awslabs/aidlc-workflows v2.9.0

AI-DLC 2.9.0

on GitHub

Summary

AI-DLC 2.9.0 updates the Classic workflow, adds commit provenance and intent archiving, and fixes Construction autonomy persistence and advisory review retries.

This release also separates native installer assets from manual-copy runtimes, adds the preview release channel, and makes provider setup harness-specific.

Upgrade

aidlc update
cd /path/to/project
aidlc doctor
aidlc config --yes

No manual state migration is required. Existing Classic intents keep their recorded stage graph. New Classic intents use the 18-stage v1 flow. Use the workshop scope when you need the previous Classic flow with CI Pipeline and Operation stages.

Manual-copy users must replace the complete runtime/<harness>/ tree from aidlc-copy-runtime-2.9.0.tar.gz.

Highlights

Workflow and lifecycle

• New Classic intents use the 18-stage v1 flow through Build and Test. Ceremony settings are scope-owned and support per-intent overrides.
• /aidlc intent archive <name> retires an unfinished intent without deleting its record or audit trail. /aidlc intent unarchive <name> restores it.
• Construction autonomy supports on-demand grants and revocations. The choice persists in older workflow records.
• aidlc engine orchestrate wait adds a bounded, read-only wait for collaborators, artifacts, and reviews.

Review and provenance

• aidlc attest resolve maps commits and diff ranges to reviewed Units. aidlc attest anchor records commit pointers in the audit trail.
• Advisory review retries now use the engine's current ordinal after a rejected gate, avoiding false REVIEW_BUDGET_EXHAUSTED stops.
• Review bookkeeping stays in review records and audit data instead of becoming artifact content or reviewer findings.
• The adversarial AI pull-request review workflow is available to repository maintainers for same-repository PRs.

Configuration and releases

• Kiro CLI and Kiro IDE no longer ask for a model provider because model access comes with Kiro. Other harnesses offer Amazon Bedrock or the current provider.
• Kiro IDE read tools remain available during Code Generation Plan Approval recovery while mutation paths remain guarded.
• Native installers use aidlc-runtime-2.9.0.tar.gz. Manual-copy installations use aidlc-copy-runtime-2.9.0.tar.gz.
• Versioned installers now install the release that carries them, including previews. Multiple changed commits publish previews on the same UTC date.
