Clarity Agent v0.1.4
Release v0.1.4
馃幆 What Changed
You can see what Clarity is doing while it works, #135
Clarity now opens an execution log side pane by default. It keeps startup and early backend events, mirrors web server output, shows request and WebSocket activity, and logs each LLM turn's generation lifecycle with provider, model, auth mode, tool count, first streamed text, token usage, completion, and failures. Credential values are redacted.
Review packets are easier to create from MCP, #136
generate_packet is now a public MCP tool. Markdown packets are returned directly, and binary packet formats like DOCX report generation status as resources. The MCP docs and tests now match the 9-tool surface.
Coding agents get clearer Clarity process guidance, #141
Embedded guidance now tells agents to use MCP as the authoritative process interface when available: call run_clarity, follow its inline guidance, and avoid repo spelunking or local CLI setup just to find process instructions. Packet status responses no longer send MCP users back into processes/.
Provider setup is less confusing, #133, #129
.env.sample now lists every supported provider, including Gemini and GitHub Copilot. GitHub provider setup text now points users to copilot auth login first and labels gh auth login as the fallback.
馃敡 Bug Fixes
Missing local dependencies produce actionable setup errors, #128
When a required executable is missing, web chat now surfaces a non-retryable setup error with a remediation hint instead of a retryable unknown WebSocket failure.
馃Ч Maintenance
Security bumps: python-multipart (#112), js-yaml (#114), undici (#131), pydantic-settings (#134)
The pydantic-settings bump includes the upstream GHSA-4xgf-cpjx-pc3j fix for nested secrets symlink handling.
Release prep: #143 bumped Python, Tauri, Cargo, lockfiles, and CHANGELOG to v0.1.4.
Release assets: Windows and macOS desktop installers were built by Azure DevOps OneBranch Official pipeline run 20260710.1, with signing and notarization handled by the Microsoft release pipeline.
Thank you, Clarity Agent community!
