Shepherd: release notes

Each version, newest first.

0.2.12

It carries the Steward's kit 2.36.1: the parts every agent of the manor shares.

What changed

  • The Steward's kit 2.36.1: GenieX 0.8.0 is the NPU's server on a Snapdragon.

Before you update

  • Nothing: it updates itself as usual. This kit comes after 2.36.0; 2.33.0 (Steward 0.19.4) is still to be released and doesn't depend on it.

0.2.11

It carries the Steward's kit 2.35.0: the parts every agent of the manor shares.

What changed

  • The Steward's kit 2.35.0: A release of an agent Castellan sells goes to the Exchequer, and no longer to the public releases repository.

Before you update

  • Nothing: it updates itself as usual. Agents for sale stop appearing in the public releases repository once the Exchequer 0.6.0 is deployed with its migration applied. Until then, releases go there as before.

0.2.10

It carries the Steward's kit 2.34.0: the parts every agent of the manor shares.

What changed

  • The Steward's kit 2.34.0: An agent's rounds never stop silently.

Before you update

  • Nothing: it updates itself as usual. This kit comes after 2.33.0 (Steward 0.19.4); if 2.33.0 isn't released yet, release it first.

0.2.9

It carries the Steward's kit 2.32.1: the parts every agent of the manor shares.

What changed

It carries the Steward's kit 2.32.0: the parts every agent of the manor shares.

What changed

It carries the Steward's kit 2.31.0: the parts every agent of the manor shares.

What changed

  • The Steward's kit 2.31.0: Local AI on every Copilot+ NPU, installed by setup: Qualcomm Snapdragon, Intel Core Ultra and AMD Ryzen AI.

Before you update

  • The accelerators move from Reeve's config.json to %USERPROFILE%\.manor\accelerators\config.json the first time the Smith (or Reeve's keeper) reads them after updating: a copy, word for word, and Reeve's file is left as it was. Nothing to do.
  • On a PC whose NPU isn't set up yet, the Smith's or Manor's Set up now offers its maker's server and models (several GB) and asks first.

0.2.6

It carries the Steward's kit 2.29.0: the parts every agent of the manor shares.

What changed

  • Nothing: it updates itself as usual.

0.2.5

Before its first round, it no longer says nothing starts with Windows.

What changed

  • A new hire's page said "Nothing of yours starts with Windows" before the Shepherd had looked. It now says the first round reads what starts with Windows, and shows what does once it has.

  • Nothing: it updates itself as usual.

0.2.4

It names no folders of one particular PC.

What changed

  • Its entry for Manor (manor-agent.json) no longer names a Node in a folder only one PC has: it runs on Manor's own Node, or one installed in the usual place.

0.2.2

It carries the Steward's kit 2.28.0: the parts every agent of the manor shares.

What changed

Before you update

  • Nothing: it updates itself as usual.

0.2.1

It carries the Steward's kit 2.27.0: the parts every agent of the manor shares.

What changed

  • The Steward's kit 2.27.0: An accelerator's name is what the PC calls it, never a setting.

Before you update

  • Nothing: it updates itself as usual.

0.2.0

A shorter Settings page, and a tour for new hires.

What's new

  • A tour. When Manor hires the Shepherd it offers its tour: what it does, what counts as notable CPU and a lot of memory, the apps it leaves be, then its page. Open it again any time at #/tour.
  • The manor's page frame. The title bar, on and off duty, the theme and Back to Manor are the same as on every agent's page, and Run now is in the title bar.

What changed

  • Settings is short. It shows notable CPU, a lot of memory and the apps left be. The round interval, the averaging window, the relauncher limits, the developer tools and the notes per round are under Advanced.
  • The round interval and the notes per round are now the manor's usual settings. Your old values are kept.

Before you update

  • Nothing: it updates itself as usual. Your settings and the apps you left be are kept.
