MetallicClaw v0.4.0

MetallicClaw v0.4.0

This release makes the Telegram agent feel much less like a support script and adds the next set of local-agent primitives: personality, memory, web search, and session control.

Highlights

• Added editable SOUL.md profile personality with a sharper default voice.
• Added bounded MEMORY.md and USER.md memory tool for durable preferences and compact project facts.
• Added web_search through a configured SearXNG JSON endpoint.
• Added Telegram command menu publishing plus /new, /skill, /yolo, and /godmode.
• Added session skill state, session history clearing, and sessions clear.
• Added generated docs/COMMAND_GUIDE.md with a pre-commit drift check.
• Changed Telegram debounce default to 0; fast replies by default, batching is opt-in with --debounce-ms.

Security notes

• /godmode and /yolo do not bypass provider/model safety, deny_dangerous, or runtime rules.
• Web search blocks public plain HTTP SearXNG URLs. Loopback HTTP stays allowed for local SearXNG and tests.
• Memory docs warn against storing secrets.
