Highlights

Aegis v1.6.6 strengthens the method pack around clearer onboarding, broader structural host coverage, complexity-aware workflow discipline, and more stable repair judgment.

README and install guidance

  • Streamlined the English and Chinese root READMEs into compact user-facing entry points.
  • Reframed Aegis as a baseline-first, evidence-driven method-pack upgrade for AI coding agents.
  • Replaced separate minimal install and update prompts with one install-or-update prompt that asks the agent to detect the current host, install or update Aegis, reload when needed, and verify from the installed method-pack root.
  • Moved optional lite global rules into dedicated English and Chinese files.

Host compatibility

  • Added structural host guidance for OpenClaw and Hermes Agent.
  • Documented individual SKILL.md skill-directory install paths, update steps, doctor verification, activation-mode caveats, and authority-boundary reminders.
  • Updated the compatibility matrix, known limitations, release checklist, prompt-hygiene boundary, current docs index, and README host lists.
  • Added popular-agent-host-boundary-check.sh to keep OpenClaw and Hermes Agent support structural until fresh release-level host smoke exists.

Complexity and repair discipline

  • Expanded complexity governance into a three-stage advisory flow: Plan-Time Complexity Check, Pre-Edit Complexity Check, and completion-time Complexity Governance Suggestion.
  • Updated planning, debugging, TDD, execution, and completion skills so agents can choose safer owner/file boundaries before editing code and report useful follow-up recommendations after the diff exists.
  • Tightened Minimal Necessary Change into Minimal Sufficient Stable Repair: the smallest acceptable repair is the smallest sufficient fix at the correct owner and abstraction layer, not the smallest textual diff.
  • Added a Minimality Check for fallback, guard, adapter, special-case, or duplicate-owner repairs so local patches remain bounded mitigations with retention reasons and retirement triggers.

Workflow quality coverage

  • Added representative workflow-quality samples for plan-time complexity, pre-edit complexity, completion-time governance suggestions, and minimal sufficient repair.
  • Extended e2e checks for workflow-quality contracts, first-principles repair classification, debugging patch-shape gates, install verification policy, activation-mode host caveats, and goal-framing host documentation coverage.
  • Preserved the method-pack boundary: these are advisory workflow disciplines only and do not grant authoritative GateDecision, PolicySnapshot, publish approval, or completion authority.
