fix(email): fail loudly on a dead worker and reconcile the package docs - #2479
Conversation
The TUI can only talk to agents over a stdin/stdout pipe, but the email agent has been a daemon-managed HTTP sidecar since #2191 — so it shows up in the hub greyed out and unusable. This plan scopes what it takes to make it a first-class TUI agent: install/run/uninstall from the hub and the command line, interactive-and-autonomous by default, and a settings screen. Also records two findings that shape the design: the CLI console auto-approves every gated tool (send, forward, permanent delete), and the canonical /query SSE contract cannot complete a confirmation-gated action.
Once the TUI can install, run, and configure the email agent, the gaia email subcommand is a second front door to the same sidecar with none of the UI. Scopes its removal, and pins the sequencing risk: it must land last, after the replacement is verified, or we delete the only working entry point first. Only the email subcommand is in scope — the rest of the legacy Python CLI is retired separately.
The user-journey design challenged ten points in the port plan; seven are accepted here. The biggest: preflight was scoped as late polish, but without it every transport failure reaches the user as a raw HTTP status — so it becomes Phase 1's exit test instead. Also drops 'always allow' on irreversible actions, replaces the three-level autonomy enum with fixed approval behaviour plus a background-work checklist, and moves background scanning from a TUI timer to launch time. Settings shrink to what actually persists, with the config and jobs APIs filed as #2470 and #2471.
…rt plan The plan told the decommission phase to keep src/gaia/daemon/agent_query.py because it was 'the generic daemon thin-client used by more than email'. That is false: run_query and ConsoleRenderer have exactly two callers, both inside the email handler being deleted, so removing the subcommand orphans all 346 lines. Left uncorrected, that phase would have kept dead code on a premise nobody would re-check. Reframed as an explicit choice — keep it as the reference implementation the Go transport mirrors (and say so in the module), or delete it with the subcommand — rather than a false statement of fact. Also ignores .claudia-worktrees/, which held six full checkouts one 'git add -A' away from being committed, and fixes two drifted line references.
The sidecar's QueryRequest.context is a required List with extras forbidden, so a null is a 422. A Go nil slice marshals to null, which means the obvious implementation fails on the very first turn — the one case with no history — and works on every turn after. A mocked 200 hides it entirely. Calls for initializing the slice and asserting the serialized body contains "context":[] rather than asserting the mock was called.
The TUI could only talk to agents it spawned itself as a subprocess, so the email agent — a long-lived HTTP sidecar the GAIA daemon starts, supervises and reverse-proxies — was visible in the hub but unreachable. The TUI is now a second thin client of the same relay `gaia email` uses: it discovers the daemon, ensures the sidecar, and streams the canonical seven-event `/query` contract. The subprocess transport is untouched, so the bash agent keeps working. Daemon discovery mirrors src/gaia/daemon: instance.json is trusted only after BOTH the recorded pid is alive AND a token-authed /daemon/v1/status probe answers with our service id and that same pid (a recycled port after a crash is a real case). Start-or-attach takes the same flock so two callers yield one daemon. The client token is re-read on any 401 — it rotates on every daemon restart — and never cached, logged, or printed; the sidecar's own bearer is discarded with the ensure response and never leaves the daemon. A stream that ends without a terminal final/error is reported as a failure, not an empty answer, and a turn is appended to the pushed transcript only when it terminated in `final` so a failed turn cannot poison the next one. Unknown event types and unparseable frames are surfaced instead of dropped. Also fixes three latent bugs found while in here: - an agent path containing a space was re-split on whitespace and never found; - cancelling a turn abandoned the read without stopping the child, so the tail of that turn's output surfaced as the next turn's events; - ChatModel held its streaming buffer in a strings.Builder, which panics the moment a copied non-zero Builder is written again — that would have crashed the TUI on the second streamed token of every answer.
Found by pointing the new client at a real running GAIA daemon rather than the test fake. Three fixes, none of which the fake server could surface: `Client.Do` defaulted to the status-probe HTTP client, whose 1.5s timeout is deliberately tiny because a live daemon answers loopback in milliseconds. Any relay call taking longer than that timed out: `GET /v1/email/init` does real work (probing Lemonade, the model and connectors) and failed with a misleading "context deadline exceeded" instead of returning its readiness report. Nothing shipped today relied on the default — every current caller passes its own client — but the Phase 2 install/catalog calls and the Phase 5 preflight screen would each have walked straight into it. Do() now defaults to a general 60s client and the probe timeout is confined to the probe. A cancel POST for a run that is no longer in flight answers 404 by design, which is exactly the case when we abandon a stream that already ended. That was being logged as a failed cancel; it is now reported as "already finished". Also: a `data` line with no colon carries an empty value per the SSE spec, which the reference implementation's str.partition yields but strings.Cut discarded; and Close() landing while a query request is in flight no longer registers an un-cancellable run.
…try point Two independent reviews of the Phase 1 transport, plus a run against a real daemon. Everything below was found after the first commit was already green on 106 tests, which is the argument for the review pass rather than against it. Cancelling a subprocess turn emitted a spurious "agent process exited with code -1" bubble under the "cancelled" line about half the time: killing the child made the reader see a non-zero exit and a closed pipe, and it reported both as agent failures. A deliberate kill is not an error. The `emit` helper also selected over a ready channel send and a ready ctx.Done() simultaneously, so Go picked at random — it is now deterministic. Reproduced at 5/12 runs before the fix; a regression test now runs the cancel path eight times. The same cancel path could panic the TUI. `Send` read the stdin pipe outside the mutex while the cancel goroutine nil'd it, so a turn started right after a cancel could write to a nil pipe or scan a nil scanner. Turn state is now captured under one lock acquisition. Relatedly, killing also reaped the child while the reader was still reading its stdout pipe, which os/exec explicitly forbids — reaping is now the reader's job alone. A second test drives ten cancel-then-send cycles. The turn after a cancel could also silently produce nothing: the early-return paths skipped the reset, so the next turn reused the child that had just been killed. Found by the new test, not by review. A late-arriving event from a cancelled turn could tear down whichever turn was running by then — Bubble Tea cannot cancel a dispatched Cmd, so the old waitForEvent goroutine delivers whenever its channel finally closes. Events now carry the channel they came from and a superseded turn is ignored. The SSE client no longer holds that channel open behind a 10s cancel POST either. Nothing bounded the wait for response headers, so a daemon that accepted the connection and never answered hung the caller forever with a spinning cursor — the Python reference gets this for free from its read timeout. A recycled pid whose port was answered by an unrelated process permanently blocked daemon start, even though the probe had already proved the record was garbage; stale records are now classified so only our own wedged daemon is left alone. A 401 from a relayed call now blames the sidecar instead of sending the user to restart the daemon. Finally, the transport had no user-reachable entry point at all — roughly 1,700 lines that a reviewer could not exercise, and that Phase 2 would have been the first thing to drive. `gaia tui chat --agent <id>` now runs any catalog agent over whatever transport it declares, and with `--query` it is a genuine one-shot: answer on stdout, progress on stderr, exit 0/1, no alt screen. Driving it against the live daemon showed a bare "HTTP 404", so that case now explains that the installed sidecar predates the canonical /query contract. Transport selection moved off the Bubble Tea model into client.ForAgent so the headless paths do not need a UI, and the cancel path moved out of the daemon control-plane client into the SSE transport that owns the agent wire contract. The legacy event vocabulary is now marked frozen so new UI features are not built twice. Correcting the first commit's message: it said the daemon token is "never cached", which is stronger than the code. The token is re-read on every 401, never logged and never printed, and the sidecar bearer is discarded — but the last verified instance is held in memory so a run can be cancelled.
Teaches the TUI to reach agents through the daemon relay instead of only spawning a local binary over a pipe — the prerequisite for the email agent, which has been a daemon-managed sidecar since #2191 and so could never work over the subprocess path.
There was no way to exercise the TUI without a human at the keyboard, and no
way for a user to watch an assistant use it. `gaia tui --control` now exposes a
loopback HTTP API that injects keys into the *running* Bubble Tea program and
serves back the frame it just rendered, and an MCP server wraps that as tools —
so Claude Code can navigate the hub, filter, type, and launch agents while the
user watches the same terminal update in real time.
Go side (tui/internal/control/): a Recorder wraps the root model so every
View() is cached, and named keys map to real tea.KeyMsg values. The existing
smoke tests send tea.KeyMsg{Type: KeyRunes, Runes: []rune("tab")} — three
letters, not the Tab key — so the mapping is contract-tested by asserting
KeyMsgFor(name).String() round-trips to the name the handlers switch on.
POST /wait is what makes automation reliable: it blocks on a broadcast channel
until the screen or the reported model state matches, and a timeout reports
what the screen actually contained. Callers no longer busy-poll.
Injection is synchronous end-to-end: tea.Program.Send only queues, so a
trailing sentinel message is used to answer /keys only once every key in the
batch has been handled and drawn. Without it a four-key batch returned with one
key applied.
Python side (gaia.mcp.servers.tui_mcp, `gaia mcp tui`): discovery reads
~/.gaia/tui/control.json (0600) and trusts it only when the recorded pid is
alive and a token-authed probe answers with a matching pid — a recycled port
after a crash is a real case. Loopback-only hosts are enforced client-side too,
since the bearer token rides every request.
Test plan:
- cd tui && make lint && go test ./... -race
- pytest tests/unit/test_tui_mcp.py
- pytest tests/integration/test_tui_control_e2e.py (boots the real Go server
and drives it with the real Python client; skips without a Go toolchain)
Rebasing onto the transport work collided two same-named helpers in package ui — the one-shot test's local run() and the control server's run(). Renamed the test helper to captureOneShot; the production name stays. Also corrects which server owns port 8766 (the MCP bridge, not agent_ui_mcp).
Lets an assistant drive the live TUI the user is watching — read the rendered screen, send keys and text, wait on conditions — so the terminal UI can finally be exercised and regression-tested without a human at the keyboard. Its own review pass caught six real bugs, including a key batch that was acknowledged before it was applied and stdio logging that corrupted the JSON-RPC stream (the latter also affects the shipped Agent UI MCP — #2472).
Before: an agent driven from a CLI or a subprocess executed every
confirmation-gated tool with no prompt at all. `OutputHandler.confirm_tool_execution`
returned True unconditionally and no CLI console overrode it, so the entire
mechanism was inert outside the Agent UI. In practice that meant `gaia email -i`
could send, forward, RSVP to, and permanently delete mail on the model's say-so,
and any agent could run shell commands and overwrite files, with no prompt and no
event the user could see.
After: gated tools prompt on the terminal — the tool name, its literal arguments,
and a yes/no answer that defaults to no (Ctrl-C and EOF also mean no). "Always
allow" is per tool and per console, and is not offered for run_shell_command /
run_cli_command, where the name says nothing about the next call. With no terminal
to ask on — piped stdin, redirected stdout, CI, a subprocess host — the tool is
denied with an actionable error naming both ways forward, instead of running
silently. The agent loop still returns {"status": "denied"}, so the model can
explain itself rather than the run crashing.
Details worth knowing:
- Silence covers narration, not consent. `gaia chat` builds a SilentConsole even
for a user sitting at a terminal, so the prompt lives in a mixin shared by both
CLI consoles; otherwise the flagship path would have gone from "runs gated tools
unasked" to "refuses them unasked".
- The gate itself never raises. A malformed tool_args from the model, a detached
tty that errors on read, or a closed stdout all resolve to a logged denial —
because the tool used to just run, an exception escaping here would be a new way
to kill a working session, and `Agent._execute_tool`'s callers do not catch.
- The unattended opt-in (GAIA_AUTO_APPROVE_TOOLS=1, or auto_approve_gated_tools on
the console) is read from the environment as it was at startup, so a
project-local .env cannot switch off a user's prompts. Every approval taken that
way is logged with the tool name.
- The Agent UI path is untouched: it still emits permission_request, blocks on the
modal, and denies on timeout; a new test pins that end to end through the gate.
Background/autonomous ticks keep their existing auto-deny.
- The OpenAI-compatible API server and scheduled UI runs have no channel to ask a
human, so they now deny rather than approve. Documented in the CLI reference,
troubleshooting, the console spec, and the API-server and output-handler pages.
Denial reasons are bound to the tool they belong to, so a handler that denies
without recording one can never report another tool's explanation. Argument
shortening is display-only — an approved write receives the full content.
Confirmation-gated tools — send, forward, permanent delete, RSVP, shell, file write — executed with no prompt and no record whenever an agent was driven from a CLI or subprocess, because the base handler answered yes on the user's behalf. It now denies by default and the terminal console genuinely asks. Unattended hosts opt in with GAIA_AUTO_APPROVE_TOOLS=1, which deliberately cannot be granted by a .env file — a project file travelling with a directory is not an operator's decision. The SSE approval path is unchanged.
`gaia_agent_email/cli.py` was an in-process argparse entry point that nothing imported and no console script exposed. Its docstring still claimed `gaia.cli.handle_email_command` invoked it, which stopped being true at #2191 when that handler became a thin daemon relay — so the file was both dead and actively misleading about how a query reaches the agent. The sidecar (`gaia-agent-email serve` -> POST /query) is the only supported entry point; an in-process CLI would bypass its caller auth, trust gate, and SSE translation. Adds a guard test so the module can't creep back silently.
…orecard The npm package shipped two different scores for the same version: README and EVALUATION advertised 83.4/100 while the co-located SCORECARD.md — machine- generated from a real 3-run eval for v0.5.0 — reported 84.53. 83.4 is the 0.3.0-era number; the prose was never refreshed when the scorecard was regenerated, so an integrator comparing the two pages saw the package contradict itself about its own benchmark. SCORECARD.md's aggregate.value is the source of truth, so the prose moves to it. The CHANGELOG's 83.4 under 0.3.0 stays as-is: per-version entries are a historical record, and rewriting one would falsify the release history. Adds a guard that fails whenever a prose score claim drifts from the generated aggregate again, since prose does not regenerate with the eval.
…f hardcoding it The generated capability matrix contradicted itself inside one file: the Definitions section said the REST API has "16 functional verbs" while the matrix header five lines below computed 21 from the live OpenAPI spec. Anyone reading the doc to size the REST surface got the wrong number from the more prominent of the two. The 16 was a literal inside TOOLS_COUNT_DEFINITION, so the existing byte-identical drift guard could never catch it — regeneration reproduced the same stale literal. The blurb is now a template fed by the derived counts, and the two stale literals that had spread to a module comment and the gaia-agent.yaml comment are gone with it. Regenerated: 16 -> 21.
…nswer
Two swallowed failures on the same SSE path made an internal crash look like
the agent simply had nothing to say. The queue drain caught bare `Exception`
where it meant `queue.Empty`, so any non-Empty error read as "queue drained";
the stream then synthesized `{"type": "run_complete", "answer": ""}` — a
well-formed *successful* completion — whenever the worker thread had died
without emitting a terminal event. A client could not tell the two apart.
The drain now catches `queue.Empty` only, matching the sibling query route,
and a dead worker emits an `error` event naming the failure and the sidecar log
to check before the stream closes.
…profile Two degradations that left no trace at all. A malformed GAIA_EMAIL_TRIAGE_MAX_MESSAGES silently reverted to the 100-message default, and a negative or zero value was clamped to 1. The eval harness sets that variable to cover the whole labelled corpus, so a typo produced a quietly smaller scan and therefore a quietly different score with nothing to notice — exactly the regression-hiding the rule exists to stop. It now raises ConfigurationError naming the bad value and the way out, matching config._undo_window_seconds, which already handled the identical shape this way. An unreadable sender-profile row was reset to an empty record with no log, throwing away the reply-latency and interaction history that drives priority-sender promotion, while the sibling read paths log the same corruption class. The reset stays fail-soft — one bad row must not kill behavioral learning — but now says which sender lost what.
…CLI claim CONTRACT.md — the doc that calls itself the contract reference — declared schema 2.3 while contract.py has been on 2.5 since #2154. Both additive bumps (2.4's /v1/email/query agent loop, 2.5's /v1/connections OAuth intake) shipped without a history row, and every copy-pasteable JSON example told integrators to send the stale version. The same file still explained that the interactive CLI loads the model at 32K via an `agent_context_sizes` registry in src/gaia/cli.py; that registry no longer exists and no CLI loads a model at all since #2191 made every front-door relay to the sidecar. npm/SPEC.md stated the contract version as 2.4 without saying whose — true of the client, wrong for the sidecar it documents. Now says both and why 2.4 requests still work. Adds guards tying CONTRACT.md's headline, examples, and history table to contract.SCHEMA_VERSION, so the next bump cannot land doc-less.
…tops startup Follow-up to the fail-loudly pass: raising from _inbox_scan_ceiling() achieved nothing. Both scanning tools call it inside their own `except Exception -> _envelope_err`, so the ConfigurationError was caught two lines later and handed to the LLM as a per-call error string. An eval run with a typo'd GAIA_EMAIL_TRIAGE_MAX_MESSAGES would have failed every triage call, apologised, and still written a scorecard — worse than the silent default it replaced. The resolver moves to config.py beside default_undo_window_seconds and becomes an EmailAgentConfig field, so a bad value fails construction, where an operator sees it. Blank now means "unset" on both, matching that precedent. Also from review: the profile-reset warnings logged a raw sender address at WARNING, which gaia diagnostics bundles into user-attached bug reports — they log the store row id instead. CONTRACT.md's new version-policy sentence contradicted the 2.3 row it introduced (a breaking change shipped as a MINOR, which clients gate on MAJOR alone and never saw), and its ctx note overreached: gaia eval benchmark does still build the agent in-process. The docs site repeated the stale 2.3 schema claim and is now guarded with CONTRACT.md.
… environment The config field added in the previous commit was validated at construction and then never read: both scanning tools still called the env resolver on every invocation. `EmailAgentConfig(inbox_scan_ceiling=500)` was accepted and silently ignored, and because the resolution happened per call the ceiling could move underneath a live agent when the environment changed mid-run. The registrar now resolves it once, preferring the config and falling back to the same env resolution for the duck-typed configs some hosts pass (the existing `debug` flag reads the same way). Tests cover all three: explicit config wins, a config without the field still works, and the value is stable across calls. Also drops the ✅ the debug playground printed on an empty `run_complete` — a dead worker now emits an error event immediately before it, and a green check after that read as success. Reverts drive-by reformatting of 13 untouched files from a whole-tree black run.
Request changes — the code is merge-quality; the PR packaging is what needs workThis is unusually disciplined, security-conscious work: the #2210 change makes confirmation-gated tools fail closed (deny when no human can be asked) instead of silently auto-approving, the new TUI control server is hardened (constant-time token auth, loopback-only, The two things that hold this back are about the PR itself, not the code: 1.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The dead-worker fix is right — a thread that dies outside its error path now streams an actionable error before the terminal run_complete instead of a blank successful answer (the except Exception can't catch a BaseException thread death, so the drain-loop branch is the real reach), and it's covered by a KeyboardInterrupt-raising stub. The version/contract reconciliation is consistent and code-verified.
One gap, and it lands squarely in this PR's stated purpose (doc reconciliation): the two user-observable changes aren't named in either CHANGELOG. Add to the python [Unreleased]:
- a worker that dies without its error path now streams an
errorevent instead of an empty successfulrun_complete— a blank answer can no longer read as success; GAIA_EMAIL_TRIAGE_MAX_MESSAGESis now resolved at config construction — a non-integer/non-positive value raises at startup instead of silently clamping to 100.
Mirror the user-facing one in the npm CHANGELOG. That closes it out.
# GAIA v0.23.0 Release Notes GAIA v0.23.0 makes the agents easier to get, safer to run, and easier to extend. You can now browse, install, and run agents straight from the terminal with `gaia hub`, and add new capabilities to an agent as signed, auditable skills. Under the surface it's a security release: the local API and MCP bridge no longer expose themselves to the network by default, the confirmation prompt that pauses an agent before it sends mail, writes a file, or runs a command now works from the terminal and over the local API and MCP — not just inside the graphical app — and an agent can no longer quietly reach into your `~/.gaia` config or slip crafted SQL into the database agent. Connecting a Microsoft account is now an explicit Personal-or-Work/School choice with a zero-setup sign-in. **Why upgrade:** - **Get agents from the terminal** — `gaia hub` browses, installs (behind a trust prompt for unverified agents), runs, and removes agents without leaving the shell. - **Every agent asks before it acts** — the confirmation gate for sending mail, writing files, and running commands now works in the terminal, over the local API, and across MCP tools, not only in the Agent UI. - **Safer by default** — the MCP bridge binds to localhost, the local API refuses credentialed cross-origin requests from arbitrary sites, MCP servers launch without a shell, and an agent can't write into `~/.gaia` or reach the database with crafted SQL. - **Build and share skills safely** — `gaia skill` makes skills first-class: create, import, sign with trust tiers, and audit them before sharing. They're opt-in — you add the ones you want. - **Connect a Microsoft account without a secret** — Personal and Work/School are now separate connectors with device-code sign-in and no client secret required. <Note> **The email agent is beta and CLI-first this release.** It runs locally and never sends, forwards, or deletes without your confirmation — that safety gate is verified. This cycle was mostly robustness and correctness: sturdier Outlook and calendar handling, honest reporting when a scan is truncated, and a long list of fixes (see Bug Fixes). It's still early — a full inbox triage can currently time out on larger mailboxes, and autonomy is experimental and not yet wired up in the packaged sidecar. Treat its output as a draft to review, and please report what you run into. </Note> ## Breaking Changes ### `GAIA_MICROSOFT_TENANT` is gone The Microsoft connector was split into two explicit connectors — Personal and Work/School — each with its own hard-coded tenant, so the `GAIA_MICROSOFT_TENANT` environment variable no longer does anything and has been removed (PR [amd#2729](amd#2729)). If you set it to work around the old single-connector tenant guessing, drop it and pick the connector that matches your account instead (see *Microsoft accounts* below). ## What's New ### Install and run agents from the terminal — `gaia hub` Getting an agent used to mean the graphical app or a manual pip install. Now the hub is in your shell: `gaia hub list` shows the catalog, `gaia hub install <agent> --trust` installs one (the `--trust` is required for an unverified agent — it will not install silently), and `gaia hub uninstall <agent>` removes it. The install → run → uninstall round-trip works end to end against the live catalog, with the trust prompt actually enforced (PRs [amd#2484](amd#2484), [amd#2530](amd#2530), [amd#2708](amd#2708)). Try it: `gaia hub list`. ### Every agent asks before it acts — beyond the Agent UI The confirmation prompt that pauses an agent before a consequential action — sending or deleting mail, writing a file, running a shell command — used to work only inside the Agent UI; from a terminal, the local API, or an MCP tool call those actions could run unprompted. This release closes those paths: the gate now fires from a plain terminal, through the `gaia api` server, and across MCP tool calls, classifying a tool as read-only or mutating and failing closed when unsure. The agent stops and asks before the action, declining leaves nothing changed, and setting `GAIA_AUTO_APPROVE_TOOLS=1` in your environment is the explicit way to opt out (PRs [amd#2475](amd#2475), [amd#2544](amd#2544), [amd#2846](amd#2846), [amd#2854](amd#2854)). ### Safer by default — a security-focused release Several local exposures are closed this release. The MCP bridge binds to `127.0.0.1` by default instead of every interface, so it isn't reachable from other machines on your network unless you pass a bind-all host, and it can now require an `--auth-token` that is actually enforced rather than ignored. The local API server no longer echoes an arbitrary origin back with credentials allowed — a cross-origin request from a site that isn't allow-listed is refused. MCP servers are launched without going through a shell, so a server name can't smuggle shell metacharacters; an agent can no longer write into your `~/.gaia` configuration; and SQL supplied by the model is blocked from reaching the database agent's statements rather than being executed (PRs [amd#2246](amd#2246), [amd#2238](amd#2238), [amd#2344](amd#2344), [amd#2844](amd#2844), [amd#2847](amd#2847), [amd#2860](amd#2860)). ### Build and share skills — `gaia skill` A skill gives an agent a new capability from a folder with a manifest — no new Python, no forking the agent. `gaia skill create <name>` scaffolds one, `gaia skill import` adds a skill so an agent can discover it, and `gaia skill list` / `info` show what's installed and the permissions each one declares. Sharing is guarded: skills carry signatures with trust tiers — an unsigned or untrusted skill is capped at the lowest tier, and tampering is caught by checksum — a pre-publish audit rejects a skill that attempts prompt injection or `shell=True`/`eval`, and `gaia skill migrate` converts skills authored in other formats. Skills are opt-in: no agent loads them automatically yet, so you add the ones you want (PRs [amd#2669](amd#2669), [amd#2692](amd#2692), [amd#2702](amd#2702), [amd#2693](amd#2693)). Try it: `gaia skill list`. ### Microsoft accounts: Personal and Work/School, no secret required Connecting a Microsoft account is now two clear choices instead of one connector guessing your tenant. `gaia connectors list` shows Microsoft as two distinct connectors — Personal and Work/School — each with a zero-setup device-code sign-in (a code and a URL to visit) and no client secret required for a public app registration (PRs [amd#2718](amd#2718), [amd#2364](amd#2364)). ### Lemonade Server 11.5.0 This release runs against Lemonade Server 11.5.0 — the version installed by `gaia init` and pinned across CI and the installer. ## Bug Fixes A selection of the user-visible fixes this release — the full list is in the changelog below. - **Triage now paginates large inboxes and reports truncation honestly** (PR [amd#2646](amd#2646)) — no more silently dropping mail past a hidden limit. - **Thread messages come back sorted and numbered** (PR [amd#2570](amd#2570)) — "reply to 3" hits the message shown at position 3, not raw backend order. - **The inbox pre-scan stops reporting a guess as a verdict** (PR [amd#2587](amd#2587)) — an uncertain classification is surfaced as uncertain. - **An email conversation survives its turns** (PR [amd#2837](amd#2837)) — a follow-up question keeps the session context instead of starting over. - **A bare reconnect no longer guts a mailbox** (PR [amd#2733](amd#2733)) — reconnecting an account keeps its existing grants instead of wiping them. - **Restore from Trash anytime** (PR [amd#2542](amd#2542)) — undo an archive/trash without a narrow time window; the dead permanent-delete path was removed. - **A low-priority sender no longer forces a promotional label** (PR [amd#2774](amd#2774)) — sender priority stops overriding the actual content classification. - **The agent survives an OpenMP double-init** (PR [amd#2508](amd#2508)) — a mid-conversation native-library clash no longer kills the run. - **Large tool results are truncated to valid JSON** (PR [amd#2645](amd#2645)) — an oversized result no longer produces unparseable output. - **A missing model surfaces as a real 404** (PR [amd#2245](amd#2245)) — the builder names the missing model instead of a generic placeholder. -

Re-verified end to end after merging current `main` (334 commits since v0.22.0), because the delta touched the MCP bridge, hub, skills, and connectors — the exact surfaces the notes assert. <details> <summary>Verification results, what broadened, and what was excluded</summary> **Re-verified against the current pin and kept:** `gaia hub` install/run/uninstall (trust gate enforced); the confirmation gate now covering terminal + `gaia api` + MCP tool calls (fail-closed classifier proven model-free — amd#2846/amd#2854); localhost binding + stricter CORS + enforced MCP `--auth-token` + shell-less MCP launch + `~/.gaia` write guard + CWE-89 SQL block (amd#2844/amd#2847/amd#2860, live probes); `gaia skill` create/import/list/info plus signed-tier + pre-publish-audit + migrate (amd#2692/amd#2702/amd#2693); the Microsoft connector split (two connectors, secretless PKCE — amd#2896's third connector is Gmail, so the wording is not stale). **Broadened this cycle:** the confirmation-gate claim (blocking gap amd#2846 merged) and the security section (four verified hardening items). The skills section is stated **opt-in** (amd#2848: no shipped agent loads skills by default). **Removed:** the onboarding / day-zero discovery headline — the scanner works on macOS, but the first-run onboarding flow it feeds is not ready to ship, so it is not claimed (the underlying commit amd#2747 remains in the changelog). **Excluded (not claimable):** a skills-by-default claim (false — amd#2848); the C++ SDK (real and CI-green but ships no user-facing artifact and predates this release); the prebuilt terminal-hub binary ("not yet distributed"). Claims that failed live verification remain filed as open bugs, not shipped: amd#2883, amd#2884, amd#2885, amd#2893, amd#2894. Email ships as a beta note whose only asserted behavior — never sending or deleting without confirmation — is verified. </details> ## Release checklist - [x] `util/validate_release_notes.py` passes - [x] `docs && npx mintlify validate` passes - [x] `src/gaia/version.py` → `0.23.0`; `LEMONADE_VERSION` → `11.5.0` - [x] webui `package.json` / `package-lock.json` → `0.23.0` - [x] Navbar label → `v0.23.0 · Lemonade 11.5.0` - [x] All 334 commits in range represented in the changelog - [x] Branch merged current with `main`; `setup.py` keeps `mcp<2.0` - [ ] Review from @kovtcharov-amd addressed --------- Co-authored-by: Kalin Ovtcharov <kalin@extropolis.ai> Co-authored-by: k <k@e>
The agent could stream a blank answer as success after its worker had died, and a bad inbox scan ceiling degraded quietly instead of stopping startup. Both now fail loudly.
Also settles two documentation contradictions at the source rather than patching the symptom: the package advertised an eval score its own scorecard disagreed with, and the capability matrix hardcoded a verb count that its own generated table contradicted. Deletes the dead in-package CLI module retired by #2191.
