v0.2.0 - 2026-06-11
This release candidate turns the repository from a protocol-heavy kernel into
a more executable governance surface.
Highlights:
- Governed-run attestation bundles with replayable evidence, caveats, formal
verification records, action attestations, human-work receipts, outcome
links, work items, leases, and accountability cases. - Kernel service routes for runs, operating units, work items, learning events,
governance-change proposals, outcome links, routine reviews, resource
allocation, and residual decision rights. - Governance-change proposals now require structural evidence sufficiency, can
be exposed as resource envelopes, and can be proposed/approved through the
service boundary. - Runtime adapter proof paths for native runs and LangGraph-style projection,
plus adapter conformance fixtures and package entry points. - Distribution hardening for starter-firm installs, overlay preview, authority
diffs, governed install proposals, package signing, lockfiles, rollback, and
clean-container smoke. - Action-impact and offline policy-promotion tooling, including fixtures that
reject locally positive policies when externality or review-burden guardrails
fail. - Formal-verification provider payload support with trust policy checks and
governed-run bundle integration. - Public examples and smoke scripts for adoption, failure benchmarks, decision
log replay, field-pilot action impact, formal-provider bundles, A2H command
conformance, and multi-actor authority.

v0.1.0 - Initial release
Initial public release of the reusable cognitive-firm governance kernel.
cognitive-firm 0.1.0
First release of cognitive-firm — a governance kernel for organizations that coordinate persistent human and AI-agent roles. The filesystem + git is the system of record; a small kernel of invariants you never edit, with your firm's policy in config.
What's in 0.1.0
- Kernel — roles as offices (mandate, authority boundary, escalation, budget), gates, attested decisions, an accountability ledger, H2A/A2H/A2A coordination.
- Distribution —
cognitive-firm-distro: install a governed organization into a directory (it becomes its own git repo, verified to boot), transactional and reversible. Overlays, remote SHA-pinned packages, distro inheritance, Ed25519 package signing. - Userland —
cognitive-firm-userland: the operator/member-human terminal surface (attention queue, work inbox, vocabulary, gate resolution, governed-install review). - Governed-install human loop — an overlay's authority-diff becomes a governance-change proposal the operator approves or declines.
Install
pip install cognitive-firm
cognitive-firm-distro install starter-firm --into ./my-firmSee docs/getting-started.md.
Status
Alpha. 643 tests; two independent adversarial reviews; the wheel builds and installs clean with all three CLIs verified. It has not yet run an outside organization through a full quarter — if you try it and it breaks, that's the data we want.
