 # Changelog
 
+## 0.2.46 - 2026-10-28
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Fabric Agent Adapter is pinned at `v0.56.0`** (it was `v0.55.0`): stability and Windows. working-with-fabric names
+  the repositories a Windows turn touched; the board responder recovers from a refused slot, leaves within 3 s when
+  idle and logs its notices at `warning` with a subject; the reference service can take a moved slot back; a spend
+  gate fails closed.
+
+## 0.2.45 - 2026-10-27
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Fabric Agent Adapter is pinned at `v0.55.0`** (it was `v0.54.0`): creating-fabric-agents carries what an agent
+  that answers people needs from its first release (a reference of 17 parts, each with its check), and the
+  support-agent recipe refuses a call to `answer()` from inside `on_handoff` with `ReentryError` instead of hanging.
+
 ## 0.2.44 - 2026-10-27

+A reply comes back without its citation markers, with `citations` beside it. The recipe never sends the reply: the
 service that calls it owns its channel (mail, a chat, a store review) and its response time.
 
+This recipe is the draft-and-check step of an agent that answers people, not that agent, and used alone it falls short
+of one. Every hand-off goes to `on_handoff`, by default the outbox a person reads, at the first refusal: the practices
+name that as the failing pattern (P2). An agent that repairs passes its own `on_handoff=` so a failed check reaches
+its repair step rather than a person; the recipe returns the failed checks by name in `reasons`, but takes no reason
+in and returns no refused draft yet, and it calls again under a new message id, since the stored decision answers any
+repeat of the same id. `on_handoff` runs under the agent's lock, before the decision is saved, so it queues the
+hand-off and returns: since 0.55.0 a call to `answer` from inside it, on the same thread, is refused with
+`ReentryError` (a `RecipeError`), and unless `on_handoff` catches it the first call raises it too, its draft paid and
+nothing saved or delivered. A call it hands to another thread and waits for waits for the lock forever, so it never
+waits: the repair step calls `answer` once the first call has returned. The original id stays a hand-off, which a
+repeat of it returns; the repair step sends the retry's reply and records the turn as answered in the agent's own turn
+record, which, not `decisions.jsonl` (one line per message id decided), counts turns. The retry's own hand-off reaches
+`on_handoff` again, so the repair step bounds its retries (one repair is the practices') and passes any further
+hand-off to the person's channel. A copy of `support_agent.py` made before 0.55.0 takes no `on_handoff` in
+`from_config` and hangs on such a call (`grep -c ReentryError support_agent.py` prints 0 for it; `fabric_kit.py
+status` covers the kit modules only): copy it again. The recipe also lacks three parts of such an agent: the Lookup
+(shared words, best three) is a relevance rule of its own, where the agent reads the knowledge service's per-item
+`answer` flag and puts small closed rule sets into the prompt whole; `from_config` accepts a same-vendor fallback,
+refused only per call as `model:config`; and the decision does not record which model answered, so fallback recoveries
+are not counted. The recipe hands off nothing for `policy`: the calling service routes the categories a person must
+handle (refunds, unbans, account recovery) before it calls the recipe, or a model's `HANDOFF` on them is counted as a
+false knowledge gap. Count its hand-offs by cause: a failed check is a refusal for the agent to repair, research and
+hold, and only a hold on the material counts as `inability` (a hold after an outage or at the research time cap is
+`infrastructure`); `unsupported:amount` is a money reason, never researched, and so is `unsupported:number` while the
+decision returns no draft to tell a price from another number; `no-knowledge` and `model-unsure` are `inability`;
+every `inability` opens a gap; `model:*` is `infrastructure`, and `model:ceiling` and `model:payment` are also the
+turn's `limit` outcome. The rest of the agent's parts with checks come from [agents that answer
+people](../../../creating-fabric-agents/references/agents-that-answer-people.md): the turn record, the daily
+`support.quality_daily` report, the other-vendor model checker that sees the material first (this recipe's checks are
+code only), the false-state gates, numbers and account state from tools, the live-tail re-read, the commitments ledger
+and the gap queue.
