Release v0.16.0

Bumps version from 0.15.0 to 0.16.0. Promotes dev → main.

Changelog

Added

• pipe_io(), a method's inputs and outputs in one call: PipelexAPIClient.pipe_io(PipeIORequest(...)) calls POST /v1/pipe-io and returns, with no dry run, the selected pipe's pipe_io_contracts, input_form and output_form typed from mthds.protocol, beside the resolved pipe_ref, the method's default_pipe_ref, pending_signatures and is_runnable (PipeIOValidReport, or the CrateInvalidReport verdict). It takes files, method_ref or method_id like resolve, plus pipe_ref, all_pipes (every pipe instead of one) and include_files (echo the closure's .mthds files); a refused selection raises ApiResponseError.

Changed

• prepare_inputs reads its signature from POST /v1/pipe-io, which selects the pipe (Breaking): it needs an API that serves the route and raises ApiResponseError against one that does not. The pipe is the server's choice — your pipe_ref, else a package manifest's main_pipe, else the closure's single main_pipe declaration — so a method declaring no entry pipe or several now needs pipe_ref even when it has a single pipe, and a package naming its entry pipe in its manifest alone no longer does. A pipe_ref naming a dependency package's pipe (alias->domain.pipe_code) is refused before any request, as a bare one already was. A selection the API refuses with the runner's entry-lookup error_type (pipelex-api v0.33.1 and later) raises InputPreparationError with the server's reason. The route runs no dry run, so a method whose dry run fails still prepares, but it refuses an address-based cross-package dependency that validate loaded, so a closure carrying one no longer prepares.

Summary by cubic

Bumps the SDK to v0.16.0, releasing pipe_io(), a new typed client method for POST /v1/pipe-io, and moving prepare_inputs onto that route so the server selects the pipe.

Breaking change

• prepare_inputs now needs an API serving /v1/pipe-io (pipelex-api v0.33.1+) and raises ApiResponseError against one that does not; do not merge before the hosted API serves the route.
• The client-side default pipe chain and bundle-blueprint read are deleted: a method declaring no entry pipe or several now needs pipe_ref even when it has a single pipe.
• A pipe_ref naming a dependency package's pipe (alias->domain.pipe_code) is refused before any request, and a selection refused with the runner's entry-lookup error_type raises InputPreparationError with the server's reason.

New features

• pipe_io() returns a method's pipe I/O contracts, input form and output form with no dry run, typed from mthds.protocol, alongside the resolved pipe_ref, default_pipe_ref, pending_signatures and is_runnable.
• It accepts files, method_ref or method_id like resolve, plus pipe_ref, all_pipes and include_files; a refused selection raises ApiResponseError.

/rev — round 1, profile 3, bar open on ad7e4f8. Reviewers: cubic, Codex (review mode), code-review (low). None of them reported a finding, so nothing was fixed or deferred. converged — the round-1 pass at profile 3 was clean with full coverage, at or above the required depth of 3; nothing further is warranted.
