What's New
Introduces GitHub workflow packs and Forge plugins while restricting environment variables in `.archon/.env`.
Breaking Changes
- Restricted environment variables (ARCHON_HOME, HOME, etc.) can no longer be set in `.archon/.env`.
- Config validation now fails when assistant settings contain invalid keys or values.
- Dependency logic change where `none_failed_min_one_success` now blocks skipped dependencies.
- Syntax change from `thinking:` to `effort:` for reasoning depth.
- Behavior change where `abandon` stops a run and `cancel` discards it.
New Features
- GitHub workflow pack installation and management.
- Forge plugins for PR checks and management.
- Event-triggered workflows via GitHub webhooks and schedules.
- Provider SDK updates for Claude, Codex, and Pi.
- Concurrency limits configuration for providers.
Improvements
- GitHub integration support via Forge plugins.
- Workflow logs now support the `--follow` option.
- New `archon ai capacity release` command.
- Plugin installation now supports GitHub owner/repo for packs.
Upgrade Notes
Move restricted environment variables like `ARCHON_HOME` from `.archon/.env` to your shell environment. Validate your `.archon/config.yaml` for invalid assistant settings and update the `thinking:` syntax to `effort:`. Be aware that dependency logic and workflow stop behaviors have changed.
