- first public baseline release of
aoa-agentsas the repository that owns role contracts, handoff posture, memory posture, evaluation posture, and model-tier guidance at the agent layer - the current public surface now ships
5source-authored agent profiles,7model tiers,4cohort patterns, and7runtime seam bindings together with generated registries and consumer seams - this release keeps the agent layer bounded: an agent remains a role-bearing actor that uses adjacent skill, memo, eval, and playbook layers without absorbing their meaning
- community-docs baseline established for this repository
CHANGELOG.md,CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, andSECURITY.md- source-authored role, memory, evaluation, cohort, and runtime-seam docs across
CHARTER.md,docs/,profiles/,model_tiers/,cohort_patterns/, andruntime_seam/ - published registries and consumer seams under
generated/agent_registry.min.json,generated/model_tier_registry.json,generated/cohort_composition_registry.json, andgenerated/runtime_seam_bindings.json - schema-backed runtime artifact examples and local validation helpers under
schemas/,examples/, andscripts/
python scripts/build_published_surfaces.pypython scripts/validate_agents.py
- this release establishes the role layer as source-owned agent contract space, not as a replacement for skills, playbooks, memo objects, or eval doctrine
