v0.5.1

Fixed

• junior update refreshes the cached update summary once the newer releases
  are adopted, so the startup notice and junior doctor readiness stop
  reporting the components that were just installed.
• junior setup records the companion skill files its installers create in the
  repository-local .git/info/exclude, matching junior init; outside a Git
  repository it stays silent.

v0.5.0

Added

• Harness detection for Claude Code, Cursor and Codex (junior doctor --harness), listing each harness's skill roots and MCP config locations.
• junior doctor reports a per-harness readiness object covering skills, MCP
  registration, managed tools and cached updates, with one junior setup fix
  command; inspectMcpRegistration reads Claude (project/user/local), Cursor
  and Codex MCP configs read-only.
• junior setup previews the ordered repair plan and confirms before applying
  it; --dry-run previews only, --yes applies non-interactively, and a
  non-TTY run refuses to change anything without --yes.
• Startup update notice: a cached 24-hour check over Junior, the managed tools
  and the companions prints one stderr line on init, doctor, status and
  validate; JUNIOR_NO_UPDATE_CHECK=1 disables it.
• Jev tool routing: the readiness call returns one probability per task trait,
  selects deterministic playbooks and attaches a toolPlan (worker directions
  plus managerSetup) to the receipt; in jev.mode: enforce a required tool
  with unmet setup returns a tool_setup clarify before the worker starts.
• Multi-tool playbooks and a deterministic capability map (playbooks/),
  with the routing evaluation set in tasks/routing-eval; junior matrix sync --source playbooks publishes the map into Crossmatrix.
• Cross-tool state mirror: junior matrix sync --source state records cpm
  status, fmeca failure modes, elicitation claim standing, scientific-process
  verdicts and jevitate journey results as idempotent Crossmatrix observations.
• Crossmatrix autopilot: junior matrix bootstrap proposes
  feature/journey/job/test -> code links with evidence and confidence, junior matrix confirm records a reviewed selection, and junior matrix autolink
  links completed cpm deliverables' results.
• Context graph and impact analysis: junior matrix graph walks the store to a
  bounded, deterministic slice with a contract context array, and --impact
  turns changed files into focused test and jevitate checks.
• junior matrix qc audits Crossmatrix links (stale, contradictory, coverage
  gaps, Jev plausibility) into an advisory review queue and never writes.
• junior matrix analyze scores items x criteria x scales with batched Jev
  cells and weighted ranking, coverage, orphans and sensitivity, with
  decision-matrix, house-of-quality, traceability and risk-matrix
  presets and optional --record.
• junior matrix adr new|lint|sync|check: MADR records with checkable rules,
  published as an adr dimension and scored for conformance; Junior's first
  four ADRs live in docs/adr/.
• junior matrix jtbd seed|evidence|draft: jevitate jobs seed elicitation
  coverage, journey results become evidence, and a ready spec becomes unapproved
  job drafts.
• junior matrix plan-from-spec: turns an elicitation spec (or --session)
  into a lint-clean draft cpm plan with deliverables per requirement and
  evidence-only edges; --suggest-edges, --codemap, --allow-unready and
  --force are supported.
• Prepare workflow and check-back: junior handoff --choose <option> --correct <id>=<text> consumes a needs_choice brief (numbered U/A items, scored
  options, recommendation), gated by checkBack: auto|always|off.
• Clarification loop: an unclear contract (or a vague-feature routing) opens an
  elicitation session and returns a needs_answers batch of ranked questions
  with the reason and any suggested answer; junior handoff <task.json> --answers <file> records assent, refutation or amendments until the
  readiness gate passes, then drafts a cpm plan (plan-sized work) or a
  prepare brief. Same gating as the check-back: an explicit workflow is never
  replaced.
• discover and investigate analysis workflows: an elicitation-backed
  requirements interview and one scientific-process experiment per handoff.
• Managed tools scientific-process and elicitation: installer, npm
  companions, agent skills, hop native state (SCIENTIFIC_PROCESS_STATE_DIR,
  ELICITATION_STATE_DIR), read classification and MCP names. Their releases
  are reported as unavailable until published.

Fixed

• A playbook activates only when its primary trait reaches 0.5, so a vague
  request no longer selects vague-feature at a 0.10 primary-trait score.

v0.4.0

Added

• junior doctor reports companion agent-skill readiness as companionSkills:
  each skill is present, missing, modified, unknown or not_installed,
  and an unready one carries a complete junior init --target ... remediation
  command. Skill readiness is reported separately and never gates ok (#39).
• The Pi guard extension (pi-guard.ts) makes every bash tool call read stdin
  from /dev/null and caps its timeout ten seconds under
  execution.toolTimeoutMs (half the budget below 20s), so a slow command fails
  only that call before Junior's watchdog; a timed-out tool is named in the
  receipt as timedOutTool (#42).
• execution.maxOutputBytes (1-32 MiB, default 8 MiB) bounds the retained
  worker output; the retained Pi event stream is compacted and oversized tool
  text is written once to tool-output/<toolCallId>.txt behind a head/tail
  marker (#41).
• execution.continuations (0-3, default 1) starts an automatic fresh-session
  continuation segment after an output-capped segment, writing
  checkpoint-<n>.md and events-<n>.jsonl (#41).
• junior validate adds non-blocking split warnings for a contract naming more
  than six distinct context paths or more than ten acceptance criteria (#41).
• The cpm tool's plan.review sees Junior's managed OpenRouter key when no
  explicit key is set, and junior tools inspect reports review-key visibility
  as cpmReview without its value (praxec/cpm-planner#72).

Changed

• A tool command that is not Junior's managed binary records the version it
  reports through --version (unknown when none) and an empty source SHA,
  instead of a built-in last-known release table that went stale with every
  upstream release.

Fixed

• Local git excludes are verified with git check-ignore; a pattern Git does
  not apply is reported in unapplied and named in an error instead of being
  recorded as added (#40).
• isolationSetup provisioning is idempotent in a resumed worktree: an
  existing link that already points at the source is satisfied instead of
  failing with EEXIST, while a link to a different target still fails (resumed
  worktree link fix).

v0.3.2

Fixed

• junior tools init no longer records stale tool provenance when no managed
  install exists: the fallback is now the current releases (fmeca 0.2.0,
  cpm-planner 0.2.2, Crossmatrix 0.3.0), and a managed install's version is only
  recorded when the tool's command is that managed binary (#36).
• FMECA vet is classified as a read, like cpm plan.review: it is an advisory
  model call that never changes state, so it is snapshotted and no longer
  invalidates manager acceptance (#35).
• tools/README.md documents the current read/command table, provenance, and
  the Crossmatrix 0.3.0 query and command request shapes (#35, #36, #37).

Published as @matthew-cochran/junior@0.3.2 (#38).

v0.3.1

Added

• junior update updates Junior itself from npm first, then re-runs as the
  new version to update every managed binary, companion and skill;
  --no-self skips it and source checkouts are never touched.
• junior doctor --check-updates reports Junior's own version.
• junior update refreshes an installed managed TRIZ without --with-triz.

Fixed

• The managed TRIZ install keeps the release's package name and version, which
  TRIZ 0.3+ needs at import time (update --with-triz failed on v0.3.0).
• npm and npm-installed companion CLIs (.cmd shims) are spawned correctly on
  Windows.

Published as @matthew-cochran/junior@0.3.1 (#34).

v0.3.0

The Crossmatrix hub: Junior ties CPM, FMECA, jevitate, tests and code
together in a committed .crossmatrix/ store (requires Crossmatrix 0.3.0).

Added

• junior matrix export and junior matrix sync: turn code, tests, jevitate
  jobs/personas/journeys, CPM deliverables and FMECA failure modes into
  Crossmatrix dimensions with content hashes; an unchanged re-sync is a no-op.
• junior matrix init: create the project's committed .crossmatrix/ store.
• The code map: junior matrix codemap init, junior matrix link (record
  the files a handoff changed against its feature), junior matrix files,
  junior matrix context (a contract context array) and
  junior matrix stale (links to re-confirm after changes).
• Crossmatrix as an npm companion with its agent skills.
• junior tools call uses the project's .crossmatrix/ store with
  Crossmatrix 0.3.0+ instead of replaying the model on every call.
• The Crossmatrix hub section in the manager skill.
• A slim README with reference documentation under docs/, and this changelog.

Published as @matthew-cochran/junior@0.3.0 (#30, #31, #32, #33).

v0.2.1

Fixes

• Hitting the worker output cap stops the worker (output_truncated) instead of running to the deadline (#26).
• junior update no longer re-downloads managed tools already at the latest release (#27).
• JUNIOR_NO_INSTALL=1 blocks every install path; tests set it so they can never touch a global install (#28).

Published as @matthew-cochran/junior@0.2.1 (#29).

v0.2.0

Highlights

• junior init installs Pi, the checksum-verified managed FMECA/CPM/Crossmatrix binaries and the npm companions (fmeca, cpm, jevitate, triz) with their agent skills; junior update and doctor --check-updates keep them current.
• New commands: auth set|remove, doctor --online, mcp register, report-issue, status --live.
• Contracts: context excerpts, conditional acceptance ({text, when} → not_applicable), checkReserveMs (checks still run after a deadline stop), isolationSetup (provision worktrees with links/copies/commands).
• Clearer Jev attention (trigger, probability, threshold, reason) and quoted-span evidence labels in analysis reports.

Fixes #6, #7, #8, #10, #11, #12, #15, #17, #18, #19, #20, #21, #22, #23, #24 (#25).
