v0.8

0.8.0 — 0.8.8 | 2026-03-06 to 2026-03-07

The 0.8 series introduced the unified telemetry database, MCP gateway, in-VM benchmarks, and apt-get support.

Telemetry and auditing

• Per-session SQLite database (info.db) with 6 tables: net_events, model_calls, tool_calls, tool_responses, mcp_calls, fs_events
• Cross-session summary database (main.db) with 30-second periodic rollup
• Full request/response body capture for HTTPS traffic through the MITM proxy

MCP gateway

• MCP gateway for AI agent tool access over vsock port 5003
• Built-in HTTP tools: fetch_http, grep_http, http_headers
• Policy-checked tool routing with domain and HTTP rule enforcement

VM environment

• apt-get install support inside the VM via overlayfs with redirect_dir (packages are ephemeral — gone after shutdown)
• Claude Code installed as native binary from Anthropic’s release bucket (no Node.js dependency)
• Squashfs rootfs replacing ext4 for faster boot and smaller distribution
• just doctor command for checking all required dev tools

Benchmarks

• capsem-bench suite: scratch disk I/O, rootfs read, CLI startup latency, HTTP latency, proxy throughput (~35 MB/s baseline)
• Proxy throughput benchmark: 100 MB download through the full MITM pipeline

Release infrastructure

• CI-only release pipeline triggered by tag push
• Apple certificate preflight validation in CI
• Ephemeral model enforced by preflight check and end-to-end integration test
