Summary

Surface-only rebrand of the agent-facing product from RPG-Kit to CoderMind. The underlying RPG and RPG-Encoder technology (papers, algorithms, the Repository Planning Graph concept) keeps its name. This PR is intentionally non-breaking — CLI verbs, package name, workspace directories, and Python module name all stay as rpgkit* during this transition.

The new CLI tagline states this explicitly to bridge the gap for users:

CoderMind — Plan-first coding for Claude Code & GitHub Copilot
(formerly RPG-Kit — CLI commands rename in a future release)

What changes (user-visible)

  • RPG-Kit/ directory → CoderMind/ (204 file renames, git rename detection preserves history)
  • Top-level README.md: prose, paths, install URL #subdirectory=, transition NOTE callout
  • CoderMind/README.md: H1 includes (formerly RPG-Kit), transition NOTE, all prose + paths
  • 3 CI workflow files: name:, paths: filter, PROJECT_DIR env var
  • CLI banner: new ANSI Shadow CoderMind art (same font family as the old RPG-KIT banner)
  • CLI tagline: 2-line with positioning + transition bridge
  • --help app description, init / update / script command docstrings
  • All Panel titles, StepTracker labels, completion / error messages in init/update/version/check flows
  • Initial-commit message scaffolded by rpgkit init
  • Hook status echo line [CoderMind] RPG status unavailable

What intentionally stays (avoids breaking v0.1.3 users)

Each of these has a migration concern that needs to ride with a future release:

  • CLI verbs: rpgkit init/check/version/..., rpgkit hook, rpgkit script
  • Slash commands: /rpgkit.feature_spec, /rpgkit.code_gen, etc.
  • Package name: rpgkit-cli
  • Workspace directories: .rpgkit/, ~/.rpgkit/workspaces/
  • Python package: src/rpgkit_cli/
  • .gitignore sentinel # RPG-Kit ignores ... (upgrade detection)
  • VS Code task label RPG-Kit: load status (dedup key in _install_claude_hooks)
  • 4 translated README files (translations need separate review)
  • Internal docstrings / private helper comments

Test plan

Manual smoke (in a fresh venv off CoderMind/):

  • rpgkit (no args) shows the new CoderMind banner and transition bridge
  • rpgkit --help shows CoderMind app help and rebranded init/update/script descriptions
  • rpgkit version shows the CoderMind CLI Information panel
  • rpgkit check ends with CoderMind CLI is ready to use!
  • rpgkit init <project> --ai claude --script sh runs the full init flow (17 steps) with CoderMind branding in the Panel title, StepTracker, and MCP server reference; project ends in a runnable state
  • Path-sensitive test suites pass in isolation: test_e2e.py 24/24, test_path_format.py + test_storage.py + test_workspace_unified_layout.py + test_encoder_workspace_layout.py 70/70

CI:

  • CoderMind Lint workflow triggers on CoderMind/** (path filter updated)
  • CoderMind Pre-Release / CoderMind Release workflows pick up PROJECT_DIR=CoderMind

refactor: rename RPG-Kit to CoderMind (surface only)
49aad0c 
Rename RPG-Kit/ -> CoderMind/ and update all user-visible brand strings to
CoderMind. RPG and RPG-Encoder (technology names from the papers) keep
their names. CLI verbs (rpgkit, /rpgkit.*) and the rpgkit-cli package
intentionally stay during transition; the new banner tagline explains:

  CoderMind - Plan-first coding for Claude Code & GitHub Copilot
  (formerly RPG-Kit - CLI commands rename in a future release)

Touched:
- git mv RPG-Kit/ -> CoderMind/ (204 renames)
- Top-level README + CoderMind/README: prose, paths, install URLs, transition NOTE
- 3 CI workflows: name, paths filter, PROJECT_DIR env var
- src/rpgkit_cli/__init__.py: BANNER (ANSI Shadow CoderMind), TAGLINE,
  app help, init/update/script command docstrings, Panel titles, StepTracker
  labels, init/update flow text, version + check completion messages
- src/rpgkit_cli/_assets.py: 2 docstring path comments

Deferred to a later release (would break existing v0.1.3 users on upgrade):
- CLI verbs rpgkit *, slash commands /rpgkit.*
- Package name rpgkit-cli
- .gitignore sentinel header (upgrade detection key)
- VS Code task label "RPG-Kit: load status" (dedup key)
- 4 translated README files
- Python package directory src/rpgkit_cli/

Verified: rpgkit --help / version / check / init all run; path-sensitive
tests pass in isolation (e2e 24/24, path/storage/workspace 70/70).

chore(cmind): rename rpgkit → cmind across CoderMind module (#60)
334319c 
Surface-only rename to align the CLI command, Python package, and
runtime paths with the CoderMind product name. Follow-up to #59 (which
renamed RPG-Kit → CoderMind at the directory level only).

Naming map:
rpgkit → cmind (CLI command, slash-command prefix)
  rpgkit-cli              → cmind-cli      (wheel / package name)
  rpgkit_cli              → cmind_cli      (Python import package)
  rpgkit-mcp              → cmind-mcp      (MCP server console script)
  .rpgkit/, ~/.rpgkit/    → .cmind/, ~/.cmind/    (runtime directories)
RPGKIT_* → CMIND_* (env vars, constants, gitignore markers)
  rpgkit-v* (release tag) → cmind-v*
RPG-Kit → CoderMind (product name in docs/comments)

Scope:
- .github/workflows/{lint,release,pre-release}.yml + scripts/ dir
renamed
  - CoderMind/src/rpgkit_cli/ renamed to cmind_cli/, all imports updated
  - CoderMind/pyproject.toml: package name, console scripts, wheel paths
  - CoderMind/scripts/, tests/, docs/, READMEs (incl. zh/ja/ko/hi)
  - templates/commands/* internal references
- root README.md install/upgrade snippets +
docs/cmind_visualized_graph.png

Breaking change: existing `.rpgkit/` workspaces will not be
auto-migrated. Users on v0.1.x need to re-run `cmind init` after
upgrading. Historical release tags `rpgkit-v0.1.{1..4}` are kept; new
releases will be tagged `cmind-v*`.

Verified end-to-end:
  - `cmind init/update/version/check` smoke-tested in a clean workspace
- Unit tests: 909 pass; 29 pre-existing failures (unrelated to rename,
confirmed by comparing against pre-rename main via git stash)
