Changelog

All notable changes to Batty are documented here.

0.1.0 — 2026-02-24

First public release.

Features

• Core agent runner — spawn coding agents (Claude Code, Codex) in supervised tmux sessions
• Two-tier prompt handling — Tier 1 regex auto-answers for routine prompts, Tier 2 supervisor agent for unknowns
• Policy engine — observe, suggest, act modes controlling how Batty responds to agent prompts
• Kanban-driven workflow — reads kanban-md boards, claims tasks, tracks progress through statuses
• Worktree isolation — each phase run gets its own git worktree for clean parallel work
• Test gates — Definition-of-Done commands must pass before a phase is considered complete
• Pause/resume — detach and reattach to running sessions without losing state
• Parallel execution — --parallel N launches multiple agents with DAG-aware task scheduling
• Merge queue — serialized merge with rebase, test gates, and conflict escalation
• Shell completions — batty completions <bash|zsh|fish>
• Tmux status bar — live task progress, agent state, and phase status in the tmux status line

Bug Fixes

• Fixed CLAUDECODE env var leaking into tmux sessions (blocked nested Claude launches)
• Fixed invalid --prompt flag in Claude adapter (now uses positional argument)
• Fixed batty install not scaffolding .batty/config.toml
• Fixed stale "phase 4 planned" error message in batty work all --parallel
• Fixed conflicting claim identities in parallel mode
• Fixed completion contract defaulting to cargo test when no DoD configured
