Project Report #4 • What did Talanov work on using Codex? • 2026-10-20 → 2026-10-27
Igloo v2 — 6 releases in 7 days (v4.1.0 → v4.3.2), cross-model sync & report themes.
Merged 6 PRs (#7, #8 w/ 46 review items, #10, #13, #15, #18), closed 3 issues (#12, #16, #17), and shipped 46 commits culminating in v4.3.2 + Lush Forest / Midnight Observatory themes.
Mission & Commercial Positioning
What Igloo v2 Is
Igloo v2 is a structured development harness and workflow orchestration plugin for AI coding agents across OpenAI Codex, Google Antigravity, and Gemini CLI. Rather than letting autonomous models drift or hallucinate completion, Igloo enforces bounded SemVer vertical slices, risk-selected independent Spec/Standards/Test Quality reviews, bounded 2-batch repair loops, and native cross-model synchronization via GitHub Issues.
Commercial Rationale (90/100)
Multi-harness AI software delivery & cross-model synchronization platform (6 releases shipped in 7 days).
Current Milestone (As of Oct 27)
Shipped six rapid releases between Oct 20 and Oct 27: v4.1.0 (PR #7, 13-skill CLI installation), v4.2.0 (PR #8, native cross-model GitHub issue sync with 46 review items), v4.2.1 (PR #10, path-jail and shell sanitization security repairs), v4.3.0 (PR #13, bounded ntfy/Twilio notifications, recurring briefs, and release skills), v4.3.1 (PR #15, 60-day lifetime and current-period brief fixes), and v4.3.2 (PR #18, syntax QA proofreading in igloo-create & beginner README journey), plus commit 06974f7 adding Midnight Observatory and Lush Forest themes.
