Toolchain 1.97.1 -> 1.98.0 (released 2026-08-18) in both `rust-toolchain.toml`
files, 33 pins across 5 CI workflows, and 26 workspace `rust-version`
declarations. Nothing pinned to 1.97 remains.
Dependencies refreshed in all 25 workspaces: 1,751 changes, every one
semver-compatible. The vendored `jouledesk-rs/vendor/libwebrtc` tree is
deliberately excluded — it is a patched vendor drop, not a managed dependency.
Note the `1.97` in `jouleclaw-loader-gguf/BENCHMARKS.md` is a benchmark timing
("1.97 ms"), not a version; a blind find-and-replace would have corrupted a
results table, so pins were matched by field rather than by string.
Also completes a cross-workspace regression this repo has been carrying. When
`budget_funds` and `caveats` were added to `jcp_schema::Grant`, the workspaces
that path-depend on `jcp-schema` were fixed one wave at a time, and three were
missed: `joule-ui`, `jouleclaw` and `mesh` still built `Grant` without the new
fields and had been failing to compile since. `cargo test --workspace` inside
`jcp-rs` never builds them, which is exactly why it went unseen; checking every
workspace independently is what surfaced it. Two of the six sites used field-init
shorthand (`budget_uj,` with no colon), so they needed a separate pass — a
reminder that a regex over initializers is not a substitute for compiling.
Verified: 21 of 25 workspaces `cargo check --workspace --all-targets` clean.
Not fixed here, and NOT caused by this change — each verified against the
pristine tree rather than assumed:
- `eoc/eoc-rs`: `RequestBuilder::query` is unavailable because reqwest is taken
with `default-features = false`, which drops the feature providing it.
reqwest is 0.13.4 before and after, and `serde_urlencoded` is absent from the
lock in both, so this predates the refresh. Fixing it is a choice between
enabling the feature and changing the call sites.
- `openpay`: `Hmac::new_from_slice` unresolved. hmac 0.12.1, digest 0.10.7 and
sha2 0.10.9 are identical before and after — same versions in, same result.
- `smart-byte/smart-byte-rs`: never resolved on main. Its manifest asked for two
features that do not exist (`rand_core`'s `alloc`, which no version has ever
had, and `cbc`'s `std`, where 0.2 offers `alloc`); both are corrected here,
which advances it from "will not resolve" to "will not compile" and exposes
the real problem — the manifest wants `rand = "0.10"` while the lock pinned
`rand 0.8.8` and 38 files still use the 0.8-era API (`thread_rng`,
`rand::rngs::OsRng`). That is a two-major-version source migration and wants
its own change, not a side effect of a toolchain bump.
`wai/wai-rs` needs libjxl present to build its default feature set; CI installs
`libjxl-dev`, so this is a local environment gap rather than a repo failure.

Smart Byte
A carrier for value. Settlement-agnostic, energy-attributed, no off switch.
The smart byte is not money — it is a vesicle (the cellular-biology sense): a content-addressed, signed envelope carrying exactly five things — identity (the blake3 hash of its origin attestation), provenance (the issuer's signed birth certificate), an ownership chain (signature-bound transitions), cargo (whatever value it represents — USD, joules, compute-hours, votes, attestations, claims; the substrate is agnostic), and a two-part joule cost (measured + estimated, cumulative over its life). Consensus is lockstep deterministic simulation with BFT supermajority commit; the substrate scales by federating many bounded clusters, not by growing one. It is TCP/IP for value: an open, application-agnostic carrier that any matching, clearing, or trust-signaling layer can build on.
The substrate is intentionally ownerless: no protocol-level token, permissive licensing on the spec text and reference code, conformance test vectors so any implementer can verify canonicity without a trust relationship with the authors. The protocol's identity lives in its conformance vectors and content-addressing, not in any brand. Transaction Science is one steward — it publishes the spec, ships a reference implementation, and operates commercial services around the substrate — not its proprietor.
