Herald: release notes

Each version, newest first.

0.8.14

The Herald follows Manor's Developer options: developer content only for developers.

What changed

  • With Developer options off (the switch on Manor's Settings page), the Herald's page has no "From the Developer Herald" section, and it doesn't ask the Developer Herald for its news.
  • With them off, a source that fails says so in plain words, what the Herald does next and what you can do, not the error behind it. The same goes for the notes on a round and on its summaries: the local AI, not the model by name.
  • With them off, the PC caretaker's updates available list each app's new version and its release notes, without the command that installs it; the help and the tour no longer name the tools behind them.
  • With Developer options on, everything is as before.
  • It carries the Steward's kit 2.39.0 (Manor's Developer options for every agent), which brings 2.38.0 (new title-bar scenes for other agents) and 2.37.0 (how agents' releases are published) too.

Before you update

  • Nothing: it updates itself as usual. Without Manor, developer content stays off unless the Herald's own Developer options say on.

Installing

  • Castellan installs and updates it by itself. To install it by hand, unpack the zip anywhere and run node src\cli.ts install (Node 22.18 or later). SHA256SUMS.txt lists its SHA-256 (PowerShell: Get-FileHash).

0.8.13

It carries the Steward's kit 2.36.1: the parts every agent of the manor shares.

What changed

  • The Steward's kit 2.36.1: GenieX 0.8.0 is the NPU's server on a Snapdragon.

Before you update

  • Nothing: it updates itself as usual. This kit comes after 2.36.0; 2.33.0 (Steward 0.19.4) is still to be released and doesn't depend on it.

Installing

  • Castellan installs and updates it by itself. To install it by hand, unpack the zip anywhere and run node src\cli.ts install (Node 22.18 or later). SHA256SUMS.txt lists its SHA-256 (PowerShell: Get-FileHash).

0.8.12

It carries the Steward's kit 2.35.0: the parts every agent of the manor shares.

What changed

  • The Steward's kit 2.35.0: A release of an agent Castellan sells goes to the Exchequer, and no longer to the public releases repository.

Before you update

  • Nothing: it updates itself as usual. Agents for sale stop appearing in the public releases repository once the Exchequer 0.6.0 is deployed with its migration applied. Until then, releases go there as before.

Installing

  • Castellan installs and updates it by itself. To install it by hand, unpack the zip anywhere and run node src\cli.ts install (Node 22.18 or later). SHA256SUMS.txt lists its SHA-256 (PowerShell: Get-FileHash).

0.8.11

What changed

  • The Steward's kit 2.34.0: An agent's rounds never stop silently.

Before you update

  • Nothing: it updates itself as usual. This kit comes after 2.33.0 (Steward 0.19.4); if 2.33.0 isn't released yet, release it first.

0.8.10

It carries the Steward's kit 2.32.1: the parts every agent of the manor shares.

  • The Steward's kit 2.32.1: The kit names the app the person bought: Castellan.

Before you update

  • Nothing: it updates itself as usual.

0.8.9

It carries the Steward's kit 2.32.0: the parts every agent of the manor shares.

What changed

  • The Steward's kit 2.32.0: A release goes to the agent's own repository, and to a releases repository only where one is named.

Before you update

  • Nothing: it updates itself as usual.
