Overview

0.6 completes the transport matrix (Slack Socket Mode, Discord Gateway, Matrix, SMS, iMessage, Email) and the provider matrix (AWS Bedrock, Google Vertex, anthropic cache markers). It also introduces SLSA-3 provenance and cosign-signed release checksums.

What changed

  • Transports: slack, discord, matrix, sms, imessage, email subcommands. New config blocks for each.
  • Providers: bedrock and vertex blocks; anthropic client now writes cache markers on the last two messages.
  • Doctor: rousseau doctor reports every transport's readiness (not just WhatsApp).
  • MCP: rousseau mcp exposes cron list as a fourth tool.
  • Podman: reference Quadlet unit ships in docker/rousseau-agent.container.
  • Signing: releases publish cosign signatures, CycloneDX SBOM, SLSA-3 provenance.

Config diff

provider: claudecli

anthropic:
  model: claude-sonnet-4
  max_tokens: 4096

state:
  path: ~/.local/share/rousseau/sessions.db

whatsapp: { reply_header: "" }
telegram: { token: "", allowlist: [] }
signal:   { account: "", allowlist: [] }

Data-store compatibility

  • 0.5 → 0.6 opens sessions.db in place.
  • New tables: cron_jobs, jid_map, claude_cache (if not already present).
  • Downgrade to 0.5.x is safe if you did not use cron or the new transports; the extra tables are ignored by the older binary.

Migration steps

# 1. Backup
cp -a ~/.local/share/rousseau ~/.local/share/rousseau.pre-06

# 2. Fetch signed release
VER=0.6.0
curl -LO https://github.com/sebastienrousseau/rousseau-agent/releases/download/v${VER}/rousseau_${VER}_linux_amd64.tar.gz
curl -LO https://github.com/sebastienrousseau/rousseau-agent/releases/download/v${VER}/rousseau_${VER}_checksums.txt
curl -LO https://github.com/sebastienrousseau/rousseau-agent/releases/download/v${VER}/rousseau_${VER}_checksums.txt.sig

# 3. Verify supply chain
cosign verify-blob \
  --certificate-identity-regexp 'sebastienrousseau/rousseau-agent' \
  --certificate-oidc-issuer 'https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com' \
  --signature rousseau_${VER}_checksums.txt.sig \
  rousseau_${VER}_checksums.txt
sha256sum -c rousseau_${VER}_checksums.txt --ignore-missing

# 4. Install
tar -xzf rousseau_${VER}_linux_amd64.tar.gz
sudo install -m 0755 rousseau /usr/local/bin/

# 5. Verify install
rousseau version
rousseau doctor

Downgrade path

# Fetch the previous minor
VER=0.5.7
curl -LO https://github.com/sebastienrousseau/rousseau-agent/releases/download/v${VER}/rousseau_${VER}_linux_amd64.tar.gz
tar -xzf rousseau_${VER}_linux_amd64.tar.gz
sudo install -m 0755 rousseau /usr/local/bin/

Restore the backup if 0.6-only tables were populated:

rm ~/.local/share/rousseau/sessions.db*
cp -a ~/.local/share/rousseau.pre-06/. ~/.local/share/rousseau/

Verification checklist

  • rousseau version reports 0.6.x with real commit + build-date (not dev / none / unknown).
  • rousseau doctor — no fail rows.
  • rousseau session list shows history unchanged.
  • rousseau slack --help, rousseau matrix --help, rousseau email --help all list flags — proves the new subcommands are wired.
  • If used, rousseau cron list returns any pre-existing jobs.
