These 11 templates are the general-purpose ones that don't depend on any
particular model at the primary level (`[model] provider = "default"`).
They also ship a secondary `[[fallback_models]]` block pointing at
`gemini-2.0-flash` with `api_key_env = "GEMINI_API_KEY"`.
That default hurts everyone who doesn't happen to have `$GEMINI_API_KEY`
set — every agent boot logs `WARN Fallback driver 'gemini' failed to
init: Missing API key`, once per turn per agent. The templates that
actually intend to use Gemini as their primary model (analyst, coder,
researcher, code-reviewer, debugger, legal-assistant, data-scientist,
academic-researcher, test-engineer) are left untouched — those
declare Gemini in `[model]`, which is an intentional design choice, not
a hidden fallback.
Users who want a Gemini fallback chain for generic agents can add
`[[fallback_models]]` themselves in `~/.librefang/workspaces/agents/...`
once they've set `$GEMINI_API_KEY`.

* 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.
* 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)
* 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.
