* refactor: migrate icon fields from emoji to lucide:<name> tokens
Every TOML manifest's `icon = "<emoji>"` line is replaced with
`icon = "lucide:<kebab-name>"` — a reference to a lucide-react icon,
which the librefang.ai site and dashboard render as crisp SVG. Reasons
for the switch:
- Emoji render very differently across OS/browser/font stacks; the
registry catalog looked inconsistent from one row to the next.
- Five manifests (clip / creator / linkedin / reddit / twitter) had
their icons stored as literal Python-style escape strings
("\\U0001F3AC") because the TOML parser upstream never decoded
them. Switching away from emoji drops that class of bug entirely.
- As a drive-by, also decode the \\uXXXX accent escapes in the
[i18n.fr] block of hands/creator/HAND.toml so "Créateur" shows
up correctly.
87 files touched. example manifests left untouched (still "TODO").
* fix: backfill i18n name + drop the single-member email category
- Every existing [i18n.<lang>] block now has a `name` field. 60 files
previously translated description but kept the English name
implicitly — which rendered as "some English some Chinese" in the
registry UI. Fill in the missing name from the English brand (or a
known localized equivalent: DingTalk→钉钉, Feishu→飞书, Email→
电子邮件 / メール / E-Mail / Correo / Courriel, and a handful of
hands that have Chinese product names like 视频剪辑 Hand).
- channels/email.toml was the only item under category="email";
reclassify it as "messaging" so the sub-category filter chip list
on the category page isn't littered with singletons.
* feat(i18n): localize 76 agents/integrations/plugins into 7 languages
Adds full [i18n.zh], [i18n.zh-TW], [i18n.ja], [i18n.ko], [i18n.de],
[i18n.es], [i18n.fr] blocks with name + description to every manifest
that previously shipped English-only.
Coverage:
- 32 agents (academic-researcher, analyst, architect, assistant,
code-reviewer, coder, customer-support, data-scientist, debugger,
devops-lead, doc-writer, email-assistant, health-tracker,
hello-world, home-automation, legal-assistant, meeting-assistant,
ops, orchestrator, personal-finance, planner, recipe-assistant,
recruiter, researcher, sales-assistant, security-auditor,
social-media, test-engineer, translator, travel-planner, tutor,
writer)
- 33 integrations (AWS, Azure, Bitbucket, Brave Search, Discord,
Dropbox, Elasticsearch, Exa Search, Fetch, Filesystem, GCP, Git,
GitHub, GitLab, Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, Google Maps,
Jira, Linear, Memory, MongoDB, Notion, PostgreSQL, Puppeteer, Redis,
Sentry, Sequential Thinking, Slack, SQLite, Teams, Time, Todoist) —
brand names kept as-is across all locales, only descriptions
translated.
- 11 plugins (auto-summarizer, context-decay, conversation-logger,
episodic-memory, guardrails, keyword-memory, mempalace-indexer,
sentiment-tracker, todo-tracker, topic-memory, user-profile)
The descriptions are one-line summaries — hand-translated rather than
machine-generated, so technical terms (MCP, PR, CI/CD, etc.) stay
consistent across locales.
* feat(i18n): close remaining per-lang gaps for channels, workflows, devteam
Third pass on i18n coverage. Every non-example manifest now carries a
full set of [i18n.zh], [i18n.zh-TW], [i18n.ja], [i18n.ko], [i18n.de],
[i18n.es], [i18n.fr] blocks.
- 44 channel adapters: added French descriptions (zh/zh-TW/ja/ko/de/es
were already present). Brand names kept as-is in all locales so users
recognize Discord / Slack / LINE / etc. consistently.
- 22 workflows: filled zh-TW / ja / ko / de / es / fr blocks. Each
translation mirrors the existing zh one in structure and tone so the
catalog reads consistently across locales.
- hands/devteam/HAND.toml: added the four langs that were missing
(zh-TW, de, es, fr).
Only the 6 templates under examples/ are left without i18n blocks on
purpose — they still contain "TODO:" placeholders.
Squashed replay of the original 9-commit branch onto current main. The
original branch was 30+ commits behind, forked from before the skills
refactor (PR #42) and workflow template expansion (PR #36), so a
standard rebase hit heavy add/add conflicts on workflows/*.toml that
are unrelated to the wiki hand.
This replay keeps only the final hands/wiki/ tree state, which is the
actual intent of the PR (the author iterated several times on the same
files; squashing matches that).
Implements the "LLM Wiki" pattern (Andrej Karpathy) for building a
personal, Obsidian-compatible knowledge base. Instead of on-the-fly
RAG, the wiki hand incrementally maintains a Markdown vault:

* feat(hands): add devteam hand -- autonomous software development team
Multi-agent hand with 7 roles (PM, Architect, Frontend, Backend, DevOps, QA, Designer)
and 3 team size tiers (simple/standard/full) for different project scales.
PM coordinator auto-scans GitHub issues, triages, assigns tasks to specialists,
and tracks progress on an in-memory project board.
* refactor(hands): slim devteam to 3 agents (PM + Engineer + QA)
7 agents with serial agent_send = massive token waste and info loss at every
handoff. Merge architect/frontend/backend/devops into one Engineer with full
context. Keep QA separate for independent verification. Drop designer.
Tiers: lite (PM + Engineer) and standard (PM + Engineer + QA).
* fix(hands/devteam): fix workspace isolation and git workflow gaps
- PM uses GitHub API for code browsing, no repo clone needed
- Engineer explicitly clones repo, branches, commits, pushes, creates PR
- QA explicitly clones repo, checks out branch under review
- PM tracks last_scan timestamp to filter already-triaged issues
- approval_mode now means PR stays open for review, not skip commit
* fix(hands/devteam): use shared repo checkout instead of per-agent clones
All 3 agents share one checkout at ../shared/repo/. Engineer clones it
on the first task; PM and QA read from the same path. Eliminates
duplicate clones and cross-workspace visibility issues.
* fix(hands/devteam): read issue comments before triaging
Comments contain clarifications, reproduction steps, duplicate markers,
and resolution status. Also skip already-assigned and wontfix issues.
* fix(hands/devteam): fix interactive git add, add merge/close APIs, add fix iteration flow
- Replace git add -p (interactive) with git add <specific files>
- PM prompt now has explicit merge PR and close issue API calls
- Engineer has explicit fix-request handling (same branch, push, no new PR)
* feat(hands/devteam): add full GitHub interaction -- PR review, issue comments, labels
PM:
- Labels issues during triage, comments triage status
- Scans open PRs for external review requests
- Comments on issues linking merged PRs
Engineer:
- Replies to review comments on PR after fixing
- Reviews external PRs with APPROVE/REQUEST_CHANGES + line comments
QA:
- Leaves PR review (APPROVE or REQUEST_CHANGES with line comments)
- All findings visible on GitHub, not just via agent_send
SKILL.md:
- Added PR diff, reviews, review comments, reply, merge API references
* fix(hands/devteam): enforce English comments, line-level reviews, comment-before-close
- All GitHub comments/reviews must be in English (added global rule)
- PR reviews must use comments[] with path+line, not body-only
- Comment on issue with resolution details BEFORE closing/merging
- Improved comment templates with structured info
* fix(hands/devteam): 8 logic fixes from end-to-end workflow review
1. Filter PRs from Issues API (pull_request key)
2. PM sends PR number to QA for review
3. Deduplicate PR scanning via devteam_reviewed_prs
4. QA reports test gaps instead of pushing code to shared branch
5. branch_strategy wired into Engineer (gitflow branches from develop)
6. approval_mode: ON = wait for human, OFF = auto-merge after QA
7. scan_interval mapped to schedule_create every_secs
8. git checkout -B instead of -b to handle existing branches
* fix(hands/devteam): second-pass review — 6 more logic fixes
1. Engineer extracts PR number from create-PR API response
2. PM falls back to GitHub Contents API when shared repo not yet cloned
3. QA gets external PR review flow (was only on Engineer)
4. PM checks CI status + mergeable before merging
5. PM handles merge conflict (409) by sending back to Engineer to rebase
6. i18n approval_mode description synced with actual semantics
* fix(hands/devteam): third-pass — runtime scenarios
1. Deduplicate cron schedule on daemon restart (check schedule_list first)
2. Max 3 review rounds before escalating to user (prevent infinite loop)
3. Clean working directory before switching tasks (git checkout -- . && git clean)
4. Add user direct commands (work on #42, status, review PR #50)
5. Pass tech_stack to Engineer in task delegation
6. Fix duplicate step numbering in Review Cycle
* fix(hands/devteam): fourth-pass — state consistency and edge cases
1. QA force-syncs to remote branch (git checkout -B origin/branch) for force-push safety
2. Board sync step: reconcile with GitHub each scan cycle (catch external closes/merges)
3. Prune devteam_reviewed_prs of closed PRs, cap done list at 30
4. PM checks CI before sending to QA (don't waste QA on red builds)
5. Stop/cancel command: remove from board, comment on issue
6. Explicit rebase commands for Engineer (fetch + rebase + force-with-lease)
* fix(hands/devteam): fifth-pass — crash prevention
1. Guard empty repo_url: stop and tell user to configure it
2. Add python3 to requires (all JSON parsing depends on it)
3. Engineer git config user.name/email on first clone (prevents commit rejection)
4. Explicit build/lint/test commands per tech stack (Rust/TS/Python/Go/Java/Swift)
5. event_publish on task completion so user gets notified
6. Global rule: check API HTTP status before parsing JSON
* feat(hands/devteam): add gh CLI / MCP / curl API three-layer fallback
- Add GitHub MCP integration (mcp_servers = ["github"])
- Add gh CLI as optional requirement (preferred over curl)
- All 3 agents: gh > MCP > curl priority for GitHub operations
- Add issue_tracker setting (github/linear/jira)
- Add agent_list to shared tools
- SKILL.md: add full gh CLI reference section
- i18n: add issue_tracker translation
* feat(hands/devteam): full MCP/integration/notification layer
MCP allowlist: github, linear, jira, sentry, slack, discord
- Sentry: Engineer reads crash reports/stack traces when fixing bugs
- Slack/Discord: PM posts status updates (triaged, completed, QA results)
- Linear/Jira: alternative issue trackers
New settings: notify_channel (none/slack/discord), issue_tracker (github/linear/jira)
New optional requires: npx (MCP runtime), SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN
PM prompt: notification section, channel-aware status posting
Engineer prompt: Sentry context lookup for bug fixes
i18n: added translations for new settings
* feat(hands/devteam): workflows, onboarding, knowledge, standup, rollback
Workflows (8 integrated):
- PM: bug-triage, product-spec, weekly-report, incident-postmortem
- Engineer: code-review, test-generation, refactor-plan, api-design
- QA: code-review, test-generation
New capabilities:
- Repo onboarding: first activation analyzes repo structure/stack/CI
- Knowledge accumulation: store lessons per issue, detect module hotspots
- Daily standup: cron schedule, board summary via notify_channel
- Rollback: gh pr revert + postmortem workflow + re-open issue
Also:
- Added workflow_run to tools, skills = [] (all allowed)
- Rewrote README with full architecture, lifecycle, workflow table
- PM prompt now has 15 sections covering full lifecycle
* feat(hands/devteam): per-agent capabilities, resources, profiles, fallbacks
Each agent now has full AgentManifest config (not just system_prompt):
PM:
- profile: automation
- capabilities: web, memory, schedule, knowledge, event, workflow, agent_send
- shell: gh, curl, cat, python3
- resources: 200k tokens/hr
Engineer:
- profile: coding
- capabilities: file r/w, shell, web, memory, knowledge, workflow
- shell: cargo, npm, python, go, swift, mvn, git, gh, docker, make
- resources: 300k tokens/hr, 10 concurrent tools
- network: * (needs to push to GitHub)
QA:
- profile: coding (read-heavy, no file_write)
- capabilities: file read, shell (test/lint commands only), web, workflow
- shell: cargo test/clippy/audit, npm test, pytest, go test, gh
- resources: 150k tokens/hr
All agents have fallback_models configured.
* feat(hands/devteam): rewrite with proper resource composition
First hand to use the new composition features:
Agents:
- PM: base=planner, capabilities restricted to gh/git shell only
- Engineer: base=coder, full shell access, network=*
- QA: base=code-reviewer, tool_blocklist=[file_write], test/lint shells only
Composition:
- base: inherit from agents/planner, agents/coder, agents/code-reviewer
- mcp_servers: github (agents interact via MCP, not curl in prompts)
- workflows: bug-triage, code-review, test-generation via workflow_run tool
- plugins: todo-tracker, auto-summarizer, episodic-memory
- per-agent skills: SKILL-pm.md, SKILL-engineer.md, SKILL-qa.md
- per-agent capabilities: QA can't write files, PM can't run builds
Prompts are clean and focused (role + methodology + principles),
not stuffed with curl commands. GitHub interaction goes through
MCP tools or gh CLI.
* fix(devteam): complete planner methodology in PM prompt
Added SCOPE/SEQUENCE/RISK/MILESTONE keywords from the planner
base template's methodology into the PM's triage workflow.
* docs: update hands README, fix repo_url reference in prompts
- hands/README.md: document full composition model (base, MCP, workflows,
plugins, per-agent skills, per-agent capabilities)
- Updated hand count to 15 (added devteam)
- Engineer prompt: clarify repo_url comes from User Configuration, not
a template variable
- PM prompt: same clarification
* fix(devteam): override name/description from base templates
Without explicit name, agents inherit base names (planner/coder/code-reviewer)
instead of hand-specific names (pm/engineer/qa). This affects display and
the prefixed name used in agent registry (devteam:pm vs devteam:planner).
* style: format HAND.toml with taplo
The researcher hand was trying to call memory_list but lacked the capability,
causing 'Tool execution failed: Permission denied' errors.
This fix adds memory_list to the tools list in the researcher hand's HAND.toml.
Fixes: librefang/librefang#1774
Add [i18n.zh.agents.*] sections to all 15 HAND.toml files,
providing Chinese translations for agent names and descriptions.
Total: 51 agent translations across 15 hands.
Add [i18n.zh], [i18n.zh-TW], [i18n.ja], [i18n.ko], [i18n.de], [i18n.es]
sections with translated descriptions to:
- 15 Hand TOML files (hands/*/HAND.toml)
- 44 Channel TOML files (channels/*.toml)
This enables the website to display localized Hand and Channel descriptions
based on the user's selected language.
* fix(validate): check for [agents] instead of [agent] in HAND.toml
All 14 hands use [agents.main] (plural) for multi-agent config,
but the validator was checking for [agent] (singular), causing
all hands to fail validation.
* fix(routing): resolve 19 routing alias collisions
Agent is a sub-unit of hand, so hands take priority for routing.
Remove conflicting aliases from agent side when hand already owns them.
- analyst: remove data analysis, analyze data, dashboard (owned by hand/analytics)
- data-scientist: remove statistical analysis, forecast, prediction (owned by hand/analytics, hand/predictor)
- sales-assistant: remove prospecting, sales, pipeline (owned by hand/lead, hand/devops)
- devops-lead: remove incident response, kubernetes, terraform (owned by hand/devops)
- researcher: remove deep research, research, literature review (owned by hand/researcher)
- academic-researcher: remove literature review, systematic review (owned by hand/researcher)
- social-media: remove duplicate content calendar from weak_aliases
- hand/collector: remove competitive analysis (owned by hand/strategist)
Remove git conflict markers from linkedin, reddit, and twitter
HAND.toml and SKILL.md files. Keep the more complete version
(with new settings i18n translations) and fix French/Spanish
accent issues (dépasser, entraîner, média, réponse, conexión,
imágenes, Mode de croissance).
- Fix French accent characters (é/è/ê/ç/â/ô) across all 14 HAND.toml files
- Fix German special characters (ä/ö/ü/ß) across all 14 HAND.toml files
- Add category translations to all 6 i18n language blocks in all 14 hands
- Enhance SKILL.md content for 9 hands with practical examples and workflows
- Trim bloated SKILL.md files (apitester 1400→892, devops 1301→870)
- Rewrite root README.md with accurate stats, complete hand/integration tables
- Update hands/README.md with full 14-hand listing and i18n documentation
Expand from ~124 to ~816 lines covering navigation, form handling,
screenshots, JavaScript execution, error handling patterns, and
best practices for the browser automation hand.
- Add version = "1.0.0" to all 14 hands
- Add approval_mode toggle to clip and devops hands (queue actions
for user review before executing)
- Strengthen routing aliases for analytics, apitester, browser,
collector, devops, lead, predictor, researcher, strategist
* chore: remove router agent
builtin:router has been replaced by LLM intent routing in the kernel.
Assistant is now the sole entry point — see librefang/librefang#1336.
