docs(release): propagate npm 0.12.0 + changelog

Bump npm version references 0.11.6 -> 0.12.0 across README, CLAUDE.md status,
docs/llms/*, and docs/ports/typescript.md (npm-only; NuGet/PyPI 0.11.1 and Maven
7.4.1 are separate release lines, untouched). Add the 0.12.0 CHANGELOG entry.

+### Added
+- **Agent-friendly `meta` CLI.** A `--format` flag with TOON output (a compact,
+  machine-readable format that becomes the default when stdout is piped to an
+  agent/CI), structured errors and next-step hints emitted on stdout, package-manager
+  detection, and deploy-all agent-context reference fragments (#71).
+
+### Fixed
+- **`meta init` agent-context scaffold no longer guesses the migration binding.**
+  The injected `AGENTS.md`/`CLAUDE.md` now name the database schema **and migrations**
+  as metadata-derived in the "never hand-write" principle ("change the metadata and
+  regenerate, never hand-write SQL"), and the stack line dropped the guessed
+  "migrations are TS" clause. This prevents an AI agent from hand-writing a raw
+  `ALTER TABLE` against a generated schema and silently reintroducing the drift
+  `meta verify` exists to catch. The verify skill's JVM startup-validator note was
+  also hedged to an opt-in (#1, #73).

 # MetaObjects
 
-> A cross-language metadata standard for declaring typed entity models that drive code generation, runtime metadata access, drift detection, and prompt construction across TypeScript, Java, Kotlin, C#, and Python. Apache 2.0. Shipping at `0.11.6` on npm and `7.4.1` on Maven Central.

 The metamodel is the durable spine; generated code is the disposable artifact. Substrate is local-first: typed metadata lives in your repo, generated code is idiomatic per-language output that runs without any MetaObjects dependency at runtime. If `@metaobjectsdev/*` (npm) or `com.metaobjects:*` (Maven) disappears tomorrow, you keep working code in every language.

 - **Drift detection** — catch divergence between generated code and metadata before it ships. `verify` is one verb with explicit subverbs (ADR-0021): `verify --codegen` (regen-and-diff against committed output), `verify --templates` (prompt `{{field}}` ↔ payload-VO drift), and `verify --db` (live-DB schema drift, Node `meta` only). Surfaces drift as build-time breakage rather than a production incident.
 - **Prompt construction** — treat LLM prompts as governed metadata instead of strings scattered across services. A typed payload declared as a projection (so payload bloat and token cost are a diff, not a mystery), external provider-resolved prompt text, and a logic-less Mustache engine that renders deterministically: snapshot-testable in CI, byte-stable so an exact-prefix prompt-cache hit doesn't break on a stray whitespace, and drift-checked at build time so a renamed field can't silently degrade a prompt. Conformance-gated, so the guarantee holds in every language port. Render + payload-VO codegen + `verify` + `template.output` parser-on-receipt (FR-006) + the output-format prompt fragment & tolerant `extract` parser (FR-010/FR-011) ship in all five ports today.

 - [Java](https://github.com/metaobjectsdev/metaobjects/tree/main/server/java): 13 publishable Maven modules under `com.metaobjects:*` at `7.4.1` on Maven Central. Spring REST + JPA codegen, OMDB runtime persistence (pure data-access) with Spring-tx, full FR-003 + FR-006 + FR-010/011 + FR-018 + FR5 family. Fully green across all conformance corpora.
 - [Kotlin](https://github.com/metaobjectsdev/metaobjects/tree/main/server/java/codegen-kotlin): a Kotlin codegen pipeline on KotlinPoet plus `metadata-ktx` — a Kotlin facade over the Java MetaObjects core. Ships via the Java reactor (`metaobjects-metadata-ktx`, `metaobjects-codegen-kotlin`). Persistence-conformance runs against Testcontainers Postgres through Exposed.
 - [C#](https://github.com/metaobjectsdev/metaobjects/tree/main/server/csharp): loader + canonical serializer + EF Core + ASP.NET codegen + render/verify. The `dotnet meta` tool ships `gen` and the codegen-side `verify` subverbs (`--codegen`, `--templates`); schema migration is Node `meta` only (ADR-0015).
