Release notes:

Agent Governance Toolkit v4.0.0

Ship agents to production without losing sleep -- now with consolidated packages, TEE key management, and Entra JWT verification across the mesh.

Highlights

Python Package Consolidation (Breaking)

45 Python packages consolidated into 5 clean distributions:

| Distribution | What is included | |---|---| | agent-governance-toolkit-core | Policy engine, capability model, audit, MCP gateway, identity, trust scoring | | agent-governance-toolkit-runtime | Privilege rings, saga orchestration, termination control | | agent-governance-toolkit-sre | SLOs, error budgets, chaos engineering, circuit breakers | | agent-governance-toolkit-cli | agt CLI, OWASP verification, integrity checks, policy linting | | agent-governance-toolkit[full] | Meta-package installing all of the above |

Old package names (agent-os-kernel, agentmesh-platform, etc.) remain as stub redirects for migration.

New Capabilities

  • TEE keystore abstraction (ADR 0010): async key management with TEEKeyHandle, SoftwareKeyHandle, and attested key store adapters
  • Entra-signed JWT verification for mesh-relay WebSocket connections and mesh-registry agent verification
  • Wire-protocol-aware policy evaluation for SQL and Kubernetes across TypeScript, Rust, Go, and .NET
  • Credential injection and offload across all four SDK languages
  • Expanded credential redaction across C#, Python, TypeScript, and Rust
  • Sandbox subprocess code scanner and OpenShell shell interception
  • LangGraph v1.0 governance adapter with stale-auth fingerprinting
  • New CLI governance packages: OpenCode, Antigravity CLI, Claude Code
  • AGT test replay engine for policy regression testing

Security (15+ fixes)

  • Closed authorization bypasses in stateless kernel and execute API
  • Proof-of-possession enforcement on registry endpoints
  • Trust boundary hardening: POP, capability grant auth, signing-oracle, unknown-DID auto-trust
  • JWKS/revocation trust-fetch hardening and URL allowlist matching
  • In-process sandbox hardening against stdlib escape paths
  • Mute-agent: 11 red-team regression tests
  • setuptools minimum raised to 78.1.1 for CVE fix

Documentation

  • README rewrite, docs site refresh, architecture diagrams
  • ADR-0026 (Foundry AI Gateway PDP), ADR-0028 (AGT Studio), ADR-0029 (policy distribution)
  • NSA MCP compliance mapping, zh-TW translations
  • 60+ tutorial improvements
