September 2026
2 releases: 0.1.6 → 0.1.8
September brought significant stability and performance improvements to Fuxi, with unified message handling, hardened authentication, and major rendering optimizations that dramatically reduce lag and load times.
Highlights
- Message handling consolidated into a single model to eliminate inconsistencies and preserve conversation chains.
- Long sessions now load 10x faster with optimized storage and rendering, reducing cold first frame from 1.6s to 160ms.
- Login flow hardened with serialized token refresh to prevent forced re-login and session interruptions.
- Streaming render performance improved 96x for large content by fixing linkify algorithm.
- Plugin marketplace now served from official mirror for more stable and reliable installs.
New
- Model selection validation that checks if chosen model is supported by current endpoint.
- Rate-limit banners unified with subscription data, showing usage and overages clearly.
- Permission dialog now uses numbered Select list with "Always Allow" showing exact persisted rules.
- Official GCS mirror for plugin marketplace.
- Fast-path read for sessions larger than 5MiB using 1MB sequential chunks.
- Notification queue with priority levels: immediate, later, and next.
Improved
- Empty responses automatically retry via non-streaming requests.
- Proactive token refresh before expiry prevents forced re-login.
- CJK character-width handling in markdown rendering.
- Bash and Windows command-line parsing unified to reduce misclassification.
- Session resume now reads transcript only once, reducing time from 4.6s to 0.8s on 34MB files.
- Scrolling performance improved through estimated scroll offsets and eliminated filesystem syscalls.
- Message parentUuid chains now fully link all participants with automatic re-linking after forks.
- Low-risk file commands (mkdir/cp/mv/touch/rmdir) now relaxed in permission rules.
Fixed
- Repeated injection of external file changes and conditional memory in engine.
- Chat lag on huge content; streaming output no longer appears non-streaming.
- Linkify O(n²) full-render issue causing 278ms delays on 20KB single lines.
- Nested-heredoc crash on Bash.
- Garbled text from subprocess output on Windows with strict UTF-8 handling.
- Grep content checks and UNC path handling.
