ForgeFlow V4.4.0 · 7 September 2026

Task evidence and recovery

Keep an objective, acceptance criteria, source-bound validation, and phase history together across Claude Code and Codex. This minor release adds the task workflow and includes the workshop and runtime improvements delivered since 4.3.72.

New capabilities

Reliability fixes

Also included since 4.3.72

The refreshed workshop and Ember companion, session dashboard opening, visual HTML/PDF guide, rewritten wiki onboarding, Codex model inheritance, research divergence tools, memory and command-learning controls, runtime hardening, and deterministic CI.

Update and boundaries

Use /update-forgeflow in Claude Code or $update-forgeflow in Codex, then restart the host and any running dashboard to load the updated runtime. A Git worktree with an initial commit is required for task evidence. Existing workflows without task records remain supported.

Task recovery restores saved phase context, not hidden model state. Fleet validates declarations without reserving infrastructure. Maintenance prepares local drafts without publishing a PR. Comparison fixtures are not claims of model superiority or user adoption. Initialized Git submodules remain unsupported by whole-repository task snapshots.

Validation

The task implementation and corrective review passed 195 test commands, including TypeScript and both installed host packages, and 25 browser tests. Regression cases cover record growth, Git-layer cancellation, real archive responsiveness and native-worker deadline cleanup.
