The current source line is v0.42.0. The published npm line is the stable 0.42 line (dist-tag latest); it ships under the ADR-0122 freeze on top of the untouched ADR-0119 static freeze.
Three commands to a running app: deno run -A --minimum-dependency-age 0 npm:@openelement/create my-app, then cd my-app, then deno task dev. The default dist-tag is the stable 0.42 line, and --minimum-dependency-age 0 is needed because Deno's default minimumDependencyAge (~24h) refuses packages published within the last day. Deno 2.8+ is required — the generated starter writes the minimumDependencyAge config key, which older Deno versions do not understand.

Run build, package, docs truth, and visual smoke gates before release.
