# Industrial v1 and Research-Backed CRE Expansion

## Highlights

- Added a new **Industrial v1** sector pack focused on U.S. industrial acquisitions core workflows
- Added **3 industrial knowledge bases** for benchmarks, lease structures, and lender criteria
- Added **11 companion research notes** documenting sources, assumptions, and benchmark rationale
- Repositioned the repo as a broader **U.S. CRE skill library**
- Added PowerShell install examples and updated contributor guidance for research-backed sector work

## Added

- 8 industrial skills under `skills/industrial/`
- 3 industrial knowledge bases under `knowledge/`
- 11 research notes under `research/industrial/`
- 1 Claude Code plugin: `claude-code-plugins/cre-industrial/`
- `docs/RESEARCH-STANDARDS.md`
- `docs/ROADMAP.md`

## Changed

- Updated public docs to distinguish:
  - multifamily core
  - shared CRE workflows
  - industrial v1
- Updated `CONTRIBUTING.md` to require companion research notes for new sector content
- Added PowerShell examples for plugin installation
- Lightly broadened shared document-ingestion language for multi-sector CRE intake

## Notes

- Industrial v1 is **U.S.-only**
- Existing multifamily paths and slash commands remain unchanged
- Shared legal, closing, and document-ingestion workflows remain available and broadly reusable, but not every legacy file is fully sector-neutral

## Suggested Tag / Version

- `1.1.0`
