DeepCode changelog: what's new each month

Every stable DeepCode release summarised by month: the highlights, new features, improvements, fixes and anything you need to act on. 3 months covered; the current month updates daily.

September 2026

2 releases: 2.2.0 → 2.3.0

September brought major stability improvements to DeepCode's session handling, expanded the product across three interfaces, and added new security boundaries. The month featured both foundational reliability work and new user-facing capabilities like dictation and multi-provider support.

Highlights

  • Sessions now preserve agent actions and state across reconnections, with on-demand compaction and proper context pressure measurement.
  • DeepCode now runs as a single local service accessible through Desktop, Web, and CLI interfaces with shared model connections.
  • Added dictation support for composing prompts via speech transcription in Desktop and Web clients.
  • Memory injection now uses escaped boundaries to prevent prompt injection attacks from corrupted notes.
  • Support for additional model providers including Opper and Amazon Bedrock, with accurate token window and pricing for DeepSeek V4.

New

  • Dictation blocks in config enable speech-to-text transcription via Parakeet server or local parakeet-mlx.
  • DeepCode Web interface connecting to the shared local background service.
  • Sub-agents can delegate to Codex or Claude Code, with native follow-up conversations and lazy MCP server activation.
  • Per-model declarations with live model discovery, context windows, and reasoning ladder configuration.
  • Opper and Amazon Bedrock added to model provider templates.
  • Opt-in egress control to limit which hosts receive prompts via providers.egress configuration.
  • MEMORY.md can now be a short index with on-demand file reading, keeping memory deduplicated and within budget.
  • Desktop app localized to Simplified Chinese with eight themes including high-contrast mode.

Improved

  • Terminal interface now shows status line and tool cards, with selectors for bare commands and preserved prompt cache across turns.
  • Session locking prevents multiple active writers from crashing each other when opening the same session in multiple windows.
  • Model connections are now tested for streaming and tool call support before using custom services.
  • Context pressure measured by actual usage reported by service providers rather than estimates.
  • Desktop appearance scaling now properly resizes the entire application.
  • Project switching no longer strands the MCP catalog.
  • Drag-to-resize conversation edge, import VS Code color themes, and select from actually-installed fonts in Desktop.
  • SQLite locking improved when multiple DeepCode processes share the state database.

Fixed

  • Memory data boundary now catches every spelling variation of its closing tag.
  • Native file operations routed through sandbox; Windows private files protected by fail-safe ACL.
  • Command-executor bypasses closed and hardened.
  • Plugin manifests now warn about plaintext credentials.
  • Plugin manifests receive warnings about insecure patterns.

August 2026

2 releases: 2.0.0 → 2.1.0

August brought major improvements to task execution reliability and verification in DeepCode 2.0, followed by critical fixes and infrastructure updates in 2.1.

Highlights

  • Tasks now complete end-to-end without getting stuck midway through execution.
  • Code delivery is now verified through actual test runs, builds, and runtime checks.
  • Automated workflows handle regression checks, test repairs, and repository maintenance without manual intervention.
  • Detailed workflow errors now surface in the UI for better debugging.

New

  • Loop Engineering for managing complex task execution
  • Execution control throughout task workflows
  • Verified delivery system that validates code through testing and builds
  • Personalized Automation capabilities
  • Unified CLI and Desktop experience

Improved

  • Windows file access permissions restored to prevent broken builds
  • Workflow error reporting now shows detailed information in the interface
  • Backend route handling improved to prevent path traversal issues

Fixed

  • Tasks no longer stop halfway through and require manual restarts
  • Code verification now includes actual test execution and runtime validation
  • LoopDetector and ProgressTracker imports corrected
  • SPA catch-all route security vulnerability patched

July 2026

1 release: 1.3.0

July brought a major unification of DeepCode's architecture across all interfaces, introducing sophisticated agent capabilities like autonomous loops, team collaboration, and enhanced security controls.

Highlights

  • Unified agent runtime and event protocol across CLI, Web, and headless modes.
  • Added interactive CLI with native coding tools and persistent sessions.
  • Introduced permission controls, security sandboxing, and tool approval workflows.
  • Enabled autonomous loops, scheduled tasks, and parallel team collaboration.
  • Added project memory and long-context management for extended conversations.

New

  • Interactive CLI interface for agent interaction.
  • Native programming tools integrated into the agent.
  • Persistent session support to maintain state across runs.
  • Project memory system for retaining context.
  • Autonomous loop execution and scheduled task support.
  • Parallel team collaboration and multi-agent coordination.
  • Permission controls and security sandboxing.
  • Skills system and lifecycle hooks for customization.

Improved

  • Long-context management for handling extended conversations.
  • Workspace isolation for improved security.
  • Tool approval workflow for controlled execution.
  • Support for starting and resuming DeepCode from any directory.
  • Hierarchical configuration system.
  • Model-driven sub-agent collaboration.
