Bello 0.8.0

Bello 0.8.0

What's new

• Goal mode: work toward the original objective until completion review accepts it, with runtime supervision, unlimited completion returns and a concise GOAL_MAP.md of attempts. Adversary remains optional and bounded.
• No Need For Context (NNC): configurable context summarization for native Codex, Claude Code subscriptions and Pi. Original instructions and complete recent interactions are retained; NNC does not change sandbox permissions. It is off by default, with a 200,000-token threshold and a 10% recent-tail target when enabled.
• Smart Execution: on by default for new configurations, with event-driven tool execution across supported coder, reviewer and child sessions. Explicit saved settings are preserved.
• Native helper delivery: qualified Codex NNC and Smart Execution helpers for Apple Silicon, Linux x86_64 and Windows x86_64, with pinned downloads and hashes.
• Updated configuration advisor and plugin: explicit Goal, Smart Execution and NNC recommendations, supported role/subagent profiles, and accurate cheap-runtime settings.
• Runtime reliability: improved context handoff, summary deadlines and cancellation, cross-provider role handling, portable tests, and package validation.

Install or update

pipx install bello
# Existing installations:
bello update

For Claude Code support, install the claude extra. Existing explicit project settings are preserved. Configure Goal and NNC before a fresh run.

The release includes a portable wheel, a native Windows wheel and a source distribution. Platform tests and clean-install validation cover Linux, macOS and Windows; existing platform skips and expected failures remain distinguished from passing tests.
