What changed in Make — and whether you need to do anything.
Why not just read Make's release notes?
Make tells you what shipped. The Brief tells you whether it matters — to your production scenarios, with the action already worked out.
A list of everything that shipped
Every release, every app, every surface — undifferentiated. No signal on which items touch your scenarios, no deadline math, no action steps, and no flag when Make's own docs contradict each other across pages.
You still have to read all of it, figure out what's yours, and decide what to do. Every month.
A sourced judgment about your risk
Every line is a determination someone made, checked against a primary Make source, dated, and signed. Act-now is separated from watch-and-wait. Deadlines are counted down. The fix is written out — and what needs no action is named too.
Ten minutes tells you what deserves attention. The Vault holds the rest.
What's in every Brief
The skeleton is fixed; the fill varies with what changed. Quiet months stay short — you're paying for the surveillance and the judgment, not a page count.
Deadlines & breaking changes
What needs action before the next issue, with days remaining.
Confirmed, future-dated
Changes with a deadline down the road — put it on the calendar now.
Worth a look
New capabilities that may help your builds. No forced action.
What you can safely ignore
Changes that don't affect you — and why. Valuable when it comes from trusted surveillance.
Corrected reference cards
The fixed version of anything a change broke in the manual or kit.
The 10-minute check
A standing monthly maintenance routine you can run in one sitting.
The deprecation radar
Confirmed changes on the horizon, so nothing arrives as a surprise.
Sourced & signed
Each worked change carries its primary Make source and a checked date. No cover item left as unfulfilled inventory.
“Short enough to scan in one sitting; long enough to cover what needs action.”
What changed in Make — and whether you need to do anything.
Read a real issue before you pay.
Issue 001 is the whole thing — the July 2026 Make deltas worked all the way through, every claim carrying its primary source and the date it was checked. No fictional back-catalog: the archive begins here, with one real issue.
Read it, then decide whether ten minutes a month of this is worth $79 a year.
The issue is the signal. The Vault is the standing truth.
Not an archive of old PDFs — the current verified state of Make's moving parts, in one place you log into. Tag what you run, and every item flags whether it's yours.

Plus the source ledger — every claim, its primary source, and when it was checked — and a public, versioned correction log. Where Make's own docs disagree, the Vault says so.
The book is the credibility anchor.
The Brief is built from the same verification system used to keep the 380-page Missing Manual for Make current. You don't need the book to get value from the Brief — but if you own it, subscribers also receive corrected versions of any affected manual or Companion Kit reference as changes land.
