AIWG 2026.8.5 - Observable sandbox operations and reliable plugin delivery

Release date: 2026-08-04
Channel: stable

AIWG 2026.8.5 makes sandbox activity and managed-Docker posture visible in
Cockpit, adds verifiable web-resource revalidation, and repairs the versioning
and self-containment contracts used by the complete Claude Code plugin catalog.

What changed

  • Cockpit presents coverage before activity timelines, preserves explicit scope
    and completeness evidence, and exports signed activity manifests without
    exposing restricted event content.
  • Managed-Docker instances expose a governed security posture and clear
    recreation guidance when legacy identity boundaries do not meet the secure
    default.
  • Signed web-resource metadata uses payload-bound ETag or Last-Modified
    validators. A 304 response can reuse only previously verified bytes, while
    inconsistent cache evidence triggers an unconditional verified recovery.
  • Session analytics and forensic views retain content-free operational facts,
    stable citations, and explicit authorization boundaries.
  • Reviewed line-memory promotion and marketing theme-management workflows add
    durable memory and repeatable design operations.
  • Every repository-hosted Claude plugin advances to 2026.8.5, uses a
    discoverable skill layout, and keeps its own runtime paths inside the cached
    plugin payload. The external training plugin retains its independent
    version.
  • Cockpit preserves sandbox authentication and authorization failures across
    coverage, timeline, and export routes, and rejects incomplete activity
    summaries before browser rendering.
  • Context-pack batch touches are serialized with other line-memory mutations.

Verification

The release candidate is required to pass marketplace/version lockstep,
Claude-compatible plugin layout and isolated-path regression tests, Cockpit
activity authorization and envelope tests, line-memory process-concurrency
tests, TypeScript, the production build, the full test suite, release metadata
validation, and Fortemi index validation. The signed release tag then gates
forge releases, checksums, SBOM/provenance assets, npm publication, and installer
verification.

Package matrix

All three npm packages publish in CalVer lockstep:

aiwg@2026.8.5
@aiwg/cli@2026.8.5
@aiwg/cockpit@2026.8.5

Upgrade

Full local-corpus distribution:

npm install --global aiwg@2026.8.5

Lightweight signed-web distribution:

npm install --global @aiwg/cli@2026.8.5

Refresh Cockpit through the base CLI to keep it in lockstep:

aiwg use cockpit
aiwg cockpit

Claude Code users should update the AIWG marketplace and installed plugins so
the new 2026.8.5 payloads replace older cached versions.

Rollback

Roll back all three npm packages together to 2026.8.4. That version does not
contain the Cockpit activity/posture additions, web metadata revalidation,
plugin cache-version repair, or the regression fixes described above.
