  • Automation management redesigned with task and calendar views, clearer schedules, and better run inspection.
  • Visible token usage and cache charts help you understand context consumption in real time.
  • Home-screen installation via PWA support brings nanobot to your device home screen.

New

  • Native terminal workbench with session switching and clipboard image pasting.
  • Side-by-side browser conversations with up to four resizable topic groups.
  • Task and calendar views for automation management.
  • DeepSeek Responses and V4 vision model support.
  • Eden AI and OrcaRouter gateway options.
  • AnySearch capability for broader search choices.
  • Optional macOS Seatbelt isolation for safer execution.
  • PWA home-screen installation on supported devices.

Improved

  • Automation job editing now preserves pending executions.
  • Context-compaction progress tracking with per-round token and cache charts.
  • File-read deduplication scoped to actual rounds for efficiency.
  • Paged history search for easier navigation of long conversations.
  • SkillHub discovery and portable Agent Plugins for clearer app and skill identities.
  • Remote MCP OAuth and token refresh for better connection management.
  • Telegram streaming support and Feishu onboarding improved.
  • Narrower composer controls and touch-friendly chart details for better mobile experience.

Fixed

  • Visible connection failures now reported clearly in apps and skills.
  • QQ attachments handled more safely.
  • Email authentication results now trusted and reliable.
  • Provider fallback made more resilient across model and search choices.
  • Sidebar ordering maintained when switching between browser conversations.
  • Settings navigation improved on small screens.

July 2026

1 release: 0.3.0

July brought nanobot from a development tool to a more complete agent platform, with a unified web interface, better coordination between agents, and expanded provider support. The focus shifted to operational stability and user control over long-running tasks.

Highlights

  • Single command setup: nanobot webui now handles local channel prep, gateway startup, browser launch, and guided first-time setup in one step.
  • Stronger web workbench with topic-style chats, model switching, quoted follow-ups, document attachments, and responsive settings.
  • Explicit long-running goals gated behind /goal command with clearer permissions, cancellation, timeouts, and heartbeat control.
  • New provider support including OpenCode Zen/Go, Kimi Coding, Grok OAuth, Parallel Search, and Serper.
  • Inline subagents can now consult within active tasks with authorization and typed runtime context.

New

  • nanobot webui command for one-step local setup, gateway launch, and browser-based guided configuration.
  • Inline subagents with consultation capability inside active tasks and authorization verification.
  • /goal command for explicit long-running task execution with permission gating and lifecycle control.
  • Live configuration reloads without restarts.
  • Native Neonize WhatsApp channel support.
  • Provider-scoped proxies for multi-provider environments.
  • Parallel Search and Serper search provider integrations.
  • Structured tool errors and richer MCP artifacts in runtime output.

Improved

  • Web workbench now supports topic-style chats, in-message model switching, and quoted follow-ups.
  • File inspection with syntax highlighting, live edit diffs, and better code copying.
  • Agent coordination without expanding core by using inline subagents and typed context.
  • Scheduled work reliability and session/exec state bounds for safer operation.
  • Cancellation ownership and restart/shutdown safety.
  • Mattermost, Feishu, Telegram, Discord, Matrix, and QQ channel behavior improved.
  • Authentication fallback stability across providers.
  • Channel setup flows clarified with optional dependencies.

Fixed

  • Multimodal tool output preservation in file activity tracking.
  • Faster CI execution through runtime optimization.
  • Cleaner fallback state display in web interface.
  • Copilot Enterprise OAuth and provider override handling.
  • Session state reliability for scheduled tasks.

June 2026

2 releases: 0.2.1 → 0.2.2

June brought nanobot from a chat interface to a full workbench with vastly expanded provider and channel support. Long-running agents became more stable, the Python SDK matured as a runtime, and security hardening made deployment safer.

Highlights

  • WebUI evolved from a chat surface into a daily workbench with live file editing, better activity rendering, and cleaner code display.
  • Long-running agent goals now stay alive longer with extended iteration budgets and per-session locking for multi-turn work.
  • Python SDK is now a first-class runtime with safer concurrent execution, explicit controls, and better lifecycle management.
  • Support expanded to dozens of new AI providers including Ant Ling, Skywork, Novita, and multiple image-generation services.
  • Channels gained real app behavior: Telegram got richer messages, Feishu added streaming recovery and table extraction, Discord got model slash commands.

New

  • CLI Apps as a way to connect CLI-native tools, unified with MCP through preset setup and capability mentions.
  • Web search coverage expanded to Firecrawl, Exa, Bocha, Keenable, and Volcengine.
  • Signal and Telegram webhook mode for new messaging channel support.
  • Segmented transcript storage in WebUI sessions keeps large conversations readable without losing old turns.
  • Fork and replay paths in session management preserve assistant replies more reliably.
  • Background and service controls in the gateway for better process management.
  • Shared voice input for transcription plus OpenRouter and StepFun providers.
  • Workspace write policy boundaries and safer MCP HTTP URL validation.

Improved

  • Long-running agent stability improved through sustained goal runner lifetime and extended goal iteration budget.
  • WebSocket token issuance now requires authentication.
  • Recent-history context is token-capped and idle auto-compaction is on by default.
  • Python SDK concurrent run() behavior is safer with cleaner per-run hook handling.
  • Redirect targets are validated before web fetches to prevent misuse.
  • IPv6-mapped IPv4 addresses are normalized in SSRF security checks.
  • Ctrl+C behavior and MCP stdio cleanup improved in gateway shutdown.
  • Discord slash commands now include model selection.

Fixed

  • Chinese rate-limit marker '访问量过大' is now recognized as a transient error.
  • Malformed history entries are skipped instead of breaking the agent.
  • History cursors are more reliable across session boundaries.
  • Dream now explains empty runs instead of failing silently.
  • Local provider endpoints bypass environment proxies while cloud endpoints still respect them.
  • Safer Telegram message fallback detection for richer message support.
