⚜︎ AethelLib 1.0.4 Tooling Overhaul & minor patch — 5/21/26

✦ Added

• - tools/ Build Suite Dedicated directory for all development, build, and release scripts — fully separated from addon source.

• - tools/unix/ (macOS & Linux) Pure Python 3 scripts (pack.py, release.py, deploy.py) with zero external dependencies and ANSI color banners. Completes macOS and Linux support.

• - tools/dos/ (CMD) Batch file equivalents (pack.bat, release.bat, deploy.bat) for Windows Command Prompt. Completes the OS Trinity: PowerShell / Python / Batch.

• - Interactive Confirmation Banners All scripts display a color-coded operation summary at launch. [ENTER] to proceed, [Ctrl+C] to abort.

• - Auto-Release Odometer Engine Base-10 version incrementer across all release scripts. Reads manifest.json, rolls patch → minor → major, and writes the updated version to the header and all module nodes atomically.

• - Ship Payload Output Versioning Shipment scripts now read the active version from manifest.json and output versioned files (AethelLib(1.0.x).txt) instead of static filenames.

✦ Fixed

• - Critical: Kernel Import Failure — ReferenceError: Import [core/Kernel.js] not found Addon booted correctly on BDS but failed on live World install via .mcaddon. The Bedrock GDK client resolves imports relative to the scripts/ root, not the calling file. Bare paths (core/Kernel.js) worked on BDS but were rejected by the GDK runtime. Rewrote all cross-module imports to use explicit relative prefixes (./, ../). Addon now loads without errors in both BDS and World environments.

✦ Changed

• - tools/linux/ → tools/unix/ Renamed to reflect that the Python suite is compatible with both macOS and Linux, not Linux-only.

• - tools/README.md Public Cleanup Removed all references to private tooling. Added cross-reference links to unix/ and dos/ sub-READMEs.
