Historical notes
These are working notes, audits, and experiment writeups, kept as records of what the repository looked like when they were written rather than as current documentation — read the guide for how Bullswarm works today.
| Note | Date | What it records |
|---|---|---|
| Bullswarm codebase audit | 2026-09-09 | A full audit of the 0.26/0.27 checkout: version drift between package.json and CHANGELOG.md, vocabulary, and the defects found. |
| How Claude Code drives a dynamic workflow | 2026-08-29 | The mechanics of Claude Code's Workflow tool, written from inside such a session, and what bullswarm adopted from it. |
| Caller-first workflow CLI | 2026-09-06 | The design for the caller-planned CLI shipped in 0.24.0, including the removal of bullswarm delegate. |
| Dynamic workflow handoff | 2026-08-21 | The iteration brief for making the workflow system behave like Claude Code's dynamic workflows without giving up provider routing or content verification. |
| Dynamic workflow acceptance evidence | 2026-08-27 | The acceptance run recorded against that handoff's criteria, accurate as of the date it was written. |
| Dynamic Workflow V2 execution plan | 2026-08-31 | The execution plan for the program-based V2 engine that replaced the authored graph. |
| Trending AI repository autonomy experiment | 2026-08-28 | Whether the checkout could autonomously plan, delegate, and implement work found in trending AI repositories. |
| Dogfood: bullswarm builds bullswarm | 2026-08-29 | Verbatim notes from the two dogfood runs that produced 0.14.0 (outputSchema plus planner refactor) and the 0.14.1 defects they exposed. |
Ultracode vs workflow goal | 2026-08-29 | A side-by-side of Claude's ultracode dynamic workflow and bullswarm workflow goal. |
| Workflow V2 component probes | 2026-08-31 | The component probes behind the V2 revision, with each acceptable revision checked against them. |
| Is the workflow system at ultracode quality? | 2026-09-06 | The evaluation behind the caller-planner change, written against 0.23.2 → 0.24.0 with every claim measured or labelled. |
| Custom provider configuration handoff | 2026-09-13 | A design discussion, not yet implemented, on letting a package user add their own provider without touching the repository. |
| Integration audit | 2026-08-31 | Whether Codex, Claude, and Grok can discover the Bullswarm skill, as read-only evidence at commit 8908ef8. |
| Planner prompt and context audit | 2026-08-29 | Whether the orchestrator/planner instruction set still made sense after the 0.11 → 0.14 iterations. |
| Portal token diet | 2026-09-09 | What transfers from Portal's token-diet claims to bullswarm — the policy of naming work worth a frontier model, not the plumbing. |
| Workflow agent usability audit | 2026-08-27 | Four isolated Node projects handed to four entry paths, and how usable the workflow surface proved for an agent. |
| Dynamic workflows design | 2026-08-21 | The design of the authored-graph engine removed in 0.27.0, kept for its rationale. |
| Shared program execution | 2026-09-07 | The proposal for the thin program executor — shared files, prompt-level territories, and a sole integrator after parallel work. |
