v0.2.0

Current release

New

  • critiqor check command — validate your agent deployment against a policy file before shipping. Pass a policy file with --policy <file> to codify your acceptance criteria and block deployments that fall below your defined thresholds.
  • Visibility control — pass --visibility to critiqor monitor openclaw to set the visibility level of the monitoring session.
  • Difficulty tier selection — pass --difficulty-tier to critiqor monitor openclaw to choose the evaluation intensity: easy, standard, hard, or stress.
  • Custom OpenClaw command — use --openclaw-command to supply a custom command when launching OpenClaw, giving you full control over how the target agent process is started.
  • Custom working directory — use --cwd to specify the working directory in which OpenClaw is launched.
  • Session timeout — use --timeout to set a maximum duration for an observation session, after which the session is automatically finalized.

Improved

  • Observation session workflow — the end-to-end flow for starting, running, and finalizing sessions is more reliable and easier to follow.
  • critiqor runs listing — each entry in the run list now includes a diagnosis summary, so you can triage results at a glance without opening the full dashboard.
  • Dashboard reliability — general stability and reliability improvements to the dashboard experience.

v0.1.0

Initial release — 2026-05-29

New

  • critiqor monitor openclaw — launch OpenClaw and begin a runtime observation session. Critiqor watches your agent in real time and captures behavioral evidence throughout the run.
  • critiqor finalize — stop the active observation session and open the reliability dashboard for that run.
  • critiqor dashboard [run_id] — open the dashboard for the latest completed run, or pass a specific run_id to review any historical run.
  • critiqor runs — list all completed evaluation sessions stored locally.
  • Trust levels — every run is assigned one of three trust levels: High, Moderate, or Low, giving you an at-a-glance signal of agent reliability.
  • Dashboard sections — the run dashboard includes six sections: Executive Summary, Trust Assessment, Primary Diagnosis, Runtime Evidence, Recommendations, and Historical Runs.
  • Local run storage — all run artifacts are stored on your own machine. No data is sent to external servers.
  • Python support — compatible with Python 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, and 3.13.
