Helm 0.5.10 is a hardening patch release focused on keeping context and query inspection usable when local workspace state is partially malformed.
- hardened context source loading so malformed
.helm/context_sources.jsondata degrades safely - hardened query readers so corrupted local memory or state artifacts do not abort inspection paths
- expanded regression coverage around malformed context and query-state handling
Helm is most useful when it can still inspect a workspace that is not perfectly clean. This release keeps the operator-facing context and query paths available even when a saved artifact is damaged or only partially written.
The focus is narrow and practical:
- treat malformed state as localized damage
- preserve visibility into the rest of the workspace
- avoid requiring manual state cleanup before inspection can continue
This is a patch release. The main change is safer degradation under imperfect local state.
