 ## Unreleased
 
+## v1.2.0 — 2026-10-05 — The reference docs come from the plugin
+
+A minor release. A packaged project no longer commits the framework's four reference docs: it reads
+them from the pinned plugin
+([#33](https://github.com/Aplyca/AgenticDevelopmentFramework/pull/33), decision 0019). Nothing changes
+for a committed project but two overwritten files.
+
+**Upgrading from v1.1.x:** `/aplyca-adf:upgrade` moves the pin to `v1.2.0`. In a packaged project it
+also:
+- deletes the four docs from `docs/` where they're unchanged;
+- points their links at the release;
+- adds the plugin's read rule to the settings;
+- adds one sentence to the names note in `CLAUDE.md`.
+
+A baseline older than v1.0.0 takes v1.0.0's order to upgrade in first.

+The latest, **v1.2.0** (2026-10-05), moves the framework's reference docs out of packaged projects
+and into the plugin.
 **v1.0.0** (2026-10-02) renamed the plugin `aplyca-adf` and opens with the order to upgrade in. A
 baseline older than `7383422` takes that release's order first, and one older than `3eb7777` takes its
 three fixes before that — they affect every adopted repository.
