## v0.2.0

*Current release*

### New

* **`critiqor check` command** — validate your agent deployment against a policy file before shipping. Pass a policy file with `--policy <file>` to codify your acceptance criteria and block deployments that fall below your defined thresholds.
* **Visibility control** — pass `--visibility` to `critiqor monitor openclaw` to set the visibility level of the monitoring session.
* **Difficulty tier selection** — pass `--difficulty-tier` to `critiqor monitor openclaw` to choose the evaluation intensity: `easy`, `standard`, `hard`, or `stress`.
* **Custom OpenClaw command** — use `--openclaw-command` to supply a custom command when launching OpenClaw, giving you full control over how the target agent process is started.
* **Custom working directory** — use `--cwd` to specify the working directory in which OpenClaw is launched.
* **Session timeout** — use `--timeout` to set a maximum duration for an observation session, after which the session is automatically finalized.

### Improved

* **Observation session workflow** — the end-to-end flow for starting, running, and finalizing sessions is more reliable and easier to follow.
* **`critiqor runs` listing** — each entry in the run list now includes a diagnosis summary, so you can triage results at a glance without opening the full dashboard.
* **Dashboard reliability** — general stability and reliability improvements to the dashboard experience.

## v0.1.0

*Initial release — 2026-05-29*

### New

* **`critiqor monitor openclaw`** — launch OpenClaw and begin a runtime observation session. Critiqor watches your agent in real time and captures behavioral evidence throughout the run.
* **`critiqor finalize`** — stop the active observation session and open the reliability dashboard for that run.
* **`critiqor dashboard [run_id]`** — open the dashboard for the latest completed run, or pass a specific `run_id` to review any historical run.
* **`critiqor runs`** — list all completed evaluation sessions stored locally.
* **Trust levels** — every run is assigned one of three trust levels: **High**, **Moderate**, or **Low**, giving you an at-a-glance signal of agent reliability.
* **Dashboard sections** — the run dashboard includes six sections: Executive Summary, Trust Assessment, Primary Diagnosis, Runtime Evidence, Recommendations, and Historical Runs.
* **Local run storage** — all run artifacts are stored on your own machine. No data is sent to external servers.
* **Python support** — compatible with Python 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, and 3.13.
