v2.1.3

Summary

Release v2.1.3 ships on-demand HITL (ADR-17), the canonical preference memory v2 (ADR-16, #162), C-tier visual acceptance, and codegen/build-repair improvements. It also covers the previously untagged 2.1.2 scope, since v2.1.2 never got a tag or release.

Highlights

On-demand HITL — ask_user (ADR-17)

• Model-invoked ask_user inline tool with budget and phase wiring
• Plan-node ask_user interception with pause and auto-continue
• agent_question card in the Forge HITL panel

Preference memory v2 (ADR-16, #162)

• Closed preference catalog with typed slots and alias normalization
• user_preferences_v2 store with policy service
• Operation-style extraction protocol and node-scoped injection with source and confidence
• GET/PATCH /me/preferences moves to catalog-slot shape with archival semantics
• Legacy migration script and catalog-key eval

C-tier visual acceptance

• Platform-configured vision model for visual acceptance
• Multimodal content parts in provider.complete
• Visual-acceptance warnings on playtest success; admin UI settings
• Deterministic layout comparison for visual acceptance

Codegen & build repair

• Structured continuation context beyond the fixed tail window
• Structured dependency diagnosis hints for build repair
• Checkpoint perf: commit-then-cache Redis publish, revision-only load check (#158, #164)

Upgrade notes

• No new required env vars for default behavior; see backend/.env.example for the new HITL and preference-memory settings
• Run backend migrations as usual (Alembic) — includes the user_preferences_v2 store
• API change: /me/preferences now uses the catalog-slot shape (see contracts/CHANGELOG.md)
