jx12n 4051077cff docs(m12): refresh API, specs, ops, and roadmap to the shipped M12 reality
- API.md: document `similar_to`/`region`/`unavailable_shards` on /feed and
  /search, the new POST /vector_search k-NN probe, and the cluster-node-only
  routes (/cluster/*, /sharded/*, /hardnegs)
- CHANGELOG.md: M12 entries — multi-vector preference + ANN candidate-gen,
  idle-readiness + TLS scale-up (m12p5/p6), sharded ingestion (m12p4)
- ROADMAP.md: mark M11 + M12 COMPLETE; restate the v1.0 bar (30-day-green
  nightly calendar + Ref-A/k3s throughput re-runs)
- prometheus-alerts.yaml: add ship-stall, quorum-lag, divergence-quarantine,
  reseed-pending, and snapshot-pin-force-drop cluster alerts
- check-docs.sh: self-updating milestone-status freshness guard derived from
  ROADMAP's latest COMPLETE milestone
- refresh specs (00-14), ai-lookup, guides, and runbooks to M0-M12

tidalDB Engineering Docs

The engineering documentation home. Top-level product docs (VISION, USE_CASES, SEQUENCE, ARCHITECTURE, API, QUICKSTART, CODING_GUIDELINES, thoughts) live at the repository root; everything below is the deeper engineering record.

This and the repo root are the two canonical doc homes. There is intentionally no per-crate doc mirror (no tidal/docs/). Edit the canonical file, never a copy.

Component specs — specs/

The authoritative component specifications (status: Implemented, M0M12).

# Spec # Spec

01 Storage engine 09 Ranking & scoring
02 Entity model 10 Feedback loop
03 Signal system 11 Schema
04 Relationships 12 Cold start
05 Cohorts 13 Concurrency
06 Text retrieval 14 Scale architecture
07 Vector retrieval
