Summary
AI summaryMid-flight model switching and Claude Fable premium tier added with cost‑honesty contract enforcement.
Full changelog
Added
- Mid-flight model switching: change the model a live run uses from the
dashboard (GET/POST /api/session/model + a model select in session
controls). The switch applies at the next iteration boundary (each
iteration spawns a fresh provider invocation) and to the current run only:
a leftover override is cleared at fresh-run start. Server and runner share
one normalization rule; invalid values are ignored with a warning. - Claude Fable as a premium tier at its published $10/$50 per MTok (exactly
2x Opus 4.8), in the model catalog, all pricing tables, and the Bun
mirrors. LOKI_SESSION_MODEL=fable genuinely runs fable;
LOKI_FABLE_ARCHITECT=1 routes only the first (architecture) iteration to
fable and the estimate discloses it. Routing scope is evidence-based per
Anthropic's model documentation; security review deliberately stays on
Opus (fable refuses cyber content, and a refusal would break the council). - The cost-honesty contract, enforced and tested: for every model lever
this release ships (session pin to fable, mid-flight override, architect
pass) and every LOKI_MAX_TIER path, the loki plan quote, the dashboard's
reported effective model, and the actual dispatched model agree, with the
clamp logging one honest line. (A pre-existing stock-path estimator label
gap on the default session pin is disclosed in the dashboard SCOPE NOTE
and tracked as a follow-up.) All three
clamp readers resolve through one canonical provider-config rule, locked
by a 224-cell parity matrix test against the real provider script,
including miscased and padded cap spellings. - CLI consolidation Phase A: loki help is ~20 grouped workflow entries
(Build, Session, Verify/trust, Observe, Report, Knowledge, Modernize,
Config) with a collapsed alias footer and loki help aliases. Fourteen
merged commands forward as aliases: byte-identical stdout and exit codes,
one deprecation pointer on stderr only, suppressed for --json/-q/--quiet
and positional machine formats, no side effects in clean directories.
New report and trust noun dispatchers (trust-metrics -> trust detail). - LOKI_MCP_AUTO_BOOTSTRAP=1: written-consent cold launch for MCP clients
(the env var in a client config is consent); bootstrap progress goes to
stderr only so stdout stays pure JSON-RPC; LOKI_NO_INSTALL_OFFER=1 always
wins. Docker images now install mcp/requirements.txt so clean-room
introspection finds the SDK. - mcp/lsp_proxy.py loads the real MCP SDK via a shared loader and serves
its 7 LSP tools (it previously degraded to a silent no-op under modern
SDK layouts); degradation is now loud.
Fixed
- 15 findings from a 4-dimension adversarial hunt (30 agents, per-finding
adversarial verification) plus 3 council rounds, all pre-release. The
notable ones: documented fable levers that quoted a model the runner
never dispatched; a mid-flight override that bypassed LOKI_MAX_TIER; an
override file that silently pinned all future runs; clamp resolution that
disagreed across quote/dashboard/runner on stock installs (including
miscased cap values reachable from settings.json); loki mcp --yes
documented but unparsed and leaked into server argv; a run-alias
telemetry side effect violating the no-side-effect alias contract; ANSI
codes in piped help output.
Tests
- model-override 53/53 (incl. the 224-cell clamp parity matrix and
cross-route agreement transcripts), session-model endpoint 20/20,
alias-forwarding 112/112 on both routes, mcp-launch 15/15, cli 26/26 on
both routes, plan 25/25, lsp-proxy loader pytest, full pytest 1015+
passed. All wired into scripts/local-ci.sh.
