Release notes

Upgrade to the community core based on upstream v0.21, with a unified Software Update experience and fixes for gateway startup, history backups, and profile switching.

• New Add a unified Software Update page, update notices, and a status-bar entry. Review release notes, download when ready, and choose when to apply the update.
• Improved Keep working during downloads. Updates that require a restart wait for affected tasks to finish, and Remind me later suppresses the same update notice for 24 hours.
• Improved Keep channels, nightly builds, custom sources, testing configuration, component updates, and rollback under collapsed Advanced update options, preserving existing settings.
• Fixed Fix Windows gateway startup crashes, missing chat history in backups, profiles staying offline or failing to resume conversations, and identical replies merging across turns.
• Fixed Fix clarification choices, tool discovery and terminal resources in packaged runtimes, and scheduled scripts. First-time model setup now selects the recommended provider correctly.
• Improved Require macOS 14 or later, with Developer ID signed and Apple-notarized installers. Windows in-app updates use the project's production signing key for verification.

The 0.7.0 stable release introduces a new workbench, external-memory setup and monitoring, browser companion mode, and smoother profile and session workflows, powered by runtime-v0.19.0-cn.7.

• New Launch a redesigned workbench that brings runtime health, recent sessions, workspaces, boards, and task shortcuts together.
• New Add setup and monitoring pages for OpenViking and Hindsight, including component health, memory distribution, model usage, and processing queues.
• New Add browser companion mode for securely connecting to the desktop-managed core with live connection status.
• Improved Add quick profile switching and make profile changes, gateway restarts, and persisted UI settings more reliable.
• Improved Improve model selection, session export, and coding-agent delegation, and restore reasoning-effort controls in the new-task composer.
• Fixed Upgrade to runtime-v0.19.0-cn.7, fixing OpenViking / Hindsight provider discovery in packaged builds and keeping memory setup and verification inside the active desktop-managed profile.

A major core upgrade plus the first portable edition: unzip and run with all data kept inside the extracted folder; reasoning effort gains a max level, and duplicate-bubble chat issues are fixed.

• New Upgrade the core to runtime-v0.18.2-cn.1 (aligned with upstream v0.18.2), adopting the new protocol surface such as tool.generating events, plus a Z.AI international preset.
• New New portable edition (Windows / macOS zip): unzip and run with no registry writes or AppData leftovers — all data stays in the data folder inside the extracted directory, great for USB drives and isolated environments; upgrade by unzipping over it and keeping data.
• New Reasoning effort now supports a max level.
• New New MoA display: reference models render in blocks with aggregation status, and a moa virtual provider joins the model picker.
• New Add in-place editing, per-project worktree isolation, and a Git review pane.
• Fixed Fix completed turns rendering as duplicate bubbles, with merged-turn stats now landing on the final reply row.

A big experience upgrade: a new MCP management panel, rewritten UI copy, a bundled Chinese font and interface scaling, plus multiple performance gains for a smoother, friendlier app.

• New New official MCP management panel — add/edit/remove, enable/disable, test connections, and browse the directory.
• New Rewrite the UI copy from a developer angle into plain, end-user-friendly language.
• New Bundle the HarmonyOS Sans SC font for consistent, crisp Chinese text.
• New Add an interface scaling setting and improve text legibility on Windows.
• New Add a GLM-5.2 quick-pick and refresh the domestic provider model lists.
• New Align the desktop Profile with the official dashboard for a consistent setup.
• Improved Pre-warm the agent and coalesce streaming deltas for snappier, smoother chat.
• Improved Remove the artificial ~450ms delay on model save/switch and stop refetching the Models page on window focus.
• Improved Send image attachments through the gateway for more reliable uploads.
• Improved Inject the bundled Node runtime and prebuilt TUI into spawned processes for a more stable environment.
• Fixed Re-pin the chat timeline to the bottom when the composer or window resizes.
• Fixed Tolerate missing or unexpected fields in search, status, and file-list responses.

A milestone release: a global command palette, a revamped composer (/skill, @ mentions, send queue), voice input and a setup wizard, a subagent monitor, remote connections, and desktop notifications — plus a WS-only gateway rewrite aligned with the official architecture for a more capable, stabler app.

• New Revamped composer: /skill namespaces, @ mentions, a URL input dialog, and a send queue.
• New A global command palette to quickly search and run actions.
• New Add voice input and a first-run setup wizard for an easier start.
• New An in-chat subagent monitor panel to track sub-tasks in real time.
• New A hideable rich-preview right rail in task detail (files, images, links).
• New Manual /compress context compaction to save tokens in long conversations.
• New A reasoning-effort selector to balance speed and quality on demand.
• New Override a model’s context window size in settings.
• New Connect to a remote Hermes Agent as a shell with token authentication.
• New Desktop notifications for task completion and approval requests.
• New Rich link previews, image saving, one-click code-block copy, a per-session sidebar action menu, and skeleton screens on session switch.
• Improved Rewrite the gateway connection layer to WS-only, aligned with the official desktop architecture.
• Improved A task-level stall watchdog that detects and handles wedged provider turns.
• Improved Resolve the effective PATH from the login shell/registry so spawned tools run reliably.
• Fixed Switch scheduled-task delivery targets to channels available in China.
• Fixed Stop streaming render after a manual interrupt; restore the per-session workspace when switching.
• Fixed Fix the Windows bundled-runtime first-launch smoke check and Tauri packaged asset path resolution.
