Migrate all 9 library programs: inspector, calibrator, cost-analyzer,
error-forensics, profiler, program-improver, vm-improver, project-
memory, and user-memory. Each becomes a .md file with contracts,
services lists, and appropriate persistence declarations.

Complex execution-block programs: captain's chair full (29), feature
factory (35), The Forge browser build (37), architect by simulation
(39), and language self-improvement (47). All use Level 3 execution
blocks with explicit let/call control flow.

Index run scaffolded new READMEs for all subdirectories. Review run
added the missing profiler.prose entry to skills/open-prose/lib/README.md
(cost, token usage, and time profiling for completed runs).

After fetching a page, websh now automatically prefetches linked pages
in the background. This makes `follow` and navigation feel instant
since content is already cached when needed.
- Add state/crawl.md with full crawl agent design
- Add prefetch, crawl, queue commands
- Configure via EAGER_CRAWL, CRAWL_DEPTH, CRAWL_SAME_DOMAIN env vars
- Priority: earlier links, same-domain, main content first
- Respects rate limits and robots.txt

- HN is first in all suggestion lists
- Tab completion should suggest `cd https://news.ycombinator.com` first
- Added note: HN is the "hello world" of websh
- Updated example session to reflect async flow

Core principle: main thread never blocks.
All heavy operations delegate to background haiku subagents:
- Network fetches
- HTML parsing / extraction
- Content processing
- Multi-page operations (find, crawl, tar)
- Initialization
- Monitoring (watch)
User always gets prompt back instantly. Commands gracefully
degrade if background work isn't complete.

cd is now fully async:
- User gets prompt back immediately with "(fetching...)"
- Background haiku task does fetch + extract
- Never blocks the main thread
- Commands gracefully degrade if content not ready
Curated bookmarks (removed mainstream news):
- hn, lobsters, tildes, wiby, marginalia, wiki, sourcehut, are.na
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- No more bare "error: no page loaded" - suggest sites to visit
- Pre-populated bookmarks: hn, wiki, lobsters, tildes, npr, cnn, wiby
- Pre-populated aliases for quick navigation
- Helpful hints in empty states instead of "(none)"
- All suggested sites are public/accessible (no walled gardens)

Spawn background haiku task for workspace init.
User sees banner + prompt immediately, can start typing.
Commands work gracefully with empty defaults until init completes.

A Unix-like shell for navigating and querying the web:
- URLs as paths, DOM as filesystem
- 80+ commands: ls, cat, grep, find, mount, watch, etc.
- Async haiku extraction for rich cached content
- Job control, environment, mounting APIs
- Natural language support - infers intent for unknown commands

Telemetry was collecting anonymous usage analytics but is no longer needed.
Removes all telemetry-related code, config, and documentation including
USER_ID/SESSION_ID tracking, analytics endpoint calls, and migration steps
for legacy telemetry state files.

Adds two new programs to the standard library that complete the
recursive improvement loop:
- vm-improver.prose: Analyzes inspection reports and proposes PRs
to improve the OpenProse VM specification and implementation
- program-improver.prose: Analyzes inspection reports and proposes
PRs to improve .prose source code (either in lib/ or external)
Together with inspector.prose, these enable a feedback cycle where
execution data drives improvements to both the VM and programs.

- Add progressive disclosure: quick triage before deep scan
- Model tiering: Sonnet for checklist work, Opus for hard analysis
- Parallel scanners with graceful degradation (on-fail: continue)
- Persistent historian agent for scan history across runs
- Customizable inputs: mode (quick/standard/deep), focus, skill_filter
- Reusable blocks for scan workflow components
- Structured JSON output contracts for all agents
- Early alerting for critical findings mid-scan
- Batched processing to respect parallelism limits
- Add CLI commands section to prose.md
- Add remote programs documentation to both SKILL.md and prose.md
- Document resolution rules: direct URLs, @handle/slug shorthand, local files
- Clarify that p.prose.md is the only registry for @ shorthand
Fixes issue where model was hallucinating incorrect registry URLs.
This minor version release introduces mid-program inputs functionality,
enabling more interactive program execution flows. Also includes 8 new
meta-level examples demonstrating advanced OpenProse patterns.

Plugins bundle files in a cache, and relative paths outside the skill
directory don't work. By moving examples from /examples/ to
/skills/open-prose/examples/, Claude can now find and run examples
without needing to resolve complex relative paths.
