Loom logs its own development the way it logs your build. There is no separate changelog — this page is the running record, transcribed from Loom's own status. As of 2026-06-22.

shipped works end-to-end

The build job type runs end-to-end with real coding agents — verified on throwaway repos (a calc and a strutil module). The full spine, each step grounded in a gate Loom runs itself:

planner → gate-builder → per-sprint execute → gate → fix → investigate/stop → review → re-gate → commit → merge

candour is the credibility
Loom grounds every agent result in a gate rather than the agent's self-report — and this page turns that same ethic on the project itself: it states plainly what works, dates what shipped, and names its own gaps without flinching.
recently landed
2026-06-22Pluggable harnesses — four CLIs behind a selectable seam (claude, codex, opencode, gemini), chosen per role; per-harness config and auth probes. (Remaining: a human-driven live cross-harness run.)
2026-06-22The dedicated gate-builder stage.
2026-06-22Path/dir plan sources and content-hash run identity.
2026-06-22The conflict-resolver double-merge fix (resolve inside the worktree, restore main on failure).
2026-06-22Graceful abort + SIGINT reaping.
2026-06-22.env.loom headless auth and log hygiene.
2026-06-22LOOM_PLAN_EFFORT and the commit-failure audit.
2026-06-22A money-free end-to-end smoke test.
2026-06-22Mouse-wheel scrolling, the card-detail / live-session view, and per-stage card & session metrics.
2026-06-22The worktree-confinement sandbox (read-only main checkout).
2026-06-22Transient-retry with backoff, window-title progress, wall-clock-timeout salvage and the no-progress guard.
2026-06-22Milestone decomposition as the default driver.
known gaps
gap Headless auth on a fresh machine without an inherited keychain login — untested but accepted as minor (the .env.loom/token bootstrap is in place).
gap A manual live cross-harness run is the one remaining harness verification step.
