+- Bumped package version for the Atomic 0.8.26-alpha.9 prerelease.
+
+## [0.8.26-alpha.8] - 2026-06-07
+
+### Changed
+
+- Updated workflow-stage chat so `/compact` is the no-argument compaction command and `/context-compact` is no longer handled locally.
+
+## [0.8.26-alpha.7] - 2026-06-07
+
+### Changed
+
+- Refined bundled workflow prompts to keep natural instructions inside meaningful XML sections while removing redundant wrapper noise.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed the builtin `goal` and `ralph` workflows to fork looped worker/orchestrator-stage sessions from their matching prior iteration, preserving accumulated context while keeping reviewer stages independent ([#1275](https://github.com/bastani-inc/atomic/issues/1275)).
+- Fixed workflow completion gates to rely on structured decision fields instead of manual text/regex heuristics in `goal` and `open-claude-design`.
+
+## [0.8.26-alpha.6] - 2026-06-06
+
+### Changed
+
+- Bumped package version for the Atomic 0.8.26-alpha.6 prerelease.
+
+## [0.8.26-alpha.5] - 2026-06-06
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed the workflow global tool-event hook ignoring unscoped parent-session prompts instead of attributing them to running stages, preventing false `awaiting_input` / "needs attention" states from unrelated `ask_user_question` calls ([#1261](https://github.com/bastani-inc/atomic/issues/1261)).
+
+## [0.8.26-alpha.4] - 2026-06-05
+
+### Changed
+
+- Upgraded builtin workflow fallback model tiers so degraded runs land on stronger models: bumped `github-copilot/claude-opus-4.8` fallbacks from `:medium` to `:xhigh` in `deep-research-codebase` and `ralph`, replaced `claude-sonnet-4-8`/`4.8` fallbacks with `claude-opus-4-8`/`4.8` in the `goal` and `ralph` runner configs, and raised `claude-sonnet-4-6`/`4.6` fallbacks from `:medium` to `:high` in `open-claude-design` ([#1259](https://github.com/bastani-inc/atomic/issues/1259)).
+
+## [0.8.26-alpha.3] - 2026-06-05
+
+### Changed
+
+- Changed the builtin `ralph` workflow to include the workflow current working directory in every stage prompt so planner, implementation, simplification, review, and PR handoff stages keep repository work anchored to the workflow checkout.
+- Changed the builtin `ralph` workflow to skip pull-request creation by default unless `create_pr=true`, omit `pr_report` when disabled, and keep provider-aware PR/MR/review creation instructions in the final stage ([#1255](https://github.com/bastani-inc/atomic/issues/1255)).
+
+## [0.8.26-alpha.2] - 2026-06-05
+
+### Changed
+
+- Updated the `research-codebase` skill to capture a `breaking_changes_allowed` compatibility posture before research fanout, carry it through sub-agent prompts, and record it in research documents so downstream specs and workflows do not preserve legacy APIs by default when breaking changes are allowed ([#1225](https://github.com/bastani-inc/atomic/issues/1225)).
+
+### Fixed

+- Fixed stage-local workflow HIL `input` and `editor` prompts losing draft text across Ctrl+D detach/reattach; drafts are kept live-only in memory and cleared when the prompt or run/stage exits ([#1179](https://github.com/bastani-inc/atomic/issues/1179)).
+- Fixed workflow worktree Git commands to strip ambient repository-local Git environment variables before inspecting or creating targeted worktrees.
+- Suppressed intermediate model fallback failure warnings from successful workflow stages while preserving final failures and raw per-attempt diagnostics ([#1226](https://github.com/bastani-inc/atomic/issues/1226)).

-Plan → orchestrate → simplify → review → PR-handoff workflow: write an RFC-style technical design document under `specs/`, delegate implementation through sub-agents, simplify recent changes, run parallel reviewers, iterate until approval or the loop limit, then prepare a pull-request report. Reviewers inspect repository infrastructure directly as needed; Ralph no longer runs separate `infra-*` discovery stages.
+Plan → orchestrate → simplify → review workflow with optional final-stage PR handoff: write an RFC-style technical design document under `specs/`, delegate implementation through sub-agents, simplify recent changes, run parallel reviewers, and iterate until approval or the loop limit. Ralph skips PR creation by default; prompt text alone does not opt in. Pass `create_pr=true` to authorize only the final `pull-request` stage to inspect provider credentials and attempt provider-appropriate PR/MR/review creation (for example GitHub `gh`, Azure Repos `az repos pr create`, or Sapling/Phabricator tooling). Ralph's own PR-creation instructions live in that final stage. Reviewers inspect repository infrastructure directly as needed; Ralph no longer runs separate `infra-*` discovery stages.
