+## What's New in v3.9.62

+v3.9.62 integrates four model-neutral reliability and capability contracts:
+
+- standalone `marrow_status` uses the bounded compact API contract and can return a fresh, owner-only last-known status projection without treating it as a live gate or authorization;
+- ordinary runtime responses expose typed `runtime_authorization` backed by the authoritative gate receipt and omit `decision_id` unless the server actually created a decision;
+- `spool-status` and `drain-spool` report the active credential namespace separately from isolated legacy debt, and a clear active namespace exits successfully without replaying, merging, editing, or deleting old-key files;
+- initialize, prompt, setup, and tool responses qualify coverage by `host_capability`: MCP tools are on demand, while native hooks, an owned SDK process, a governed runner, or a custom event adapter cover only the scope proved by observed Marrow receipts.
+
+The default surface remains six tools and the prompt remains named `marrow-always-on`. Host and model labels are display-only and never change auth, tenant, plan, policy, proof, schema, or API behavior.

 - a plan-gated handoff is reported as unavailable for the current plan, not as an API or authentication outage;
 - the release canary runs with the customer's default client deadlines instead of silently overriding them.
 
-MCP-only hosts, including Grok today, receive Marrow's control instructions but cannot expose native always-on lifecycle hooks unless the host implements them. Marrow reports that capability boundary explicitly instead of claiming hook coverage it cannot observe.
+MCP-only hosts receive the same model-neutral control instructions and six-tool default surface, but MCP transport alone is on demand. A host or model label never changes that coverage contract.

 ## Passive Use
 
-`npx -y --package=@getmarrow/mcp@latest marrow-mcp setup` installs supported prompt, tool-result, and session-stop hooks so the agent can receive before-action context, record meaningful tool outcomes, and keep unfinished closure visible without the owner repeatedly prompting it to use Marrow.

+### Capability and coverage contract
+
+| Integration mode | Coverage Marrow can claim |
+| --- | --- |
+| MCP tools-only | On demand; covers only explicit MCP tool calls |
+| Verified native hooks | Passive only for the lifecycle stages backed by observed hook receipts |
+| `createPassiveRuntime().install()` | Only the owned Node process, and only while that runtime is installed and running |
+| Governed runner | Only the command launched through the wrapper |
+| Custom host | Requires a bounded event adapter; covers only the lifecycle events whose receipts Marrow observes |
+
+This contract is model-neutral. A model name, host header, config file, installed hook entry, or successful MCP handshake does not certify passive coverage. Only observed Marrow receipts do. An unknown MCP host therefore gets the generic `mcp-client` identity and the same on-demand tools, schemas, and API semantics as a named host.
 
-The hooks send compact classifications and lifecycle receipts. They do not need raw prompts, completions, command output, tool output, or credentials. A completed tool or session does not automatically become a successful business outcome; explicit success/failure closure is required.

-Installed hooks handle supported lifecycle capture automatically:
-- UserPromptSubmit requests relevant policy, warnings, lessons, and a decision brief before risky work.
-- PostToolUse records compact tool success or failure receipts.
-- Stop keeps unfinished outcomes visible instead of silently treating session exit as success.
+When verified by observed receipts, native hooks can cover these bounded lifecycle stages:
+- UserPromptSubmit can request relevant policy, warnings, lessons, and a decision brief before risky work.
+- PostToolUse can record compact tool success or failure receipts.
+- Stop can keep unfinished outcomes visible instead of silently treating session exit as success.
 
-Hooks never make a blocked action safe. Before a consequential action, respect the returned allow, warn, review_required, or block decision and its required proof. Call marrow_agent_runtime explicitly when the passive hook cannot cover the action.
+Hooks never make a blocked action safe. Before a consequential action, respect the returned allow, warn, review_required, or block decision and its required proof. Call marrow_agent_runtime explicitly when verified passive coverage cannot cover the action.
 
 When runtime/status returns a client_update notice, tell the operator and use its exact update and verification commands only when local change policy permits. Never silently change packages or configuration.
