0.6.7

Release Notes

Coordination-reliability release: fixes two ways an agent could silently miss messages, and hardens
the inbox and the watch against the setups that cause it.

• Inbox: a per-message read-set replaces the single high-water mark. The inbox tracked reads as
  one HWM id, which couldn't represent holes — opening the newest message marked ALL older mail read,
  and a non-ULID id could poison the ordering and blind the inbox forever. Now:
  • show <id> marks only that message; ack <id> dismisses one; ack (no id) catches up; inbox
    LISTS and never auto-clears the batch; --peek is a compact triage list.
  • poll/watch deliver but no longer mark direct mail read (delivery ≠ read) — a request persists
    until you show/ack it.
  • Non-ULID ids can't enter the read state (the poisoning bug, fixed by construction); the legacy
    single-HWM state migrates automatically. Compaction is pure GC and never advances the read floor,
    so a late-arriving older-id message (a deferred push) is no longer swept read.
• A reply is no longer silently addressed to no one. --reply-to pointing at your OWN thread
  post now continues the thread to that post's recipients (it used to resolve to no audience and wake
  nobody). And any reply/request that still ends up addressed to no one now warns ("addressed to NO
  ONE — reaches no inbox and wakes no peer").
• The watch resists the "backgrounded/redirected watch dies and I miss everything" trap. The
  /confer-watch skill now forbids launching it under background Bash / & / redirect (it gets
  reaped and dies silently); confer watch warns at startup if its output is going to /dev/null or
  a file; and append/poll surface a dead watch ("no live watcher — you are NOT being woken") if
  you armed one and it isn't running.
• Groundwork for consistent diagnostics: a confer: ⚠ (safety) vs confer: · (advisory) convention
  so an agent can reliably distinguish real problems from tuning hints.
