0.1.1 - 2026-09-07

Release Notes

Added

• drove down stops and deletes the Herdr session it targets, once the
  detach is saved, when that session is a named one (not default).

Fixed

• Herdr backend: the first declared tab of a workspace Drove creates now
  reuses the root tab Herdr's workspace.create always hands back, instead
  of opening a new tab and leaving that root tab stray (#25).
• up, plan, and status now prune local state against the live backend
  snapshot before building a plan: a recorded resource whose backend id no
  longer exists (a Herdr session stopped and restarted, which wipes its
  workspaces and id counter) is dropped and planned as a fresh create
  instead of trusted as already there, which previously left status
  reporting in_sync and up failing with workspace_not_found. status
  reports each pruned resource under a new recreate line, and its --json
  report gains a "pruned" list of the dropped identities.

0.1.0 - 2026-09-07

Release Notes

First release.

Drove compiles a checked-in Drovefile to a canonical model, compares it to
the live state of a backend, and reconciles the difference.

Added

• Core model, IR, and DSL: a Drovefile declares workspaces, tabs, panes,
  agents, and one-shot setup tasks; Drove compiles it to a canonical,
  content-digested model and diffs it against live state to plan create,
  change, and task actions.
• Herdr backend: incremental convergence, token-gated approval of new or
  changed tasks, and readiness probes (output match or port).
• Radiator hub backend, reading the hub's real reported capabilities instead
  of a hardcoded set.
• A Backend core trait plus flavor extension traits (herdr, radiator),
  so the planner only emits actions every backend can perform and each
  flavor's own verbs (tabs, splits, ratios for Herdr) live in its own
  namespace rather than a lowest-common-denominator union.
• Project-level and profile-scoped backend and target selection
  (backend(...), profile(session = ..., backend = ...)), with resolution
  order flag > explicit env > profile > Drovefile > ambient host env >
  built-in default.
• Rename without loss: a resource keeps its live pane across a was = "..."
  rename instead of being recreated; drove lint catches a stale rename or
  a task with no check.
• drove, run with no subcommand, resolves a profile (default, or the
  file's only profile), starts the target Herdr session if needed, applies
  the plan, and brings the session's first workspace to the front —
  attaching the caller's terminal to it if not already inside Herdr.
• drove ls, plan, status, render, lint, run, down, each taking
  an optional positional profile name (--profile NAME is an alias).
• v2 to v3 Drovefile migration shims, with drove render printing the v3
  form of a v2 file and its deprecation warnings.
• A safety model: Drove only touches resources recorded in its
  machine-local ownership state, never deletes a live resource on
  detachment, requires --allow-replace for a topology change that
  discards scrollback, and gates a new or changed task's check/run on
  approval.

Fixed

• Windows CI leg and working-directory digest portability.
