[2.39.0] - 2026-03-10

Added

  • ce:compound context budget precheck — Warns when context is constrained and offers compact-safe mode to avoid compaction mid-compound (#235)
  • ce:plan daily sequence numbers — Plan filenames now include a 3-digit daily sequence number (e.g., 2026-03-10-001-feat-...) to prevent collisions (#238)
  • ce:review serial mode — Pass --serial flag (or auto-detects when 6+ agents configured) to run review agents sequentially, preventing context limit crashes (#237)

  • CLI: MCP server merge order — sync now correctly overwrites same-named MCP servers with plugin values instead of preserving stale entries

Removed

  • every-style-editor agent — Removed duplicate agent; functionality already exists as every-style-editor skill (#234)

Contributors

  • Matt Van Horn (@mvanhorn) — PRs #231–#238

[2.38.1] - 2026-03-01

Fixed

  • Cross-platform AskUserQuestion fallback — setup skill and create-new-skill/add-workflow workflows now include an "Interaction Method" preamble that instructs non-Claude LLMs (Codex, Gemini, Copilot, Kiro) to use numbered lists instead of AskUserQuestion, preventing silent auto-configuration. (#204)
  • Codex AGENTS.md AskUserQuestion mapping — Strengthened from "ask the user in chat" to structured numbered-list guidance with multi-select support and a "never skip or auto-configure" rule.
  • Skill compliance checklist — Added AskUserQuestion lint rule to CLAUDE.md to prevent recurrence.

[2.38.0] - 2026-03-01

Changed

  • workflows:plan, workflows:work, workflows:review, workflows:brainstorm, workflows:compound renamed to ce:plan, ce:work, ce:review, ce:brainstorm, ce:compound for clarity — the ce: prefix unambiguously identifies these as compound-engineering commands

Deprecated

  • workflows:* commands — all five remain functional as aliases that forward to their ce:* equivalents with a deprecation notice. Will be removed in a future version.

[2.37.2] - 2026-03-01

Added

  • CLI: auto-detect install targets — bunx @every-env/compound-plugin install compound-engineering --to all auto-detects installed AI coding tools and installs to all of them in one command. (#191)
  • CLI: Gemini sync — sync --target gemini symlinks personal skills to .gemini/skills/ and merges MCP servers into .gemini/settings.json. (#191)
  • CLI: sync defaults to --target all — Running sync with no target now syncs to all detected tools automatically. (#191)

[2.37.1] - 2026-03-01

Fixed

  • /workflows:review rendering — Fixed broken markdown output: "Next Steps" items 3 & 4 and Severity Breakdown no longer leak outside the Summary Report template, section numbering fixed (was jumping 5→7, now correct), removed orphaned fenced code block delimiters that caused the entire End-to-End Testing section to render as a code block, and fixed unclosed quoted string in section 1. (#214) — thanks @XSAM!
  • .worktrees gitignore — Added .worktrees/ to .gitignore to prevent worktree directories created by the git-worktree skill from being tracked. (#213) — thanks @XSAM!

[2.37.0] - 2026-03-01

Added

  • proof skill — Create, edit, comment on, and share markdown documents via Proof's web API and local bridge. Supports document creation, track-changes suggestions, comments, and bulk rewrites. No authentication required for creating shared documents.
  • Optional Proof sharing in /workflows:brainstorm — "Share to Proof" is now a menu option in Phase 4 handoff, letting you upload the brainstorm document when you want to, rather than automatically on every run.
  • Optional Proof sharing in /workflows:plan — "Share to Proof" is now a menu option in Post-Generation Options, letting you upload the plan file on demand rather than automatically.

[2.36.0] - 2026-03-01

Added

  • OpenClaw install target — bunx @every-env/compound-plugin install compound-engineering --to openclaw now installs the plugin to OpenClaw's extensions directory. (#217) — thanks @TrendpilotAI!
  • Qwen Code install target — bunx @every-env/compound-plugin install compound-engineering --to qwen now installs the plugin to Qwen Code's extensions directory. (#220) — thanks @rlam3!
  • Windsurf install target — bunx @every-env/compound-plugin install compound-engineering --to windsurf converts plugins to Windsurf format. Agents become Windsurf skills, commands become flat workflows, and MCP servers write to mcp_config.json. Defaults to global scope (~/.codeium/windsurf/); use --scope workspace for project-level output. (#202) — thanks @rburnham52!

Fixed

  • create-agent-skill / heal-skill YAML crash — argument-hint values containing special characters now properly quoted to prevent YAML parse errors in the Claude Code TUI. (#219) — thanks @solon!
  • resolve-pr-parallel skill name — Renamed from resolve_pr_parallel (underscore) to resolve-pr-parallel (hyphen) to match the standard naming convention. (#202) — thanks @rburnham52!

[2.35.2] - 2026-02-20

Changed

  • /workflows:plan brainstorm integration — When plan finds a brainstorm document, it now heavily references it throughout. Added origin: frontmatter field to plan templates, brainstorm cross-check in final review, and "Sources" section at the bottom of all three plan templates (MINIMAL, MORE, A LOT). Brainstorm decisions are carried forward with explicit references (see brainstorm: <path>) and a mandatory scan before finalizing ensures nothing is dropped.

[2.35.1] - 2026-02-18

Changed

  • /workflows:work system-wide test check — Added "System-Wide Test Check" to the task execution loop. Before marking a task done, forces five questions: what callbacks/middleware fire when this runs? Do tests exercise the real chain or just mocked isolation? Can failure leave orphaned state? What other interfaces need the same change? Do error strategies align across layers? Includes skip criteria for leaf-node changes. Also added integration test guidance to the "Test Continuously" section.
  • /workflows:plan system-wide impact templates — Added "System-Wide Impact" section to MORE and A LOT plan templates (interaction graph, error propagation, state lifecycle, API surface parity, integration test scenarios) as lightweight prompts to flag risks during planning.

[2.35.0] - 2026-02-17

Fixed

  • /lfg and /slfg first-run failures — Made ralph-loop step optional with graceful fallback when ralph-wiggum skill is not installed (#154). Added explicit "do not stop" instruction across all steps (#134).
  • /workflows:plan not writing file in pipeline — Added mandatory "Write Plan File" step with explicit Write tool instructions before Post-Generation Options. The file is now always written to disk before any interactive prompts (#155). Also adds pipeline-mode note to skip AskUserQuestion calls when invoked from LFG/SLFG (#134).
  • Agent namespace typo in /workflows:plan — Task spec-flow-analyzer(...) now uses the full qualified name Task compound-engineering:workflow:spec-flow-analyzer(...) to prevent Claude from prepending the wrong workflows: prefix (#193).

[2.34.0] - 2026-02-14

Added

  • Gemini CLI target — New converter target for Gemini CLI. Install with --to gemini to convert agents to .gemini/skills/*/SKILL.md, commands to .gemini/commands/*.toml (TOML format with description + prompt), and MCP servers to .gemini/settings.json. Skills pass through unchanged (identical SKILL.md standard). Namespaced commands create directory structure (workflows:plan → commands/workflows/plan.toml). 29 new tests. (#190)

[2.33.1] - 2026-02-13

Changed

  • /workflows:plan command - All plan templates now include status: active in YAML frontmatter. Plans are created with status: active and marked status: completed when work finishes.
  • /workflows:work command - Phase 4 now updates plan frontmatter from status: active to status: completed after shipping. Agents can grep for status to distinguish current vs historical plans.

[2.33.0] - 2026-02-12

Added

  • setup skill — Interactive configurator for review agents
    • Auto-detects project type (Rails, Python, TypeScript, etc.)
    • Two paths: "Auto-configure" (one click) or "Customize" (pick stack, focus areas, depth)
    • Writes compound-engineering.local.md in project root (tool-agnostic — works for Claude, Codex, OpenCode)
    • Invoked automatically by /workflows:review when no settings file exists
  • learnings-researcher in /workflows:review — Always-run agent that searches docs/solutions/ for past issues related to the PR
  • schema-drift-detector wired into /workflows:review — Conditional agent for PRs with migrations

Changed

  • /workflows:review — Now reads review agents from compound-engineering.local.md settings file. Falls back to invoking setup skill if no file exists.
  • /workflows:work — Review agents now configurable via settings file
  • /release-docs command — Moved from plugin to local .claude/commands/ (repo maintenance, not distributed)

Removed

  • /technical_review command — Superseded by configurable review agents

[2.32.0] - 2026-02-11

Added

  • Factory Droid target — New converter target for Factory Droid. Install with --to droid to output agents, commands, and skills to ~/.factory/. Includes tool name mapping (Claude → Factory), namespace prefix stripping, Task syntax conversion, and agent reference rewriting. 13 new tests (9 converter + 4 writer). (#174)

[2.31.1] - 2026-02-09

Changed

  • dspy-ruby skill — Complete rewrite to DSPy.rb v0.34.3 API: .call() / result.field patterns, T::Enum classes, DSPy::Tools::Base / Toolset. Added events system, lifecycle callbacks, fiber-local LM context, GEPA optimization, evaluation framework, typed context pattern, BAML/TOON schema formats, storage system, score reporting, RubyLLM adapter. 5 reference files (2 new: toolsets, observability), 3 asset templates rewritten.

[2.31.0] - 2026-02-08

Added

  • document-review skill — Brainstorm and plan refinement through structured review (@Trevin Chow)
  • /sync command — Sync Claude Code personal config across machines (@Terry Li)

Changed

  • Context token optimization (79% reduction) — Plugin was consuming 316% of the context description budget, causing Claude Code to silently exclude components. Now at 65% with room to grow:
    • All 29 agent descriptions trimmed from ~1,400 to ~180 chars avg (examples moved to agent body)
    • 18 manual commands marked disable-model-invocation: true (side-effect commands like /lfg, /deploy-docs, /triage, etc.)
    • 6 manual skills marked disable-model-invocation: true (orchestrating-swarms, git-worktree, skill-creator, compound-docs, file-todos, resolve-pr-parallel)
  • git-worktree: Remove confirmation prompt for worktree creation (@Sam Xie)
  • Prevent subagents from writing intermediary files in compound workflow (@Trevin Chow)

Fixed

  • Fix crash when hook entries have no matcher (@Roberto Mello)
  • Fix git-worktree detection where .git is a file, not a directory (@David Alley)
  • Backup existing config files before overwriting in sync (@Zac Williams)
  • Note new repository URL (@Aarni Koskela)
  • Plugin component counts corrected: 29 agents, 24 commands, 18 skills

[2.18.0] - 2025-12-25

Added

  • agent-native-architecture skill - Added Dynamic Capability Discovery pattern and Architecture Review Checklist:

    New Patterns in mcp-tool-design.md:

    • Dynamic Capability Discovery - For external APIs (HealthKit, HomeKit, GraphQL), build a discovery tool (list_*) that returns available capabilities at runtime, plus a generic access tool that takes strings (not enums). The API validates, not your code. This means agents can use new API capabilities without code changes.
    • CRUD Completeness - Every entity the agent can create must also be readable, updatable, and deletable. Incomplete CRUD = broken action parity.

    New in SKILL.md:

    • Architecture Review Checklist - Pushes reviewer findings earlier into the design phase. Covers tool design (dynamic vs static, CRUD completeness), action parity (capability map, edit/delete), UI integration (agent → UI communication), and context injection.
    • Option 11: API Integration - New intake option for connecting to external APIs like HealthKit, HomeKit, GraphQL
    • New anti-patterns: Static Tool Mapping (building individual tools for each API endpoint), Incomplete CRUD (create-only tools)
    • Tool Design Criteria section added to success criteria checklist

    New in shared-workspace-architecture.md:

    • iCloud File Storage for Multi-Device Sync - Use iCloud Documents for your shared workspace to get free, automatic multi-device sync without building a sync layer. Includes implementation pattern, conflict handling, entitlements, and when NOT to use it.

Philosophy

This update codifies a key insight for agent-native apps: when integrating with external APIs where the agent should have the same access as the user, use Dynamic Capability Discovery instead of static tool mapping. Instead of building read_steps, read_heart_rate, read_sleep... build list_health_types + read_health_data(dataType: string). The agent discovers what's available, the API validates the type.

Note: This pattern is specifically for agent-native apps following the "whatever the user can do, the agent can do" philosophy. For constrained agents with intentionally limited capabilities, static tool mapping may be appropriate.

[2.17.0] - 2025-12-25

Enhanced

  • agent-native-architecture skill - Major expansion based on real-world learnings from building the Every Reader iOS app. Added 5 new reference documents and expanded existing ones:

    New References:

    • dynamic-context-injection.md - How to inject runtime app state into agent system prompts. Covers context injection patterns, what context to inject (resources, activity, capabilities, vocabulary), implementation patterns for Swift/iOS and TypeScript, and context freshness.
    • action-parity-discipline.md - Workflow for ensuring agents can do everything users can do. Includes capability mapping templates, parity audit process, PR checklists, tool design for parity, and context parity guidelines.
    • shared-workspace-architecture.md - Patterns for agents and users working in the same data space. Covers directory structure, file tools, UI integration (file watching, shared stores), agent-user collaboration patterns, and security considerations.
    • agent-native-testing.md - Testing patterns for agent-native apps. Includes "Can Agent Do It?" tests, the Surprise Test, automated parity testing, integration testing, and CI/CD integration.
    • mobile-patterns.md - Mobile-specific patterns for iOS/Android. Covers background execution (checkpoint/resume), permission handling, cost-aware design (model tiers, token budgets, network awareness), offline handling, and battery awareness.

    Updated References:

    • architecture-patterns.md - Added 3 new patterns: Unified Agent Architecture (one orchestrator, many agent types), Agent-to-UI Communication (shared data store, file watching, event bus), and Model Tier Selection (fast/balanced/powerful).

    Updated Skill Root:

    • SKILL.md - Expanded intake menu (now 10 options including context injection, action parity, shared workspace, testing, mobile patterns). Added 5 new agent-native anti-patterns (Context Starvation, Orphan Features, Sandbox Isolation, Silent Actions, Capability Hiding). Expanded success criteria with agent-native and mobile-specific checklists.

  • agent-native-reviewer agent - Significantly enhanced with comprehensive review process covering all new patterns. Now checks for action parity, context parity, shared workspace, tool design (primitives vs workflows), dynamic context injection, and mobile-specific concerns. Includes detailed anti-patterns, output format template, quick checks ("Write to Location" test, Surprise test), and mobile-specific verification.

Philosophy

These updates operationalize a key insight from building agent-native mobile apps: "The agent should be able to do anything the user can do, through tools that mirror UI capabilities, with full context about the app state." The failure case that prompted these changes: an agent asked "what reading feed?" when a user said "write something in my reading feed"—because it had no publish_to_feed tool and no context about what "feed" meant.

[2.16.0] - 2025-12-21

Enhanced

  • dhh-rails-style skill - Massively expanded reference documentation incorporating patterns from Marc Köhlbrugge's Unofficial 37signals Coding Style Guide:
