v0.100.0

Added

• Plan authoring and land now block a task that would hand BUILD a mutation to another feature's sealed DECIDE artifact, routing that amendment back to its owning DECIDE step instead. (implementation PR #1303).
• The self-host version freeze can track a branch's current VERSION via "latest" or "branch:" instead of only a pinned semver string. (implementation PR #1058).
• The daemon dashboard now shows a NEVER-STARTED section for worktrees with no pipeline state, distinguishes retained-worktree exclusion reasons (open/closed/unknown PR state, missing PR reference), and prints a concrete remedy for every excluded row. (implementation PR #1338).
• The daemon now refuses to re-dispatch a build after a wiring-check kickback that would repeat an already-observed no-op build cycle, halting immediately instead of burning a turn, and annotates build completion log lines with the observed tree-hash movement. (implementation PR #1350).

Changed

• The rebase skill now verifies replay intent against source and upstream commits, halts on the first semantic ambiguity, and reconciles every rebased commit against that captured intent before reporting success. (implementation PR #1292).
• Claude autonomous and interactive defaults now use Opus instead of Fable while retaining Fable for escalation and availability fallback. (implementation PR #1327).

Fixed

• The wiring gate now accepts inert waiver refs wrapped in Markdown inline code, instead of failing with "inert waiver ref not found" for a file that exists. (implementation PR #1276).
• The bot-owned release PR now opens on repositories that squash- or rebase-merge; its candidate range no longer required merge commits. (implementation PR #1278).
• A self-host build no longer halts when the ship-start push fails but its draft PR is already open — the release gate resolves the retained PR from the feature branch, and still halts fail-closed when no open PR exists. (implementation PR #1290).
• The remediation planner no longer falsely halts for a human architecture decision when a gap is conforming implementation, test, or documentation drift that preserves already-approved architecture — it now routes that work straight to build, and the daemon halts with a clear reason instead of silently dispatching a taskless build route. (implementation PR #1283).
• Build repair now re-verifies every non-skipped BUILD member after a kickback instead of trusting a stale on-disk verdict, so a passing member the gate check reads as unsatisfied no longer blocks the run in a terminal-less park. (implementation PR #1291).
• A SHIP step that runs before finish now reads a presentable implementation PR instead of a reused needs-remediation halt placeholder, so a feature that halted earlier no longer stalls its pre-finish ship gates. (implementation PR #1304).
• FINISH now converges deterministically through an engine-owned publication coordinator instead of spending minutes retrying non-deterministic provider judgment. (implementation PR #1295).
• The SHIP draft PR now opens with the real PR body template; a placeholder-body finish refusal re-dispatches finish for a body rewrite instead of re-running the build; /remediate gains a publication disposition that never amends the plan; and the rebase is no longer skipped on textual mergeability when the base has moved in code or was resolved from a degraded local fallback. (implementation PR #1316).
• The daemon no longer silently discards an out-of-process edit to conduct-state.json when it writes state next; conflicting field writes are now detected and surfaced instead of one side winning silently. (implementation PR #1305).
• Restored the engine build after a semantic merge conflict left two undefined writeState calls on the finish publication-defect path, which halted every newly dispatched feature at setup. (implementation PR #1320).
• FINISH no longer halts a feature that legitimately skipped a SHIP step; a skipped step now counts as resolved evidence rather than missing evidence. (implementation PR #1322).
• FINISH now records the publication outcome instead of exhausting its retry budget — the coordinator was handing finish-record a fail-closed no-op instead of the real gh/git runners. (implementation PR #1323).
• FINISH now publishes the rebased feature branch with a lease-protected push instead of halting on a rejected plain push, and halts immediately — with an explanation — on a publication reason no retry could ever satisfy, rather than spending the whole retry budget first. (implementation PR #1326).
• The daemon no longer halts a build when a branch has simply fallen behind a protected artifact it never touched, and halt reasons for protected-artifact violations now name the specific cause (uncommitted edit, feature-authored change, or undeterminable provenance) with a recovery step. (implementation PR #1321).
• bin/migrate now correctly and safely applies every pending migration when a consumer project jumps multiple releases at once, instead of only the latest. (implementation PR #1325).
• The build step no longer reports itself complete or routes an exhausted build through commit-movement while the worktree has uncommitted paths — the halt now names the dirty paths so they can be committed or discarded first. (implementation PR #1312).
• The wiring reachability gate no longer flags test-only exported helpers as unwired production surface. (implementation PR #1334).
• Merged specs whose plan uses an inline-code, linked, or annotated **Stories:** reference now resolve and dispatch instead of being silently dropped; conduct-ts daemon status lists blocked specs with reason and remedy; and a ## Migration section that ends a PR body no longer parses as malformed release metadata. (implementation PR #1337).
• The /stories skill now requires machine-parseable story IDs, preserving per-story validation, plan coverage, and coherence checks. (implementation PR #1341).
• FINISH now re-enters immediately after a verified publication transition instead of spending step retry budget or escalation, bounded to 12 transitions per FINISH entry with a dedicated needs-human halt if publication still hasn't converged. (implementation PR #1345).
• The live daemon E2E build step now dispatches a real, credentialed agent and the engine halts deterministically with a clear diagnostic when a step's slash command is unresolved by the provider's skill catalog, instead of the step silently reporting an artifactless success. (implementation PR #1319).
