Role separation graduated from prompt framing to a harness guarantee: a planner phase cannot write product files, an executor cannot touch .plans/** or its own spec, and a critic cannot write anything — enforced by code, not by asking nicely.

An expensive session hitting /work used to have two options on small/mid Preferred work: skip it and leave the backlog stuck, or quietly do it anyway at full cost. There's now a third: check whether something cheaper can actually take it, and say so explicitly.

Operators can now keep an app on current Anchor, register the CLI, and size lean local models — from the coding agent, without memorizing flag soup.

Multiple agents on one repo no longer have to fight over a single HEAD. Each worker can own a git worktree under var/worktrees/<agent-id>/.

Two refinements to the .plans/ workflow: ready plans can now carry an explicit Priority that orders them ahead of the coarse Value field, and fresh drafts are private by default so a half-baked plan never lands in a commit before you mean it to.

Coding agents can now list, claim, and complete plans for one project through a limited MCP surface — without full shell, silent promote, or unbounded spend.

Mythos-core rule 7 says an executor may only touch the files listed in its task spec. Until now that was a promise the model made to itself. scripts/scope_gate.py makes it a check: any change outside the spec's ## Files in scope is rejected before tests run.
