This release starts the shift from `1.0.18` hardening to visible feature growth.
The goal is to keep compatibility work steady while shipping personality and capability slices that make OpenJibo feel less like a placeholder cloud and more like a real assistant platform.
## Snapshot
- Kickoff date: `2026-05-05`
- Cloud version source of truth: [OpenJiboCloudBuildInfo.cs](../src/Jibo.Cloud/dotnet/src/Jibo.Cloud.Application/Services/OpenJiboCloudBuildInfo.cs)
- Active release constant: `1.0.19`
## Scope
### 1. Persona And Identity Surface
- add natural voice responses for robot identity/personality prompts
- start building reusable content hooks for question-vs-command style responses
- keep first implementation rule-based and test-backed
### 2. Reliability And Device Proof
- complete update/backup/restore proof path with captures and operator docs
- continue alarm/gallery/yes-no cleanup from `1.0.18` evidence where regressions are still open
- improve short-turn STT reliability and low-signal screening
### 3. Pegasus-To-Cloud Platform Porting
- prioritize small source-backed slices from Pegasus/JiboOS that can be shipped safely
- keep Nimbus and stock payload compatibility as the release guardrail
- avoid broad subsystem rewrites without tests and live-capture evidence
### 4. Holidays And Seasonal Personality
- port holiday-aware personality responses as a visible extension of the new persona slice
- start with a small, source-backed set (for example birthdays/holidays already represented in legacy data paths)
- ensure holiday responses feel characterful while still routing through stock-compatible payloads
### 5. Multi-Tenant Memory Storage Foundation
- define tenant boundaries across account, loop, device, and person-memory records
- add storage abstractions that can move from in-memory/local JSON to hosted SQL/Blob without reworking behavior layers
- implement memory-ready schemas and repository contracts for user facts (names, birthdays, personal dates, preferences) with strict tenant scoping
## First Implemented Slice In `1.0.19`
The first delivered slice in this release is persona expansion:
-`how old are you`
-`when's your birthday`
-`do you have a personality`
-`make a pizza`
`make a pizza` is now wired to the legacy scripted-response identity (`RA_JBO_MakePizza`) with pizza-making animation ESML, based on the original skill manifests.
This slice is intentionally small and user-visible. It creates immediate personality gains while we keep deeper platform work in parallel.
