What's New
v3.2.0 replaces ZeroClaw with the Archify explainer product; no shared changelog or migration path documented.
Breaking Changes
- The version jumps from 0.8.6 to 3.2.0 while the notes describe an unrelated product (Archify), so none of the ZeroClaw CLI, plugin, or daemon behavior is documented as preserved.
- The WebAssembly plugin host and the v0.8.6 WIT plugin contract are not mentioned at all, leaving existing channel and tool plugins with no stated compatibility.
- Gateway pairing, OIDC principals, and owner-only admin tokens from the older release are absent from the new notes, so identity and pairing integrations cannot be assumed to carry over.
- Daemon-owned live config revisions, the observer event firehose, and coordinated agent lifecycle are not referenced, so automation built on those RPC surfaces needs re-validation.
- The new authoring workflow (finalize/patch explainer) implies a different pipeline shape that existing ZeroClaw-based tooling will not match.
New Features
- One-page explainers turn a Markdown draft into a conclusion-first page composed of panels with prose, tables, steps, checklists, charts, code, and validated diagrams.
- `finalize explainer` and `patch explainer` commands provide validation, atomic delivery, and panel-level replacement by ID.
- Readers get interactive step-through diagrams with mutual text/node highlighting and a focused full Viewer.
- Citations, source cards, and follow-up questions scoped to a specific panel or selected passage.
- Four page styles (clean, editorial, product, Swiss) with light/dark themes and PNG, WebP, JPG, or PDF export.
Improvements
- Reader controls and in-page update notices were refreshed.
- Website portability was improved for published pages.
- Export rendering now respects the selected style and theme.
- Chart data can be sourced from a Mermaid fence or a CSV/JSON file beside the draft, with repository excerpts read from the pinned commit.
Bug Fixes
- Local filesystem paths no longer leak into shared pages.
- Export style and theme are preserved instead of reverting to defaults.
- Blank chart data is now treated as an error rather than silently rendered as zero.
- Workflow migration contracts were corrected.
- Timeline timezone tick rendering was fixed.
Upgrade Notes
Treat this as a product replacement rather than an upgrade: the newer notes never mention the ZeroClaw plugin host, OIDC principals, gateway pairing, or daemon-owned config, so verify whether those surfaces still exist before pinning. If you depend on v0.8.6 plugins or pairing flows, plan to rebuild or re-integrate against whatever the new release actually ships. Validate the new explainer authoring commands in a staging pipeline before switching production automation.
The Two Releases
v0.8.6
Oct 18, 2026· 6 days ago
ZeroClaw v0.8.6 is a large plugin, identity, and runtime-ownership release spanning 573 commits from 74 contributors. It ships the WebAssembly plugin host in the seven 64-bit CLI archives, adds authenticated principals with OIDC across RPC and the gateway, and moves live configuration, events, and agent lifecycle under the daemon. Security defaults are tightened, so gateway pairing, remote ZeroCode, browser automation, private-network downloads, and older plugins should be reviewed before upgrading.

Archify v3.2.0 adds conclusion-first one-page answers, called explainers, generated from Markdown with cited sources, interactive diagrams, and browser exports. It includes authoring and delivery commands, multiple visual styles, and fixes for local-path leakage, export theming, blank chart data, workflow migration contracts, and timeline timezone ticks. The release also updates reader controls, update notices, and website portability.
