What's new

Every release of this site, newest first, with what changed in it for readers: facts added, facts whose status changed, the briefings that moved and the sections that were rewritten. Releases you have not seen since your last visit are marked. To follow along, subscribe to the feed.

New evidence (for example the first confirmed compromise of a named organisation) reaches this page only once it has been captured into the evidence vault and turned into a fact with sources. Until then it is not on this site, however widely it is reported.

v0.22.24 · 26 October 2026new since your last visit

the six's instructions and the agents' brief at step B; the curator's refreshed evidence (454 sources) and the fact-check's correction, written in data; the press's build/ no longer hidden by its ignore file

Sections that changed

v0.22.23 · 26 October 2026new since your last visit

step B of the split: the pages are built in the chain's own box from the six repositories' sources; nothing depends on v1's repository any more

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.22 · 26 October 2026new since your last visit

the journalist's and the correspondent's records, written in team; story-site's review of the split as served, filed on the team site

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.21 · 26 October 2026new since your last visit

researcher: repositories field in the card (v1 today; team, data and press later), the round-1 debrief with its status, and the proposal for a three-phase source watch pass

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.20 · 26 October 2026new since your last visit

step A of the split: each repository holds its own sources and a sync carries them into v1's build; the brief for every agent says where each writes from its next wake; the first board row written in team (dev-0001)

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.19 · 26 October 2026new since your last visit

Journalist: card gets the repositories field and the tasks bound to this session

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.18 · 26 October 2026new since your last visit

The correspondent's card (the schedules page): the repositories field from the split brief, and its wakes now fire into its own session

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.17 · 26 October 2026new since your last visit

the curator's card carries the repositories field the split brief asks for (push: v1; after the move: team, data, v1), on the editor's instruction in the session of 26 October; its two scheduled tasks, both bound to this session with the card's prompt, re-enabled

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.16 · 26 October 2026new since your last visit

the first-day report: expectations for the run and the review, measured (v1's CI median 88 s and 1,809 files a release; the six 25 to 42 s; what the agents do all day and what each kind costs today and after the flip)

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.15 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

The restart after the split: WAKE.md step 0 for every scheduled agent (read the split brief on the team site, start no new work in v1, add the repositories field); the conductor's repositories

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.14 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

this repository is closing (the editor, 25 October): the note at the top of README and REALITY, and a board row; every agent reads the brief on the team site, starts no new work here, and after step A only dev's chain commits here

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.13 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

the six repositories are live (board 328 done): each deploys with v1's workflow and its own gate; checked live in a browser

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.12 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

the split's review recorded: items 23 to 33 of the challenges report (parity, the twins' links, the 404 page's redirect, immutability against the last commit, the tools' sha256, an independent read's findings), parity in the runbook, dev's debrief and status for the round

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.11 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

a review of the line and the router on the live site (board 334): the router is done; the line promises a shaped page the live pages do not deliver; three bands about the reader; the change log ends 22 October; eight fixes in order

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.10 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

the split, for every agent: a brief with where each member writes today, after the records and data move and after the cutover, the repositories its session needs and a card field for them; on a split site the 404 page sends an address another host owns (a twin, a view address, an asset, a data file) to that host, route.js allowing only the route's own hosts

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.9 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

The Sherpa's brief on interviews and outreach: three waves of people and organisations the site already maps, what each is given first, the topic, four formats, and the rules (board 331 to 334)

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.8 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

observability drained the telemetry lane on 25 October (150 events, the lane empty) with a new command-line drainer that publishes before it marks; its debrief on the member's page /admin/agents/observability/; board 330 (telemetry from local test servers, for dev)

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.7 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

the four reports on the split link each other, the proposal and the plan

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.6 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

one repository into six, in four reports on the briefs page: the first day in numbers, one source for every file (the design), the challenges, and how to work in it; dev's debrief of the round; the dates corrected to 25 October

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.5 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

one repository into six: one source for every file, recorded (the plan's Progress, REALITY, the board): press v1.0.4 serves the assets, data v0.1.4 the data, the four sites cut from v0.22.4 hold no copies; the main site is staged at site.php.oct.2026.newsroom.sgit.ai, its DNS record's name

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.4 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

the control room loads under a view address (/team/control/as/executive/ fetched team/control/data/control.json): control.js resolves its data against the page as loaded, and assets/route.js routes a URL object as it does a string, so on the split sites it reaches the data API

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.3 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

assets/route.js sends every data/ request on the split sites to the data API, which now publishes every file the pages' scripts fetch (v0.1.2); on this site nothing changes

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.2 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

one resolver for every URL a script builds (assets/route.js, loaded first on every page; boot.js, the Ask pane, the phone app and site tools use it), so that on the split sites assets come from the press, data from the data API and each section's pages from the site that owns it, one source for every file; on this site every URL resolves as before

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.1 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

pass one of the split, recorded: the press (v1.0.0) cuts this site's built pages at d9af616ffd0b into four sites (site 230 pages, refs 563, updates 60, team 242), each with a redirect at every address another site owns, its own gate and the runtime its pages load; data v0.1.1 at the same commit; team's records under records/; none deployed yet (each repository's Pages source to set to its dev branch)

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.22.0 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

the line is live on every page in place of the two dials, and the router: /agencies/as/security/ opens the agencies for Security, every page keeps its view in the address bar (/as/executive/ on the front page), 404.html answers any view address, and 28 cards for the front page, the agencies, the numbers and the playbook unfurl with who they are for

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.21.10 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

the split, in progress: the press is at press.php.oct.2026.newsroom.sgit.ai, this story's own for now (the editor); the data repository's v0.1.0 (49 catalogue entries, 466 files, a schema each, immutable /v/0.1.0/ with sha256s) and the team repository's first import (the board as one file per row) are on dev; press, refs, updates and site wait for the design agent's UX refactor

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.21.9 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

the split's names, as the editor decided: press (not kit) for the build library, the gate, the release and the shared components, at press.newsroom.sgit.ai; data keeps its name (api is the newsroom's main API); the plan's step 0 lists the six DNS records, and its site step follows story-site's URL-path and 404-router briefs

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.21.8 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

Conductor full pass 15:15 London: two run records carried in from runs/ branches, the wiring of every scheduled task on /team/status/

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.21.7 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

the plan for one repository into six, agreed by the editor: final names from day one (…__PHP__kit, data, refs, updates, team, site; today's repository renamed __PHP__v1 only at the cutover), the editor's setup (repositories, Pages, DNS), one session holding all seven repositories to cut the site, every old address answering, a parity report, each agent reviewing its own repository, the cutover and how to tell it worked

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.21.6 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

the briefs page sorts by the time each brief was published, newest first, and shows that time on every row and every brief's page (data/briefs-published.json, seeded from git once, never read from git by the build)

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.21.5 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

Ontologist pass 2 (14:05 London, scheduled): 36 new sources resolved to 32 new parties and 3 aliases, with the names that mislead noted (three different 'IT daily' sites, a press release on jiji.com); the Wikipedia article and its talk page fetched (no new article edits); the new Wikipedia article on Black October found for watching (board 320); the runbook's fetch step corrected

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.21.4 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

decks: what ruv.sgit.ai does and how it changes the deck per persona (one slide library and seven persona tracks in ruv's timeline format, so its player can be reused)

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.21.3 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

The desk's round 3 closed: its scheduled task wired to its card and its wakes moved after the correspondent's reviews, with a debrief

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.21.1 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

The desk's wakes move to 10:40 and 17:40 London, after the correspondent's reviews, and its scheduled task carries its card's prompt

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.21.0 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

Wikipedia, round 3: the article's history as lifelines (/wikipedia/php2shell/evolution/), its talk page as threads, a reviewer's reading of it against this site's captures (15 findings, for the editor to take to the talk page in his own words), a page for Wikipedia's editors with the collaboration rules, Wikidata links confirmed for 25 parties and Wikidata/DBpedia tracked, the ontologist's task moved into its own session at 06:05, 10:05, 14:05 and 18:05 London, and the story on adopting Wikipedia's principles for the agents

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.20.7 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

the requirement for a deck per persona, captured from the editor: the debrief as slides from data, cut at every major update, with a slider through the cuts, pin, play, compare any two, 'since yours', and PDFs for reading and for LinkedIn

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.20.6 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

The librarian's scheduled task now carries its card's prompt word for word, and its daily pass moves to 20:23 London, after the correspondent and the ontologist, at the editor's request

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.20.5 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

The scheduled tasks as they are at 13:00 London, after the agents wired their own: researcher, Sherpa, librarian, ontologist and pulse now carry their cards' prompts; the ontologist's old task deleted; conductor (scheduled), curator, desk and fact-check still to do

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.20.4 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

The security agent's schedule card: one pass a day at 22:35 London, after the day's last releases and before the first wake, at the editor's request in the security session

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.20.3 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

The stricter gate, on the editor's go: security_check.py fails on inline event handlers, pages without a safe Content-Security-Policy, forged or editor-claiming message headers, decrypted drain output in the tree, and ignored files the build reads; its findings name the kind of secret and never repeat its characters (SA-2026-041, found by GitHub code scanning); the advisories, REALITY.md and board 279 record it

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.20.2 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

a proposal on the briefs page, at the editor's request: one repository into six (kit, data, refs, updates, site, team), each with its own writers, version, gate and site, meeting only through versioned URLs, not submodules; measured on v0.20.0 (every release rewrites about 1,936 pages, 118 commits fought over VERSION in three days, a 74 s gate for a one-line run record) with the phases and the five decisions; and the briefs' older/newer chips show their arrows and wrap

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.20.1 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

the editor's notes on the URL article, captured with story-site's reply: view paths answered by a 404 router instead of written as files, the site's two modes (indexed pages, and views shaped in the browser), and four decisions

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.20.0 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

the briefs page is a list of titles with a page and a link per brief (with markdown twins, the old anchors still landing), and the admin and team pages use the whole width of the screen

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.19.5 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

The Sherpa's 11:45 pass: headlines on the first screen of every page walked, the feedback menu one scrolling row on a phone (F036), prototype F read on a phone (F037), Latest still ends on 23 October (F032)

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.19.2 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

Scheduled tasks on the site: /team/schedule/ shows what the account actually runs, each task checked against its card (times, session, prompt), and /team/schedule/wiring/ gives each agent the steps to wire its own tasks; two stale one-shot tasks deleted and five prompts set to their cards

1 fact reworded or re-sourced: no-confirmed-compromise.

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.19.0 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

the line on a phone no longer holds the top of the screen (it scrolls away, and its sentence runs full width); and the article, written before the work, on URL paths, a persona in the address (/agencies/as/security/) and a single-page site that keeps every page's own path and its SEO

the line, built: the editor's design of 25 October as prototype F at /admin/design/line/ (six pages from the evidence vault, the pack's engine and words vendored with its 19 tests, the numbers filled from data); story-site's round 3

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.17.5 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

The journalist and the correspondent now run on a schedule (the schedules page, /views/loops/): the correspondent 45 minutes after each of the journalist's five wakes, so every loop closes within the hour

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.17.4 · 25 October 2026new since your last visit

Every loop, on one page (/views/loops/): the pipeline from the researcher to the correspondent, the last full loop, the next one due, every loop so far, timings, blind spots and the numbers; and the home page now shows the latest evidence time and the last agent run instead of 'last checked'

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

Wikipedia as an anchor: the PHP2Shell article read as a fractal semantic graph, one statement per sentence classed as fact, attribution or quote, each joined to its references and to the captures this site holds of them, every one of its 364 revisions kept as what it changed, its Wikidata item, and the daily pass now fetching it; with a brief for the researcher to follow every reference

CodeQL's second scan, triaged: the design dials derive their root as a count of ../ segments and accept only this site's pages as a home; the reader's 'what changed' links take only well-formed item ids; the build's and the CSP's script-tag regexes match any end tag form (</script foo>); and Dependabot, on the editor's go, keeps the workflows' pinned actions current with reviewed pull requests

v0.15.12 · 24 October 2026new since your last visit

CodeQL's first scan, triaged and hardened: every script that read data-root now derives root as a count of ../ segments, so page text can never become markup or a link; pipeline.js checks the GitHub API's URLs and commit ids before linking them; review-nav escapes a class name; the build's script-stripping and CSP inline-script regexes accept </script > forms; the X-source label checks the URL's host, not a substring

the risk graph as a tool (CI-002, steps 1 to 5): every edge says how it is known (read from a capture, from the fix commit, or inferred by an agent; inferred drawn dashed and hideable); the fix commit's 270 tests as nodes; explore the graph from any node, one step at a time, or climb from a file or a test to the risks, controls and stakeholders above it; and a gaps page computed at every build: no control is joined to code or a test, no code has an owner, 14 risks have no story

Feedback from collaborators: the editor's internal test messages recorded as tests (UF-004), dev's fixes to the join page marked in the friction log, the editor's decisions in the brief to the conductor (a 'this may be published' checkbox, no keys for feedback, one form), and the Sherpa's held key on /team/vaults/

v0.10.1 · 23 October 2026new since your last visit

three briefs on /admin/briefs/: scanner noise, a research angle on how php2shell scanners and detection rules decide and what they get wrong (12 captured rows, with Jeremiah Grossman's post); Perplexity reading the community spaces (job 03, its prompt in full); and the external collectors brief with ChatGPT's first run; briefs now render quotes and pictures

the redesign, for review (/admin/design/): two dials, who you are and how much of the site you see (Focus, Standard, Everything); which pages each reader sees; the menu per view; four mockups built from the live data: a board member's front page, a security lead's three-column front page, the agencies as answer, picture and cards, and a team console with its own menu

v0.9.3 · 23 October 2026new since your last visit

Feedback from collaborators (/feedback/): every piece of feedback kept whole beside the Sherpa's comments, with readers' own highlights and notes, the numbers, and the briefs it became (to the conductor, and to pki.sgit.ai); UF-003, the first power user through the whole invitation, imported with her screenshots; and the brief for three views over time, the executive first, with the knowledge gap as a view of its own

v0.9.2 · 23 October 2026new since your last visit

the vault key is the whole boundary: whoever holds a vault's key can drain its lane (the enum key and the key pair's passphrase derived from the vault key, the key pair inside the vault), and the keys each agent holds listed on /team/vaults/; the editor's first key enrolled; his feedback on /join/ answered: where this device's key stands, one wording for Feedback, up to three screenshots

v0.9.1 · 23 October 2026new since your last visit

vaults (/team/vaults/): every vault each agent made, listed by agent and by ID only, with whether its key is sealed to the editor; and guidance every agent reads (AGENTS.md section 6, CLAUDE.md): add a vault's ID when you make it, seal its key to the root with pki-agent, and when asked for a key send the sealed link and its QR code, never the key

v0.9.0 · 23 October 2026new since your last visit

The Sherpa joins (/sherpa/): the agent that walks with the reader; readers' feedback recorded and answered point by point (UF-001 from a power user, UF-002 from an agent testing the invitation link), with both interface bugs reproduced; ideas from collaborators set against what the site has today (CI-001); the friction log of what gets in readers' way, with who can fix each; and the Sherpa on the team

who reads this site, by group: every session a reader, the editor, a power user or team member, synthetic (agents and tests) or a crawler, declared by the browser from now on (automation by class, the role of a /join/ key or of this browser's setting) and inferred before; the groups, an hourly chart and a world map of readers on /admin/telemetry/; and a public stats vault (0cfkdcvh, read key published) with its own app, updated at every drain by admin/build/telemetry_flow.sh

v0.8.2 · 23 October 2026new since your last visit

status (/team/status/): where every agent is on the morning of 23 October, what each last did and waits for and from whom, the eleven branches waiting for dev, what ran on a schedule overnight, how fresh the site's data is against its vaults; and the brief for day two, situation awareness

feedback from any page, signed: a Feedback button beside Ask on every page (what is wrong, unclear, missing or good, with a screenshot), signed with a key made on the reader's device; /join/ makes the key from an invitation in one tap and /join/invite/ makes invitations in the browser, as a QR code and a share button, signed by the editor's key; keys are enrolled automatically when both signatures check; and the brief for the organisation as a digital twin

v0.7.0 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

power users, start here (/collaborators/): a generic onboarding for the people the editor nudges in his WhatsApp group and by email, the latest ask with its messages, and join and feedback forms encrypted to a private vault; runs (/team/runs/): every schedule the agents run, the quiet hours, and every recorded run with the article it should leave

v0.5.10 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

the telemetry vault-in-vault turned around: the application moves to a versioned vault of its own (5wnsr5h8, v0.1.1, eight pages), the telemetry vault imports it and drains its own lane from the browser (40 events drained that way, 275 from 176 sessions now), and the dashboard vault i4diy82d is superseded

v0.5.9 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

no named organisation has said it was compromised through php2shell: claim no-confirmed-compromise reworded with its time (20:50 UTC, 22 October) and moved from confirmed to reported, the plain-English lines that said nobody had confirmed a break-in corrected, and a page of its own (/compromise/) mapping the evidence behind the statement: what was searched, 33 statements by kind with their sources or source-watch snapshots, the layers from attempts to a named compromise, a timeline, and what would change it

Briefings that changed

v0.5.8 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

factcheck run 2: the PHP security team answered the 'incomplete fix' report publicly at 09:11 UTC on 22 October (unrelated crash bug, nothing to do with the RCE), so the front page's 'not answered publicly yet' is out of date; contradiction K-011 and five pieces of outside evidence; KEV still lists neither CVE; no claim changed and no run-1 ticket can close yet; the desk now publishes to dev on the editor's instruction

v0.5.5 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

two more branches carried in: security@php.newsroom's first pass (the security requirements, security_check.py in the gate and in release.sh, hardened build, workflows and drains, the rules of engagement for keys, the root pinned in CLAUDE.md; /admin/keys/ waits for data/keys.json) and the fact-check desk's run 1 (all 70 claims graded against the vault, 10 contradictions, /factcheck/)

v0.5.4 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

Ask, on every page: a pane on the right where you talk to the site with your own OpenRouter key; the model calls the site's read-only tools itself (search, items, pages, what is new to you, your notes, the situation), every call shown, every fact cited to an item; it can only propose marking items read or adding a note, and does nothing without your Allow; the tools are also published as window.__tools for any agent in your browser; your key, your reading record, notes, feeds and chats are kept in your vault, the same one the phone app opens

v0.5.3 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

guidance for every agent, AGENTS.md and /admin/agents/: push to your own branch after every step that builds and take in dev often, dev@php.newsroom carries branches into dev and releases; quality from coding.sgit.ai, non-functional requirements from nfrs.sgit.ai, and the security requirements (no secret in any repository, secrets sealed to pki.sgit.ai keys, readers' data in their browser or their own vault, untrusted input shown as text, a model given data not instructions)

two branches carried into dev: researcher@ and cyber@php.newsroom join with the cyber desk's first piece, 'Patch at the speed of Metasploit' (board items renumbered 076 to 079 after the conductor's); and the fact-check desk as pushed, its model, contradiction ledger and /factcheck/, run 1 in progress

the team: every member, human and agent, with a page (role, what they own, tasks, what they shipped), Vicky joins as project manager and the conductor as conductor and comms; the team coordinates through three private vaults, the conductor vault with an append lane, the issues vault (Issues-FS-lite, the board moved into it) and the mail vault (Email-FS-lite); /team/channels/ and the run

v0.5.0 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

Now, the phone app (/now/): what you need to know for one, five, ten or thirty minutes against what you read before; a deterministic mode from the data and an agentic one where Sonnet writes your briefing and answers in a chat and Gemini draws an infographic, with your OpenRouter key kept in your own vault; the newsroom's vault library vendored for it

v0.4.7 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

the editor's critical brief on scheduled capture: the sources that move are checked on a schedule, captured raw, turned into timestamped JSON and analysed on every change; contradictions between reports are recorded as first-class records, seeded with seven from the coverage review; meaning through connectivity, with every fact and stat on a spectrum of evidence; board items 057 to 063

the coverage vault: 24 pages from other outlets captured with screenshots, page text and hashes into a new private vault (dcsmxese), listed on /vaults/ without its key, and the review of how they present the story and what this site should learn, in admin/content/reviews/

v0.4.4 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

subscriptions: /subscribe/ takes an address, what to follow and how often, encrypts it in the reader's browser to the new private subscriptions vault (wgeiqabu) and posts it to that vault's write-only lane; the agent at agent@diniscruz.ai confirms each address before sending anything; the vault is listed on /vaults/, its drain script is admin/build/subscriptions_drain.py, and its keys and the telemetry vault's are sealed to the editor's key

The second stories: the NCSC-NL inventory read hour by hour from its public history (38 versions, 61 fixed, 216 vulnerable, 440 under investigation at 15:28 UTC on 22 October; 185 of the vulnerable are applications that inherit PHP's flaw; firewalls and gateways among the affected), /signals/ with the ladder from exposed to exploited, four signal families and the time of each barrier, and the story 'Exposed is not exploited' by the journalist and the historian; a correction: the inventory had 675 rows at the captured commit, not 674

v0.4.2 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

the delta since your last visit: every item on the site (facts, sections, briefings, stories, questions, sources, dated events) is marked new, changed or read in your browser; mark a page or everything read and the read items fade or hide, so the next visit shows only what changed; decisions and notes per item; your desk at /you/; five RSS feeds (everything, for you, research, stories, about the site) at /feeds/; a feed viewer at /reader/ for this site's feeds, the CVE records, NVD, OSV, CISA KEV, GitHub, Hacker News and Mastodon, and feeds you add

v0.4.0 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

the design branch merged into dev: the site is PHP October 2026 with a jargon-free front page, fifteen readers with plain answers and reading paths, a glossary on every page, every section and fact versioned with history and diffs, what's new with a feed, the editor's interview, and sitemap.xml and robots.txt for search engines; everything dev shipped since v0.2.2 is kept

every section versioned and every fact given a timeline: each briefing, front-page section and story page records the release that wrote it, with its history and a diff of every change; a page per fact, from publication to this site; what's new, release by release, with a feed; the fact pipeline; the editor interviewed in his own words; a sitemap, robots.txt and structured data for search engines

the site is renamed PHP October 2026, PHP news for the month rather than one nickname, and its front page is now jargon-free and about the current situation: right now, at a glance, the core facts each with its status and evidence, what nobody knows yet and the latest; the technical front page moved to the specialist summary

the vaults: a Vaults section listing every vault behind the site (the evidence vault and the source watch with their read keys, the private telemetry vault with its write-only lane); the source watch (oq9gflln) published the way sgit.ai publishes vaults, with its key, a link that opens it in a new tab, the official UI embedded and its features (raw and analysis trees, country to page taxonomy, access classes, licence tiers, graphs at four altitudes, runs, tips, tools) from data/source-watch.json; the evidence vault page embeds its app too

v0.2.12 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

deploys from several agents: the Pages workflow queues deploys instead of cancelling the one in flight, and release.sh takes in what other agents released before it bumps and again if its push loses a race; /status/ shows each newsroom site's deploy runs from GitHub's public API with no credential, beside the version each serves, and every page notes when a newer release is live

v0.2.11 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

v0.2.10 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

pricing by content type and freshness: every content page metered (only the meter's own pages are not), price = max(1p, round(base x freshness)) with tiers picked in the reader's browser, the formula and rules of engagement on the billing page; second readings: Perplexity's notes published in full and credited, compared with the vault point by point; the newsroom's review of the site published as received, with a triage and fourteen board items; briefing titles and table word-wrapping fixed

No reader-facing section changed in this release.

v0.2.9 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

the release check now accepts this version or later, because several agents release to dev and one can land on top of another inside the polling window (v0.2.8 landed on v0.2.7 and the old exact check called a live release unverified)

v0.2.8 · 22 October 2026new since your last visit

the articles layer and the evidence, derived, authored split: a journalist's state-of-affairs report and a historian's perspective, both written against v0.2.5 (the librarian's questions shipped alongside as v0.2.6, the dev agent's key as v0.2.7); /layers/ classifying every data file, checked by the gate; the menu split into story, articles, analysis and evidence; a front page and navigation review; the front page's 'six briefings' corrected to the computed twelve
