Non‑TUI Improvements In This Release

Orchestration and runtime reliability

  • Added guidance queue and delivery plumbing for agents (src/agent/guidance-queue.js, src/message-buffer.js, src/guidance-topics.js).
  • Added state snapshot capture/publishing for better cluster progress visibility (src/state-snapshot.js, src/state-snapshotter.js).
  • Improved orchestrator/sub-cluster behavior and recovery paths (src/orchestrator.js, src/sub-cluster-wrapper.js, src/agent-wrapper.js).
  • Improved attach/send-input path for running sessions (src/attach/send-input.js, src/attach/index.js).

Validation workflow hardening

  • Added staged validation templates (quick-validation, heavy-validation) and upgraded full-workflow template behavior.
  • Added template simulation/deep validation modules (src/template-validation/**) to catch trigger/consensus issues earlier.
  • Strengthened config validation and routing (src/config-validator.js, src/config-router.js, src/schemas/sub-cluster.js).

Provider and output robustness

  • Hardened output extraction and fatal/error parsing across providers (src/agent/output-extraction.js).
  • Added provider retry/backoff handling (src/agent/rate-limit-backoff.js).
  • Updated provider mappings/defaults and parsers (src/providers/openai/**, src/providers/anthropic/**, src/providers/google/**, src/providers/base-provider.js).

Git/PR automation and workflow behavior

  • Enhanced git-pusher behavior and schema handling (src/agents/git-pusher-template.js).
  • Improved issue-provider handling across GitHub/GitLab/Azure/Jira (src/issue-providers/**).
  • Improved worktree/isolation handling and compose cleanup flows (src/isolation-manager.js).

CLI and automation improvements

  • Expanded CLI behavior and command handling updates (cli/index.js).
  • Added/updated startup, settings, and repo config helpers (lib/start-cluster.js, lib/repo-settings.js, lib/settings.js).
  • Improved preflight validation paths (src/preflight.js).

CI/release and quality coverage

  • CI/release workflow updates (.github/workflows/ci.yml, .github/workflows/release.yml, .github/workflows/codeql.yml).
  • Expanded unit/integration coverage significantly across runtime/validation/provider/orchestrator paths (tests/**).
