v2026.8.1
AIWG 2026.8.1 - Persistent memory and governed fleet operations
Released: 2026-08-02
Channel: stable
AIWG 2026.8.1 introduces a complete persistent-memory cycle, expands governed
sandbox work from one target to durable fleets, and adds authenticated access
to paid resource channels. It also makes Codex deployment safer and more
predictable across project workspaces.
Compound memory
The new compound-memory addon combines line-memory and llm-wiki without
forking either storage model:
aiwg use compound-memory --provider codex
aiwg compound-memory ingest notes.md
aiwg compound-memory context "current project decisions"
aiwg compound-memory reviewRaw inputs remain immutable. Knowledge and short facts require reviewed
promotion, context packs enforce hard budgets and carry source citations, and
generated outputs remain derived evidence until accepted. Canonical project
context uses exact-preview confirmation, idempotent receipts, lifecycle
metadata, conflict visibility, and provider-neutral storage.
Review and maintenance expose stale facts, contradictions, orphaned wiki pages,
unlinked outputs, and due canonical context before mutation. A deterministic
three-session fixture verifies continuity, retrieval quality, latency,
provenance, restart safety, and portable activation without rewriting existing
line-memory or wiki data.
Governed sandbox fleets
The fleet workload contract and mission conductor extend Cockpit's sandbox
controls to multiple targets. Stable parent and child identities, admission
checks, retries, restart reconciliation, and durable cross-product evidence make
fleet progress observable without hiding partial failures.
The conformance suite exercises a three-target recovery path and fails closed
on malformed or unavailable inventory. Cockpit now projects parent/child
mission state while preserving the daemon health contract.
Paid resource access
aiwg auth login, status, and logout manage paid-resource account access
using protected platform storage with a permission-restricted file fallback.
Authorization is scoped to the configured HTTPS API origin and access material
never participates in URLs, cache keys, lockfiles, or routine diagnostics.
Signed manifests, digest checks, bounded downloads, and offline cache behavior
remain unchanged for authenticated channels.
Codex and reliability improvements
aiwg use ... --provider codexpreserves native kernel skills across addon
sweeps and writes Codex UI metadata underagents/openai.yaml.- Setup guidance uses
$aiwg-regenerateand tells operators to reopen Codex at
the target project root. - Generated
.codex/and.agents/trees are added to.gitignore; existing
tracked files stay tracked and dry-run remains non-mutating. - Development launchers load notifier and logging modules from the active
checkout, and stale cache entries from another installed version are ignored. - The lightweight CLI can package external standalone plugins and install valid
wrappers either into the current project or globally for the user. Each mode
refreshes its matching artifact and Fortemi indices.
Package matrix
All three packages publish in CalVer lockstep:
aiwg@2026.8.1
@aiwg/cli@2026.8.1
@aiwg/cockpit@2026.8.1
Upgrade
Follow the installation guide and select
2026.8.1 for the full local-corpus package or lightweight signed-web CLI.
Cockpit remains installable and refreshable through the base CLI.
Rollback
Roll back all three packages together to 2026.8.0. Existing memory stores and
fleet evidence remain on disk; disabling the new addon or conductor does not
delete retained data.
