## What to do

1. In a project that syncs codex with cline, kiro, qoder, kilo, or augment, run `agnostic-ai sync` . It removes the rule copies those tools no longer need, and`sync --check` reports them until you do.
2. If `sync --global` stops on a hand-written hook that shares a source hook's matcher and command, remove that entry or make it match the source (one entry per hook).
3. If `sync` fails on a Codex skill's bundled`agents/openai.yaml` , make that file a YAML mapping (one file per skill).

Nothing else needs action.

## What changed

- Exec-form hooks on Codex, Gemini, and Cursor now run `node 'guard.js'` instead of a bare`node` (#1229, #1230).
- Hooks see `AGNOSTIC_AI_TARGET` , so one shared script knows which tool ran it (#1226).
- `requires: ">=0.70.0"` in`agnostic-ai.yaml` stops an older binary before it writes anything (#1214).

Full details are in the [GitHub release notes](https://github.com/Chemaclass/agnostic-ai/releases/tag/v0.70.0).
