Release v0.35.0 · qualitymd/quality.md

v0.35.0 - 2026-07-15

Automatic evaluator discovery now probes and reports both Codex and Claude
candidates even when the first is ready. Dry-run and run receipts carry each
candidate's structured verified, assumed, or unchecked authentication
basis; when multiple runtimes are usable, the selection reason names the
deterministic ordering decision and every usable runtime not selected.
Claude readiness now uses the documented non-interactive authentication
status probe. A verified logged-out runtime is skipped, while an unavailable
probe remains an explicit authentication assumption; credential values are
never reported.

Provider-named evaluator requests that could mean either the current harness
or a same-provider SDK subprocess now prompt for that transport choice. When
default precedence selects in-session harness judgment, the explanation
names the fresh independent SDK alternative and its one-run and durable
configuration paths.
Skill metadata advances to 0.35.0 and requires the matching
qualitymd >=0.35.0 <0.36.0 CLI line for intent-faithful evaluator selection
and receipt interpretation.

Automatic evaluator receipts add authenticationBasis to every candidate
and now report every built-in candidate, including usable runtimes not
selected by deterministic ordering. Consumers of JSON receipts should accept
the expanded candidate array and additive field; no persisted evaluation
artifact migration is required.
