v0.8.0

Swarm

• Reviewer feedback now reaches the next attempt: when a work item is sent back for revision, the reviewer notes appear in the next worker prompt, so revisions converge instead of repeating the same mistake.
• Reviewers no longer burn cycles on an empty review queue, review verdicts are validated end to end (explicit artifact ids, case-insensitive approve, logged drops), and artifact submissions can no longer close another agent work item.
• Faster phase handoff: the swarm moves from planning to production as soon as the work plan exists, and always reaches final assembly before the cycle budget runs out.
• Fairer workspace merging: a conflict no longer discards the remaining agents changes, delete-versus-modify is reported as a real conflict instead of silently splicing lines, and merged files are written atomically.
• More reliable runs: the completed checkpoint is only written after final synthesis, stale state from a previous run is cleared on start, and resume restores the phase it left off in.

TUI

• First-run vault setup now shows a real passphrase field with guidance instead of an invisible input line.
• Scheduler and process supervision are hardened against pid reuse, fixing rare cases where the TUI was terminated by a stale daemon pid file.

VS Code extension

• Dark mode: the model picker and all popups now follow the selected Genesis theme instead of inheriting light colors from the host editor.
• New animated splash and onboarding mark, synced with the site.

Packages

• npm, PyPI, Homebrew, desktop and channel packages updated to 0.8.0.
