# Support Policy

> Stable/LTS support, channels, and backport boundaries.

# Support Policy

## Current position

* Pre-release channels are for evaluation only.
* Stable is the active production channel.
* LTS is defined only after a formal promotion.

## LTS definition (planned)

* Start/end support dates
* Node.js support range
* Supported driver matrix (`mysql`, `pg`, `sqlite`, `mongo`)
* Backport policy

## Supported runtime surface

* Stable/LTS release notes must explicitly list supported Node and driver matrix.
* SQL and Mongo support expectations are documented separately where parity differs.

## Supported and tested prerequisites

The following versions are the current supported and CI-tested prerequisites.

## Backport policy

* Security fixes: backported to active lines.
* Correctness fixes: backported based on risk.
* Feature additions: not backported to maintenance/LTS unless explicit.

## Out of scope

* Unsupported Node versions
* Undocumented internals
* Unofficial forks/custom builds
