Changelog

0.4.0-rc.1 — Unreleased

• Prepare a portable local distribution with English and Japanese installation instructions, ready-made marketplace layout, and explicit runtime requirements.
• Add POSIX shell and PowerShell launchers for existing Python 3.10+ runtimes. Preserve arguments and helper failure status without automatic installation.
• Add deterministic allowlisted ZIP builds, checksum output, packaging tests, and macOS to the existing Windows/Linux offline CI matrix.
• Add Apache-2.0 license metadata and mark the plugin as requiring local execution.
• Record first-install recovery steps and distinguish offline checks, conditional live Windows acceptance, and still-unverified onboarding/platform behavior.

The Python helper's configuration/image behavior is unchanged. A Python-free Bash backend is not included. This candidate has not been published.

0.3.0

• Add cached_only alongside always, hybrid, and pre_generate image modes.
• Separate character/appearance from shared persona/voice and scope from focus.
• Add v1 configuration migration with backups and preserve shared-persona bindings during legacy registration edits.
• Add offline review-quality contracts and Windows/Linux CI. Preserve findings, severity, evidence, and unverified scope across persona wording changes.
