What's New

Newer release shifts focus to security and installer reliability, contrasting with the older version's focus on OpenDesign Arena and persistence.

New Features

  • Enhanced GateGuard security for destructive PowerShell commands
  • Improved installer collision handling with user-owned files
  • Dry-run support for uninstall operations
  • Observer analysis retention for unsuccessful processing

Improvements

  • Hardened GateGuard against variable assignment concealment
  • Installer writes reject collisions while preserving ownership hashes
  • Guided setup revalidates previews to prevent false success
  • Uninstall respects ECC_DRY_RUN=1 environment variable

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed dry-run behaviors to reject invalid values instead of silently allowing
  • Fixed guided setup false success when files appear between preview and apply
  • Fixed uninstall to respect dry-run environment variable

Upgrade Notes

Uninstall operations now respect the ECC_DRY_RUN=1 environment variable to prevent accidental deletions. Guided setup revalidates previews before applying ownership filters to avoid false success states. Ensure GateGuard exemption globs are configured correctly as relative globs are now restricted to the project root.
