v1.8.0 (2026-05-26)

Host-Scoped Aegis Updates

• Added aegis:update as an explicit user-triggered update workflow for
  installed Aegis method packs.
• Added scripts/aegis-update.py with host-scoped installation registration,
  status readback, dry-run support, and explicit --all handling for users who
  want to update every registered host.
• Preserved predictable multi-host behavior: a plain update targets the current
  or explicitly selected host, while all-host updates require an explicit
  request.
• Kept automatic background updates out of the default path. The registry can
  record updateMode, but the method pack does not become a daemon, runtime
  core, or final update authority.

Install And Documentation Updates

• Added an update-aegis skill that routes aegis:update requests through the
  host-scoped registry rather than re-discovering every install from scratch.
• Updated Codex install guidance to register the Codex host, verify the
  discovery root, and update through aegis-update.py update --host codex.
• Updated the root READMEs, compatibility snapshot, and known limitations to
  describe the new explicit update behavior and its multi-host boundary.
• Refreshed Cursor and Windsurf skill counts and skill tables so their install
  guides match the current method-pack skill set.
