Every release bundles features, improvements, and fixes that ship to everyone in the organisation. The newest release is at the top.

When a new extension version is ready, you’ll see a notice with an Update button — install whenever suits you. If you ignore it, the extension quietly upgrades itself the next time your computer is idle.

v2.7.2

April 21, 2026
  • featureAutomations are live — agents can now run on their own, not just when you ask. Pick how they fire and they'll handle the rest in their own dedicated thread, so you can always read back exactly what happened.
    • On a schedule — "every weekday at 9am", "first of the month", whatever cadence fits. The agent wakes up, does the task, and is there waiting for you when you check in.
    • From a webhook — POST JSON to a unique URL and the agent reads the payload and acts on it. Great for connecting Zapier, n8n, GitHub Actions, or anything else you already have.
    • From an email — every automation gets its own email address. Forward a message there and the agent reads it (subject, body, attachments) and replies.
    • From a /command — bind an automation to a shortcut so triggering it is a three-keystroke affair.
    • Run history for everything — every fire is recorded with when it happened, how long it took, whether it succeeded, and what the agent produced. Replay, inspect, or pick up a thread to keep chatting with the result.
    • Optional email notifications — flip a switch per automation and get an email when a run finishes.
  • featurePersonal preferences in one place — pick your timezone (so automations can schedule in your local time), save an email signature, write a short bio, choose whether the Thinking reasoning block is expanded by default, and toggle per-message cost estimates. All under Settings > Profile.
  • improvedBigger workspaces 🔥 — you've been putting them through their paces, so we've bumped sandbox capacity across the board. More memory, more disk, more room for agents to run heavy jobs without bumping into limits.
  • improvedSmarter long threads — instead of hitting the model's memory ceiling and breaking, long threads now quietly summarise older messages into a rolling memory and keep going. Where compaction happens, you'll see a small "Memory compacted" note on the message so you know the summary just refreshed. Older messages stay in the thread for your reference — only the model's working memory is condensed.
  • improvedReleases page redesign — the page you're on now. Cleaner hero, product guide and feedback links up top, centred timeline, tasteful ❤️ button on each release. We read every heart.
  • fixLong provider names no longer push the sign-in buttons off-screen — labels truncate cleanly with ellipsis.

v2.6.0

April 20, 2026
  • featureCommands — the things you type every day, now as a shortcut. Type something short like /ty or /followup in any text field on any website — Gmail, Slack, Jira, LinkedIn — and it expands into the full message. Stop re-typing the same replies, signatures, and boilerplate.
    • Manage them from Settings > Commands. Stuck on what to write? Draft a command with AI from a quick description.
    • Share commands with your whole organisation so the team stays consistent.
    • Off by default. Flip the master switch in the extension sidebar when you're ready — password and one-time-code fields are always skipped.
  • featureCommands can ask you for the details — add fields like "recipient name" or "deadline" to a command, and a tiny form pops up right next to your cursor when you trigger the shortcut. Personal fields (your name, email, role, organisation) auto-fill from your profile, so you never have to type your own signature again.
  • featureCommands that think — let the AI generate the text for you. Perfect for shortcuts like rewrite this more concisely, translate to French, or summarise the selected text — just highlight, type the shortcut, and keep working.
  • featureRequest a feature — there's now a button at the top of this page. It opens a short form that goes straight to the product team with your name attached, so we can follow up. The best things we've shipped all started there — please use it.
  • featureDatabricks integration — connect your Databricks workspace from Settings > Credentials. The assistant can run SQL queries, explore Unity Catalog tables, and access workspace resources using your personal access token.
  • improvedEvery settings page has a detail drawer — click a workspace, skill, credential, or agent and a side panel slides in with everything about it in one place, plus the actions you need (pause, resume, disconnect, delete). No more hunting through nested pages for the right button.
  • improvedSettings that feel the same everywhere — every page in Settings now shares the same header, info card, and toolbar, so once you know one, you know them all.
  • improvedLess disruptive extension updates — new versions no longer reload in the middle of what you're doing. When an update is ready, you'll see a small notice with an Update button so you can install on your own terms — and if you ignore it, the extension quietly upgrades itself next time your computer is idle.
  • improvedYour answers survive our deployments — when we ship a new version of the assistant, ongoing chat completions are no longer cut off mid-sentence. The server now finishes any answer it's currently writing before shutting down, and if a connection does drop, the extension shows a small "Connection lost, resuming…" notice and picks up automatically — so you get your full answer instead of a truncated one.
  • fixSign-in hiccups in the extension are fixed. Expired tokens now refresh silently in the background, so chat and commands keep working without asking you to re-authenticate.

v2.5.1

April 17, 2026
  • featureDrag & drop — drag threads onto project folders to move them, and drag project folders to reorder them.

  • improvedWorkspace — extended execution timeouts from 5/10 minutes to 30 minutes for both Python and shell commands, so long-running data jobs complete without interruption.
  • improvedWorkspace — clear timeout error messages. When a command or script exceeds the time limit, the assistant now explains what happened and suggests how to fix it instead of showing a raw error.
  • fixFixed long-running workspace commands dropping with "network error" — added SSE keepalive pings to prevent idle connection timeouts from load balancers and proxies.

v2.2.2

March 27, 2026
  • featurePrompt queue — send multiple messages while the assistant is still generating. They are queued and executed sequentially once the previous response completes.
