Ponytail v4.11.0 fixes Agent Plugin loading issue

The ponytail software has released version 4.11.0, addressing an issue introduced in version 4.10.2. This prior change inadvertently caused applications like Codex, Visual Studio Code, and Qwen to load ponytail solely as an Agent Plugin. Consequently, the plugin's hooks failed to register, preventing its rules from reaching the model. The latest release reverts this change, restoring the full functionality of ponytail. AI

IMPACT This update resolves a bug affecting how the ponytail tool integrates with other AI applications like Codex, VS Code, and Qwen, ensuring proper functionality.

RANK_REASON This is a software update for a specific tool, not a frontier release, significant industry event, or research paper.
