runwal-forge v2.0.5 → v2.1.0 — Budget Governance Protocol added per CTO 2026-05-14 insight. Captures: Runwal management approves monthly blanket budget (Tier 1: ₹1,00,000/mo ≈ 454+646 → $650 = ₹54,000 INR), pass-state still centralized to §14 (no regression), MEMORY.md cascade reflects v2.1.0 + budget governance summary, no temp residue. Forge baseline now visible as ~54% of current ₹1L blanket — comfortable headroom for Phase 0-1 provisioning + light operation. Tier 2 upgrade trigger anticipated when customer SaaS workload lands (D-FUTURE-7) OR HA upgrade (D-FUTURE-4) — both factored into D-FUTURE planning.

Rationale

CTO surfaced governance reality: Runwal Enterprises approves blanket budgets monthly, not per-deployment. Forge skill must reflect this operational truth — otherwise every future deployment proposal lacks the cost-prediction discipline AJ needs to govern the blanket. Hard Rule #13 makes prediction mandatory; §6.5 codifies the monthly cycle; INR mapping respects AWS India billing reality. Additive change (no architectural conflict), MINOR semver bump appropriate.
