Release v0.0.59

This week, 3DVR became much more like a personal operating system you can actually live inside. Companion gained a secure direct phone-control path and its first Android Assistant voice loop, Operator moved onto the Portal homepage with native Forge permissions, encrypted Workspace sync made project context portable, the free website promise became truly free with automated fulfillment, and open source expanded into everyday physical life.

• Phone control became a real platform: Companion added Keystore-backed relay credentials, authenticated foreground-service connectivity, bounded remote app and HTTPS URL actions, signed self-updating Android releases, and a first Assistant voice round trip where a request such as “Open Maps” resolves through the same constrained capability system and leaves a visible receipt. See PR #1528, PR #1534, PR #1536, PR #1542, and PR #1566.
• Operator became the front door: the Portal homepage was simplified around Operator, then upgraded into a real context-aware chat surface with persistent conversation history, clearer mobile reconnect behavior, and direct links to exact Forge records. Approved 3DVR accounts can sign code-change requests with SEA and route them through native 3DVR Forge without making GitHub identity part of the permission contract. See PR #1667, PR #1678, PR #1693, PR #1713, and PR #1722.
• Project context can travel with you: the new 3DVR Workspace adds encrypted cross-device projects, threads, project memory, agent-run handoffs, and Codex/OpenClaw handoff tools on top of the existing Portal identity and GUN relay. See PR #1623.
• The free website promise is actually free: Free Page now promises a basic live 3DVR-hosted one-page site at no charge, while the fulfillment system grew from mailbox checks into an event-driven IMAP path with bounded worker execution, layered fallbacks, deduplication, merge-safe publishing, live-URL verification, and in-thread delivery. See PR #1546, PR #1606, PR #1609, and PR #1651.
• The agent stack learned to stay alive: the worker, inbox, autopilot, heartbeat, and Context HQ router were joined into one continuously running stack, then given guarded self-healing and a public Alive health dashboard. OpenClaw health checks now go beyond process reachability to model-turn health. See PR #1614, PR #1617, PR #1618, and PR #1622.
• Open source moved beyond software: the Human Value Network helps people map useful skills into mutual economic resilience, while 3DVR Linen and Open Source Everyday Life establish repairable clothing and physical goods as first-class open projects, including a printable all-linen drawstring-pants pattern. See PR #1570, PR #1583, PR #1584, and PR #1585.
• Work Agent started becoming reusable: the first 3DVR Work Agent shell captures freelance AV roles, rates, market, and agent rules, while an encrypted tenant credential-store core prepares for safe Gmail/Calendar-backed workflows without exposing refresh tokens. See PR #1655 and PR #1657.
• Development got less wasteful: production deployment was narrowed toward deliberate main-only changes while low-load machine previews became opt-in and independently verifiable, reducing unnecessary Vercel churn while keeping a path to real browser testing. See PR #1674, PR #1696, and PR #1706.
