to direct binary runs and `[run].cmd`.
+- **Tests** — host target section `ldflags` without CLI `--target`; run-arg forwarding; `split_double_dash` unit tests.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Native builds resolve the host triple** — without `--target` / package `build.target`, host sections such as  
+  `[build.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu]` apply again (`cflags` / `ldflags` / toolchain).  
+  Previously the target was empty and those sections were ignored while artifacts already used the host triple path.
+- **Empty target** — no more `Unknown target ''` warning.
+- **`dcr run --help` / man `dcr-run`** — document `--` forwarding.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Native artifact paths on Windows and macOS** — without an explicit `--target` / `build.target`, artifacts use `target/<profile>`, so `dcr run` and flat-bin find the build output.
+- Target-specific `ldflags` missing on native host builds (e.g. micro-lang + `libsct-elf`).
+- Spurious empty-target warning.
+
+## 0.8.2 (2026-07-22)
+
+### Added
+
+- **Compile progress `[N/M]`** — live TTY status line (`compile  pkg v0.1.0  [12/41]`) so long mono-package builds do not look hung.
+- **DCR status style** — fixed-width verbs: `project`, `compile`, `dep`, `ready`, `pack`, `done`, `run`.
+- **Cargo feature `archive`** — optional FAT packing via `fatfs` (`cargo build --features archive`). Release CI builds with the feature; without it `[archive]` fails with a clear message.
+- **Tests** — `flat_bin_nasm_build`, package `build.target` without CLI `--target`, stricter workspace `clean --all`.
+- **CI expansion** — unit + integration on Linux/macOS/Windows, archive feature job, rust-cache, clippy default + all-features (see `.github/workflows/ci.yml`).
+
+### Changed
+
+- **No forced host triple from CLI** — without `--target`, package/member `build.target` is honored (bare-metal / ISO `post_steps` paths).
+- **Relative include/lib flags** (`-I`, `-i`, `-isystem`, `-idirafter`, `-L`, `-T`) absolutized against the package root under workspace builds.
+- **`dcr clean --all`** — no spam for members without a local `target/` (shared root `target/`).
+- **`error` / `warn`** — red / yellow on stderr; CLI fully English (`Hint:`).
+- **Help / man** — list `add`, `lint`, `setup`; unknown command exits with code 1.
+- **Tool NotFound** — `linker not found: ld.lld …` / `{tool} not found …` instead of raw `os error 2`.
+
+## 0.8.1 (2026-07-20)
+
+### Added
+
+- **`build.kind = "flat-bin"`** — raw binary (default `.bin`) for OS-dev payloads:
+  - **NASM** — `-f bin` → `<stem>.bin`
+  - **FASM** — direct output (`format binary` in source)
+  - **GAS / MASM / LLC** — object → `objcopy -O binary` → `<stem>.bin`
+  - **C/C++** — objects → freestanding link → `objcopy -O binary` → `<name>.bin`
+  - Requires `llvm-objcopy` / `objcopy` / `gobjcopy` except for NASM/FASM direct emit
+- **`[archive]` section** — FAT12/16/32 disk images after build (`output`, `format`, `size`, `offset`, `label`, `bootsector`, `layout`). From 0.8.2 requires feature `archive`.
+- **Single-file `build.roots`** — a root may be a single source or header file, not only a directory.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **`--force`** also re-runs `build.steps` and `build.post_steps`.
+- **`dcr run` on workspace-only root** — if `[run].cmd` is set, run that after build; otherwise delegate to a workspace member.
+
+## 0.8.0 (2026-07-18)
+
+### Added
+
+- **Dedicated Build Engine (`src/core/build/engine.rs`)** — decoupled the build orchestration logic completely from the CLI front-end wrapper in `src/cli/build.rs` to a reusable, decoupled core build engine.
+- **Polymorphic Language Model (`Language` trait)** — introduced the abstract `Language` trait (`src/core/build/language/mod.rs`). File scanning, compiler resolution, and flags handling are now encapsulated in dedicated language modules for C, C++ (including Qt code generation), LLVM IR, and ASM (GAS, NASM, FASM, MASM).
+- **Polymorphic Compilation Dispatch (`Builder` trait)** — introduced the `Builder` trait to generalize builder invocations (`src/core/build/builder/mod.rs`). Consolidated GCC/Clang logic into `builder/cc_common.rs` and Microsoft Visual C++ logic into `builder/msvc/`.
+- **Per-Language Configuration overrides (`[build.<lang>]`)** — introduced support for configuring language-specific compiler, standard, and flags (e.g. `[build.c]`, `[build.cxx]`, `[build.asm]`) independently in `dcr.toml`.
+- **Automatic Workspace Dependency Injection** — during workspace builds, include/lib paths of dependent workspace members (including their source headers, local `include/` folders, and build target `target/include` / `target/lib` folders) are automatically resolved and injected.
+- **`BuildReporter` Event System** — decoupled build orchestration output into a structured event-driven reporter model (`src/core/build/report.rs`), making DCR suitable for library embedding and IDE integrations without stderr capturing.
+- **Build Cancellation Support** — introduced thread-safe cancellation tokens (`Arc<AtomicBool>`) allowing clients to safely abort compile runs mid-execution.
+- **TOML Formatting & Custom Keys Preservation** — migrated the config editor to `toml_edit`, preserving all unknown/user-defined TOML keys, structures, and comments during file write operations (e.g., in `dcr add`).
+- **Path Dependencies Target Include Resolution** — local path dependencies configured via tables now correctly expose headers built and packaged into their `target/include` folder to consumer packages.
+- **Modular Integration Test Suite** — refactored the monolith `tests/cli_basic.rs` file into clean, specialized integration tests: `cli_build.rs`, `cli_deps.rs`, `cli_lint.rs`, `cli_new.rs`, `cli_qt.rs`, `cli_test.rs`, `cli_workspace.rs`.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Consolidated Linking and Archiving** — artifact generation (linking executables/shared libraries and archiving static libraries) consolidated into a single `src/core/build/builder/artifact.rs` module.
+- **Workspace-Aware member execution** — `dcr run` executed at the workspace root of a `workspace_only` project now triggers the member build inside the workspace context using the `--workspace` parameter, preventing standalone build issues.
+- **Elimination of Global State** — removed global variables and states from the build core, encapsulating build logic inside isolated `BuildContext` structs for thread safety.
+- **Build Cache Separation** — relocated mtime tracking, incremental caching, and header-dependency checking logic to `src/core/build/cache.rs`.
+- **Modularized Pre-build Steps** — decoupled generator scripts and pre-build commands parsing into `src/core/build/steps.rs`.
+
+## 0.7.4 (2026-06-17)
+
+### Added
+
+- **Native Qt support** — automatic meta-object handling (MOC, UIC, RCC) added when `build.qt = true` is set in `dcr.toml`.
+- **`dcr lint` command** — C/C++ static analysis via `clang-tidy`. Supports `--fix` for automatic fixes. Respects `build.roots` and `build.src_disable` from config.
+- **Three new assembler backends**:
+  - **MASM** (`compiler = "ml"` / `"ml64"`) — Microsoft Macro Assembler.
+  - **FASM** (`compiler = "fasm"`) — Flat Assembler.
+  - **LLVM IR** (`compiler = "llc"`) — compiles `.ll` files via `llc -filetype=obj`.
+- **Shared ASM pipeline** — linking and archiving logic consolidated into `core/builder/asm.rs`. Adding a new assembler backend now takes ~30 lines.
+- **Filesystem utilities** — `to_hex()` and `home_dir()` extracted to `utils/fs.rs`.
+- **Build utilities** — `normalize_target()`, `normalize_kind()`, `normalize_platform()`, `default_profile_flags()` extracted to `utils/build.rs`.
+- **Backend helpers** — `asm_lang_flag()`, `source_extensions()`, `elapsed_secs()` added to `core/builder/common.rs`.
+- **Full Bare-Metal / Freestanding Automation** — introduced the `build.freestanding = true` configuration option. When enabled (or when a bare-metal target is detected), DCR automatically injects `-ffreestanding` during compilation and both `-nostdlib` and `-static` during linking.
+- **Artifact Optimization (LTO & Strip)** — added `build.lto` (auto-injects `-flto` for compiler and linker) and `build.strip` (automatically strips debug symbols via linker `-s` flag) options to `dcr.toml`.
+- **Compilation Thread Control** — added the `build.codegen-units` option to strictly limit the maximum number of parallel jobs utilized by the custom `parallel_build` worker pool.
+- **Panic Behavior Management** — added `build.panic = "abort"` support. For C++ targets, it automatically strips exception handling and unwind tables via `-fno-exceptions`, `-fno-unwind-tables`, and `-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables`.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Intelligent Default Flags Generation** — automated injection of fallback optimization (`-O3`/`-O0`), debug (`-g`), and warning (`-Wall -Wextra`) flags is now suppressed for bare-metal and freestanding builds if `build.cflags` are overridden.
+- **Centralized Bare-Metal Detection** — relocated the `is_bare_metal_target` helper to common build utilities (`src/utils/build.rs`) for unified access across the building core.
+- **Architectural Refactoring**:
+  - Renamed `src/config.rs` to `src/templates.rs`.
+  - Started consolidation of configuration and build orchestration logic.
+
+## 0.7.3 (2026-06-13)
+
+### Added
+
+- **`--vcs` option for `new` and `init` commands** — introduced explicit version control system selection via `--vcs <git|none>`.
+- **Git metadata integration in `--version`** — the CLI now appends the current short commit hash and a `-dirty` suffix if there are uncommitted changes in the DCR repository.
+- **Automatic `.gitignore` generation** — Git repository initialization now automatically writes a `.gitignore` file excluding the `/target` directory.
+- **Nested repository prevention** — automatic Git initialization is now skipped if `dcr new` or `dcr init` is executed inside an already existing Git repository.
+- **VCS verification tests** — added `new_vcs_options_work` and `init_vcs_options_work` integration tests to ensure reliable repository behavior.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Complete removal of `git2` dependency** — all Git actions (dependency fetching, VCS setup, status checks) are now delegated to the system `git` executable via `Command`. This simplifies compilation and drops the need for `vendored` and `openssl` features.
+- **Migrated from `reqwest` to `ureq`** — replaced the heavy `reqwest` crate in `flag_update.rs` with the lightweight synchronous `ureq 2.10` client, reducing overhead and the final binary size.
+
+## 0.7.2 (2026-06-07)
+
+### Added
+
+- `default_target_triple()` now respects `target_env` — Linux (gnu/musl) and Windows (msvc/gnu) use the correct environment instead of hardcoded values.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **macOS Apple Silicon builds failed with `_main` undefined** — `--target=` is now passed to ldflags, not just cflags. `default_target_triple()` uses `std::env::consts::ARCH` on macOS instead of hardcoded `x86_64`.
+- **GitHub Stars and GPL-3.0 badges not rendering in README** — badge block converted to pure HTML.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Default target resolution extracted into shared `default_target_triple()` — removed duplication across build, run, clean.
+
+## 0.7.1 (2026-06-02)
+
+### Added
+
+- **`--help` for all commands** — `dcr build --help`, `dcr run --help`, `dcr new --help`,
+  `dcr init --help`, `dcr clean --help`, `dcr add --help`, `dcr fmt --help`,
+  `dcr setup --help`, `dcr tree --help`, `dcr gen --help`, `dcr --update --help`,
+  `dcr test --help`. All output uses styled headers (green) and usage lines (cyan).
+- **Man pages** — 12 troff pages in `man/man1/`: `dcr.1`, `dcr-build.1`,
+  `dcr-run.1`, `dcr-new.1`, `dcr-init.1`, `dcr-clean.1`, `dcr-add.1`, `dcr-test.1`,
+  `dcr-gen.1`, `dcr-fmt.1`, `dcr-tree.1`, `dcr-setup.1`.
+- **Man pages in all packaging** — install.sh, install_bsd.sh, AUR PKGBUILD,
+  Debian (cargo-deb), RPM (cargo-generate-rpm), Nix (postInstall), Homebrew
+  (resource), Snap, GitHub Release assets.
+- **Project name validation** — `dcr init` and `dcr new` now validate names before
+  creating files. Only ASCII letters, digits, `_` and `-` are allowed.
+- **`documentation` and `homepage` fields** — added to `Cargo.toml`.
+- **Release profile optimizations** — `opt-level = "z"`, LTO, `codegen-units = 1`,
+  `panic = "abort"`, `strip = true` for smaller binaries.
+- **Linux i686, armv7, riscv64 targets** — added to release workflow and install scripts.
+- **Linux musl i686, armv7 targets** — cross-compiled via zigbuild in CI.
+- **AUR packages** — `dcr-dev`, `dcr-dev-bin` publishing workflow.
+- **Snap publishing** — automated Snapcraft publishing in CI.
+- **Snap badge** — in README.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **`validate_package_name` made public** — callable from CLI commands.
+- **README platform table** — reorganized: libc variants as separate OS rows,
+  removed extra columns. Linux architecture list updated.
+- **`gen.rs` no-args output** — now uses styled output instead of raw `eprintln!`.
+- **`tree.rs`, `fmt.rs`, and `setup.rs`** — now accept arguments for `--help`.
+- **README install commands** — `| bash` → `| sh` for POSIX compatibility.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **`dcr new <invalid-name>` creates directory then fails** — validation now
+  happens before any file operations.
+- **`dcr init` on invalid directory name** — same fix.
+- **Man pages missing in installed packages** — now shipped in all formats.
+- **Windows drive letter false positive** — in dependency file parser.
+- **CRLF (`\r\n`) breaks dependency parser** — now handles mixed line endings.
+- **Newline after backslash not consumed** — in `parse_d_file` escape handling.
+
+## 0.7.0 (2026-06-01)
+
+### Added
+
+- **OpenBSD and NetBSD target support** — full platform routing with dynamic target triples using `std::env::consts::ARCH` and `std::env::consts::OS`. Affects `build`, `run`, `clean` commands and the platform module.
+- **`src/platform/bsd.rs`** — new BSD platform module (shared by FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD) providing `bin_path`, `lib_path`, `elf_path`, `efi_path`, `shared_lib_path`.
+- **`build.out_dir` config option** — custom output directory that overrides the default `target/<triple>/<profile>` path for final artifacts. Supported in `build`, `run`, and config validation.
+- **`dcr fmt` command** — new CLI command that formats all C/C++ source files (`*.c`, `*.cpp`, `*.h`, `*.hpp`) in `src/` and `tests/` using `clang-format`.
+- **Incremental linking** — `needs_link()` in `common.rs` checks if any object file is newer than the linked output, skipping unnecessary relinking. Implemented for all backends (`unix_cc`, `msvc`, `gas`, `nasm`).
+- **`build.kind = "none"` and `"custom"`** — two new project kinds for special build scenarios that don't produce standard artifacts.
+- **`install_bsd.sh`** — POSIX-compliant installation script for BSD systems (FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD) with binary download and source build modes.
+- **Linux ARM64 support in `install.sh`** — added `Linux:aarch64|Linux:arm64` target detection for pre-built binary downloads.
+- **BSD OS detection in `install.sh`** — detects FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD and determines target triple.
+- **`rust-toolchain.toml`** — explicit toolchain pinning to `stable` channel.
+- **Integration tests** — `build_with_target_config` (verifies `build.target = "linux"`) and `build_with_out_dir` (validates custom output directory).
+- **`get_build_string_with_profile` made `pub`** — so `run.rs` can determine custom output directory configuration.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **`build.target` semantics changed** — now strictly contains a target triple (e.g., `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu`) or short name (`linux`, `macos`, `windows`). No longer used as custom output directory — this functionality moved to `build.out_dir`.
+- **`build.standard` made optional** — changed from `String` to `Option<String>`. Validation only enforces non-empty for non-ASM languages. Skipped in `dcr.toml` output if empty.
+- **`dcr run` with `out_dir`** — now determines target directory respecting `build.out_dir` via `get_build_string_with_profile()` from `build.rs`.
+- **`collect_sources()` returns empty vector** instead of error when no sources are found, allowing `kind = "none"` or `kind = "custom"` projects with no source files.
+- **CI/CD release workflow refactored** — `git2` made target-specific (no vendored-openssl on Windows), Zig-based cross-compilation for non-x86_64 Linux targets, Arch Linux package version cleanup (dashes → dots), `gmake` symlink for NetBSD.
+- **README compatibility table** — FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD build/run status upgraded from "community/best-effort" to "officially supported".
+- **Documentation updated** — `build-section.md` describes new `build.target` and `build.out_dir` fields. `target-directory.md` rewritten to clarify the distinction.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **stdout/stderr not inherited in `dcr run`** — child process output was captured and manually printed, breaking interactive programs. Fixed by switching to `Command::status()`.
+- **Race condition in release CI** — matrix build jobs could upload assets to a release that didn't exist yet. Fixed by adding a dedicated `create-release` job.
+- **Release GHA — stable toolchain override** — fixed Rust toolchain override issues in CI.
+- **Arch Linux package version sanitization** — version strings with dashes (e.g., `0.7.0-dev`) are invalid for `pkgver`. Fixed by replacing dashes with dots.
+- **GPG permissions after Docker** — Docker operations changed GPG directory ownership. Fixed by running `chown` after Docker commands.
+- **RPM artifact paths** — RPM artifacts were placed in `rpm/x86_64/` instead of `fedora/x86_64/`. Fixed in Dexoron Packages Index workflow.
+- **JSON parsing reliability in `install.sh`** — added `jq` as primary parser with `python3` fallback for dev channel release lookup.
+
+### Removed
+
+- **`format_roots()` helper function** — removed from `common.rs`. Was only used by the old error handling path in `collect_sources()`.
+- **Per-distribution artifact download steps** — three separate `actions/download-artifact` steps replaced with unified `gh release download --clobber`.

+
+Artifacts: `target/<triple>/<profile>/<binary-name>` (Linux with explicit target).
+
+With `[archive]` in `dcr.toml`, a FAT disk image is packed after a successful build.
+
+## `dcr run`
+
+Builds (if sources are newer than artifacts) and runs the binary.
+
+```bash
+dcr run
+dcr run --release
+dcr run --force                   # force rebuild then run
+```
+
+On a **workspace-only** root: if `[run].cmd` is set, that command is used after build; otherwise DCR delegates to a workspace member.
+
+## `dcr clean`
+
+Removes `target/` directory (or `target/<target>/<profile>`).

+
+Without `--fix`, clang-tidy reports warnings and errors without modifying files.
+With `--fix`, clang-tidy applies automatic suggestions in place.

+## Registry not found
+
+```
+error: registry not found
+```
+
+**Solution:** Make sure `~/.dcr/config.toml` exists:
+
+```toml
+[registry.default]
+url = "https://index.dcr.pm"
+priority = 1
+```
+
+And check `DCR_INDEX_PATH`:
+
+```bash
+echo $DCR_INDEX_PATH
+```
+
+## Compiler not found
+
+```
+error: compiler not found
+```
+
+**Solution:** Ensure a compiler is installed and available in PATH.
+
+```bash
+which gcc
+which clang
+```
+
+Or specify explicitly via `[toolchain]` in `dcr.toml`.
+
+## Ctrl+C during build
+
+DCR handles SIGINT: interrupts the current compilation and exits with non-zero code.

+
+## Bootloader / pure NASM OS image
+
+Use `kind = "flat-bin"` (NASM `-f bin`) and optional `[archive]` for a FAT disk image.
+
+See [OS-dev recipe](/docs/recipes/os-flat-bin-archive).
+
+## Lock file
+
+`dcr.lock` is created during builds (`dcr build`) when registry dependencies are present. To force an update — delete `dcr.lock` and run `dcr build`.

+# Installation
+
+## dcrup (recommended)
+
+Install and switch DCR versions (stable / dev / night, pin `0.8.2`, optional build from source).
+
+### Linux / macOS / BSD / Windows (bash)
+
+```sh
+curl -fsSL https://sh.dcr-tool.ru | sh -s -- self-install
+export PATH="$HOME/.dcr/bin:$PATH"
+dcrup install stable
+```
+
+Non-interactive install of DCR in one shot:
+
+```sh
+curl -fsSL https://sh.dcr-tool.ru | sh -s -- install stable
+export PATH="$HOME/.dcr/bin:$PATH"
+```
+
+### Windows (PowerShell)
+
+```powershell
+irm https://ps1.dcr-tool.ru | iex
+# or download then run:
+# irm https://ps1.dcr-tool.ru -OutFile dcrup.ps1
+# powershell -File .\dcrup.ps1 self-install
+# $env:Path += ";$env:USERPROFILE\.dcr\bin"
+dcrup install stable
+```
+
+Optional cmd bootstrap (if you prefer `curl` of the cmd shim):
+
+```bat
+curl -fsSL -o dcrup.cmd https://cmd.dcr-tool.ru
+```
+
+After `self-install`, the command is **`dcrup`** (no `.sh` / `.ps1`): shims live in `~/.dcr/bin` (Unix) or `%USERPROFILE%\.dcr\bin` (Windows `dcrup.cmd`).
+
+### Common dcrup commands
+
+```sh
+dcrup install stable              # latest stable prebuilt
+dcrup install 0.8.2               # pin → 0.8.2@stable
+dcrup install 0.8.2@dev
+dcrup install stable --libc musl  # Linux: musl asset (default: gnu)
+dcrup install stable --build      # cargo build --features archive
+dcrup install night               # always build from branch dev HEAD

+- `bootsector`: written only when `offset` is omitted or `0`
+- `from` may be a glob; `{profile}` is substituted in paths

+freestanding = true
+filename = "kernel"

+
+Pipeline: objects → temporary linked ELF → `objcopy -O binary` → `kernel.bin`. Requires `objcopy` / `llvm-objcopy` in PATH.
+
+## Other assemblers
+
+| Tool | Notes |
+|------|--------|
+| **FASM** | Write `format binary` in the source; DCR writes `<stem>.bin` directly |
+| **GAS** | Assemble `.s` → obj → `objcopy -O binary` |
+| **LLC** | `language = "llvm_ir"` → obj → objcopy |
+| **MASM** | COFF obj → objcopy (needs binutils/LLVM objcopy) |
+
+## Notes
+
+- Single-file `roots` are supported: `roots = ["src/boot.asm"]`.
+- `--force` re-runs `build.steps` / `build.post_steps` as well as recompilation.
+- Prefer `kind = "elf"` if you need a relocatable ELF kernel without stripping to raw binary.

+## Merge rules
+
+Fields from `[build.<profile>]` are merged on top of `[build]`:

+- **Scalar fields** (strings, numbers, bools) — replaced
+- **Arrays** (`cflags`, `ldflags`, ...) — **appended** (extend the `[build]` array)
+
+Set `inherit = false` to disable array inheritance (only profile's own arrays are used).

+| `opt_level` | `"0"` | `"3"` |
+| `debug` | `true` | `false` |

+
+## Qt Support
+
+DCR provides native Qt support for automatic meta-object handling (MOC, UIC, RCC).
+
+Enable it by setting `build.qt = true` in `dcr.toml`. DCR will automatically detect Qt-related files (`.ui`, `.qrc`, `.h` with `Q_OBJECT`) and process them.
+
+```toml
+[build]
+qt = true
+```
+
+*Note: Requires `qt6` modules (Core, Widgets, Gui, Svg) installed via `pkg-config`.*
+
+Advanced customization is still possible via `build.steps` if special handling is needed:
+
+```toml
+[build.steps]
+moc = "moc {in} -o {out}"
+```
+
+### Unix CC
+
+- Compiler resolved via `resolve_compiler()`: `DCR_COMPILER` > `DCR_CC` > `[toolchain]` > `build.compiler` > `PATH`
+- Supports `.d` files for header dependency tracking
+- Flags: `-std=`, `-MMD -MF`, `-c -o`, `-I`, `-L`, `-l`
+- Conditional flags based on config:
+  - `freestanding` or bare-metal target: `-ffreestanding` (compile), `-nostdlib -static` (link)
+  - `lto`: `-flto` (compile + link)
+  - `panic = "abort"`: `-fno-exceptions` (C++ only), `-fno-unwind-tables`, `-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables`
+
+### MSVC
+
+- Supports cl.exe and clang-cl.exe
+- Flags: `/std:`, `/Fo:`, `/Fe:`, `/I`, `/link`
+
+### GAS / NASM / MASM / FASM / LLVM-IR
+
+- GAS: `-I`, `-c -o`, `--defsym`
+- NASM: `-I`, `-o`, `-D`, `-f` (format: win64/elf64/macho64/macho32/elf32; **`bin` when `kind = "flat-bin"`**)
+- MASM: `/nologo /c /Fo<obj> <source>`
+- FASM: `<source> <output>` (output path is the object file)
+- LLVM IR: `-filetype=obj <source> -o <output>`
+
+## Incremental Builds
+
+Three levels of incrementality:
+
+1. **mtime** — if output is newer than all inputs, skip
+2. **`.d` files** — header change tracking (including transitive)
+3. **SHA256 fingerprint** — recompile if compiler flags changed (stored in `.dcr_fingerprint`)
+
+## Parallel Compilation
+
+- `thread::scope` for thread pool
+- Atomic task queue (`AtomicU64`)
+- Mutex on stdout (`OUTPUT_MUTEX`)
+- Thread count = `available_parallelism()`, capped by `build.codegen-units` if set
+
+## Build Kinds
+
+| Kind | Type | Path (Linux example) |
+|------|------|---------------------|
+| `bin` | Executable | `target/<triple>/<profile>/<name>` (.exe on Windows) |
+| `staticlib` | Static library | `target/<triple>/<profile>/lib<name>.a` (.lib) |
+| `sharedlib` | Dynamic library | `target/<triple>/<profile>/lib<name>.so` (.dll/.dylib) |
+| `efi` | UEFI application | `target/<triple>/<profile>/<name>.efi` |
+| `elf` | ELF without stdlib | `target/<triple>/<profile>/<name>` |
+| `none` | Compile only, no link | — |
+| `custom` | Full filename+extension control | `target/<triple>/<profile>/<filename>.<extension>` |
+| `flat-bin` | Raw binary | ASM: `<stem>.bin` (NASM `-f bin` / FASM / GAS·MASM·LLC via objcopy); C/C++: `<name>.bin` (link + objcopy) |
+
+## Disk images (`[archive]`)
+
+After a successful build, if `[archive]` is present in `dcr.toml`, DCR formats a FAT volume and copies files from `layout` into the image. See [dcr.toml → archive](/docs/reference/dcr-toml#archive).
+
+## Build Steps
+
+DCR supports pre-build and post-build steps:
+
+- `build.steps` — commands before compilation
+- `build.post_steps` — commands after compilation
+
+Substitutions: `{stem}`, `{in}`, `{out}`, `{profile}`, `{version}`, `{name}`.
+
+Example Qt codegen via build steps:
+
+```toml
+[build.steps]
+moc = "moc {in} -o {out}"
+```
+
+## pkg-config
+
+Automatic lookup (read from raw config):
+
+```toml
+[build]
+pkg_config = ["sdl2", "gl"]
+```
+
+DCR runs `pkg-config --cflags sdl2 gl` and `pkg-config --libs sdl2 gl` and adds results to compiler/linker flags.
+
+## Variable Substitution
+
+Supported variables:
+
+| Variable | Description |
+|----------|-------------|
+| `{version}` | Package version |
+| `{version_major}` | Major version part |
+| `{version_minor}` | Minor version part |
+| `{version_patch}` | Patch version |
+| `{version_suffix}` | Suffix (e.g., `-rc1`) |
+| `{version_suffix_dash}` | Suffix with dash |
+| `{profile}` | Profile name (debug/release) |
+| `{name}` | Package name |

+## Short Names
+
+DCR supports short platform names:
+
+| Short Name | Full Triple |
+|-----------|-------------|
+| `linux` | `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu` |
+| `macos` | `x86_64-apple-darwin` |
+| `windows` | `x86_64-pc-windows-msvc` |
+
+```bash
+dcr build --target windows
+```
+
+## Full Triples
+
+```bash
+dcr build --target aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu
+dcr build --target x86_64-pc-windows-gnu      # mingw
+dcr build --target armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabihf
+```
+
+## clang --target
+
+When using clang, DCR injects `--target=<triple>` into CFLAGS.
+
+```toml
+[build]
+compiler = "clang"
+target = "aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu"
+# Auto: cflags += ["--target=aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu"]
+```
+
+## Bare-Metal / Freestanding
+
+For targets containing `none`, `-elf`, `eabi`, or `baremetal`, DCR automatically:
+
+1. **Disables default flags** — no system include paths, no `-l` libc
+2. **Injects `-ffreestanding`** at compile time and `-nostdlib -static` at link time
+
+You can also enable freestanding mode explicitly:
+
+```toml
+[build]
+freestanding = true
+```
+
+```bash
+dcr build --target aarch64-none-elf
+```
+
+## Target Directory
+
+By default, the compilation output directories are structured as follows:
+
+- **Linux and BSD**: Always output to `target/<triple>/<profile>/` (using host triple if no target is specified).
+- **macOS and Windows (without target)**: Output to `target/<profile>/`.
+- **macOS and Windows (with explicit target)**: Output to `target/<triple>/<profile>/`.

+| `codegen-units` | `""` | Max parallel compilation jobs (`"0"` = auto) |
+| `qt` | `false` | Enable automatic Qt meta-object handling (MOC, UIC, RCC) |
+
+Settings from raw config (not in typed struct):
+- `pkg_config` — list of pkg-config packages
+- `ldscript` — linker script path
+- `build.steps` / `build.post_steps` — codegen steps
+
+## Per-language overrides: `[build.c]`, `[build.cxx]`, `[build.asm]`, `[build.llvm_ir]`
+
+Each language can have its own table that overrides the flat `[build]` settings:
+
+```toml
+[build]
+compiler = "clang"
+standard = "c11"
+
+[build.c]
+standard = "c23"
+compiler = "gcc"
+
+[build.cxx]
+standard = "c++23"
+compiler = "g++"
+
+[build.asm]
+compiler = "nasm"
+flags = ["-felf64"]
+
+[build.llvm_ir]
+compiler = "llc"
+```
+
+The flat `[build]` acts as fallback; per-language tables take precedence for their language.
+
+Example:
+
+```toml
+[build]
+language = "c++"
+standard = "c23"
+cxx_standard = "c++23"
+compiler = "clang"
+kind = "sharedlib"
+cflags = ["-Wall", "-Wextra"]
+opt_level = "z"
+lto = true
+strip = true
+panic = "abort"
+codegen-units = "2"
+```
+
+## [toolchain]
+
+```toml
+[toolchain]
+cc = "/usr/bin/clang"
+cxx = "/usr/bin/clang++"
+as = "/usr/bin/as"
+ar = "/usr/bin/ar"
+ld = "/usr/bin/ld.lld"
+```
+
+Raw config also supports `uic`, `moc`, `rcc` for Qt codegen.
+
+## [dependencies]
+
+See [dependencies](/docs/reference/dependencies).
+
+## [run]
+
+```toml
+[run]
+cmd = "./target/{profile}/{name}"
+```
+
+Substitutions:
+- `{version}` — package version
+- `{version_major}`, `{version_minor}`, `{version_patch}`, `{version_suffix}`, `{version_suffix_dash}` — version parts
+- `{profile}` — debug / release
+- `{name}` — package name
+
+Default `cmd` = `./target/{profile}/{name}` (macOS/Windows) or `./target/<triple>/<profile>/<name>` (Linux).
+
+## [workspace]
+
+See [workspaces](/docs/reference/workspaces).
+
+## [archive]
+
+Optional post-build step: format a FAT volume and copy built artifacts into a disk image. Runs after a successful package build (and after workspace member builds that define `[archive]`).
+
+Requires DCR built with the `archive` Cargo feature (`cargo build --features archive`). Release binaries include this feature.
+
+| Field | Required | Description |
+|-------|----------|-------------|
+| `output` | yes | Image path relative to project root (`{profile}` allowed) |
+| `format` | yes | `fat12`, `fat16`, or `fat32` |
+| `size` | no | Image size: bytes or `K`/`KB`/`M`/`MB`/`G`/`GB` (default `1474560` ≈ 1.44 MiB) |
+| `offset` | no | Byte offset of the FAT volume inside the image (default `0`) |
+| `label` | no | Volume label (max 11 chars, default `VOLUME`) |
+| `bootsector` | no | Path to a 512-byte boot sector written at offset 0 when `offset` is 0 (`{profile}` allowed) |
+| `layout` | no | List of `{ from, to }` entries (files or globs → path inside the volume) |
+
+```toml
+[archive]
+output = "target/{profile}/disk.img"
+format = "fat12"
+size = "1440K"
+label = "MYOS"
+bootsector = "target/{profile}/boot.bin"
+
+[[archive.layout]]
+from = "target/{profile}/kernel.bin"
+to = "KERNEL.BIN"
+
+[[archive.layout]]
+from = "assets/*"
+to = "/"
+```
+
+Typical pairing with `kind = "flat-bin"` (NASM `-f bin`) for bootloaders and pure-ASM OS images.
+
+## `flat-bin` (kind)
+
+Produces a raw binary (default extension `bin`) for boot sectors, kernels, and freestanding payloads.
+
+### Assemblers
+
+| Tool | Language / compiler | How flat-bin is produced |
+|------|---------------------|--------------------------|
+| NASM | `language = "asm"`, `compiler = "nasm"` | `-f bin` → `<stem>.bin` |
+| FASM | `compiler = "fasm"` | direct write (use `format binary` in source) |
+| GAS | `compiler = "as"` / `"gas"` | assemble → `objcopy -O binary` |
+| MASM | `compiler = "ml"` / `"ml64"` | assemble → `objcopy -O binary` |
+| LLC | `language = "llvm_ir"`, `compiler = "llc"` | `-filetype=obj` → `objcopy -O binary` |
+
+```toml
+[build]
+language = "asm"
+compiler = "nasm"
+kind = "flat-bin"
+extension = "bin"
+roots = ["src/boot.asm"]
+```
+
+### C / C++
+
+Compile all sources, link with `-nostdlib -static` (plus your `ldflags` / `ldscript`), then convert the intermediate ELF/PE with `objcopy -O binary` to `<filename|name>.bin`.
+
+```toml
+[build]
+language = "c"
+compiler = "clang"
+kind = "flat-bin"
+freestanding = true
+filename = "kernel"
+extension = "bin"
+ldscript = "linker.ld"
+ldflags = ["-T", "linker.ld"]
+```
+
+Notes:
+
+- Multi-file **ASM** packages emit one `<stem>.bin` per source; **C/C++** emit a single project binary.
+- `objcopy` tools tried in order: `llvm-objcopy`, `objcopy`, `gobjcopy`.
+- Incompatible with `build.qt = true`.
+- `dcr run` rejects `flat-bin` (not a host executable).

+
+# Dependencies
+
+## Formats
+
+The `[dependencies]` section supports three formats:
+
+### String (registry)
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+fmt = "10.1.1"
+spdlog = "1.12"
+catch2 = "3.4.0"
+```
+
+The version string is used as-is for registry lookup.
+
+### Table (git)
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+fmt = { git = "https://github.com/fmtlib/fmt", tag = "10.1.1" }
+```
+
+Fields: `git`, `branch`, `tag`, `rev`.
+
+### Table (path)
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+mylib = { path = "../mylib" }
+```
+
+## Registry
+
+DCR uses a package registry for dependency lookup by name.
+
+```toml
+# ~/.dcr/config.toml
+[registry.default]
+url = "https://index.dcr.pm"
+priority = 1
+```
+
+Registry priority: order in `config.toml`. The `DCR_INDEX_PATH` variable overrides the path to `index.json`.
+
+## Git dependencies
+
+Git dependencies are parsed and recorded in `dcr.lock`. DCR supports specifying branch/tag/rev for git sources:
+
+- `branch` — switch to a branch
+- `tag` — switch to a tag
+- `rev` — switch to a specific commit
+- `features` — feature flags (parsed, but does not affect build)
+
+## Path dependencies
+
+Local paths. DCR automatically discovers include and lib directories from the neighbor's `dcr.toml`.
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+mylib = { path = "/abs/path/to/lib" }
+mylib = { path = "../relative/path" }
+```
+
+*Note: Header resolution automatically checks the packaged `target/include` directory of path dependencies, ensuring consumer packages can find headers from compiled static or dynamic libraries.*
+
+## dcr.lock
+
+Dependency lock file. Contains package names and sources.
+
+Created during `dcr build` when registry dependencies are present. Not updated during `dcr add` — only on the next `dcr build`.
+
+## Resolution process
+
+1. Load all dependencies (registry → git → path)
+2. For path deps: recursively read their `dcr.toml`
+3. For registry deps: search `index.json`
+4. For git deps: clone to cache
+5. Collect `include_dirs`, `lib_dirs`, `libs` for the compiler

+# Workspaces
+
+Workspaces allow managing multiple packages in a single repository.
+
+## Configuration
+
+```toml
+[workspace.lib-core]
+path = "lib-core"
+
+[workspace.lib-utils]
+path = "lib-utils"
+deps = ["lib-core"]
+
+[workspace.app]
+path = "app"
+deps = ["lib-core", "lib-utils"]

+
+| Field | Description |
+|-------|-------------|
+| `path` | Path to the package (relative to workspace root) |
+| `deps` | Dependencies on other members |
+| `main` | Mark as the main package |
+
+## Topological sort
+
+DCR automatically sorts packages by dependencies: package A is built before B if B depends on A.
+
+Cyclic dependencies are detected and cause an error.
+
+## Build
+
+```bash
+dcr build                    # build all packages in dependency order
+dcr build --workspace app    # build only app (dependencies built automatically)
+```
+
+When building a workspace, DCR automatically injects include and library paths of dependent workspace members:
+- **Include Paths**: Automatically resolves and injects header directories of dependencies, including the member's `src/` directory, local `include/` directory, and the packaged `target/include` directory.
+- **Library Paths**: Injects compiled library search paths (`target/lib` as well as target-specific build folders) to allow automatic linking with member libraries.
+
+## Clean
+
+```bash
+dcr clean                    # clean only root target/
+dcr clean --all              # clean target/ of all packages
+```
+
+## Inheritance
+
+If a member has `inherit = true` in its `[build]` section, fields from the root `[build]` are merged into the member:
+
+```toml
+# root dcr.toml
+[build]
+inherit = true
+language = "c"
+standard = "c17"
+
+# member inherits language and standard

+A workspace root can set `workspace_only = true` — it won't be built itself, and doesn't need `language` or `compiler`:
+
+```toml

+version = "0.1.0"

+workspace_only = true
+kind = "bin"

+# Self Update
+
+## dcr --update
+
+Automatic update to the latest version. Downloads a binary (not an archive) from GitHub Releases and replaces the current executable.
+
+```bash
+dcr --update
+```
+
+## How it works
+
+1. DCR detects the current platform and architecture
+2. Fetches the latest release from `api.github.com/repos/dexoron/dcr/releases/latest`
+3. Compares versions
+4. Downloads the matching asset (direct binary URL, not archive)
+5. Replaces the current executable via `self_replace`
+
+## Asset naming
+
+Pattern: `dcr-<triple>` or `dcr-<triple>.exe`
+
+| Platform | Asset name |
+|----------|-----------|
+| Linux x86_64 | `dcr-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu` |
+| macOS x86_64 | `dcr-x86_64-apple-darwin` |
+| macOS ARM64 | `dcr-aarch64-apple-darwin` |
+| Windows x86_64 | `dcr-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc.exe` |
+
+## AUR
+
+If DCR was installed via AUR, `--update` shows a warning:
+
+```
+Update via package manager: yay/paru -Syu {package_name} or sudo pacman -Syu {package_name}
+```
+
+## Errors
+
+- Cannot detect platform — error
+- Cannot fetch release — error with URL
+- No write permission — error (use `sudo` or manual install)

+---
+
+# Test Framework
+
+DCR has a built-in minimal test framework for C.
+
+## Macros
+
+### `EXPECT(expr)`
+
+Asserts that an expression is true.
+
+```c
+EXPECT(1 + 1 == 2);
+EXPECT(ptr != NULL);
+```
+
+### `SKIP(reason)`
+
+Skips a test with a message.
+
+```c
+SKIP("not implemented on Windows");
+```
+
+### `TEST(name)`
+
+Defines a test.
+
+```c
+TEST(addition) {
+    EXPECT(1 + 1 == 2);
+    EXPECT(2 + 2 == 4);
+}
+```
+
+### `TEST_CASE(name)`
+
+Registers a test case.
+
+```c
+TEST_CASE(math) {
+    EXPECT(1 + 1 == 2);
+}
+```
+
+## Initialization
+
+```bash
+dcr test --init
+```
+
+Creates:
+- `tests/dcr_test.h` — framework header (do not edit)
+- `tests/test.c` — template with example test
+
+## Structure
+
+```
+tests/
+├── dcr_test.h      # framework (do not edit)
+├── test.c          # main tests
+└── ...             # additional .c test files
+```
+
+Only `.c` files are compiled (`.cpp` is not supported).
