v3.0.2 Ionic

Released: 2026-05-07

A patch update on the Ionic line. Three notable additions — a Linear forge provider with hybrid GitHub fallback, an opt-in Bridge Mode for Tower, and a documentation governance pass that converts the architecture-documenter agent into a discoverable skill — plus a handful of bug fixes.

New (opt-in)

Hybrid forges: Linear issue tracking with GitHub PR fallback (#716, #719)

The forge layer now supports partial provider implementations. Linear-for-issues + GitHub-for-PRs is the canonical hybrid: a Linear provider supplies six issue concepts (auth-status, user-identity, issue-view, issue-list, issue-comment, recently-closed) while PR concepts fall through to GitHub.

The architectural improvement that unlocks this: buildPresetFromScripts now omits missing concepts instead of writing null, so unimplemented concepts cascade to the default provider. This benefits any partial-provider scenario, not just Linear.

Also in this work:

  • Issue identifiers are widened to string | number throughout the agent-farm CLI, type system, and DB layer (so ENG-123 works alongside 42)
  • db_builders.issue_number migrated from INTEGERTEXT
  • Forge config non-concept keys (e.g., linear-team) are exported to provider scripts as CODEV_LINEAR_TEAM

Configure in .codev/config.json:

{
  "forge": {
    "provider": "linear",
    "linear-team": "ENG"
  }
}

Set LINEAR_API_KEY in your environment.

Bridge Mode for Tower (#721)

Tower now has an opt-in path for binding to non-localhost addresses, intended for container-bridging scenarios where Tower runs inside a sandboxed Docker environment and the host browser/CLI needs to reach it.

Two environment variables, both required to expose Tower beyond localhost:

  • BRIDGE_MODE=1 — explicit opt-in flag. Without it, Tower binds to 127.0.0.1 regardless of other settings.
  • BRIDGE_TOWER_HOST — bind address when bridge mode is enabled (e.g. 0.0.0.0). Only consulted when BRIDGE_MODE=1. Accepts 127.0.0.1, 0.0.0.0, localhost, valid IPv4 literals, and bracketed IPv6 literals.

When bridge mode is enabled, Tower logs a startup warning. Tower has no built-in authentication — if you enable bridge mode, your firewall is the security boundary.

For remote access without container bridging, cloud.codevos.ai remains the recommended path.

Documentation governance (#723)

The architecture-documenter agent has been retired and replaced by an update-arch-docs skill, propagated to all projects via codev update. The MAINTAIN protocol now carries a "Lives where" routing matrix and an audit-then-update split (Step 3a / Step 3b) with concrete pruning checklists for arch.md and lessons-learned.md. The SPIR review phase now name-drops the skill and includes lessons-learned.md alongside arch.md.

Templates also picked up the discipline:

  • templates/arch.md is a richer multi-section starter (TL;DR, Repository Layout & Stack, Per-Subsystem Mechanism, Apps Roster, Packages Roster, Verified-Wrong Assumptions, Updating This Document) with skip-if-N/A framing for small projects
  • templates/lessons-learned.md gains a preface with "what NOT to add" guidance and a sanity-check checklist

The shipped templates resolve at runtime from the installed npm package; existing projects continue using their own arch.md and can opt into the richer template by manual copy.

Bug fixes

  • #717 — afx attach can't find builders (PR #720): findShellperSocket now queries SQLite by workspace root, with fallback to Tower's terminal_sessions
  • #712 — Stale af CLI references in resource docs after the afafx rename (PR #713)
  • #711 — porch lacked --version flag and pending command (PR #714)
  • #710 — E2E tests depended on removed porch run orchestrator (PR #715)
  • #725 — Bridge mode test misclassified as unit test in CI (PR #726): renamed to bridge-mode.e2e.test.ts

Breaking changes

None.

Migration

npm install -g @cluesmith/codev@3.0.2
afx tower stop && afx tower start

The new update-arch-docs skill lands automatically via codev update on existing projects. The user-global ~/.claude/agents/architecture-documenter.md agent file (if present) should be removed, since the skill replaces it.

Install

npm install -g @cluesmith/codev@3.0.2
