Littlepowers 1.3.0 — Review Lease and parallel workflows
Important
Littlepowers 1.3.0 writes schema-4 ledgers. A 1.2 runtime cannot read them.
Before rolling back, cancel any open Review Gate, pause or finish the workflow,
restore its matching pre-schema4 schema-3 archive, and only then install 1.2.
Do not hot-replace Littlepowers inside an active task.
Littlepowers 1.3.0 is the stable Review Lease release for Codex, Claude Code,
Qoder, and OpenCode. It keeps planning proportional and model-neutral while
making approved outcomes, review boundaries, and parallel worktree status more
durable and deterministic.
Highlights
- Review Lease: four explicit policies cover blocking review, a fixed
implementation mandate, timed fallback, and unattended continuation. Gates
bind the exact artifact path, bytes, Contract sources, workflow, and revision. - Less unnecessary waiting: a fixed Lean/Compact implementation request can
proceed without another approval stop. An explicitly windowed Claude Code
gate may arm one bounded same-session callback; no retry, output capture,
permission bypass, model override, or effort override is added. - Parallel project iterations: an optional Project Workflow Index summarizes
up to 16 explicitly registered worktrees. Every worktree retains its own
ledger and single writer; hooks never scan or load the index. - Outcome integrity: Outcome Lock continues to require complete acceptance
coverage, approved scope deltas, baseline fidelity, and aggregate completion.
Implementation is one continuous product scope; tasks, checkpoints, small
commits, and rollback units remain safe engineering boundaries, not staged
product slices. - Lightweight by default: ordinary routing adds no extra model call, agent,
repository scan, scheduler, daemon, broad test run, telemetry, or model/effort
selection. Direct work remains direct; Lean remains brainstorm → plan. - Cross-host packaging: the same 11 skills and protocol are validated for
Codex, Claude Code, Qoder, and OpenCode.
Verification
- Release commit:
c095354a01ff7f09cb539261a44fc1efc9f7d88b. - Three independent expert reviews:
Critical 0,Important 0, work-unit
compliancepass, approved-outcome fidelitypass, code qualityapprove. - Local aggregate: 198/198 Python tests passed; all 11 skill validators and all
four host package surfaces passed. - Exact-commit CI:
Ubuntu/Python 3.9, macOS/Python 3.13, Windows/Python 3.13 (including the Hook
launcher probe), and Claude Code strict validation all passed. - Exact-tag CI:
the same four jobs passed from annotated tagv1.3.0. - Independent local-tag and GitHub-remote-tag clones both passed the 11 skill,
Codex package, Claude strict, Qoder, OpenCode, identity, and empty-ledger
doctor smoke checks.
The release does not claim authenticated GPT-5.6 Sol/Ultra, Fable 5, Opus
4.8/5, Claude dynamic-workflow orchestration, or a real Windows Claude runner
end-to-end certification. The protocol is model-neutral; the runner evidence is
deterministic fake-host control and argv coverage plus cross-platform CI.
