SHAFT 10.3.20260717

Auto-generated release notes are included below. Users upgrading from SHAFT_ENGINE should read the modular SHAFT upgrade guide.

SHAFT Pilot adds deterministic Capture, TestNG generation, Doctor diagnosis, reviewed repair proposals, and MCP interoperability. AI is optional, disabled by default, and direct OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or Ollama access requires explicit enablement and consent. Microsoft/GitHub Copilot integrates through MCP rather than a generic provider API-key adapter.

See the SHAFT Pilot guide for installation, configuration, privacy, troubleshooting, and usage examples.
