AgentXchain v2.156.0

v2.156.0 is the lights-out resilience and safety-hardening release: governed vision-driven runs now survive provider rate limits, stalled turns, and cold starts without operator intervention, while autonomy stays strictly inside human-set boundaries — --auto-approve can never approve a credentialed exit gate, and untrusted verification-replay commands can never reach a shell. It also lands the organization-scope dashboard, CI-native run reporting, and a hosted-runner server.

What's New​

  • Lights-out long-horizon execution. Continuous vision-driven runs recover from Claude/provider rate limits with reset-aware backoff, detect and restart stalled turns via a liveness heartbeat, bootstrap a fresh run from cold state, and resolve turn-scoped staging paths correctly — so a run started from a VISION doc keeps making progress unattended.
  • Organization dashboard. Four new org-scope views — Org Overview, Org Runs, Org History, and Audit Trail — aggregate status, runs, history, and the decision audit trail across every registered project.
  • CI-native reporting and a hosted runner. agentxchain ci-report emits GitHub Actions annotations and JUnit XML; agentxchain serve starts the hosted runner HTTP server for one or more governed projects.

Safety​

  • --auto-approve never auto-approves credentialed exit gates. Lights-out autonomy is delegated approval within human-set boundaries: gates wired to a credentialed approver still require explicit human approval even under full auto-approve.
  • Verification-replay can never reach a shell. Agent-declared machine_evidence commands execute argv-only (no shell expansion, chaining, or substitution) and only on explicit operator opt-in (verify turn --execute / replay turn --execute); the default is fail-safe non-execution.

Bug Fixes​

  • Empty-workspace completions stay fail-closed. A completed turn from a code-writing role that declares a workspace artifact with no files_changed is rejected as ambiguous instead of being silently treated as a review; review-only roles keep the legitimate no-edit-review path (BUG-78).
  • Proposed turns no longer fail checkpoint. Turns whose files materialize under .agentxchain/proposed/ skip the workspace checkpoint cleanly instead of failing git add, unblocking proposed authoring across api_proxy, remote_agent, and proposal-aware flows.
  • Verification-replay tokenizer honors escaped quotes. Replay commands like node -e "{\"ok\":true}" tokenize correctly while preserving the no-shell guarantee.

Evidence​

  • npm test -- --test-timeout=60000 -> 7528 tests / 1520 suites / 0 failures / 5 skipped

Tester Re-Run Contract​

Verify: npx --yes -p [email protected] -c "agentxchain --version"

Carry-forward tester checks for shipped-package closure proof:

  • BUG-54 startup watchdog evidence should quote startup_latency_ms, elapsed_since_spawn_ms, and runtimes.<id>.startup_watchdog_ms.
  • BUG-55/87 verification-output evidence should quote undeclared_verification_outputs, verification.produced_files, and git status --short after accept-turn followed by checkpoint-turn. Clean tree means BUG-55 is fixed for your reproduction.
  • BUG-52/53 continuous recovery evidence should quote phase_entered, reconciled_before_dispatch, and session_continuation.
