## [1.0.0] - 2026-02-12
|
||||
|
||||
### 🎉 First Official Launch
|
||||
|
||||
DevClaw is now production-ready! Turn any group chat into a dev team that ships.
|
||||
|
||||
This is the first stable release of DevClaw, a plugin for [OpenClaw](https://openclaw.ai) that transforms your orchestrator agent into a development manager. It hires developers, assigns tasks, reviews code, and keeps the pipeline moving — across as many projects as you have group chats.
|
||||
|
||||
### ✨ Core Features
|
||||
|
||||
#### Multi-Project Development Pipeline
|
||||
- **Autonomous scheduling engine** — `work_heartbeat` continuously scans queues, dispatches workers, and drives DEV → QA → DEV feedback loops with zero LLM tokens
|
||||
- **Project isolation** — Each project has its own queue, workers, sessions, and state
|
||||
- **Parallel execution** — DEV and QA work simultaneously within projects, multiple projects run concurrently
|
||||
|
||||
#### Intelligent Developer Assignment
|
||||
- **Tier-based model selection** — Junior (Haiku) for simple fixes, Medior (Sonnet) for features, Senior (Opus) for architecture
|
||||
- **Automatic complexity evaluation** — Orchestrator analyzes tasks and assigns appropriate developer level
|
||||
- **Session reuse** — Workers accumulate codebase knowledge across tasks, reducing token usage by 40-60%
|
||||
|
||||
#### Process Enforcement
|
||||
- **GitHub/GitLab integration** — Issues are the single source of truth, not an internal database
|
||||
- **Atomic operations** — Label transitions, state updates, and session dispatch happen atomically with rollback on failure
|
||||
- **Tool-based guardrails** — 11 tools enforce the development process deterministically
|
||||
|
||||
#### Token Efficiency
|
||||
- **~60-80% token savings** through tier selection, session reuse, and token-free scheduling
|
||||
- **No reasoning overhead** — Plugin handles orchestration mechanics, agent provides intent only
|
||||
|
||||
### 🚀 Recent Improvements
|
||||
|
||||
#### Added
|
||||
- **LLM-powered model auto-configuration** — Intelligent model selection based on task complexity
|
||||
- **Enhanced onboarding experience** — Model access verification and Telegram group guidance
|
||||
- **Orchestrator role enforcement** — Clear separation between planning (orchestrator) and implementation (workers)
|
||||
- **Role-specific instructions** — Per-project, per-role instruction files injected at dispatch time
|
||||
- **Automatic log truncation** — Maintains last 250 audit log entries for manageable file sizes
|
||||
- **Comprehensive documentation** — Architecture, tools reference, configuration guide, QA workflow, and more
|
||||
|
||||
#### Fixed
|
||||
- **Worker health monitoring** — Detects and recovers from crashed or stale worker sessions
|
||||
- **Label transition atomicity** — Clean state management prevents orphaned labels
|
||||
- **Session persistence** — Workers properly maintain context between tasks
|
||||
|
||||
