2026

August

  • Business Bootstrap hub — Restructured into capability areas (Email · Scheduling · Design · Vault · Org infra) with stack map and articles for Cal.com / Cal.diy, Penpot, Bitwarden / Vaultwarden. Hub stubs under Tools; FoodTruckNerdz links the same stack.

  • Studio MCP install strategies — Documented Composio’s Cursor install ladder (marketplace plugin, deeplink, mcp.json, skills, thin/fat MCP) as a reusable option for AI-studio tooling; master list AI studio tooling catalog. Wired into DevCentr AI Config / AI Workflow Arrangement specs. Explanation.

  • Composio MCP — Connector plane for Cursor/CLI agents (Gmail, GitHub, Vercel, …). How-to + stack explanation in general-knowledge; hub stub under Tools. Setup · Stack placement · portal.

  • Software Product Essentials — auxiliary templates — general-knowledge gained desktop/web/mobile auxiliary feature matrices (Help, About, updates, diagnostics, connectivity, privacy) plus macOS/Linux update apply guidance (quit/replace, package timers, AppImage). Auxiliary features · Delivery classes · Unix/macOS auto-updates.

  • Rules Manager — Compose/watch daemon + tray for agent-rules (dev-centr/rules-manager); Antora component on the hub. Rules Manager docs · portal · https://docs.devcentr.org/rules-manager/

  • Admonition TIP Antora green — DevCentr no longer remaps tip to brand teal; TIP pill + card stay on --tip-color / --adt-admonition-tip (Antora #41af46). Tip inline code keeps charcoal/coral with a rounded gray border.

  • Admonition TIP one green — TIP pill and card tint both follow --adt-admonition-tip (no second emerald on the body). Brand overlay clears stale cell washes; Valentus / antora-dark-mode ship the token wiring.

  • Admonition TIP card — TIP/NOTE label now sits inside the bordered card (table chrome). Prior overlay/fix only cleared the green wash and left the border on the body.

  • Theme toggle timing — Light↔dark animation was uneven: View Transitions (0.28s) raced Valentus --adt-transition paint rules (0.2s). Fixed upstream in antora-dark-mode (html.adt-theme-vt + :active-view-transition); docs brand overlay uses the CSS-only suppress until rolling v2 updates.

  • Admonition dark TIP wash — Earlier fix cleared type-tint wash on the TIP label cell (antora-dark-mode 1.4.1 / valentus-theme 2.0.6); superseded by the card-wrap fix above.

  • RepoDrive — Standalone forge virtual drive (dev-centr/repo-drive): GUI + tray, sparse mount, Ibex installers; wired into Antora hub. RepoDrive docs · portal · https://docs.devcentr.org/repo-drive/

  • Switchyard — New Windows file-association switchyard (dev-centr/switchyard): snapshot open/icon tracks, planned icon lock; Antora component on the hub. Switchyard docs · portal.

  • valentus-theme head-meta sync — Restored font-size FOUC + site-font-size.css in the supplemental head-meta.hbs overlay (was missing after brand fork). Condensed A/A/A control hides on desktop again and scales doc text on mobile. Playbooks already use rolling v2.

  • valentus-theme product topic — This repo (and other Valentus playbooks) tagged with GitHub topic valentus-theme for dependency rediscovery; convention documented upstream.

  • DOS naming — Public category stays Development Orchestration Suite; DevOps framed as one facet of the suite; Dev OS as quiet mental model only. Sites + DevCentr vision/capabilities docs updated.

  • Ibex — Rebrand of Easy Installer (ibex CLI): Install Builder EXtension. winget DevCentr.Ibex, Homebrew tap, Scoop. Ibex docs · portal.

  • Easy Installer CI emitemit-ci / ci-runner.sdl writes GitHub Actions, GitLab, Azure, Jenkins, CircleCI, and Bitbucket workflows plus CI-INSTALLER.adoc without a local package build. DevCentr: --mode=emit-ci and New Installer CI pipeline menu. How-to: emit CI.

  • Easy Installer — Host for in-place PATH, installer.kdl projects, plugin backends (zip/NSIS/Inno/MSI/MSIX/AppImage), and file-manager menus (now Ibex). Ibex docs · portal.

  • msi-generator v0.2 — Real OLE2 CFB, uncompressed CAB, and core MSI tables; multi-file MSIX with placeholder assets. MSI Generator docs.

July

  • fixnow-dev — Repo transferred to dev-centr/fixnow-dev. Antora component added (Introduction, Getting Started, AI Evaluation, API, Security) and registered on the hub. FixNow docs.

  • valentus-theme 2.0.3 — Playbooks pin rolling v2 UI bundle (tool-band search, read-width, condensed font-size switcher, Plus Jakarta Sans visual redesign). Dropped the local header-content.hbs override; brand CSS is now accent-token-only. See Antora UI branding.

  • resting-lanczos — Repo transferred to dev-centr/resting-lanczos. Live side-by-side comparison on devcentr.org/resting-lanczos (browser bilinear vs Lanczos srcset + transform). Tool overview: resting-lanczos.

  • Appearance / code fonts — DevCentr Appearance dialog: Cascadia Mono (default) or JetBrains Mono for terminal and code panels; recommended-tools docs updated.

  • Nushell as recommended shell — General-knowledge advocates Nushell as the default cross-platform shell; added Nu vs PowerShell, Nu + AI agents (vs NVIDIA OpenShell), and an NVIDIA OpenShell overview (name collision called out). OpenShellOrg companions: nu-require, nu-emit, shell-architecture.

  • Architecture — Subscription management platforms — New explanation page under Architecture: in-app subscription infrastructure (Adapty, RevenueCat, Qonversion, DIY), access levels vs store SKUs, Stripe Customer Portal limits, and web+mobile customer_user_id sync. Cross-linked from general-knowledge Explanation → Architecture.

June

  • Antora UI branding (docs playbook) — Dropped the local header-content.hbs override; valentus-theme v1.1.0+ resolves the header logo via site.keys.header_logo and supplemental img/ assets. Added Antora UI branding under Software publishing.

May

  • Architecture — UI-heavy web applications — New explanation page in the docs playbook (home component): Bonsai versus Leptos versus vibe.d, client/server split for database and authentication, creative stack interop (Three.js, smooth scroll, Pretext-style text layout), and notes on perceived performance in large integrated mail clients (illustrative case shapes, not vendor internals).

2025

March

  • Central Todo & Roadmap and Activity log — Moved org-wide roadmap and activity log into the docs repository so they live in one place for the aggregated site (docs.devcentr.org).

  • Knowledge base and publishing (DevCentr) — SSH keys, Git, workspace organization, Antora deployment, upstream contributions.

  • Portal and tools (docs repo) — Home portal linking DevCentr, Templates, MSI Generator; tool overviews for code-d, dprint, dlangui.
