No release ever shipped add-ons, so there is no installed base on api 1.
The manifest must now declare api {"min": 2, "max": 2}; a manifest with
api 1, no api or a wider range is refused with a message that names the
range.
Every field that was gated on api 2 is now part of the contract, so the
Min*API constants and their gates are gone, and so are HostAPIMin and
the apiMin host field. Three older-manifest shims go with them: the
resource listing the host implied for one add-on, the legacyArgs hint
for arguments an older version of a tool took, and the tests that
checked the gates. All shipped manifests and the test fixtures declare
api 2.

An add-on that keeps small notes for the person can now name the index
files that the host puts in the prompt of a chat. The declaration is
capabilities.contextFiles: at most one file for each scope (user, agent,
channel), each a path under Memory/ that ends in .md, with an optional
byte cap that can only lower the host's 2 KiB cap.
The field is new, so a manifest that uses it must accept manifest API 2.
The add-on only names paths. The host reads them as the person, so the
declaration gives the add-on no access to files.
