[Unreleased]

[0.9.0] - 2026-06-23

Added

• Architectural Conventions Standard — a per-project, repo-canonical architecture map that gates where code may live. Beyond the make-style checks (syntax, types, tests), each project can carry a .roboco/conventions.yml declaring which definition kinds belong in which modules, a toggleable rule set, custom regex rules, and waivers — so an agent can no longer land a Pydantic model inside a router or a lint suppression (a misplaced helper — any top-level function — warns rather than blocks). A tree-sitter validator CLI (Python + TypeScript) classifies every changed definition and emits findings; a block-level finding refuses a developer's i_am_done and the in-path PR gate's pr_pass with the offending file:line and a fix hint, and findings surface in QA's review evidence. The auto-derived defaults exclude test and documentation trees, count an explicit db.commit() in a route as legitimate (not a fat-route violation), and exempt a small allowlist of structurally-unavoidable framework suppressions (ruff TC001–TC003, pydantic prop-decorator). The committed file and repo scan are read from a dedicated project-level read clone the service ensures on demand — so the standard resolves even for a project created before it existed, with no manual workspace configuration. The file is auto-scaffolded on first clone, editable from a per-project Conventions tab in the panel, and a false positive is cleared by a waiver committed in the branch and reviewed in the PR. Gated by ROBOCO_CONVENTIONS_ENABLED (default off) and fully inert when off.
• Agent runtime toolchain matching — agents build each target project under the Python that project actually requires. The agent image bakes one interpreter, but the projects RoboCo builds don't all share it, so a self-gate could pass against the wrong runtime. The workspace now resolves each target's Python from its requires-python / .python-version, provisions the clone with uv sync --extra dev --python <version> (fetching the interpreter on demand), and records a .git/.roboco-toolchain marker. A guard refuses a developer's i_am_done, QA's pass_review, and the PR gate's pr_pass when the suite cannot be collected under the provisioned interpreter, so "verifying by reading source" can't masquerade as a passing gate. Gated by ROBOCO_TOOLCHAIN_MATCH_ENABLED (default off).
• Provider overload circuit-break — a persistent model-API overload parks the provider instead of crash-retrying into it. A sustained 529/500/503 (the SDK already retries transient ones) now trips the same park-and-probe break as a rate limit: the spawn gate queues further work for that provider and a background loop revives it when the overload lifts, instead of respawning the agent straight back into the failure and burning tokens. Gated by ROBOCO_OVERLOAD_BREAK_ENABLED (default on).
• Structured content standard with obligated note sections. Every agent-authored handoff (developer, QA, documenter, PR-reviewer, auditor, PM resumption) is now a validated structured model persisted as the source of truth, with the legacy text column derived from it through a single chokepoint. An anti-soup guard rejects filler and all-token-noise free-text across the flow and content verbs, structured PR-review findings render a generated GitHub comment, and each role's note section is obligated at its lifecycle transition the way journals already were.
• User-facing documentation site. A MkDocs Material site (source under docs/) is now built and deployed to GitHub Pages, publishing the organizational blueprint, role descriptions, task lifecycle, and how-to guides at the project's github.io site; the agent-facing RAG corpus under docs/rag/ stays excluded from the published site. Documenter output is also committed into the project repository (not only the RAG knowledge store) so it ships through the open PR.

Changed

• RoboCo adopts its own architectural standard. The repo now ships a canonical .roboco/conventions.yml, and the inline request/response models that lived in the system and *_live route modules were relocated to roboco/api/schemas/ so the codebase passes its own placement gate (no_models_in_routes / modular_cohesion are now clean and enforced at block).
• RoboCo's own requires-python floor is raised to >=3.13. The codebase imports tomllib (3.11+) and runs on 3.13; the previous >=3.10 floor made the toolchain resolver provision the self-hosted build at 3.10, where the suite cannot even be collected. Agent gate containers now also receive the test-database connection, so an agent's make quality runs the real, DB-backed suite instead of a coverage-collapsing unit-only subset.

Fixed

• Documentation now actually lands in the project repo. A documenter's output reached a host-mounted, RAG-indexed knowledge store and (more recently) was committed onto the task branch — but in the documenter's own workspace clone, and nothing ever pushed that commit, so the PM merged the already-open PR without the docs and the deliverable vanished on merge. The documenter's i_documented now pushes the task branch before handing off (mirroring the developer's pre-QA push), so the doc commit rides the open PR into the repository; a push failure holds the task in awaiting_documentation for a retry instead of silently dropping the docs.
• The conventions standard now resolves for projects created before it existed. It previously read the committed .roboco/conventions.yml and the repo scan from project.workspace_path — a field only a manual API call ever set — so an older project (or one whose workspace was cleared) showed an empty "missing" map no matter what was pushed. The service now ensures a dedicated, default-branch read clone on demand and reads from it, persisting the resolved path + HEAD (the backfill). The panel tab, the spawn-time ambient block, and the per-task constraints all resolve the committed standard with no manual setup.
• The conventions ambient prompt block no longer truncates mid-line. It now lists only modules that actually constrain a kind, and when the list would exceed its budget it trims at a line boundary with a +N more pointer instead of cutting a module in half.
• The conventions read clone now stays current on a private repo. Its refresh reused the orchestrator's token-less best-effort fetch, but the clone's remote URL is credential-stripped — so on a private repo the refresh fetch failed silently and the clone stayed frozen at clone-time, never seeing commits merged afterwards (the panel showed "auto-derived defaults" even after the standard was merged to the default branch). The refresh now performs a token-authenticated fetch + hard-reset, mirroring the clone.
• Self-heal fix tasks dispatch autonomously instead of being stranded. A self-heal task was opened confirmed_by_human=false and held out of dispatch until an "Approve & Start" — but that button only renders for board-reviewed Intake tasks, never for a self-heal task (team=main_pm, no board review), so there was no way to start it and it sat in pending forever. Self-heal now opens the fix task confirmed + assigned to the Main PM, so the dispatcher picks it up immediately. The fix still ships through the normal gates (dev → QA → PR review → the CEO's merge); the loop never starts, merges, or deploys.
• Self-heal no longer reads the wrong branch and fails silently. The CI-signal fetch filtered runs by project.default_branch or "main" — the only "main" fallback in the codebase (everywhere else falls back to "master") — so a project whose default branch is master (like RoboCo) with an unset default_branch matched zero runs and the signal silently went dark: no fix task, no notification. The fallback now matches the rest of the codebase, and an armed self-heal that reads no CI signal (no/expired token, wrong branch, or a GitHub error) now logs a loud warning instead of an invisible no-op.
• The toolchain gate no longer passes silently on an unverifiable workspace. A broken interpreter still blocks; an unknown status — the smoke could not confirm the suite is collectable — now emits a warning when the gate proceeds, instead of slipping through unseen.
• The crypto tests are hermetic. The Fernet round-trip tests supply their own key instead of depending on ROBOCO_ENCRYPTION_KEY in the environment, so they pass in any gate container without the production secret being injected.
• ollama-init is best-effort and gates startup on the models being present, so a slow or unreachable model registry can no longer down a fully-cached deployment.
• A PM can recover its own coordination task from needs_revision, and lifecycle-transition notes are kept off the human-facing quick_context / dev_notes columns.
• Panel: a copyable task-id chip with a stable, non-shifting task header, clickable Branch / PR links with a branch-copy button, and clearer agent status badges.
• Panel: the per-project Conventions editor lays out in a responsive two-column grid (Module boundaries | Rules, then Waivers | Custom rules) with Recent violations full-width, inside a wider modal on large viewports — instead of one long single column. Each row's two cards share an equal height, and the Module-boundaries list scrolls internally so it matches the Rules card instead of running long. It collapses to a single column on mobile and is capped so it stays sane up to a 27" display.

[0.8.0] - 2026-06-20

Added

• In-path PR-review gate — every assembled PR is reviewed before the PM merges. A new awaiting_pr_review status sits between the work and the PM merge: the cell PM's submit_up opens the cell→root PR and the Main PM's submit_root opens the root→master PR, and each enters awaiting_pr_review, where a reviewer pr_passes it on to PM review or pr_fails it back for revision — the merge-level reject the PM previously lacked (motivated by a front-end/back-end seam bug that slipped straight through to master). Three new team-scoped cell PR-reviewers (backend, frontend, UX/UI) join the existing main reviewer, taking the company to 25 agents, each with its own first-class image and spawn manifest; leaf developer tasks and branchless coordination roots skip the gate. Ships migration 040 (the awaiting_pr_review enum value) plus the panel surfacing: a legible PR-review status badge, a dedicated "PR Review" kanban tab, and a PR-review column on the management board.
• Panel test gate. The Next.js panel gains a baseline vitest suite over its lib and stores, a pnpm test step enforced in the CI panel job, and a make panel-gate target, so panel changes are quality-gated the way the Python side already is.

Changed

• get_team_metrics reuses the shared ACTIVE_STATUSES constant instead of re-listing the active task statuses inline, keeping the definition in one place.

Fixed

• The self-healing CI signal is now deterministic. The regression watch defaulted to the latest completed run across all of the repo's workflows, so on a multi-workflow repo an unrelated green run — or a green run on an older commit — could mask a red CI run and the loop fired only intermittently. The signal is now scoped to the ci.yml workflow by default, pulls a window of recent completed runs and resolves the conclusion against the branch's current HEAD (a green re-run supersedes the failure; a stale green run can't hide it), and retries transient GitHub errors instead of reading one network blip as all-green.
• Self-heal fix tasks are assigned to the Main PM agent, not just the main_pm team. A team-only task fell to slow unassigned-team routing after the CEO approved it; it is now assigned to the Main PM agent up front so the orchestrator dispatches it straight away once approved. The confirmed-by-human hold that keeps the task inert until CEO approval is unchanged.

Security

• bash-guard denies git verbs hidden in command substitutions — a $(...)- or backtick-wrapped git command could previously slip past the guard.
• Transcript retention matches the encoded workspaces root at a path boundary, so a sibling directory sharing a name prefix is no longer mistaken for the workspaces root during pruning.
• The v1 role guard binds to a verified agent token before trusting a role claim, so the role a request asserts is checked against its signed token rather than taken at face value.
• pydantic-settings upgraded to 2.14.2 to pull in the fix for GHSA-4xgf-cpjx-pc3j.

[0.7.0] - 2026-06-19

Added

• Grok agents on xAI's official grok CLI, on a SuperGrok subscription. A new roboco/llm/providers/ seam (an AgentProvider lifecycle ABC + a ProviderRegistry keyed by ModelProvider) lets the orchestrator drive agent backends other than Claude Code, and the first is Grok — running xAI's official grok CLI authenticated by a SuperGrok subscription rather than a metered API key, so a Grok workforce can't stall mid-task on out-of-credits. It reaches parity with the Claude path by construction: the same MCP gateway + tool-manifest wiring, per-role tool removal and git-operation deny rules, a prompt-injection guard on the task prompt, headless tool auto-approval, and per-agent token/cost capture from the grok session store. It covers both one-shot delivery roles and the interactive Intake (Prompter) and Secretary chats (per-turn grok -p with session resume, streamed turn-by-turn). The change is purely additive — only GROK routes through the registry; Anthropic / Ollama Cloud / self-hosted spawns are untouched — and ships migration 038 (the grok enum) + 039 (the seeded provider row), first-class roboco-agent-grok / -prompter / -secretary images wired into all three compose files and the release workflow, and a Settings provider card.
• SuperGrok token auto-refresh. The grok access token has a fixed ~6h server-set TTL and the CLI cannot refresh it headlessly — on an expired token it hangs forever at an interactive login prompt — so the orchestrator now mints a fresh token from the offline-access refresh token (xAI's OIDC refresh_token grant) before expiry and rewrites the shared auth.json in place, keeping every Grok agent's credential live with no recurring manual grok login. As a backstop the agent entrypoint refuses to start (exit 78) on a missing or expired token instead of hanging.
• Self-healing CI loop (default-off). RoboCo can now watch its own repository's CI and, on a detected regression, open a fix task that is held out of dispatch until the CEO approves it — then dispatch it through the normal delivery flow, so the company repairs its own breakages. It is dormant by default and armed from two Feature-Flags panel toggles; the CI signal is scoped to a single named workflow, and task origination is bounded by rolling and per-cycle caps so it can't flood the backlog.
• Company Scorecard. A company scorecard on the panel's Business Goals tab.

Fixed

• The PR-reviewer is no longer wedge-killed before it can post a review. pr_review_claim now seeds the claim heartbeat like every other claim path; without it a Grok reviewer was treated as a silent (NULL-heartbeat) wedged container and killed before it could call post_pr_review, churning the task back to pending in a respawn loop.
• Grok one-shot runs are observable, and their usage is captured. The entrypoint streams agent activity to the container log live (--output-format streaming-json) instead of buffering it to a file until the run ends, and per-agent token/cost is read from the grok session store's actual cumulative-total field (it was silently reading $0).
• Path-injection hardening of the Grok usage directory. The agent id is validated and reduced to a single safe path component before it is used to build the per-agent usage path, on both the write/mount and finalize-read sides.

[0.6.0] - 2026-06-17

Added

• Inbound PR review — the org reviews, and can take over, pull requests it didn't open. A new read-only pr_reviewer role (a 22nd agent, its own first-class image and spawn manifest, migration 037) discovers inbound PRs, reviews the diff adversarially, and posts a single complete change-request as a real GitHub review on the PR itself — no agent-to-agent chatter. It covers external / fork PRs, gated by a configurable author allowlist, and — behind a second flag — internal org-repo PRs opened outside the agent task-flow (the org's own in-flight integration PRs are skipped, since a live task already owns their branch and they pass QA + PM review). Re-review is driven by the PR's head commit (an unchanged PR is skipped, new commits open a fresh review), and polling is repo-aware so a monorepo is no longer reviewed several times over. External-PR review is enabled by default in the shipped compose (with human-confirm on); internal-PR review is off by default. Both are flippable from the panel.
• CEO decision queue + supersede for reviewed PRs. Completed reviews surface in a PR-review queue in the panel — in-flight reviews are shown too, linking to the PR, so it never goes dark. From there the CEO can dismiss a review, or supersede the PR: the system cuts a roboco-owned branch off the contributor's commits and opens a Main-PM coordination task to finish and harden the work to our standards on that branch, open our own PR, and — once that replacement actually merges — close and link the contributor's PR. We never push to a contributor's fork.
• Feature-flags panel. A Settings → Feature Flags card toggles env-gated subsystems (external / internal PR review, web research, the strategy engine, pitch provisioning, RAG auto-update, transcript pruning) from the panel instead of hand-editing environment variables. A toggle persists in the existing settings store and takes effect on the next backend restart; an unset flag falls back to its environment / config default, and secrets (API keys, tokens) are never surfaced to the client.
• Required-cells decomposition gate. When a coordination task names the cells that must deliver it, the Main PM can no longer go idle having silently dropped one — i_am_idle is rejected until every named cell has a subtask, and the Main-PM prompt now insists on honoring explicitly-named cells rather than quietly dropping them. Inert until the marker is set, so existing flows are unaffected.

Changed

• Run from pre-built registry images. A standalone registry compose runs the full stack — including every per-agent image, now extended to the Secretary and the PR-reviewer — from published images rather than a local build. Both deploy paths, the registry knobs, and measured idle / under-load resource usage are documented.
• Documentation, for humans and agents. The how-to guide is now a structured, multi-chapter walkthrough under docs/how-to/ with a new business-workflow chapter (charter → Cockpit → Secretary, and the research / strategy / PR-review toggles); the published reference docs (README, usage, deployment, CLAUDE) were refreshed against the current code, with a CI guard that keeps documentation prose single-line. Agents also get richer in-context guidance: new RAG role docs for the Prompter, Secretary, and PR-reviewer, the 0.4.0 company layer (goals / research / strategy / provisioning) documented for them, and a refreshed guardrails surface.

Fixed

• The PR-reviewer no longer respawns in a loop. Without a spawn manifest the reviewer had no flow verbs, so it could never claim its review and was respawned over and over (burning tokens); it now ships a role-scoped manifest and reliably claims its work. The supersede close-on-land path was also hardened — the contributor PR is retired only once our replacement PR has actually merged, not merely when the umbrella task completed.
• A CEO-rejected coordination root no longer deadlocks. A product-linked coordination task the CEO sends back to needs-revision is re-dispatched to its owning PM (and the readiness gate now accepts a PM on a coordination root in that state), instead of sitting unowned forever because the developer dispatcher skipped it.
• Panel UI standardization + usability pass. A panel-wide pass plus targeted fixes: the Settings grid layout, the Journals and Kanban scroll regions, the agent-list item, the Projects table, kanban cards whose text overflowed, the PR-review queue's empty state, and the Secretary chat composer buttons.

Internal

• DB-backed and httpx-mocked test coverage for the inbound-PR read and lifecycle paths (ingest / dedup / classify / claim / complete / supersede); a cyclomatic-complexity refactor of the git PR-creation and lifecycle-validation code to clear the xenon gate; and the cell-PM / main-PM role docs corrected to the real delegate signature and cross-linked to each other.

[0.5.0] - 2026-06-16

Added

• Acceptance-criteria & decomposition guardrails. Every task's acceptance criteria now carry stable per-criterion ids, and each decomposed subtask records which parent criteria it is responsible for (covers_parent_criteria). Two gates build on that linkage: a PM can no longer go idle leaving a parent criterion with no subtask responsible for it (the decomposition floor), and a parent can no longer complete / submit up / escalate to the CEO unless every one of its criteria traces to a child that passed QA on it (the roll-up gate). PMs see live coverage in their briefings (parent_ac_coverage, unclaimed_parent_acs) after each delegate. Safe-by-construction: every gate stays inert until a PM starts declaring coverage, so existing decompositions are never blocked. (Migration 036.)
• Per-dev sequenced code queues. A cell PM now delegates each developer its full queue of code subtasks up front instead of one task at a time. Both cell developers build in parallel, and each works its own queue one task at a time, in order — enforced by a per-lane dispatch barrier, with leaf PRs still merged in sequence into the shared cell branch. The old "two code subtasks per parent" ceiling is removed; the 12-subtask hard cap and a same-title duplicate guard remain.
• Unified Business page. The Company Goals, Secretary, and Pitches pages are consolidated into one tabbed Business page (Goals / Secretary / Pitches), modeled on the Knowledge Base page with deep-linkable ?tab= URLs. A single sidebar entry replaces four.

Changed

• Company Goals, Secretary, and Pitches brought to the panel's standards. Skeleton loading and offline/error states, structured fields instead of raw JSON dumps, required-note confirmation dialogs for pitch and directive decisions, and markdown rendering in the Secretary chat.

Removed

• The standalone Cockpit page. Its data duplicated the Dashboard and Metrics; its one unique element — the strategy-engine "needs your attention" signals — was relocated to the Dashboard, served by a new lightweight GET /api/cockpit/signals endpoint. The /cockpit, /company-goals, /secretary, and /pitches panel routes are all retired (404); the Goals, Secretary, and Pitches views now live under /business?tab=….

Fixed

• Agent MCP/SDK servers no longer stall on spawn. They launch with uv run --no-sync, so a workspace clone whose lockfile has drifted from the baked image no longer triggers a multi-minute dependency re-sync that left the gateway tools stuck "pending" and the developer respawning in a loop.
• open_pr no longer fails on a missing base branch. create_pr auto-creates and pushes the PR's base branch off the default branch when it is not yet on the remote, instead of returning a GitHub 422.
• Admin status overrides restore task ownership. Forcing a blocked task back to pending / in_progress now restores its pre-block assignee, so an escalated code task no longer re-enters the pool still owned by a PM and is dispatched to that PM as if it were a developer.
• A developer can idle past its own queued work. With per-dev queues, a dev whose current leaf has moved to QA now idles cleanly while its later queue items wait their turn (the orchestrator respawns it when the lane clears), instead of looping on the idle guard or claiming the next leaf out of order.
• 26 verified panel UI bugs across the dashboard, kanban, task detail, and API layer: consistent priority labels and badge sizing, dark-mode coverage, kanban drag-and-drop that prompts for the required audit note, auto-scroll in the message and mentor-chat views, corrected WebSocket reconnect counting, PATCH (not PUT) for partial task updates, working "Activate Task" and "Start Revision" actions for backlog and needs-revision tasks (no more dead-end menus), the previously-dead "New / Generate Report" buttons, a duplicate agent id, a "0h ago" timestamp, and more.

Internal

• Verb-table generation no longer emits tables for the driver-based roles (prompter, secretary), whose real tools live in their SDK drivers rather than the gateway verb surface; and the _briefing_for typed stub was aligned with its implementation so the composed choreographer type-checks under full mypy.

[0.4.0] - 2026-06-15

Added

• Business Goals — the company charter. A single CEO-owned charter (north star, prioritized objectives, constraints, operating policy) injected compactly into every agent's briefing so all work is goal-aware. GET /api/company-goals (any agent) / PUT (CEO-only), with a panel editor.
• Web research for the Board and PMs. Pluggable web_search / web_fetch exposed through a roboco-search MCP server backed by /api/research/*, with Tavily / Brave / Exa adapters and a graceful no-op when no provider is configured. The provider key stays server-side — agent containers never make the external request themselves — and a per-agent daily quota (Redis, fail-open) bounds cost.
• Pitch → approve → provision. The Board proposes a product (a "pitch"); on CEO approval the system provisions a GitHub repo per target cell, registers a Project for each (and a Product when multi-cell), and seeds one Main-PM delivery task — reusing the existing Product / coordination-task machinery. Default-off: with no provisioning token configured, approval is refused and nothing is created.
• Autonomous strategy engine (dormant). An optional second engine that watches the company against its standing goals and surfaces drift, idle, and long-stranded blocked work to the CEO (notify-only — it never spends, builds, or auto-approves). Off by default; the delivery lifecycle is unchanged.
• The Secretary — the CEO's chief-of-staff. A live conversational agent (its own role, distinct from the Prompter) the CEO chats with in the panel. It acts only under the CEO's command: it reads company state and relays dictated messages directly, but high-impact actions — editing the charter, starting / cancelling / overriding tasks, approving a pitch, announcements — are queued and run only after the CEO's explicit confirmation (the gate list). Its authority is HMAC-scoped to the secretary role and routed through the existing enforcement, never a parallel permission model.
• The Cockpit. A read-only /cockpit view answering "is the business winning, what's happening, what needs me" — the charter, delivery counts, 30-day spend vs the budget cap, pending pitches, and the strategy engine's signals. Honestly stamped basis: proxy (a proxy until real launches).

All of these are additive and opt-in or default-off — an unconfigured deployment behaves exactly as before.

[0.3.0] - 2026-06-15

Added

• In-house RAG engine. Replaced the piragi/torch retrieval stack with an in-house pgvector engine (asyncpg), then added hybrid retrieval — pgvector cosine fused with Postgres full-text ranking — retiring HyDE, plus an embed-once / concurrent-search pass that cut multi-index query latency.
• Self-hosted LLM provider with dynamic model discovery, so agents can run against a local or self-hosted model endpoint.
• Quality gates at the source. Developers run a fast quality gate at i_am_done and the full fast gate (including complexity) at their desk; QA requires a per-acceptance-criterion verdict before passing; cells run two developers in parallel with split-before-claim sizing.
• Board redraft loop — the Board can send a drafted task back to intake for an in-context re-draft before it starts.
• Transcript retention — a background sweep prunes old agent transcripts, with a panel-tunable retention window.
• tests/ type-gated under mypy — the whole test suite now type-checks in CI.

Fixed

• PR-divergence respawn-loop meltdown. Capped the PM respawn loop-gate, added CEO god-mode status override, a PR-conflict auto-resolver (rebase → close-superseded / re-merge / escalate), and sequence-ordered sibling merge; the dispatcher can now claim an ownerless awaiting_pm_review task without transitioning it.
• Git robustness. Fall back to a permitted merge method when the repo refuses the requested one, and retarget a PR's base to the default branch when the resolved base is missing on the remote.
• RAG outage. Migrated the live chunks_* tables to the in-house schema (offline-renderable migration), closed engine audit gaps, decoded jsonb metadata returned as a string by asyncpg, and kept the embedding model resident to stop ingest timeouts.
• Panel. Fixed task lifecycle (updates, merge, reassignment, copy), responsive grids + mobile overflow, the status dropdown duplicating the current status, the orchestrator-status reachability signal, and surfaced the CEO "Approve & Start" gate so it can't be missed.
• Usage attribution. Agent transcripts are attributed by an orchestrator-assigned session id, fixing zeroed token/cost capture for review-role agents.
• Composed the prompter role layer for the intake agent; aligned auditor channel permissions; made the app route-registration test robust to FastAPI 0.137; cleared an xenon complexity failure and fixable test warnings.

Security

• Documented that WebSocket authentication is REST-only and /ws/system is unauthenticated.

[0.2.0] - 2026-06-11

Added

• Provider rate-limit handling. End-to-end backpressure for LLM-provider 429s: a Redis-backed RateLimitStateTracker, a spawn gate that queues (never drops) work while a provider is rate-limited, agent parking via i_am_blocked(reason="rate_limited"), and a background probe-and-resume loop that auto-revives parked agents when the limit lifts — escalating to the CEO after repeated failed probes. Surfaced live in the panel via a rate-limit banner.
• Token usage & cost analytics. Per-agent-session token capture read from the Claude Code transcript (/usage/sync), persisted to spawn-session rows and daily rollups, with provider-aware pricing (Anthropic models priced; local/Ollama models intentionally $0). Visible on the usage dashboard.
• /ws/system operator WebSocket stream with a websocket_bridge that forwards system events from the event bus to panel clients in real time — the rate-limit lifecycle and live token/cost usage (USAGE_UPDATE / USAGE_SNAPSHOT), so the dashboard's "Token Usage & Cost" panel updates over the socket and falls back to HTTP polling when it drops.

Fixed

• Agent workspaces now install the project's dev extra (uv sync --extra dev) so spawned agents have the full make quality toolchain (ruff/mypy/xenon) and can gate their own work — closing the gap that let lint/type/complexity debt merge unchecked.
• Token-usage capture: the dashboard previously recorded zeros because nothing populated the per-session counters.
• Panel rate-limit endpoint shape (/api/system/rate-limits returns the { entries: [...] } envelope the dashboard expects) and the doubled /ws/ws/system WebSocket path.
• Control-panel logo and all /public assets returning 500 — the panel image copied them without chowning to the non-root runtime user.
• Provider-aware pricing (Opus corrected to $5/$25 per 1M; non-Anthropic models no longer warn or mis-price).

[0.1.0] - 2026-06-09

Added

• Initial public release of RoboCo — an open-source AI agent "company": a virtual organization of 20 AI agents and 1 human CEO that plans, builds, reviews, documents, and ships software.
• Organizational hierarchy: on-demand Intake, Board (Product Owner, Head of Marketing, Auditor), Main PM, and Backend / Frontend / UX-UI cells.
• Task Assistant (the intake Prompter): a live, codebase-aware chat that interviews the CEO and drafts a well-formed, board-ready task — objective, per-cell breakdown, and acceptance criteria — then launches it into the lifecycle (Board review, or straight to the Main PM).
• Agent gateway (roboco-flow, roboco-do) backed by the server-side Choreographer; intent-verb tool surface per role.
• Task lifecycle state machine with role-based transitions and git workflow (PR-before-QA, CEO approval for major work).
• A2A protocol, journals, channels/notifications, kanban, and RAG (piragi + pgvector) knowledge base.
• Next.js control panel (panel/) behind a single nginx entry point.
• Multi-agent workspace management with per-project encrypted git tokens.
