v2.17.0

Added

Pushing a release tag now creates a draft GitHub release. The new draft-release.yml workflow builds the release notes from docs/version-history/<tag>.md and creates a draft, so a maintainer only has to open it, tick Publish this release to the GitHub Marketplace, choose the categories, and publish. Publishing to the Marketplace can only be done in the release web form (neither the REST API nor gh has an option for it), which is why the release is a draft and is never published automatically. A release that already exists for the tag is left alone, and a missing notes page falls back to generated notes.

Behavior change: the default Anthropic standard model is now claude-sonnet-5-5 (was claude-sonnet-5), at the same price ($2 / $10 per MTok, cache reads $0.20). Temperature is still omitted and effort is still capped at low for it, carried over from Sonnet 5. It was verified with the live model canary: 4 of 4 calls ended with end_turn on the 1200-line stress diff, for claude-sonnet-5-5 and claude-opus-5-5. Not verified: whether the low cap is necessary or optimal for Sonnet 5.5, and its non-default temperature behavior. To keep the previous model, set the model-standard: claude-sonnet-5 action input (or the AI_REVIEW_MODEL_STANDARD repository variable in the example workflow). AI_MODEL_STANDARD works only when running the container directly, because the action sets it from its inputs. The bedrock-proxy default is unchanged because the Bedrock model ID for Sonnet 5.5 is not verified.
The token table now labels Sonnet 5.5 correctly. config/model-pricing.json gets an explicit anchored Sonnet 5.5 row, and the Sonnet 5 pattern is anchored, so claude-sonnet-5-5 is no longer labeled Sonnet 5.

CLAUDE.md no longer says the container image tags are :vX.X.X. publish-image.yml publishes :X.Y.Z, :X.Y, :X and :latest, without a v prefix.
