We are excited to announce the release of HackPilot Enterprise Version 2026.09.26! This release integrates the new Evidence Workbench, cross-platform reliability hardening, reviewable AI and adapter lifecycles, and a hardened CI pipeline contributed by Abdulazeez A. Noaman (@HostX0) in Pull Request #21.
🌟 What's New in Version 2026.09.26
1. Evidence Workbench & Local Assessment Studio (workbench/)
- Local Evidence-First Assessment Studio: Self-contained local studio, reviewer interface, and web service for offline-capable, reviewable security assessments.
- Privacy-Minimizing Scanner Parsers & Adapters: Standardized adapter parsers for Semgrep, Nuclei, Trivy, and project metadata scanners that scrub raw targets, strip credentials, drop proprietary database row values, and generate minimal finding candidates.
- Bounded Access-Control Matrix: Strict matrix evaluator enforcing authorized targets and action boundaries.
- Coverage-Aware Retest Engine: Automated verification system linking remediation advice directly to historical evidence and diffs without falsifying test results.
- Tamper-Evident Evidence Bundles: Exportable review bundles signed with cryptographic digest integrity checks.
2. Reviewable Adapter Lifecycle & Execution Receipts
- Durable Adapter Approval & Planning Lifecycle: Pre-execution planning, explicit operator approval gates, and durable execution receipts.
- Cooperative Cancellation & Wall-Clock Deadlines: Cancellable network transports, shared deadlines, and interrupted run recovery with running checkpoints.
- Bounded Native Execution Registry: Closed execution registry with isolated environment runners and resource cleanup.
3. Cross-Platform Reliability & Launcher Hardening
- Multi-Platform Launchers: Native launch scripts for Linux, macOS (
workbench/start.command), and Windows (workbench/start.cmd,workbench/start.py). - Container vs Host Installer Context: Hardened
install.shsupportingHACKPILOT_INSTALL_CONTEXT(hostvscontainer) to avoid side effects during Docker builds. - Backward-Compatible Legacy Entrypoints: Retained
hackpilot.pyandhackpilot_v2.pyalongsideadvance_hackpilot.pyto preserve legacy tooling and automation workflows.
4. Hardened CI/CD & Automated Testing Matrix
- Multi-Tier CI Matrix: Added bounded Python 3.8 CI profile (
requirements-ci-py38.txt) for legacy core contracts alongside full Python 3.9-3.11 test matrices. - Fail-Closed Black Code Quality Pipeline: Uploads exact format diffs and automated candidate repair archives upon style divergence.
- Expanded Verification: 90+ core unit tests, comprehensive contract suites (
test_docker_contract.py,test_enterprise_ci_contract.py,test_requirements_compat.py), and workbench E2E tests.
5. Community & Contributor Recognition
- Special Thanks: Full credit and gratitude to Abdulazeez A. Noaman (@HostX0) for designing, implementing, and contributing Pull Request #21.
