LLMRagent 0.8.1

• Fixed archive privacy, pre-execution tool guardrails, per-round budgets, and governed-tool limits; kept only the supported user functions.
• Retrieval-memory embedding operations now pass the agent’s budget and are recorded in the trace as embed events; the model call is re-gated after any accounted work earlier in the same turn.
• save_agent() refuses a config carrying a literal API key instead of warning and writing the key to disk.
• The Agent R6 generator is internal; construct agents with agent().

LLMRagent 0.8.0

Initial CRAN release.

• Reproducible LLM agents built on ‘LLMR’: personas, native R tools, pluggable memory, and declared call, token, tool, and time budgets.
• Multi-agent conversations over a shared transcript, with turn-taking presets for debates, focus groups, interviews, and deliberations with votes; factorial experiments over those designs run in parallel and return tidy results.
• Provenance throughout: every run converts to one object with utterance, event, call, tool, and state views; a study manifest of content hashes; and a sealed replication archive whose call log reads back through ‘LLMR’.
• Governance: declared tool side effects, guardrails on inputs, outputs, and tool calls, human approval gates that pause and resume, and a governed Model Context Protocol client.
• A small workflow runtime with checkpoint, resume, fork, and hash-verified replay.
