v0.2.1

Released: 2026-04-19

Canonical changelog: CHANGELOG.md

Highlights

• this patch adds chaos-wave runtime recovery, memo contradiction sidecars, and A2A return dry-run adapters across the runtime layer
• federated-consumer warnings, release parity CI, and roadmap/current-direction docs are tightened around the current runtime contour
• abyss-stack remains the source-owned runtime layer, with deployed truth still landing through the Configs mirror

Full Release Notes

Summary

• this patch adds chaos-wave runtime recovery, memo contradiction sidecars,
  and A2A return dry-run adapters across the runtime layer
• federated-consumer warnings, release parity CI, and roadmap/current-direction
  docs are tightened around the current runtime contour
• abyss-stack remains the source-owned runtime layer, with deployed truth
  still landing through the Configs mirror

Added

• chaos wave 1 runtime recovery surfaces, an A2A return closeout dry-run
  adapter, and memo contradiction runtime-sidecar coverage

Changed

• federated-consumer warning posture, recall/contradiction bridge wiring,
  release parity CI safety, and CI/protection surfaces are aligned with the
  current runtime release line

Validation

• python scripts/release_check.py

Notes

• this patch extends bounded runtime recovery and advisory posture without
  claiming live deployment mutation from the source repository alone

v0.2.0

Released: 2026-04-10

Canonical changelog: CHANGELOG.md

Highlights

• this release adds diagnostic-spine contracts, source-rooted mirror canaries, federated advisory seams, winner-promotion loops, and new OVMS/chat/ToS-graph runtime lanes
• llama.cpp fallback and tuning posture are hardened while runtime docs and AGENTS guidance are aligned around parity, support boundaries, and bounded advisory ownership
• abyss-stack remains source-authored on the runtime layer, with deployed state becoming live only after sync into the Configs mirror

Summary

• llama.cpp fallback and tuning posture are hardened while runtime docs and AGENTS guidance are aligned around parity, support boundaries, and bounded advisory ownership
• abyss-stack remains source-authored on the runtime layer, with deployed state becoming live only after sync into the Configs mirror

Validation

• python scripts/release_check.py

Notes

• detailed runtime substrate, generated-surface, operator-surface, and parity-check coverage for this release remains enumerated below under Added, Changed, and Included in this release

Added

• diagnostic-spine runtime seam, diagnostic surface-catalog capsule,
  reviewed-diagnosis bridge refs, and repair-handoff companion alignment
• source-rooted mirror canary plus parity-aware deployment verification for
  the deployed Configs mirror
• federated advisory seam presets and live checks, overlay skill installs,
  runtime winner-promotion loop, and checkpoint closeout bridge install in the
  repo skill surface
• Intel OVMS text-lab lane, Qwen3/OVMS model cards, route-first ToS-graph UI,
  preview-only curation slice, and a generic runtime chat seam

Changed

• added llama.cpp runtime fallback for AVX512-less hosts and hardened
  llama.cpp env compatibility and tuning seams
• aligned runtime docs and AGENTS guidance with current support posture, via
  negativa runtime checks, and bounded advisory/runtime ownership

Included in this release

• runtime substrate updates across compose/, config-templates/, docs/,
  examples/, schemas/, scripts/, and generated/, including the switch
  to canonical llama.cpp posture, diagnostic-spine contracts, antifragility
  receipt schemas, machine-fit fallback and tuning, and federated advisory
  seams
• runtime follow-through and operator surfaces under .agents/, .github/,
  AUDIT.md, ROADMAP.md, QUESTBOOK.md, quests/, README.md,
  AGENTS.md, Spark/, and tests/, including quest-harvest installs,
  runtime closeout receipts, winner promotion, route-first ToS graph UI and
  curation overlays, OVMS text-lab lanes, and parity-safe source and deployed
  mirror checks

v0.1.0

First public baseline release of abyss-stack as the infrastructure substrate for the AoA / ToS ecosystem.

This changelog entry uses the release-prep merge date.

Summary

• first public baseline release of abyss-stack as the repository that owns runtime, deployment, storage, lifecycle, security, and infrastructure glue beneath AoA and ToS
• the public baseline now includes Fedora-first deployment doctrine, source-checkout versus deployed-runtime path rules, rootless Podman lifecycle helpers, profile and preset composition, helper-service build contexts, and bounded federation/runtime seams
• this release keeps abyss-stack on the runtime layer without absorbing source-owned meaning from AoA layers or Tree-of-Sophia

Added

• community-docs baseline established for this repository
• CHANGELOG.md, CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, SECURITY.md, and CONTRIBUTING.md
• root runtime doctrine under README.md, CHARTER.md, BOUNDARIES.md, ROADMAP.md, and the current docs/ architecture, deployment, runbook, path, preset, profile, reference-platform, machine-fit, and runtime-bench surfaces
• source-managed runtime helpers under scripts/, including layout, sync, bootstrap, lifecycle, doctor, render-truth, smoke, governed-run, host-facts, machine-fit, pilot, and federation-sync entrypoints
• public-safe config templates, helper-service contexts, schemas, and examples under config-templates/, schemas/, and examples/

Validation

• python scripts/validate_stack.py
• python scripts/validate_stack.py --parity-check
• python -m py_compile scripts/validate_stack.py scripts/aoa-host-facts scripts/aoa-machine-fit scripts/aoa-qwen-run

Notes

• this release establishes the source-authored baseline for the runtime layer; deployed runtime state still becomes live only after sync into /srv/abyss-stack/Configs
