v2026.7.17
AIWG 2026.7.17 - "Portable resources and lightweight CLI"
Released: 2026-07-22
Channel: stable (npm install -g aiwg)
AIWG 2026.7.17 introduces signed web-backed resource discovery, a lightweight
CLI distribution, relocatable project artifacts, and user-global framework
bootstrap. Operators can now choose local or versioned web resources per call
without changing the agent-facing discover and show workflow.
Highlights
- Signed web-backed resources —
aiwg discoverandaiwg showaccept
--resource-source,--aiwg-version, and--offline, verify signed release
manifests and raw resources, and query the downloaded precomputed framework
index through Fortemi Core. - Lightweight
@aiwg/clidistribution — the new package contains the CLI
and supported API runtime without bundling the framework corpus. It publishes
at the same CalVer asaiwgand@aiwg/cockpit. - Relocatable
.aiwgartifacts —.aiwg-location,
AIWG_ARTIFACTS_PATH, andaiwg artifacts move --to <path>let projects
move or rename their artifact root while preserving bindings and rebuilding
indexes. - Custom project-local search paths — configuration and environment
overrides can add external addon, extension, framework, plugin, and provider
roots without moving the main project corpus. - User-global bootstrap —
aiwg use <framework> --provider <name> --global
installs framework and kernel assets into supported provider user paths and
leaves only lightweight project bootstrap files. - Installed-package API — package consumers can invoke the CLI router and
signed resource helpers through supportedaiwgexports, with packed-install
conformance coverage for legacy local and web-backed modes.
Package matrix
All three packages publish in CalVer lockstep:
aiwg@2026.7.17
@aiwg/cockpit@2026.7.17
@aiwg/cli@2026.7.17
Use the full distribution when you want the bundled corpus:
npm install --global aiwg@latestUse the lightweight CLI when resources should resolve from the signed release
host:
npm install --global @aiwg/cli@latest
aiwg discover "architecture evolution" \
--resource-source web \
--aiwg-version stableThe initial web slice supports the framework graph through the Fortemi Core
backend. Project and codebase graphs remain local because they describe the
operator's workspace.
Upgrade
npm install --global aiwg@latest
aiwg doctorExisting project-local installations and legacy local resource configuration
remain supported. Web source selection is per call and does not require moving
or redeploying an existing project corpus.
