AIWG 2026.8.4 - Governed missions and complete plugin delivery

Release date: 2026-08-03
Channel: stable

AIWG 2026.8.4 makes the complete Claude Code plugin catalog independently
installable and strengthens the governance, recovery, and audit contracts used
by durable multi-agent missions.

What changed

  • The Claude Code marketplace now publishes all 40 packaged frameworks and
    addons. Cached plugins retain their complete runtime-relative dependency
    trees, so independently installed bundles remain self-contained.
  • aiwg storage import-corpus now previews and ingests local research text
    through provider-neutral storage, while authenticated Fortemi HTTP/SSE
    connections resolve credentials from environment references without storing
    their values.
  • Shared-host mission dispatch uses an explicit admission contract for
    resource, isolation, and policy requirements, with stable evidence for both
    admitted and denied workloads.
  • Operator approvals, denials, overrides, and expirations share a canonical
    audit representation across HITL drivers and downstream consumers.
  • Mission operators can pause, resume, cancel, retry, and recover durable work
    after conductor restarts. Cockpit projects those controls together with live
    mission, approval, capability, and audit views.
  • Research corpus snapshots and queries preserve curated Fortemi retrieval
    evidence across package boundaries.
  • Claude Code trace hooks now receive the required start and stop
    subcommands, and refresh repairs previously generated no-argument entries.
  • Release mirroring verifies the commit behind signed annotated tags instead
    of comparing tag object IDs directly.

Verification

The release candidate is required to pass version lockstep, TypeScript,
unit/integration tests, the production build, stable-channel UAT, and the
configured Gitea CI workflows. Post-tag verification checks both forge release
surfaces, checksums, package publication, and the installer fetched from the
published GitHub release.

Package matrix

All three packages publish in CalVer lockstep:

aiwg@2026.8.4
@aiwg/cli@2026.8.4
@aiwg/cockpit@2026.8.4

Upgrade

Full local-corpus distribution:

npm install --global aiwg@2026.8.4

Lightweight signed-web distribution:

npm install --global @aiwg/cli@2026.8.4

Install or refresh Cockpit through the base CLI to keep its version in
lockstep:

aiwg use cockpit
aiwg cockpit

Rollback

Roll back all three packages together to 2026.8.3. That version does not
contain the complete plugin marketplace, durable mission governance additions,
Fortemi retrieval preservation, or trace-hook registration fix described
above.
