-Version `7.13.7` is the current packaged-runtime line. Patch release over v7.13.6 — Brain adds an authenticated official protocol-card client (`nexo_card_catalog`, `nexo_card_get`, `nexo_card_match`) so agents can ask the NEXO Desktop backend for the right task protocol at runtime. The protocol corpus stays private on the server; this open-source package ships only the client, tool map, and agent guidance.
+Version `7.13.8` is the current packaged-runtime line. Patch release over v7.13.7 — Brain now rejects Python <3.10 during Desktop-managed fresh installs, honors the Python interpreter prepared by Desktop, and fails clearly before dependency resolution if an unsupported Apple Python 3.9 reaches the installer.

+Previously in `7.13.7`: patch release — Brain adds an authenticated official protocol-card client (`nexo_card_catalog`, `nexo_card_get`, `nexo_card_match`) so agents can ask the NEXO Desktop backend for the right task protocol at runtime. The protocol corpus stays private on the server; this open-source package ships only the client, tool map, and agent guidance.
 
 Previously in `7.13.6`: patch release — Codex hook sync now renders the managed `PreToolUse` shell/exec_command guard with native Windows `cmd.exe` syntax while preserving the existing POSIX command on macOS/Linux. Result: coordinated Desktop bundles can ship the fixed Brain without changing the Mac/Windows installation contract.
