Agent TaskGraph Protocol v0.8.0-beta.11
Pre-release
Pre-release
What changed
- Runtime is now an explicit Owner choice. Model, effort, yolo, or a generic start approval cannot silently select native instead of HAPI.
- PROJECT.md can retain a preferred runtime and machine for recommendation order without treating that preference as launch authorization.
- New structured task manifests and scripts/prepare-task.py atomically generate Goal, ledger, context, and dispatch files.
- The pre-dispatch state gate validates reserved roles, requested runtime, Git baseline, branch, clean registered worktree, pending identity state, and STATUS visibility before spawn.
- Inbox preparation is visible, with a five-minute time-to-first-worker escalation rule.
- HAPI test fixtures no longer inherit a live HAPI_API_URL and accidentally authenticate against the real Hub.
Compatibility
Existing active batches remain pinned to the protocol version recorded in PROJECT.md. Apply beta.11 to a new batch; do not rewrite completed historical evidence.
