v0.9.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2026-05-18

Highlights

  • DMAIC Framework - New DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) metrics framework for structured improvement cycles
  • prism-core Integration - Shared primitives imported from prism-core for ecosystem consistency
  • Updated Dependencies - prism-core v0.1.0 and prism-execution v0.12.0

Added

DMAIC Metrics Framework

New dmaic package providing structured improvement cycle support:

import "github.com/grokify/prism-intelligence/dmaic"

// Create a DMAIC cycle
cycle := dmaic.Cycle{
    ID:          "cycle-2026-q2",
    Name:        "API Latency Improvement",
    Phase:       dmaic.PhaseAnalyze,
    DefineDate:  time.Now(),
    // ...
}

DMAIC Phases:

Phase Purpose
Define Define the problem and project goals
Measure Measure current performance baseline
Analyze Analyze data to identify root causes
Improve Implement solutions
Control Establish controls to sustain improvements

Features:

  • Cycle type with phase tracking and metrics
  • Pandoc/Marp rendering support via structureddocs
  • Integration with PRISM maturity models

Changed

prism-core Integration

The following types are now imported from github.com/grokify/prism-core:

Type Usage
Domain Metric domain categorization
Layer Value stream layers
Stage Lifecycle stages
MaturityLevel M1-M5 maturity levels
TeamType Team Topologies types
TrendDirection Metric trend tracking

Benefits

  • Ecosystem Consistency - Same type definitions across prism-capability, prism-intelligence, and prism-execution
  • Single Source of Truth - Changes propagate automatically across projects
  • Reduced Duplication - Shared primitives maintained in one place
