PatchBrake v0.2.0

PatchBrake v0.2.0

PatchBrake v0.2.0 is a trust-hardening release for the local AI-generated patch safety gate.

Highlights

• Adds runtime config validation with fail-fast errors for invalid rule levels, output formats, ignore entries, overrides, and size limits.
• Adds CI safety switches: --no-custom-rules, --disallow-inline-ignore, and --fail-on-new-ignore.
• Hardens the GitHub Action defaults: custom rules are disabled, inline ignores do not suppress findings, and newly added patchbrake-ignore* comments fail CI.
• Expands GitHub Actions permission coverage for current GITHUB_TOKEN write scopes such as issues, pages, statuses, attestations, artifact-metadata, code-quality, and discussions.
• Makes reportTimings control text and JSON timing output.
• Improves README onboarding with Node/npm/Git prerequisites and clearer user/developer command separation.
