v8.53.0 — Agent Ergonomics

on GitHub

Cursor-inspired agent ergonomics improvements:

New Features

• readonly: true frontmatter — Add readonly: true to any agent persona .md file to enforce read-only tool policy (blocks Write/Edit/Bash modifications). Implemented via get_agent_readonly() with awk-based frontmatter parsing. backend-architect added as live example.
• User-scope agents (~/.claude/agents/) — Personal agent personas placed in ~/.claude/agents/*.md are automatically discovered for description lookup and agent listing. Plugin agents take precedence on name collision.
• /octo:resume <agent-id> — Resume a previous Claude agent by transcript ID. Wraps resume_agent() via new agent-resume dispatch case. Requires CC v2.1.55+ with Agent Teams.

Internal

• get_agent_readonly() — awk-based YAML frontmatter parser (not head -20 | grep) to avoid false positives
• apply_persona() 4th param, apply_tool_policy() 3rd param for readonly threading
• spawn_agent() pre-computes curated_name_early before apply_persona call
• OpenClaw registry rebuilt (89 entries)
• 39 commands, 50 skills, 82/82 tests passing
