v1.3.0 Doric

Released: 2025-12-13

Summary

Doric adds AI image generation, a VSCode-like file browser, and media viewing capabilities to the dashboard.

New Features

• 0054 - Generate Image Tool: New codev generate-image command for AI image generation using Gemini Nano Banana Pro model. Supports text prompts, reference images (up to 14), and multiple resolutions/aspect ratios.

• 0055 - Dashboard File Browser: VSCode-like "Files" tab with collapsible tree navigation. Browse project files directly in the dashboard, click to open in annotation viewer. Includes expand/collapse all controls.

• 0053 - af open Image/Video Support: View images (PNG, JPG, GIF, WebP, SVG) and videos (MP4, WebM, MOV, AVI) directly in the dashboard with zoom controls and dimension display.

Improvements

• Added Cheatsheet link to Projects view header
• Removed redundant "Open File" button (Files tab replaces it)
• Improved server argument parsing with Commander
• Added RELEASE protocol for standardized release process

Breaking Changes

• Removed af tower command - use codev tower instead (tower is cross-project, not repo-specific)

Housekeeping

• Removed legacy agent-farm/ directory (canonical source is packages/codev/src/agent-farm/)
• Abandoned specs:
  • 0017 (Platform Portability Layer) - dual-write CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md is sufficient
  • 0024 (Builder Event Notifications) - manual af send is sufficient

Migration Notes

If you were using af tower, switch to codev tower:

# Before
af tower start

# After
codev tower start
