Agenthood Release Digest — September 10, 2026

Date: September 10, 2026
Author: Agenthood Team

We shipped two releases this week. v3.63.0 introduces several new CLI commands and workflow improvements, and v3.63.1 follows up with fixes to the release tooling itself.

v3.63.0 — September 9, 2026

This release adds four new CLI commands, a scheduled rituals workflow, and integrity checks for skill discovery.

New CLI commands

  • cost: The new agenthood cost command prints a per-provider and per-member cost breakdown. We also cleaned up the command's test setup, including a missing afterEach import and some unused variables.
  • doctor: The new agenthood doctor command runs comprehensive diagnostics to help you catch configuration or environment issues early.
  • rotate-key: The new agenthood rotate-key command rotates API keys with hot-reload support, so credentials can be updated without restarting agents.

Rituals

  • ritual: The agenthood ritual command implements a scheduled rituals workflow. You can now define rituals that run on a schedule, making recurring agent tasks easier to automate.

Skills

  • integrity verification: SkillDiscovery now verifies skill integrity when loading skills, adding a safety check against corrupted or tampered skill files.
  • verify --conflicts: The verify command gains a --conflicts flag to detect overlapping skill descriptions, helping you spot ambiguous or redundant definitions.

Release and quality fixes

  • release: semantic-release is now kept as a peer dependency and installed before the pending check, which should make release runs more reliable.
  • vitest: The cost command is excluded from the coverage gate while it stabilizes.

v3.63.1 — September 9, 2026

This patch release fixes two issues in the release tooling itself.

  • release: Herald compute now routes through a file, keeping stdout JSON-only and preventing log output from interfering with JSON parsing.
  • release: The herald notes artifact is no longer tracked; the changelog-derived view remains the source of truth.

What's Next

The new commands and integrity checks give you more visibility into agent operations and make it easier to automate recurring work. We'll continue to refine the cost and diagnostics tooling in upcoming releases.
