v3.2.25: the installer fails cleanly and stays out of your home

on GitHub

A broken installer now says why, and the smoke test no longer touches your real home.

antislop-ai 3.2.25 requires Node.js 20.12 or newer. The prompt library imports util.styleText, added in Node 20.12.0, so an older Node used to stop inside node_modules with a SyntaxError that named nothing useful.

Node 20.12, said in one line

• The prompts load only when the wizard starts. --version, --mode, and --update never touch them, so they keep working on an older Node.
• The check names both sides. One line with the version required and the version found, instead of a stack trace.
• CI runs the smoke test on 20.12.0, so the floor stays true.

Repairs from the community

• No pointer in the home folder. Picking "This project" from your home folder no longer writes ~/CLAUDE.md. From #48.
• A real npm package page. The package ships the README and LICENSE. From #51.
• A smoke test with its own home. It gets a throwaway home at launch, so no runtime can write into the real one. From #52.

Also in this release

• The core skill stops carrying install steps. skills/antislop/SKILL.md drops the single-file wizard, about 7 KB that no skill route runs. antislop.md keeps it for the single-file route. From #54 and #55.
• Roo moves to not planned. The project was archived on 15 May 2026, and its last release already reads .agents/skills. From #53.
• Every version surface moves together: the six plugin manifests, the root package, the cli package and its lock, the banner, the contrast MCP server, and VERSION.

Updating is unchanged:

npx antislop-ai --update

A plugin keeps its own copy, so update it from its marketplace. The guide has the command for each door.

Thanks to @habibiahmada for #52, and @fajarhide for #51, #54, and #55.
