This update tightened three places where uncertainty was too expensive: whether a new agent was truly ready, whether a site build was still running, and whether a recurring agent update actually reached the user.
Agent Provisioning Became More Dependable
Agent setup now does more readiness work before treating a new agent as ready to use.
That reduces the chance of landing in an agent workspace that looks available but still lacks the basics needed for execution.
Site Logs Became Easier To Interpret
Site logs now distinguish empty output, still-running work, and finished builds more clearly.
The goal is a better answer to a common question: "Is this stuck, done, or still moving?"
Recurring Dispatch Is Treated As Real Work
Agent dispatch messages became a non-optional part of the recurring heartbeat flow.
When an agent is meant to report or ask, the system is stricter about making that communication happen instead of letting it disappear as a skipped side effect.
