Release Specbook 0.5.0 · specbook-dev/specbook

Generated values now appear only when you write them, and the hosted viewer no longer downloads faker.

Hosted viewer and embed ship no faker. ui.specbook.dev and the dist-viewer/ folder in @specbook/ui no longer include the 422 KB faker chunk. A {{faker.…}} typed there stops the run with a clear message instead of being sent as text.
No more "Dynamic" example. Each operation has one generated Default; old dynamic.example.json files are removed when you regenerate.
Faker is always there for projects. specbook init adds @faker-js/faker, and faker from @specbook/core/faker is now typed, so a misspelt generator fails tsc. QA can type {{faker.person.firstName}} into any field in the portal.
Smaller builds. A portal ships only the faker locales listed in your config (plus en), and a browser downloads faker only when a run uses it. specbook test and specbook bundle leave it out when nothing uses it.
Generated values control. "Synthetic data" is now "Generated values" and is on while the open request or flow uses faker. specbook test --seed repeats a run.

A misspelt {{faker.…}}, or one with arguments, now stops the run and names the placeholder instead of reporting a missing variable or being sent as it is.
The command line reference lists every flag.
