Ainz 0.10.3

Ainz 0.10.3 brings the IRC-style buffer, named themes, an embeddable core, and new customization tools.

• Messages keep their nick on the same line and wrap under the text. Markdown renders headings, lists, tables, links, and code in the terminal.
• The agent roster sits on the right, with a channel topic for the selected agent's task and tool. Completed, Cancelled, and Failed states remain visible after a run ends.
• /header mascot selects dedicated artwork at an appropriate terminal size. Headers preview immediately, preserve the conversation, and discover new files without restarting.
• /themes and /theme NAME load small TOML palettes. /theme default restores the built-in colors. Artwork retains its own palette.
• Masthead Studio and Theme Designer support local drafts, undo, import/export, and self-contained installation commands.
• The Rust core can be embedded with default-features = false; CLI, Lua, and WebAssembly support are independent features. The separate termweave crate provides terminal Markdown rendering from source.
• Cancellation covers compaction, approvals, tools, and hooks. Steering is bounded and rejected drafts are preserved. Session writes use unique temporary files and atomic replacement; interrupted subagent collection retains task ownership.

Embedding hosts should review the RunOptions API and host contract. See the documentation index and remaining reliability work.

Ainz 0.9.2

Lua plugins can now expose tools directly from scripts, with bundled require modules, JSON helpers, progress reporting, and capability-checked host functions. Each call receives a fresh Lua 5.4 state with memory and instruction budgets. Plugin approval pins the source bundle before it runs.

This release also fixes eight security and stability issues:

• Workspace file access rejects dangling symlinks and uses directory handles to prevent escapes during file opens.
• Web fetching validates and pins DNS answers, checks every redirect, and rejects private and mapped addresses.
• File permission rules normalize target aliases and reject decoy arguments.
• Shell prefix allowances no longer authorize compound shell commands.
• Cancelling a process provider terminates its process group.
• Cancelled tool calls receive results so sessions remain resumable.
• Incomplete or truncated model streams fail instead of reporting success.
• Tool output and HTTP response buffers stay bounded, including streamed progress.
