Section (IDs kept)	Change
API-first	The two MUSTs as instructions; the "Benefits:" bullet becomes the reason in the first rule
Protocol selection	Statements → instructions; "REST + gRPC is valid" → an explicit MAY
OpenAPI	Spec MUSTs kept; design-first, drift, contract-test and info.version rules shortened
Versioning	MUST and MUST NOT kept; "Alternatively, use a header" → where a path prefix does not fit
Backward compatibility	The breaking and non-breaking lists → three rules; the no-bump MUST NOT kept
Statelessness, Pagination	MUSTs as instructions

• MUST count unchanged (11); the one new MAY marks a permission the old text stated as "is valid", which a plain imperative would have raised to MUST
• "ADR" → "decision record", the repo's own term in templates
• Part of Raise every template's quality score to at least 95 #2106

Checks

• Smoke 35/35; conformance 12 passed, 0 failed, 1 not applicable; readings read
• Fork sync, redundancy audit, score ratchet, markdownlint, pre-commit hooks

No CHANGELOG entry: the rules are unchanged in meaning.
