AnimaWorks v0.8.0

Added

Memory & Neo4j

• Neo4j memory backend foundation: entities, facts, temporal attributes, graph schema, search, and backend abstraction
• Hybrid memory search with BM25, vector search, graph BFS, RRF, reranking, and all-scope search
• Bi-temporal memory search using valid_at filters and boosts
• Fact/entity extraction pipeline with contradiction-based invalidation and entity resolution
• Community detection and graph context injection for Priming
• Memory migration CLI with backup, checkpoint, and rollback support
• LoCoMo benchmark adapter and evaluation tooling for memory quality comparisons
• Per-Anima memory backend switching

RAG Reliability

• RAG auto-repair and supervised repair lifecycle
• Worker-only ChromaDB access through the vector worker to avoid unsafe multi-process native access
• Recovery for missing ChromaDB collections and wiped vectordb
• CPU fallback when CUDA probing fails during embedding model load
• Serialized native vector operations to reduce ChromaDB HNSW corruption risk

Skills

• Enhanced SKILL.md loader/index compatible with Hermes-style skills
• Skill usage tracking and metrics
• SkillIndex integration into the prompt builder and ToolHandler
• Skill hub importer, skill curator lifecycle, quarantine, trust gates, and promotion pipeline
• Explicit skill activation backend and activation rendering
• Procedure skill promotion pipeline and autonomous skill lifecycle
• Skill-backed cron context
• Legacy flat skill migration into trusted skill bundles
• Hermes and OpenClaw skill migration importers

TaskBoard & Work Management

• TaskBoard SQLite projection foundation
• TaskBoard API, dashboard UI, summary projection, stale housekeeping, and attention resolver
• Task execution gating with TaskBoard attention
• Persistent goal loop and goal judgment
• Workspace access grant tool

Workspace Replay

• Workspace replay foundation, semantic events, and replay narrative UI
• Semantic replay support for the activity timeline and workspace visualization

Execution & Runtime Isolation

• Runtime session isolation for chat, non-chat, consolidation, and execution lanes
• Agent session lane isolation and duplicate submit_tasks guard
• Auto-approval for AnimaWorks MCP tools in Mode C
• Action-aware priming for Mode S and action memory gate for Mode C
• PreCompact hook to block unsafe SDK auto-compaction
• Azure OpenAI support for Codex mode
• Config-level default model fallback and smarter credential/mode resolution

Supervisor & Bootstrap

• Bootstrap lifecycle repair and complete bootstrap repair command
• Better scheduler/cron health detection, including expected-fire gating and a 24h no-execution window
• Inbox TTL hygiene and failed-message retry/skip protection
• Board outbound sync whitelist
• Reverse-proxy sub-path deployment via base_path

Community Contributions

• Merged external contributor fixes:
  • #167: schedule parser day-of-week wraparound handling
  • #177: base-path template literal fix
  • #185: cron health no-execution window widened to 24h
  • #186: PPC reference guidance for automation projects

Changed

• Memory architecture now supports both legacy and Neo4j-backed operation
• Priming can now include graph/community context and memory pointers
• Skill handling moved toward explicit activation, trust, quarantine, promotion, and bundled SKILL.md structures
• submit_tasks is gated to explicit background sessions to prevent duplicate work
• Tool and action behavior rules are synchronized across behavior templates, action memory, and skill rules
• Cron health warnings are softer for low-frequency daily/weekly crons
• Documentation and README content updated for the current memory architecture

Fixed

Stability

Task & Supervisor

• Fixed TaskBoard execution gate review issues
• Fixed snoozed batch task suppression behavior
• Fixed task completion notification limits

• Updated README files and feature/API/CLI documentation

Internal

• Added CI workflow updates and broad test coverage for memory, skills, TaskBoard, replay, runtime isolation, and RAG repair
• Added benchmark artifacts and LoCoMo evaluation results
• Large refactors across memory, skills, prompt building, ToolHandler, supervisor, and server routes
