v0.81.1
Added
- GitHub releases now include deterministic, checksummed source archives with instructions for rebuilding standalone binaries
Fixed
- Compaction and branch summarization now retry transient provider failures using the configured retry policy, with retry lifecycle events exposed to interactive, JSON, RPC, and SDK consumers
- Interactive startup no longer waits for background model catalog refresh while computing the footer provider count
- Restored the default stream fallback for extensions using the pre-0.81 agent-core API
- Kimi K3 models from Moonshot AI and Moonshot AI China now use the OpenAI thinking format and expose reasoning effort support
New Features
- Verifiable release source archives — GitHub releases now include deterministic, checksummed source archives with instructions for rebuilding standalone binaries. See Building standalone binaries from release source.
- Resilient compaction and branch summaries — Transient provider failures now follow the configured retry policy, with retry lifecycle events available to interactive, JSON, RPC, and SDK consumers. See Compaction & Branch Summarization and RPC retry events.
