Open Pstack 1.8.6 gives workers a shared parent-owned Git contract
Published with the maintainer's explicit release exception for the outstanding Claude Code checks listed below. Those checks remain unverified; this publication does not close them.
Cursor baseline: 0.15.5. Issue #57.
Native and external workers now receive the same parent-owned Git and handoff instructions. The runner distinguishes delivered handoffs from task completion, while the parent can validate a scoped checkpoint and record an idempotent operation before continuing a blocked execution. Same-route continuation requires explicit saved policy and parent inspection evidence. Strict confinement reports unsupported on every route until a live runtime boundary is proven; the default legacy contract remains prompt guidance.
