Release Notes

2026-04-29

Updated package.json and README.md to the new tagline: "The AI control layer for GitHub Copilot — a persistent AI workflow cockpit inside VS Code with planning, review gates, and an agent crew for the heavy lifting."

Clarified that CEO must never use the terminal, run tasks, or execute code directly. Any missing tool or execution surface is a mandatory routing signal to a suitable specialist — not a reason to improvise.
Strengthened non-goals and decision rules to reinforce that CEO delegates all execution work and does not attempt terminal commands, script execution, or direct file edits.

Added optional repo-local GitHub settings in the Settings tab, with new saves and refresh resolving credentials through VS Code's built-in github or github-enterprise authentication providers instead of storing a new PAT.
Added manual Refresh GitHub Inbox support plus sync status reporting and cached inbox lanes for Issues, Pull Requests, and Security Alerts.
Added Create Todo and Create Todo + Review import paths on GitHub inbox rows.
GitHub-sourced Todo cards now keep structured source metadata so repeat imports reuse and update the existing card instead of creating duplicates.
The saved GitHub automation prompt is now reused for GitHub-sourced needs-bot-review launches and ready task drafts.
Pull-request sourced handoffs add security-first review guidance and branch preflight using the current local branch when VS Code's built-in Git extension can provide it.

Updated the shipped Prefab starter-agent path to prefer live rendering through prefab/render_ui when the renderer is available.
Raw Prefab wire-format JSON is now the fallback path for renderer-unavailable or explicitly JSON-only requests instead of the default end state.

See GitHub Integration for the user-facing setup and workflow details.
