Patch release: six bug fixes across Windows install/detection, SDD, OpenCode, and self-update.

🐛 Bug Fixes

Windows

  • The install script now updates the version correctly. install.ps1 persists the install dir to the user PATH, sets UTF-8 console encoding (no more garbled icons like Ô£ù), and the verify step no longer re-runs the upgrade flow. (#201#711)
  • Engram & GGA no longer show "not installed" after a fresh install. Detection now falls back to known install locations when the running process PATH is stale, and invokes the GGA PowerShell shim correctly via powershell -File. (#177#712)

SDD

  • No more duplicate sub-agents. The orchestrator now deduplicates sub-agent launches across all agent variants, preventing "file modified since last read" conflicts and wasted tokens. (#194#710)
  • sdd-onboard is now assignable on every agent. It was missing from most per-agent model-assignment lists — you can now pick a model for it in OpenCode, Claude, Kimi, and the rest. (#699#716)

OpenCode

  • Agent variant (effort) is preserved during background delegation. Delegated subagents keep their configured variant instead of silently dropping it. (#606#717)

Self-update

  • Cleaner TUI startup. Auto-upgrade no longer fires on TUI entry, so its output can't surface unexpectedly on exit when re-exec fails — the TUI's own Upgrade tools check still covers updates. (#696#706)

What's new in v1.33.0

10 PRs landed since v1.32.0, focused on multi-model SDD workflows, security hardening, and operator visibility. Contributions from @danielgap (4 PRs!) plus maintainer work.

Multi-model SDD (the headline)

  • Judgment-Day with configurable per-phase models. The JD agents (jd-judge-a, jd-judge-b, jd-fix-agent) now have their own model assignment slot in the TUI, separate from the rest of the SDD pipeline. You can wire JD to cheaper/faster models when running dual review, while keeping the main phases on Opus. Three PRs landed the chain end-to-end: foundation (#475), agent prompt files for Claude+Kiro (#476), TUI picker integration (#477). Thanks @danielgap.

  • Sync now reports which files changed. gentle-ai sync previously printed only an aggregate file count. The output now lists each file with its action (created / updated / deleted), so users can audit what actually moved before trusting the run. (#498 — thanks @danielgap)

New CLI commands & flags

  • gentle-ai doctor — a read-only ecosystem diagnostics subcommand. Checks tool binaries (PATH resolution + shadow detection for engram/gga/claude/opencode/gentle-ai), state.json validity, Engram MCP reachability, and disk space. Output is pass/warn/fail per check, with remedy suggestions on failure. (#690)

  • OpenCode custom providers in the model picker. The TUI Configure Models screen previously only showed providers from the cached opencode catalog. Now it merges custom providers declared in your opencode.json — on key collision, your custom entry wins (user-managed beats catalog). (#693)

Security hardening

  • Default deny for sensitive paths in permissions. New installs ship with a default deny list covering ~/.ssh/*, ~/.credentials/*, ~/Library/Keychains/*, **/*.pem, **/*.key, **/.env*, **/secrets/*, ~/.aws/credentials, ~/.config/gh/hosts.yml, **/*.p12, **/*.pfx. Applied to Claude Code and OpenCode (the two adapters with a permissions overlay). User-managed deny rules are preserved. (#689)

  • CI workflows pinned to immutable commit SHAs. All .github/workflows/*.yml references to floating action tags (@v4, @v5, @v6, @v7) are now pinned to specific SHAs with the version as a comment. Dependabot/Renovate can keep them updated; the SHA pin closes the supply-chain hole. (#692)

Install & upgrade

  • Auto-detect order now matches the docs. effectiveMethod used to pick brew → binary and never auto-selected go-install, even when go was available and the tool had a GoImportPath declared. The detection now follows brew → go-install → binary as documented. (#691)

Docs

  • Comprehensive docs sync. Caught up README.md, PRD.md, docs/quickstart.md, docs/usage.md, docs/components.md, docs/agents.md, docs/non-interactive.md, docs/platforms.md, docs/rollback.md, and docs/antigravity-sdd-workaround.md with all the v1.31.0 + v1.32.0 changes (preset label renames, persona/preset decouple, --scope=workspace, GENTLE_AI_CONFIRM_UPDATE, doctor command, sensitive-paths deny, Trae IDE agent, Antigravity scope clarification, etc.). (#697)

What's new in v1.32.0

A productivity-focused release: every fix this cycle was driven by a real reporter (or by the persona/preset overhaul that landed in v1.31.0). 13 PRs from 8 contributors plus the maintainer.

TUI & UX

  • Claude model picker now shows your active preset. Opening Configure Claude models used to always start at Balanced regardless of what you had saved — now the picker reads ~/.gentle-ai/state.json and pre-selects the matching preset (or Custom if your assignments don't match any built-in). Adds a Current: <preset> hint under the title. (#681#675)

  • TUI agent selection respects state.json again. Both the Select AI Agents screen and the pre-upgrade backup were reading the filesystem for "which agents are installed", which silently re-marked every IDE config dir on disk — and, worse, ballooned snapshot backups to ~25 GiB by including dirs the user had explicitly unselected. state.InstalledAgents is now the canonical source. (#684#114 + #354)

Install & upgrade

  • install.sh upgrades now pin to the release tag. The script-based upgrade path used to fetch scripts/install.sh from main, so any commit between releases could land in a user's upgrade run before any version gate. The path now resolves to the exact target version (v1.32.0/scripts/install.sh) and fails closed when the tagged script is unreachable. (#683#247)

  • Windows installs no longer roll back on directory fsync. Windows/NTFS rejects fsync on a directory handle (ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED) even as Administrator. The installer used to treat that as failure and roll back successfully-written files. The tolerance was added in code on day one; this release documents the contract so contributors don't re-introduce a strict check. (#685#294)

Skills & SDD

  • comment-writer skill no longer overrides --persona neutral. The skill used to hard-code a "use Rioplatense voseo" rule and ship all examples in voseo, which contradicted the neutral persona's own contract. The skill is now language-neutral and defers regional tone to the active persona. (#680#674)

  • Skill registry parses Windows line endings. SKILL.md files written with CRLF (the Git for Windows default with core.autocrlf=true) used to silently fail frontmatter parsing — name fell back to the directory name and description rendered as . The parser now normalizes CRLF/CR → LF before YAML. (#679#678)

  • Engram protocol block stops accumulating in your config files. gentle-ai sync used to append a fresh <!-- gentle-ai:engram-protocol --> block on every run if the existing block had an orphan or missing closing marker — over time CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md could grow with dozens of duplicates. The block matcher now strips orphans before deciding to replace vs. append. (#687#301)

Agents

  • Trae IDE is now a first-class agent. Detection via ~/.trae, system prompt to user_rules/gentle-ai.md, MCP to mcp.json, skills to skills/. (#532#136 — thanks @Nathanael-Huaman)

  • AgentBuilder hardens generated skill prompt boundaries. Stops generated skills from leaking context that should stay scoped to the skill itself. (#577#576)

  • First slice of Engram data-directory work landed. Cross-platform disk-space utilities — foundation for moving Engram data safely. More slices coming. (#638#346 — thanks @tonyblu331)

  • Codex now writes AGENTS.md (uppercase) instead of the lowercase variant, matching the Codex CLI's read path on case-sensitive filesystems. (#686#299)

  • OpenCode Desktop reports the correct workspace. Slash commands used to capture the Electron process directory instead of the opened project — agents received the wrong workspace and could write artifacts under the OpenCode install dir. (#574#74 — thanks @LucianoDPerez)

  • Stale Context7 MCP fields no longer ship. OpenCode's strict schema rejected some legacy field shapes the installer was still writing. (#369#57 — thanks @LCubero)

v1.30.7 ships unified Google Antigravity support: the installer now keeps the public antigravity option while using the new Antigravity-compatible config, skills, MCP, plugin, and dynamic subagent behavior.

Highlights

  • Unified Antigravity surfaceantigravity is the single public installer option; the separate antigravity-cli option was removed.
  • Antigravity-compatible config layout — settings, skills, MCP config, and plugin hooks are installed under ~/.gemini/antigravity-cli/ while global prompt/persona content stays in ~/.gemini/GEMINI.md.
  • Engram MCP in Antigravity — the Antigravity plugin now includes its own mcp_config.json, hook reminders, and default engram mcp invocation so Antigravity receives Engram's standard MCP toolset.
  • Dynamic subagents with MCP tools — the Antigravity SDD orchestrator defines runtime phase subagents with MCP tools enabled.

Contribution highlights

  • Added unified Antigravity adapter coverage for config paths, settings, skills, MCP config, and catalog/factory resolution.
  • Added regression coverage ensuring antigravity-cli is not exposed as a separate CLI/TUI/catalog agent option.
  • Added Engram MCP/plugin tests for Antigravity's plugin-root mcp_config.json, hooks, and default MCP invocation.
  • Updated SDD/OpenSpec artifacts and golden files for the unified Antigravity behavior.

Contributors

Fixes included

  • feat(antigravity): add unified Antigravity support through the existing antigravity agent option. (#590)
  • docs(sync): document managed agent sync scope.

Verification

  • PR #590 CI passed: unit tests and E2E tests on Ubuntu, Fedora, and Arch.
  • Local verification passed: go test ./... and git diff --check.

v1.30.6

Choose a tag to compare

v1.30.6 is a patch release focused on cleaning up the rough edges found after the OpenCode SDD preflight work: localized prompts now stay in the user's language, Engram update checks target the correct release channel, and the Pi-only installer path has symmetric back navigation.

Highlights

  • OpenCode SDD preflight localization — Spanish sessions now get a fully Spanish preflight prompt instead of a Spanish intro followed by English option labels like Pace, Artifacts, and Review.
  • Engram update channel filtering — gentle-ai now checks Engram's binary release channel instead of being confused by Pi/package-channel tags.
  • Pi-only installer back navigation — selecting only Pi and going back from the dependency plan now returns to agent selection, not unrelated Gentle AI configuration screens.

Contribution highlights

  • Added regression coverage for OpenCode preflight prompt localization and preserved-prompt migration.
  • Added update-check tests for Engram release filtering, pagination, and GitHub Link header parsing.
  • Added broad TUI install navigation round-trip coverage across Pi-only, OpenCode, SDD single/multi, model picker, plugin picker, custom preset, skills, and review paths.

Pi companion notes

  • This release improves the Pi-only install flow from the gentle-ai side: Pi users no longer get routed into persona, SDD/TDD, or multi-agent configuration screens when navigating back from the generated dependency plan.
  • No Pi package changes are required for this fix; upgrading gentle-ai is enough.

Fixes included

  • fix(opencode): localize SDD preflight prompts and harden preserved OpenCode orchestrator prompt migration. (#593)
  • fix(update): filter Engram updates to the binary release channel so Pi/package tags do not appear as binary upgrades. (#594)
  • fix(tui): restore Pi-only back navigation and add install-flow round-trip regression coverage. (#595)

  • b243d06 fix(opencode): localize SDD preflight prompts
  • 36051a1 fix(update): filter engram binary release channel
  • c84c961 fix(tui): restore Pi-only back navigation
