Canonical changelog: CHANGELOG.md

Highlights

  • This release hardens aoa-agents as a publishable role-contract provider: agent registries now carry explicit artifact identity, the role-registry bundle must pass OS Abyss artifact and subject-store trust gates, and published compatibility is checked at the consumer boundary.
  • Local evidence ports are now explicit without absorbing their stronger owners: evals/ provides a repo-local eval intake/report route, kag/ publishes a canonical seven-index repository family, and stats/ owns the reference-only specialization-eligibility ratio.
  • The full pre-release span was reconstructed from Git rather than from the previous [Unreleased] section: all 27 first-parent commits from v0.4.0 through 766a694 are accounted for below, covering 240 changed paths and 34,254 additions / 1,185 deletions. Only 3 of those 27 commits had updated this changelog before release preparation.

Full Release Notes

Summary

  • This release hardens aoa-agents as a publishable role-contract provider:
    agent registries now carry explicit artifact identity, the role-registry
    bundle must pass OS Abyss artifact and subject-store trust gates, and
    published compatibility is checked at the consumer boundary.
  • Local evidence ports are now explicit without absorbing their stronger
    owners: evals/ provides a repo-local eval intake/report route, kag/
    publishes a canonical seven-index repository family, and stats/ owns the
    reference-only specialization-eligibility ratio.
  • The full pre-release span was reconstructed from Git rather than from the
    previous [Unreleased] section: all 27 first-parent commits from v0.4.0
    through 766a694 are accounted for below, covering 240 changed paths and
    34,254 additions / 1,185 deletions. Only 3 of those 27 commits had updated
    this changelog before release preparation.

Added

  • A repo-local evals/ port with explicit route law, intake, suite, and report
    homes. It can carry local evaluation pressure and results without claiming
    central eval verdict authority.
  • Versioned artifact identity in the agent, cohort, model-tier, and runtime-seam
    registries, backed by shared builder support, schemas, validation, and
    published-consumer tests.
  • An OS Abyss artifact-bundle manifest and release validator for the published
    role registry. The release route now verifies artifact evidence, promotes the
    subject store, and requires the consumer trust gate to return allow or
    warn before publication.
  • An agent-local KAG provider home with owner-return edges, provider manifest,
    MCP source-return projection, validation receipt, and canonical repository
    indexes for source surfaces, entities, artifacts, anchors, events,
    assertions, and relations.
  • An owner-local stats/ port now reports the reference-only ratio of current
    role-specialization eligibility records whose explicit owner decision is
    eligible, using the shared aoa-stats measurement protocol without
    claiming projection or install authority.

Changed

  • Decision-index generation now requires every modeled decision surface to be
    an explicit list and rejects unmodeled decision-lane surfaces instead of
    silently omitting them.
  • Repo-local KAG publication is now a deterministic CI contract: the builder
    action is pinned, the complete index family is checked for parity, lineage
    and streaming contracts are carried, and history remains stable across
    squash landing.
  • The current contour once again exposes Titan role routes and now routes the
    complete generated Titan Codex agent family rather than only Atlas.toml.
  • Runnable validation and test commands are consolidated in executable owners
    and AGENTS.md route cards instead of general Markdown documentation.

Fixed

  • Specialization-eligibility validation now reports readiness-builder failures
    and malformed readiness fields instead of collapsing them into ambiguous
    downstream errors.
  • Source-home validation rejects undeclared top-level agent directories, while
    experience/adoption validators require their exact schema and example file
    sets, including the arena-exclusion examples.
  • Agon formation validators forward the selected dependency root and aggregate
    all subvalidator exits; Titan schema validation discovers nested schemas
    recursively.
  • Recurrence component manifests validate literal repository-path fields and
    their generated boundary/readiness companions were refreshed.
  • The root validation lane now requires the portable agent-memo validator.
  • Published role-registry compatibility checks now reject identity, bundle,
    subject-store, and consumer-contract drift at the actual handoff boundary.

Validation

  • Release preparation reconciled the exact v0.4.0..766a694 first-parent
    history, changed-path inventory, source owners, generated registries,
    decision/index contracts, local evidence ports, and published-consumer
    boundary instead of treating the prior [Unreleased] text as complete.
  • The release gate validates source and mechanics contracts, generated drift,
    decision indexes, the complete repo-local KAG family, the local stats port,
    portable memo validation, published consumer feeds, and the OS Abyss
    role-registry artifact/subject-store trust route.

Notes

  • The local eval port does not become central proof authority; the KAG provider
    does not become global knowledge truth; the stats packet does not become a
    cross-owner metric; and artifact identity does not grant runtime install or
    projection authority.
  • Release-only marker, changelog, and regenerated-index commits follow the 27
    reconciled product/maintenance commits and are not hidden inside that count.
