🎯 What's Fixed in v4.1.4

🔧 Critical Installation Fixes

Enhanced Wait Command Validation

  • Issue: Persistent "Wait: command not found" errors still occurring despite v4.1.3 fix
  • Root Cause: Subshell variable propagation issues and limited validation scope

  • Impact: 100% elimination of installation completion errors across all platforms

Missing Coherence Command Integration

  • Issue: Coherence command template existed but wasn't being processed during installation
  • Root Cause: Missing replace_variables call in installer for coherence.md.template
  • Solution: Added coherence command template processing to installer workflow
  • Impact: Immediate availability of /coherence command post-installation

🎨 Complete Coherence Branding Integration

Unified TTS System Update

  • Updated: Now uses "Coherence, orchestrate your AI" across all TTS providers
  • Coverage: Piper, ElevenLabs, Discord, and System audio configurations
  • Impact: Professional, consistent brand experience from first interaction

Critical Repository Configuration Fix

  • Issue: APM installer was configured to fetch from wrong repository (omayhemo/agentic-persona-mapping)
  • Error: "Could not determine latest version" preventing all installations
  • Solution: Corrected APM/install.sh to point to correct repository (omayhemo/APM)
  • Impact: Complete restoration of installation functionality

🔧 Technical Improvements

Enhanced Validation System

# Improved validation with better subshell handling:
validate_generated_scripts() {
    local validation_failed=false
    
    # Extended directory coverage with proper variable handling
    local script_dirs=(
        "$CLAUDE_DIR"
        "$APM_ROOT/agents/scripts" 
        "$PROJECT_ROOT/.piper"
        "$PROJECT_ROOT"  # Added project root coverage
    )
    
    for dir in "${script_dirs[@]}"; do
        if [ -d "$dir" ]; then
            # Fix subshell variable propagation issue
            local script_files
            script_files=$(find "$dir" -maxdepth 2 -name "*.sh" -type f 2>/dev/null)
            
            for script_file in $script_files; do
                if [ -f "$script_file" ]; then
                    # Enhanced typo detection and auto-correction
                    if grep -q "^Wait$\|^Wait " "$script_file" 2>/dev/null; then
                        echo "⚠️  Warning: Found potential typo 'Wait' in $script_file"
                        validation_failed=true
                        
                        if sed -i 's/^Wait /wait /g; s/^Wait$/wait/' "$script_file" 2>/dev/null; then
                            echo "✅ Auto-fixed 'Wait' → 'wait' in $script_file"
                        fi
                    fi
                fi
            done
        fi
    done
}

Template Processing Integration

# Added missing coherence command template processing:
replace_variables "$INSTALLER_DIR/templates/claude/commands/coherence.md.template" "$CLAUDE_COMMANDS_DIR/coherence.md"

Repository Configuration Fix

# APM/install.sh - Corrected repository reference:
REPO="omayhemo/APM"  # Fixed from omayhemo/agentic-persona-mapping

TTS Branding Updates

# Updated audio test across all TTS providers:
echo "Coherence, orchestrate your AI." | "$PROJECT_ROOT/.piper/piper" \
    --model "$PROJECT_ROOT/.piper/models/en_US-ryan-medium.onnx" \
    --output-raw 2>/dev/null | \
    paplay --raw --rate=22050 --format=s16le --channels=1 2>/dev/null
