Weekly Update – October 12, 2026

Oct 12, 2026

Five releases shipped in github/gh-aw this week, from v0.91.4 to v0.91.8. The themes: smarter model routing, new engine options, and sturdier sandboxes.

Release Highlights

v0.91.8

Agent sessions now render as full elapsed-time timelines, with consistent trace normalization across Copilot, Codex, Claude, Gemini, Pi, Kiro, Aider and AGY.

Built-in graders: a new code-read-precision trajectory grader and builtin grader defaults loaded from setup-action JSON.
Model routing: Copilot wire APIs are selected from AWF metadata and model mismatches are surfaced. The firewall moved to v0.28.51.
Hardening: a custom grader sandbox escape was closed, and workflow YAML, scanner file handling and temp-file writes were tightened.
Memory validation: declarative JSON schema validation for memory, with repairable invalid repo-memory baselines.

v0.91.7

This release introduces a native Go Agy engine (#66998) and deprecates the Gemini engine in its favor (#66941), so plan to migrate Gemini workflows.

Work queue upgrades: priority-aware conformance dispatch (#67222) and scoped GitHub Issues mirrors (#67025).
Better model visibility: routed model and effort are reported across outputs (#66963), plus per-agent spend (#66961).
Secret detection now covers all AWF environment sources (#67017).

v0.91.6

Git-backed fair DAG work queues with claim-scoped effects (#66024).
Model routing across Claude, Codex, and pi (#66723).
Stricter pull_request_target checkouts via an explicit strict-mode policy (#66649).

v0.91.5

Ordered engine model fallback keeps workflows running when a preferred model is unavailable (#66593).
auto and copilot/auto models now work in Pi, Codex, and Claude (#66567).
New gh aw fix codemods for Copilot web-fetch and reserved inputs (#66556).

v0.91.4

v0.91.4 adds support for Claude Code with GitHub Copilot inference and local-first workflow debugging.

Agent of the Week: unbloat-docs

Documentation Unbloat reviews the docs and simplifies verbose pages while keeping them clear and complete.

This week it ran every night on its schedule at about 01:15 UTC. All three runs we looked at (October 10, 11 and 12) succeeded, taking between 7 and 10 minutes and producing one safe output each.

Its stated mission is to make docs shorter, so it spends its nights trimming words, which is a bit like a barber who works only while you sleep.

Usage tip: Pair a scheduled editor like this with a /unbloat slash command so you can also trim a specific page on demand.
