NotAlterra — planned transition

Direction

• TUI archived at v0.4.3 — critical fixes only.
• GUI becomes the future in a separate repo (fork of the TUI, new identity).
• Tagline: "NotAlterra: We are no longer terminal. You survived 4546B. You can handle a window."

Why fork, not workspace

• TUI is complete and stable — no need to carry its crate in the GUI repo.
• GUI gets its own name, identity, and community.
• Different release cadence, different issues, different dependencies.
• Shared library code (src/lib.rs) is snapshot-copied at fork time; cherry-pick backend fixes from the TUI repo as needed.

Repo structure

Repo	Purpose	Status
github.com/forkless/NotAlterra	TUI — archived, critical fixes only	Current repo
github.com/forkless/<new-name>	GUI — Windows native (WinUI 3)	To be created

Agent rules

• Linux agent works on the TUI repo for any critical fixes.
• Windows agent works on the GUI repo for all new development.
• No shared branch coordination — repos are independent.

When GUI ships

• v0.5.0 — GUI alpha, TUI v0.4.3 still available for download.
• Release draft → test GUI binaries → publish.
