TL;DR — an automatically-cut minor release (27 commits since v0.28.0). The headline work: the account-ranking core is now Go-canonical, the account ledger gains a remove verb and phantom-seat dedup, the supervisor gets an explicit enact mode plus several launch fixes, and dos init turns skills/hooks/MCP on by default. Grouped by scope below.

accounts / go

• Account ranking core is Go-canonical. Ported and flipped the truth-pointer to Go on the parity ratchet (docs/386 §6).
• remove verb + phantom-duplicate-seat dedup. The account ledger can retire a seat and collapses duplicate phantom seats.
  • How: src/dos/drivers/account_switcher.py, src/dos/cli.py.
• Rotate-on-wall apply is a two-phase env-override handoff (docs/386 §4).

supervisor / loop

• Explicit supervisor enact mode — the loop names when it acts rather than inferring it.
• Launch fixes — workers launch in the workspace; failed launches are reported; configured/honored worker launch; distinct repeatable lanes fill first.

doctor

• Leaf-name trailers counted in the verifiability headline — trailer-stamped commits register in the score.
• Recommends trailer_stamp on repos that declare Conventional Commits.

init

• Skills + hooks + MCP on by default (docs/303) — a dos init wires the full host integration without extra flags.

salience / completion

• The true-but-PARKED verdict prevents silent loss of a real-but-deferred unit (docs/391).
• Git-sealed acceptance ScopeSource for completion (docs/390).

answer-shape

• Verbosity + degeneration guards in the answer-shape verdict (docs/156).

notify / arbiter / hooks / mcp

• notify: action affordances + fleet process hygiene.
• arbiter: admission defaults to lock modes.
• hooks: StopFailure is a notifier, not a rewake-resumer.
• mcp: the STALLED envelope states only the witnessed missed-budget, not a guessed cause; server launches via the dos-mcp console script.

examples / skills / docs

• examples: an opencode MCP wiring kit.
• skills: serial/concurrent price is the default first move in dos-goal-fleet; trimmed/refreshed shipped skill descriptions.
• codex: recognizes plugin-managed DOS hooks.
• docs: docs/388 session-reopen notification hook; docs/390 adversarial stress-test + typed-contract fold; readme cross-links.
