What's New

Major architectural shift from batch to job accounting and renamed core interfaces

Breaking Changes

  • Migration from `batchaccounting` to `jobaccounting` system
  • Renamed `TableBatchJob` to `TableProviderJob`
  • Renamed interfaces: `JobStore`, `SweepStore`, `AggregateLogEmitter`, `UsageReporter`

New Features

  • Virtual Key Rotation Grace Period with configurable cooldown
  • Virtual MCP tables and CRUD operations
  • Persistence for provider `prompt_cache` configuration
  • Databricks key configuration with encryption support
  • Project governance dimension support in logs and filters

Improvements

  • Added `grants` package for per-request identity and access limits
  • Automatic virtual key rotation via `auto_rotation_interval`
  • Encryption for GitHub Copilot app credentials

Upgrade Notes

You must migrate the accounting system from `batchaccounting` to `jobaccounting`. Update code references for renamed interfaces like `TableProviderJob` and `JobStore`. Configure `vk_rotation_cooldown` for the new rotation grace period.
