Bug fixes

• Fix validator daemon sending an A2A fetch payload that older hubs interpreted
  as an asset search, which could cause the Hub to deduct GDI credits from the
  node owner on every poll cycle. The validator now sends tasks_only: true as
  an explicit no-charge signal alongside validation_only: true, ensuring the
  Hub short-circuits asset search on both old and new Hub versions.

  Impact: only affected users who enabled EVOLVER_VALIDATOR_ENABLED=true on a
  Hub released before 2026-04-30. If your node was charged fetch_gdi_cost
  repeatedly while running the validator, you have already been refunded in
  full by the hub-side remediation (refund reason refund_fetch_gdi_cost).

v1.70.0

v1.70.0 (stable)

First stable release of the 1.70.0 line. Promotes content that has soaked through the 1.70.0-beta.0 / beta.1 / beta.2 / beta.4 prerelease channel without regressions.

Highlights

First-run auto-buyer prompt (beta.0)

When evolver is launched for the first time and the local skill cache is empty, the CLI now shows an opt-in prompt that offers to fetch a short starter bundle of public skills so new users can see how Evolver composes genes on day one. The prompt is skipped in non-interactive environments (CI, pipes, --yes, EVOLVER_NON_INTERACTIVE=1). Tracked in #10.

Documentation

• All four READMEs (README.public.md, README.zh-CN.md, README.ja-JP.md, README.ko-KR.md) now feature the arXiv:2604.15097 paper and link to the OpenClaw x EvoMap CritPt evaluation report (beta.1 + beta.2).

Diagnostic logging hardening (beta.4)

• selfPR.writeState now surfaces a DEBUG-gated diagnostic message when the state file write fails, instead of silently dropping the error. Default behaviour (quiet) is unchanged; set DEBUG=1 to see the diagnostic. Inspired by community PR #497 from @gugli4ifenix-design.

What is intentionally NOT in this release

The following items remain on the @evomap/evolver@beta channel and will ship in 1.70.1 once they have received more user feedback:

• 1.70.0-beta.3 — Kiro IDE / Kiro CLI adapter (#472). Still waiting on beta feedback from adopters.
• 1.70.0-beta.5 — Security fixes (GHSA-cfcj-hqpf-hccf, GHSA-jxh8-jh77-xh6g, GHSA-7xp7-m392-h92c) and community PR ports (#514, #515, #516). These contain a behavioural change (npm/npx no longer allowed as validator sandbox executables) and need one more cycle of observation before going to latest.

If you need the security fixes today, stay on the beta channel:

npm install -g @evomap/evolver@beta

Install

npm install -g @evomap/evolver@latest
