Universal Governance Compiler v1.0.5

Highlights

• Makes Codex a first-class three-layer governance target.
• Codex output now includes repository guidance, project-local config/rules, and a repo-local governance skill.
• The new ugc-governance skill is generated by the existing Codex emitter and points to the canonical .universal-governance/ SOP corpus.
• Existing Antigravity, Claude Code, and Cursor outputs remain supported.

Release Assets

• Linux amd64: ugc_1.0.5_linux_amd64.tar.gz

• SHA-256 checksums: ugc_1.0.5_checksums.txt

Notes

• Source builds remain supported.
• macOS binaries are cross-compiled and were not locally runtime-tested because no macOS machine was available.
• Binaries are not signed or notarized.
• No package-manager publication, branch protection, hosted service, runtime deploy, or release automation was added.

Universal Governance Compiler v1.0.4

Highlights

• Aligns UGC's public CLI, approval packet, and generated governance language around English-first product wording.
• Approval packets now document English approval wording using the literal approval.
• The hash-bound approval model, scoped Return Gate, and no-outside-actions discipline remain unchanged.
• Retains the Cursor deny hooks introduced in v1.0.3 and the minimal public CI checks introduced in v1.0.2.

• Linux amd64: ugc_1.0.4_linux_amd64.tar.gz
• Linux arm64: ugc_1.0.4_linux_arm64.tar.gz
• macOS amd64: ugc_1.0.4_darwin_amd64.tar.gz
• macOS arm64: ugc_1.0.4_darwin_arm64.tar.gz
• Windows amd64: ugc_1.0.4_windows_amd64.zip
• SHA-256 checksums: ugc_1.0.4_checksums.txt

Notes

• Source builds remain supported.
• macOS binaries are cross-compiled and were not locally runtime-tested because no macOS machine was available.
• Binaries are not signed or notarized.
• No package-manager publication, branch protection, hosted service, runtime deploy, or release automation was added.

v1.0.3

Highlights

• Cursor emitter now generates .cursor/hooks.json and .cursor/hooks/ugc-deny.sh for hard-blocking deny enforcement aligned with Claude deny policy.
• Cursor capability labels upgraded to constrained for approval gates, stop conditions, protected surfaces, destructive action warnings, and secret read protection.
• Includes CI workflow from v1.0.2 (tests, vet, build, init/build/audit smoke).

Universal Governance Compiler v1.0.2

Universal Governance Compiler v1.0.2

This release adds minimal public GitHub Actions CI for UGC.

The new CI workflow verifies:

• go test ./...
• go vet ./...
• go build
• a fresh ugc init, ugc build, and ugc audit smoke flow

Release archives are attached for:

• Linux amd64
• Linux arm64
• macOS amd64
• macOS arm64
• Windows amd64

SHA-256 checksums are attached in ugc_1.0.2_checksums.txt.

Source build remains supported.

macOS binaries are cross-compiled and were not locally runtime-tested because no macOS machine was available. Binaries are not signed or notarized.

No CLI behavior change is intended relative to v1.0.1. README and GitHub Pages download links now point to v1.0.2.

No package-manager publication, branch protection, hosted service, runtime deploy, or release automation was added.

Universal Governance Compiler v1.0.1

Universal Governance Compiler v1.0.1 adds prebuilt GitHub Release binaries for Linux, macOS, and Windows.

Attached artifacts:

• ugc_1.0.1_linux_amd64.tar.gz
• ugc_1.0.1_linux_arm64.tar.gz
• ugc_1.0.1_darwin_amd64.tar.gz
• ugc_1.0.1_darwin_arm64.tar.gz
• ugc_1.0.1_windows_amd64.zip
• ugc_1.0.1_checksums.txt

SHA-256 checksums are provided in ugc_1.0.1_checksums.txt.

Source build remains supported:

git clone https://github.com/radustefanescu97-star/UGC-Universal-Governance-Compiler.git
cd UGC-Universal-Governance-Compiler
go build -o ugc .
./ugc --help

macOS binaries are cross-compiled and were not locally runtime-tested because no macOS machine was available. Binaries are not signed or notarized.

No code behavior changes are intended relative to v1.0.0 beyond release packaging and README install documentation.

Universal Governance Compiler v1.0.0

Universal Governance Compiler v1.0.0 is the first stable V1 release of UGC: a local CLI for teams and individuals who want one repository-level governance source for multiple AI coding agents.

UGC compiles a local .universal-governance/ corpus into deterministic rule/configuration surfaces for:

• OpenAI Codex
• Google Antigravity
• Anthropic Claude Code
• Cursor by Anysphere

This release includes:

• ugc init to bootstrap the standard governance corpus
• ugc build --dry-run to preview generated files
• ugc build to generate agent-specific governance files
• ugc audit to detect drift, missing artifacts, stale artifacts, manifest issues, and capability coverage
• ugc build --restore <PATH> for narrow restoration of exact UGC-owned generated files
• ugc packet new/hash/verify for SHA-256-bound local approval packet workflows
• ugc update --dry-run to preview embedded corpus updates

V1 focuses on local, auditable governance. It does not claim that every third-party AI tool enforces instructions identically at runtime, and it does not install git hooks, CI policies, branch protections, hosted services, or package-manager integrations.

Install from source:

git clone https://github.com/radustefanescu97-star/UGC-Universal-Governance-Compiler.git
cd UGC-Universal-Governance-Compiler
go build -o ugc .
./ugc --help
