v1.8.0

Features

• Checkpoint and resume (#294 by @mvanhorn, #314 by @JackChen-me). A long run can now survive a crash or restart. Persist progress to any MemoryStore with checkpoint: true on runTeam / runTasks / runFromPlan, then resume with orchestrator.restore(...). On resume, runTeam re-runs coordinator synthesis so you still get a final answer, and checkpointing into the team's own shared-memory store no longer re-serializes the whole store per task.
• Consensus verification reaches runTeam (#301 by @nuthalapativarun). The per-task judge loop from 1.7.0 now applies to coordinator-generated tasks. Pass the judges with RunTeamOptions.verifyJudges, and the coordinator opts a task in with verify: true or a partial config.
• Native reasoning round-trip on Bedrock (#302 by @nuthalapativarun). Extended-thinking blocks round-trip through Bedrock's signature protocol with full fidelity, moving echoesReasoning from never to own-issued.

Fixes

• Dashboard: the run details panel is back to a right-hand sidebar on desktop instead of stacking under the canvas (#308 by @JackChen-me).

Onboarding and examples

• npm create oma-app scaffolds a runnable multi-agent demo in one command (#305, #306 by @JackChen-me).
• The full-app examples run end to end on a single DeepSeek key (#311 by @JackChen-me).
• New consensus pattern example (#297 by @nuthalapativarun).
