Immutable release. Only release title and notes can be modified.

Two themes: Effective Command — running a multi-domain agent as a coherent HQ rather than a pile of folders — and a freshness pass & System-2 compute upgrade (16 August 2026).

16 August 2026 Release Update

  • Synchronized Digital Portfolio Update: Complete synchronized refresh across all 4 public surfaces (Athena-Public, winstonkoh87 GitHub profile, winstonkoh87.com personal site, sgassignmenthelp.com commercial site) and Athena-Public.wiki to 16 August 2026 state.
  • Canonical Metrics Sync: Updated .agent/config/CAPS.json and all public/internal documentation across the ecosystem (414 active protocols across 26 categories, 43 active skills, 72 workflows, 260 scripts, 4,263 memory files).
  • Proactive Innovation & Agentic Memory Hardening: Verified pre-deployment OpSec security scans, Astro static build compilation (npm run build), IndexNow discovery pipelines, and agentic memory integrity across all public surfaces.

Effective Command

  • Output-over-maintenance gate: the maintenance_ratio.py advisory becomes enforced via a commit-msg hook that blocks maintenance-class commits while the trailing-14d ratio exceeds 70% (feat/fix and session heartbeats exempt; ATHENA_GATE_OVERRIDE=1 bypass).
  • Report-up domain digests: external domain-repo state is mirrored into the hub's indexed memory, freshness-stamped, so cross-domain state is retrievable without loading each folder by hand.

Universal AgentGate

  • AgentGate.intercept_prompt() / intercept_tool() — a model-agnostic interception layer, so governance no longer depends on any one IDE's hook system.
  • StructuredRuinCheck returns (allowed, flags) rather than a bare boolean, naming which rule fired (targets_context_memory, targets_agent_config, targets_root_directory).
  • MCP tool meta_awareness_check deduplicated. Tool count is 10.

Retrieval Resilience

  • SafeCrossEncoder — ONNX fast path, CrossEncoder fallback, graceful degradation on timeout.
  • Chunk-integrity verification against local file counts.

New rule: Red Run or It Didn't Happen (AGENTS.md)

Any change claiming to fix a check, test, gate, linter or CI step must show the guard failing on the pre-fix state and passing after.
