Adds adfToPlainText: blocks a blank line apart, • and 1. markers with nesting indented, a hard break as a line feed, mentions, emoji, dates and statuses as the text they show, a link as text (href, "title"), a task item as ☑ or ☐ . A table writes its cells as blocks until item 180.

Two reader panels, recorded in docs/decisions.md: 7 readers split 3 / 3 / 1 on the layout and the maintainer chose the bulleted one; 3 readers agreed on the link and task spellings. All 3 had expected no link title, but goal 7 counts a title as content, so it stays.

For the maintainer: README goal 10 and its rank (last, to keep goal numbers) are yours to approve. Question item 182 asks whether ## Audience should name email, notification and search readers.

Declined: an exact-length test of the output bound (the comparison is the shared longestOutput check, tested at its edge in src/length-bound.test.ts). Ten mutation survivors are equivalent or boundary. No round reviewed these fixes: the mutant-killing tests in 8dc31f2, and the answer to CodeRabbit's first review, which found that code fragments a\n, \n, b lost a line feed (now one text's line feeds and several texts' add up alike) with its two small refactors. Its other finding, text for cards, media, extensions and expand titles, is item 181.

Walkthrough

The package adds and exports adfToPlainText, which converts writable ADF content to plain text. The writer formats blocks, lists, links, and inline values, and returns errors for unsupported content, excessive nesting, and oversized output.

Changes: Plain-text ADF writer

Layer / File(s) Summary
Implement and validate the plain-text writer
src/plain-text/adf-to-plain-text.ts, src/index.ts, src/plain-text/adf-to-plain-text.test.ts, src/conformance/adf-property.test.ts
Adds and exports adfToPlainText. The writer formats blocks, lists, links, and inline values, and enforces nesting and output-length limits. Tests cover formatting, error parity with adfToHtml, and preservation of document text order.
Document and record the writer
README.md, docs/decisions.md, AGENTS.md, CHANGELOG.md, package.json, todo.md, docs/reading-cost.md
Documents the writer’s output conventions and public API, updates package metadata and the changelog, and records related project decisions and tracking changes.

The new plain-text writer can return successful but empty output for cards, media alt text, extension text and expand titles, so email, notification or search consumers silently lose content. Code blocks whose text is split across nodes can also lose blank lines. Emit the missing text or refuse these nodes before merging; the rest of the change is additive and easy to revert.

Explanation

The title names the main change: adding the adfToPlainText function. It also states its purpose, writing a document's text with no markup. The changeset adds this function, exports it from src/index.ts, documents it, and tests it, so the title matches the primary change.

only still-valid issues, skip the rest with a brief reason, keep changes
minimal, and validate.

Inline comments:
Review comments at @src/plain-text/adf-to-plain-text.ts:
- Line 54: Update the code-block text handling around the gap calculation so
consecutive literal newline fragments accumulate independently of the minimum
layout gap; do not let Math.max discard a newline from a later fragment. Add an
assertion that fragments “a\n”, “\n”, and “b” produce the same code-block text
as a single “a\n\nb” fragment.
- Line 76: Update adfToPlainText so inlineCard, blockCard, media, extension, and
expand output their agreed displayed text without skipping children; keep
expand’s children in the output. First establish which texts to retain for these
nodes, and until that mapping is defined, reject unsupported shapes rather than
silently returning empty text.
