v2.4.0

Caveman 2.4.0 closes the full weekly issue and PR queue with adversarial review, targeted fixes, and release-grade validation.

Highlights:

• Hardened proxy redirect, authentication, cancellation, and TLS behavior.
• Request-scoped MCP recovery and per-session native-runtime locking.
• Safer Windows hooks and lifecycle handling.
• Stronger compression masking, isolation, accounting, and semantic doctor checks.
• Integrated accepted contributor work with explicit attribution and closure messages.
• Restored documented caveman --version behavior.

Artifacts:

• CLI: npm install -g @caveman-ai/cli@1.3.1
• Signed binaries: bin-v1.1.4

Validation:

• Full CLI suite: 665 tests, 647 passed, 18 skipped, 0 failed.
• Required Linux, macOS, Windows, Go, TypeScript, Python, extension, and root CI passed.
• Clean npm install, signed-binary checksum verification, direct wrap, compression, and byte-exact retrieval smoke passed.
