Asterdoc v0.9.0

Paradoc is now Asterdoc. 0.9 renames the packages, the CLI, the project files and the hosts, and starts a new schema history at 2026-10-28. The artifact format is the same as in Paradoc 0.8.

Highlights

• The packages are @asterdoc/*. The CLI is @asterdoc/cli, or the asterdoc package, and the command is asterdoc.
• Schemas are at https://schema.asterdoc.com. The current version, 2026-10-28, has the same shape as Paradoc's 2026-10-02.
• Hosts move from *.paradoc.dev to *.asterdoc.com. The documentation is at docs.asterdoc.com and the public registry is at public.asterdoc.com.
• The source is at github.com/asterdoc/asterdoc.

Breaking changes

All packages

• Each @paradoc/* package is now the @asterdoc/* package with the same name. The @paradoc/* packages get no more releases.

Schemas

• The schema host is schema.asterdoc.com, and SCHEMA_VERSIONS starts again at 2026-10-28. The Paradoc versions and their migration steps are removed, so a schema.paradoc.dev address reads as unknown-version.
• A signature timestamp and a lock file installedAt must include seconds.

CLI

• The command is asterdoc, from @asterdoc/cli or the asterdoc package. It replaces paradoc from @paradoc/cli or paradoc-cli.
• A project uses asterdoc.json and .asterdoc/, and user settings are in ~/.asterdoc/config.json.
• Environment variables start with ASTERDOC_ in place of PARADOC_: ASTERDOC_SCHEMA_URL, ASTERDOC_NAMESPACE, ASTERDOC_NO_UPDATE_CHECK, ASTERDOC_TELEMETRY_DISABLED, ASTERDOC_TELEMETRY_URL and ASTERDOC_TELEMETRY_DEBUG.

React

• The document root has the class asterdoc-document in place of paradoc-document.

Agent skills

• The skills are asterdoc and asterdoc-react, from github.com/asterdoc/asterdoc.

Upgrading from 0.8

1. Replace each @paradoc/* dependency with the @asterdoc/* package of the same name at 0.9.0, and change the imports.
2. Remove paradoc-cli or @paradoc/cli, and install the CLI with npm install -g asterdoc.
3. In each project, rename paradoc.json to asterdoc.json and .paradoc/ to .asterdoc/. Move ~/.paradoc/config.json to ~/.asterdoc/config.json.
4. Rename each PARADOC_* environment variable to ASTERDOC_*.
5. If an artifact is older than Paradoc's 2026-10-02, bring it to 2026-10-02 with paradoc migrate from Paradoc 0.8. Then run asterdoc migrate <files> --from 2026-10-28. It changes only $schema, to https://schema.asterdoc.com/2026-10-28.json.
6. Change registry URLs and links from *.paradoc.dev to *.asterdoc.com, and publish your hosted artifacts again after step 5.
7. Install the agent skills again from github.com/asterdoc/asterdoc.
