The first public beta establishes the integrated Judge and Tactician foundation, persistent conversations, structured evidence, automated handoff, and repository-health basics.
The next integrated beta requires:
- reliable Judge answers for the covered families;
- source-grounded validation and safe failure;
- automatic Judge-to-Tactician handoff;
- resilient conversation continuity;
- iterative Tactician queries through the Judge tool gateway;
- formal combo reconstruction;
- useful local UI and persistent history;
- reproducible installation and evaluation.
The first major release should add mature deck analysis, authorized strategic sources, collection awareness, broader format support, and production-grade packaging.
