From 8d56f648cdc0fa2b5d34d7078317cb2008db091f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Prekshi Vyas Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2026 19:00:39 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] docs(release): add v0.0.80 release notes (#6002) Release-prep docs for v0.0.80. Adds the v0.0.80 section to docs/about/release-notes.mdx summarizing user-facing changes since v0.0.79: Hermes v0.18 + Slack Block Kit, the host-local OpenRouter runtime attribution adapter, host corporate proxy CA import into sandbox trust, release-matched base-image selection and route-probe hardening, bare 'connect' default-sandbox behavior, interrupted onboarding/recovery preservation, the automatic Hermes light terminal skin, and non-interactive npx MCP server startup. Each bullet links to the relevant deeper page. Verified with npm run docs: 0 errors, all internal links resolve.

Point the two v0.0.80 inference links at their current published routes (../inference/hosted-inference/use-openrouter and ../inference/local-inference/choose-local-inference-server) so the Fern route validator passes for all agent variants.
