 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [0.3.9] - 2026-04-22
+
+First release with working compiled binaries since v0.3.6. Both v0.3.7 and v0.3.8 were tagged but neither shipped release assets — v0.3.7 was blocked by two genuine binary-runtime bugs (Pi SDK's module-init crash + Bun `--bytecode` producing broken output), and v0.3.8 was blocked by an unrelated CI smoke-test regression where `release.yml`'s Claude resolver test required an `origin` remote that the fresh `git init` test repo didn't have. Both superseded tags remain for history; their GitHub Releases were deleted at the time of tagging so `releases/latest` fell back to v0.3.6 throughout, keeping `install.sh` and Homebrew safe. v0.3.9 is what users actually install.
+
+### Fixed

+- **Release binary smoke test no longer fails on the fresh `git init` test repo.** The Claude resolver smoke in `release.yml` ran `archon workflow run archon-assist` against a tempdir with no `origin` remote; as of #1310's worktree auto-sync logic this fails with "neither origin/HEAD nor origin/main exist" before the resolver is reached, so the CI assertion (`"Claude Code not found"` in output) never matched and the linux-x64 build aborted — taking the entire release matrix down via fail-fast. Adding `--no-worktree` to both the negative and positive resolver tests skips isolation, which is what the tests actually want: they exercise the Claude resolver path, not worktree setup. (#1357)
+
 ## [0.3.8] - 2026-04-22
 
-Hotfix for v0.3.7 — restore working compiled binaries. v0.3.7 was tagged but never shipped any working assets: two distinct bugs (Pi SDK's module-init `package.json` read, and Bun `--bytecode` producing broken output for this project's module graph) made every compiled archon binary crash at startup. The v0.3.7 GitHub Release was deleted immediately (the tag remains for history); v0.3.8 is the first release with working `archon-{darwin,linux}-{arm64,x64}` and `archon-windows-x64.exe` binaries since v0.3.6. Homebrew and `install.sh` were never updated to v0.3.7, so users were not exposed to the broken state.
+Tagged but never released. Intended as the hotfix for v0.3.7's binary-runtime crashes; the code fixes shipped in v0.3.9 actually originated here (Pi SDK module-init lazy-load, Bun `--bytecode` removal). v0.3.8's own release CI aborted on an unrelated smoke-test assertion in `release.yml` and no binaries were uploaded. The GitHub Release was deleted; the tag remains for history. See v0.3.9 for the release users actually install.
