What

feat: version history/diff/rollback and the person Skill lifecycle

Commits

  • feat(cli): show version history, diff it, and roll back
  • feat(bindings): complete the person Skill lifecycle

Stack

Stacked on pr/08-chat-exports-and-idempotence; the whole series ends at distilly-work (0bd924e).

Verification

Every feature carries an author report and an independent audit in the delivery evidence folder (host-verification/), including screenshots and the audit verdict that drove the fixes. Gates on the top of the stack: format, lint, docs, release check, and 1163 tests.

Real hosts

Codex, Claude Code 2.1.268, OpenClaw 2026.9.2, Hermes v0.19.0, and DSH 0.1.5-rc.1 were each exercised end to end (install, host-visible confirmation, exactly five MCP tools, person Skill install/remove, uninstall). Capacity fixtures are recorded for Codex 0.146.0, OpenClaw 2026.3.24, and Hermes v0.9.0; newer host versions run on the labelled conservative floor.

Evidence

Author reports and screenshots (delivery evidence folder host-verification/):

  • f8-version-rollback.png
  • f9-person-skill-lifecycle-REPORT.md, f9-person-skill-lifecycle.png

Independent audit reports:

  • round14-dsh-and-splitter-VERIFY.md (person Skill lifecycle), round17-parsers-and-versions-VERIFY.md (version commands)

A re-distilled profile can be worse than the one before it, and there was no
way to see what changed or to restore an earlier version from the CLI: install
could not even be upgraded. The version commands list every immutable version
with the id needed to act on it, print the semantic diff between two versions
before anything is restored, and roll back by creating a new current version so
no history is ever rewritten.
Installing a person Skill could not be repeated after a re-distill: the second
install hit the existing directory and refused, so a user was stuck on the first
version, and there was no way to list or remove one person's Skill without
removing the whole host integration.

install now updates the install Distilly owns for that subject in place, keeping
the Skill path stable across a display-name change and restoring the previous
Skill if the replacement fails. listPersonInstalls reports every install under a
host's skills root, including a directory that cannot be verified, and DSH gets
its own skills root beside the integration.

Superseded: this stacked series is consolidated into the dot-skill-test line (same tree, kept on distilly-work). Closing without merging to avoid conflicts with the v2 rewrite.
