v0.7.2 release notes

v0.7.2 leans Modulatio further into its conversation-first shape: the LEADER tab is where work gets resolved, so the dedicated approve/deny surfaces retire and the Leader handles approvals in conversation. Plus a Job-Template library, a chat that takes attachments, a Leader constitution, and built-in bug reporting. Reviewed fresh by two independent reviewers (hull + coherence).

Approvals move into the Leader conversation

You used to approve a paused plan or a budget continuation by clicking a button in the Plans/Tickets tab. Now you tell the Leader — “approve the budget”, “yes, go ahead”, “no, redo it” — and he carries it out. Pending approvals surface in his awareness; he applies your decision and it lands in the audit log. The orange PROBLEM lamp still lights when something needs your attention, and an awaiting ticket’s preview points you to the LEADER tab.

The Tickets tab is now a read-only audit log — what happened, who decided, the transition history. It no longer decides anything itself; that’s the Leader’s conversation. (Telegram and CLI approval — modulatio project approve — are unchanged.)

This is the point of the conversation-first move: one place to resolve work (talk to the Leader), and the tabs become places to browse and audit.

The PLANS tab is now the JT Library

The old read-only Plans tab is retired; its slot now hosts a Job-Template library browser — search the templates the Leader has codified (the Alfred loop) or you’ve authored, and read each one’s parameters, output contract, and interview. Plan objects still live in the engine; you watch a running plan on the TEAM floor and steer it by talking to the Leader.

Attachments in the Leader chat

The LEADER chatbox gains 📎 / 🖼 buttons. Hand the Leader a document (it’s inlined into the conversation so he can read it) or an image (he sees it via the multimodal path) — the same way the KICK OFF box already took attachments.

A constitution for the conversational Leader

The Leader now carries a constitution — a user-editable document of values (honesty, diligence, harm-avoidance, respect) that shapes how he talks and partners with you. It’s injected only into his conversational persona, not the producer/QC or decompose/verify prompts — the values are about how the Leader works with you, not about job decomposition rules.

A sensible default ships. Copy it to <shared>/constitution.md (or <project>/constitution.md) and edit it to make it yours — your version wins.

Built-in bug reporting

A new /bug command opens a form (title, what happened, steps) with an “attach diagnostics” toggle. It files a GitHub issue directly when you’ve set MODULATIO_GITHUB_TOKEN (your own PAT), or opens a prefilled new-issue URL when you haven’t — so it works with no account. The diagnostics bundle is redacted: version, runtime, your models with auth-type + availability (never a key value), opt-in toggles as set/unset, and recent crash-log filenames. No secret ever reaches the issue body.

Also

The dead QUEUE tab is removed (the Heartbeat queue engine is untouched).
