LocalSetup 4.53.1

LocalSetup 4.53.1

LocalSetup 4.53.1 gives AI coding agents a shared standard for how to work. The refreshed homepage explains how to keep development practices and useful project knowledge in reviewable files, reuse them across supported tools, and get started with less repeated setup.

Highlights

• Put your standards first: the homepage introduces LocalSetup as an open-source operating framework for development standards, reusable knowledge, and consistent workflows. A practical project example shows how to use it. The existing hero artwork stays in place.
• Keep the voice consistent: the branding guide and repository instructions now call for plain language, concrete benefits, and clear explanations. Persistence means files that agents can read and review; each client still follows its own loading rules and permissions.
• See how the tools fit together: the homepage links to Envman and bbackup (BestBackup), explains their roles in the CruxExperts ecosystem, and distinguishes optional Envman integration from an independent backup tool.

Compatibility

This patch changes documentation and branding guidance. Commands, installation paths, supported clients, package selection, runtime dependencies, and public interfaces are unchanged.

Reusable standards remain ordinary reviewable files. Their use depends on client loading, selected packages, permissions, and the instructions available to the agent; this release does not add permanent memory inside models or promise identical behavior across clients.

Envman integration remains optional. BestBackup is a complementary independent tool, not a bundled requirement.

Published v4.53.0 is the verified baseline. The branding source slice advances it once to 4.53.1. Release preparation, anchor maintenance, version synchronization, and generated documentation add no further increment. Historical release records, tags, and assets remain unchanged.

Update

Read the homepage for the new product introduction and the branding guide for the writing guidance.

Use the existing quickstart to install or refresh selected packages. No configuration migration or dependency update is required for this patch.

Verification

Validate the final signed candidate through the required GitHub checks, including all eight Python shards, generated documentation and version synchronization, shell smoke and framework audit, and deterministic quality checks. Review the rendered README and verify its local links and preserved hero.

Before publication, verify the signed tag and exact source commit, download the framework archive with its .sha256 checksum and .cdx.json SBOM sidecars, and run verify-release against that commit. Validate the SDK payload in the wheel and source distribution and check their licenses and file hashes.

Exercise an isolated installation from the actual release artifacts. These checks cover this documentation patch and the packaged files; they do not establish live model-provider behavior or remote service deployment.

Download the archive with its .sha256 checksum and .cdx.json SBOM sidecars, then follow the release guide.
