v0.11.4

• Clean output by default: just 'Thinking...' and 'Searching codebase...'
• --verbose flag shows full planning, tool calls, verifier, critic logs
• --quiet suppresses everything
• Non-code questions keep project context, skip codebase search

v0.11.3

• Fix: non-code questions retain project context (workspace, symbols, past sessions) while skipping codebase search
• 'what's next in phase 2' now gives project-aware answers without hallucinating from irrelevant file searches

v0.11.2

• Fix: jam ask no longer enters codebase search mode for non-code questions
• General/strategy/planning questions now answered directly without tool loops

v0.11.1

• Bridge file (~/.jam/copilot-bridge.json) for reliable Copilot detection in any terminal
• jam models set command to set default model
• Default Copilot model auto-detected from VSCode
• Windows CI test fixes

v0.11.0 — Windows Support

Windows Compatibility

Jam now works on Windows (PowerShell, cmd.exe, VSCode terminal).

• jam ports — Windows netstat support
• jam vibes — pure Node.js, no Unix shell commands
• jam completion — PowerShell tab completion
• Sandbox — cmd.exe on Windows
• Path display — normalized separators
• npx/npm — .cmd shim resolution on Windows
• Process signals — cross-platform termination

CI

• Windows added to CI matrix
• Homebrew formula auto-updates on release

v0.10.0 — Jam has a personality

Jam has a personality

Jam is no longer a generic AI assistant. It is now the senior dev who has seen everything — direct, opinionated, and warm without being corporate.

Personality across all touchpoints

• JAM_SOUL — central personality definition prepended to all AI system prompts
• System prompts — ask, chat, run, go, planner, worker all speak with jam voice
• Command prompts — trace, verify, commit AI prompts updated
• Error messages — all 25 error hints rewritten to be empathetic and actionable
• Status messages — run and go progress output is direct and concise
• jam doctor — conversational output (Checking your setup... You are good to go.)
• jam init — welcoming first-run (Welcome to Jam. Let me figure out what you have got...)
• Fortune cookies — 8 new developer wisdoms in jam vibes

Fixes

• All ESLint errors resolved (CI was failing on lint)
• tree-sitter parser handles grammar loading failures gracefully
• TypeScript extractor findEnclosingFunction correctly skips variable_declarator for plain assignments
• SQL tests fall back to regex mode when tree-sitter-sql grammar is ABI-incompatible

v0.9.0 — Agent Engine: Orchestrator, Parallel Workers, Workspace Intelligence

Agent Engine

Jam now has a full autonomous agent engine powering both jam go (interactive console) and jam run (one-shot).

Highlights

• Orchestrator — Decomposes tasks into subtasks with a dependency graph, dispatches parallel workers, merges results
• Parallel Workers — Independent subtasks run concurrently (up to 3 by default, configurable with --workers)
• Workspace Intelligence — Profiles your project code style, test patterns, naming conventions, and frameworks before writing code. Cached in .jam/workspace-profile.json
• Tiered Permissions — Commands classified as safe/moderate/dangerous with automatic approval or confirmation
• OS Sandbox — sandbox-exec (macOS) / unshare/firejail (Linux) restricts filesystem access to workspace
• Multimodal Input — --image flag for vision-capable models (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Ollama/llava)
• File-Lock Protocol — Prevents parallel workers from conflicting on shared files, with deadlock detection

New Commands & Flags

• jam go — Interactive agent console with /stop, /status, /help, /exit
• jam go --auto — Fully autonomous mode
• jam run --auto — Autonomous one-shot (implies --yes)
• --workers <n> — Max parallel workers
• --image <path> — Attach image for vision models
• --no-sandbox — Disable OS-level sandbox
• --file <path> — Read task from file (jam run)
• JAM_LEGACY_RUN=1 — Fallback to pre-0.9 run behavior

Stats

• 28 new files in src/agent/
• 158 new tests (811 total)
• Zero new dependencies

v0.8.7 — jam go: Interactive Agent Mode

New Features

• jam go — Claude Code-like interactive agent session
  • Full write tools: write_file, apply_patch, run_command, git operations
  • Reads your codebase, plans changes, writes code, runs tests
  • Permission enforcement via toolPolicy config
  • Streaming output with tool execution indicators
  • Session persistence
  • Ctrl+C to interrupt, double Ctrl+C to exit

Bug Fixes

• verify, diff, review, commit, patch now work with Copilot proxy (removed incorrect tool-support guard)
• Only jam run requires tool-calling provider support

v0.8.6 — Fix: verify, diff, review, commit, patch work with Copilot proxy

Bug Fixes

• Removed incorrect tool-support guard from verify, diff, review, commit, and patch commands
• These commands only use streaming (not tool calling) and now work correctly with the Copilot proxy backend
• Only jam run retains the tool-support guard since it actually uses tool calling

v0.8.5 — VSCode Context: explain this, selection, git root

New Features

• jam explain with no args uses the active VSCode editor file
• jam explain this works naturally in VSCode terminal
• Selected text in VSCode editor is explained when using jam explain
• All git commands (jam review, jam commit, jam diff, etc.) now resolve the correct git root from the active editor file — fixes 'Failed to determine current branch' errors in multi-repo workspaces
• New /v1/context endpoint on the VSCode proxy server

Bug Fixes

• jam doctor shows keytar/ripgrep as warnings [!] instead of failures [x]
• Copilot adapter lazily initializes — all commands work without explicit validateCredentials()
