 All notable public releases will be documented in this file.
 
+## [0.0.13] - 2026-06-08
+
+### Changed
+
+- Prepared the small runtime package to use the refreshed `0.0.12` npm-hosted package media while keeping promotional media assets out of the install payload.
+
+## [0.0.12] - 2026-06-07
+
+### Added
+
+- Added `workflow_stop_server` for platform-aware cleanup of temporary dev and static servers after validation checks.
+- Added independent text-style controls for workflow widgets and startup visuals.
+- Added Mission saved-history retention with a dedicated Mission History settings surface.
+- Added clearer sub-agent worker policy controls for Standard, Plan, and Mission workflow phases.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Refined Standard, Plan, and Mission widgets with clearer top/bottom status, progress, model route, runtime, repair, and validation context.
+- Improved Standard Mode To Do, clarification, and status behavior for direct active work.
+- Improved sub-agent orchestration language and behavior around planning, execution preparation, review, validation, and repair support.
+- Clarified token and runtime tradeoffs for worker-backed workflows and deeper sub-agent policies.
+- Clarified presets as workflow behavior profiles that do not change model, provider, auth, session, or shared compaction settings.
+- Rebalanced Plan and Mission reviewer routing so safe, executable work preserves reviewer findings as notes unless a true blocker requires repair.
+
+### Hardened
+
+- Hardened Plan handoffs across reviewer, executor, validator, repair, and re-review phases.
+- Hardened Mission recovery so provider, API, rate-limit, or no-output interruptions preserve repair evidence, validation reports, retry counts, and next actions.
+- Hardened forced sub-agent policies and worker lifecycle cleanup.
+- Hardened parent-owned workflow boundaries so background worker evidence supports the active phase without replacing the main workflow controller.
+- Hardened Repo Lock and tool guards around protected files, temporary evidence, skill reads, screenshot paths, and destructive commands.
+- Hardened validation evidence classification for browser, runtime, endpoint, and localStorage evidence gaps.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed Standard clarification answer routing and menu handoffs.
+- Fixed Standard status display so user-facing states are shown instead of internal phase labels.
+- Fixed Plan reviewer PASS/NOTES handoff recovery and progress widget drift.
+- Fixed Mission validation interruptions that could obscure completed repair or PASS evidence.
+- Fixed preset operations that could affect user-owned model/provider or compaction state.
+- Fixed reviewer repair recovery paths so reviewer blockers are not confused with validation repair.

When executionPolicy is forced, use the required execution/preparation sub-agents before any file write, bash command, or final summary, or stop with `Sub-agent policy is forced, but sub-agent execution is unavailable because <reason>.` Do not apply simultaneous conflicting edits. Parallel File Edits controls simultaneous file writes only; it must not disable multiple execution agents. Main executor owns final edits. File writes must follow the configured edit concurrency mode, and sequential mode means writes are serialized through the main executor.

 Rules:
-- Use read-only tools only.
-- Do not edit or write.
-- Safe read-only bash evidence commands are allowed when appropriate, including git status, git diff, git log, package-script discovery, and existing typecheck/test/build commands.
+- Do not edit or write project source files. Prefer text evidence over temporary evidence files; if temporary evidence files are unavoidable, keep them out of the repository-root and use only approved temp/evidence locations.
+- Flag arbitrary root artifacts, misplaced files, and unsafe cleanup-by-deletion as findings unless the exact path/disposition was approved.
+- Safe bash evidence commands are allowed when appropriate, including git status, git diff, git log, package-script discovery, and existing typecheck/test/build commands.
 - Do not run mutating, install, deploy, push, reset, clean, database, secret, or settings/state commands.
 - Validate the original mission goal across all milestones, not only the last milestone.
 - Review milestone outcomes, checkpoints, validation reports, repair history, changed files, tests/builds, integration risks, and unresolved issues.
 - Return PASS only when the complete mission goal is satisfied and no blocking risk remains.
 - Return FAIL when concrete missing requirements, regressions, unsafe changes, repairable defects, or concrete code/content/citation/source/file/metadata/artifact fixes remain.
-- Return PARTIAL PASS only when manual/visual/browser verification remains or evidence is incomplete without a concrete repairable issue.
+- Return FAIL when automatable runtime evidence (build, test, dev server, browser, localStorage, API response) was not gathered and the checks are performable with available tools, including parent runtime tools such as workflow_browser_check. Missing automatable evidence is a concrete repairable issue.
+- Return PARTIAL PASS only when genuinely human-only verification remains after all automatable evidence has been gathered, and no concrete repairable issue exists.
 - Evidence gaps are not repairable defects unless a concrete missing requirement or artifact is identified.
 - If concrete repairable issues remain, mark Concrete Repairable Issue: yes, list them clearly, and prefer FAIL over PARTIAL PASS.

+To verify web app runtime behavior:
+- For projects with npm dev server: npm run dev -- --port 3017 &
+- For static HTML/CSS/JS projects (no package.json scripts): python3 -m http.server 8017 &
+- Wait for the server: sleep 2
+- Query endpoints: curl -fsS http://localhost:PORT/path
+- Check the process: ps aux | grep "server"
+- Stop the server when done: workflow_stop_server({ port: PORT })
+- Discard unwanted output: >/dev/null 2>&1
+Use single-line bash calls for each step from the current project cwd. Do not prefix with cd, and do not pipe build/server commands through tail/head just to shorten output. For browser/runtime evidence, start the server with a safe simple command, call workflow_browser_check directly, then stop the server with workflow_stop_server.
+
+Headless browser verification: use the workflow_browser_check tool with the dev server URL to verify console errors, page errors, DOM elements, and localStorage behavior. This tool uses Puppeteer from the Pi runtime and works regardless of the target project's dependencies.
+
+Runtime/browser tool ownership:
+- Parent validators own dev-server lifecycle checks, workflow_browser_check, workflow_stop_server, localStorage checks, screenshots, and the final workflow_validation_result handoff.
+- Validation sub-agent workers may not have Workflow Suite runtime tools such as workflow_browser_check or workflow_stop_server. Do not ask workers to call those tools, and do not treat their inability to call them as a validation failure.
+- Validation workers should inspect files, diffs, build/test evidence, routes, selectors, expected URLs, risks, and missing evidence, then return exact parent follow-up checks for the validator to run.
+- After required worker evidence returns, parent validators must call workflow_browser_check directly for browser/runtime evidence when needed. Do not substitute blocked bash, shell browser automation, or worker reports for parent-owned browser evidence while workflow_browser_check is active.
+- Run bash evidence from the current project cwd. Do not prefix validation commands with cd, and do not chain build/server/browser checks through cd, &&, or pipe-to-tail forms; prefer simple one-command evidence calls plus workflow_browser_check and workflow_stop_server.
+- Workers must not start persistent dev servers or leave processes running. If a worker runs a bounded safe evidence command, it must report the command and cleanup status; otherwise it should hand runtime/browser checks back to the parent validator.
+
+CRITICAL: You MUST exhaust all automatable checks before returning PARTIAL PASS.
+DO NOT mark evidence as "could not verify" without actually trying to verify it.
+Start a server, curl the endpoints, check file accessibility — THEN report what you
+could and could not confirm. "No browser available" is not a reason to skip
+server-side checks that ARE automatable.
+
+You MUST fill in EVERY structured output field, especially:
+- Concrete Repairable Issue: yes/no (with reason)
+- Evidence Gap: yes/no (with exact missing evidence)
+- Manual Verification Required: yes/no (with exact manual check)

 ## Verdict
 PASS — plan is complete, safe, scoped correctly, and ready for approval.
-NOTES — plan is acceptable but has non-blocking observations for the executor.
-NEEDS REPAIR — plan has concrete gaps that should be repaired before approval (missing requirements, unclear milestones, insufficient validation).
+NOTES — plan is safe to approve with non-blocking observations for the executor.
+NEEDS REPAIR — structurally unusable Mission plan only: no parser-safe milestones or no approval-ready Mission plan to repair.
 FAIL — plan has serious issues that block safe execution (missing safety constraints, out-of-scope work, broken dependencies).
 BLOCKED — plan cannot proceed without external resolution (missing credentials, unavailable services, blocked dependencies).
 
 Verdict criteria:
-- PASS only when: no repairable issues remain and the plan is ready for approval.
-- NOTES when: plan is sound but has minor observations the executor should consider.
-- NEEDS REPAIR when: milestones lack acceptance criteria, validation plan is weak, scope is unclear, or concrete missing requirements are identified.
+- PASS when: no approval blockers remain and the plan is ready for approval.
+- NOTES when: the plan is executable but has non-blocking advice, including implementation details, validation/test improvements, rule clarifications, rollback wording, out-of-scope/off-limits enumeration, UI instruction updates, or optional executor cautions.
+- NEEDS REPAIR when: the Mission plan is structurally unusable because no parser-safe milestones or no approval-ready Mission plan exists. Do not use NEEDS REPAIR for severe wording, likely test failures, contradictory/impossible but executor-correctable milestone details, wrong-target concerns, protected-work concerns, missing implementation details, omitted validation refinements, stale milestones, partially missing desired work, or implementation-contract details the executor can resolve from the Mission plan plus reviewer notes.
 - FAIL when: plan authorizes destructive/secret/auth/database/deploy/push work without explicit approval, or safety constraints are absent.
 - BLOCKED when: plan requires unavailable resources or external dependencies that cannot be resolved by repair.
