Changelog
Features, fixes, and improvements shipped in every release.
v2.8.10
Features
- 🤖 Model and effort aware chips now work reliably across harnesses
- 🔗 Codex workers connect more reliably — AgentGrid reads the session ID directly from Codex instead of guessing it.
- 🔍 A new scale setting lets you resize the app to fit your screen and workflow.
- 🛠️ A new `create_role` MCP tool lets you define roles programmatically; `list_roles` now marks where each role came from.
- 💾 The app saves your window position and size and restores them every time you launch.
- 🪟 A Windows 11 ARM build is now available.
Fixes
- 🟠 The orange activity dot is restored and the unread count stays alongside it.
Improvements
- 📐 The main render is split into measured spans, making it easier to spot where time is spent.
v2.8.9
Features
- 🔎 Click a worker's role chip to read what it is allowed to do. Masters can write a short description when they invent a role, so a label like "devops engineer" is not a dead end.
- 📬 Finished is no longer a ten-minute timer. Masters stay unread until you open them; workers stay working or idle.
- 🌳 Explorer parents pick up descendant activity, so a group row still shows that a child is working when you are zoomed out.
Fixes
- 🟠 A running worker's header has one activity signal. The extra bare status dot next to the pill is gone.
- 🧹 The "managed" pill is gone. The canvas connector and explorer nesting already say who the parent is.
Improvements
- 🏷️ Dev instances show a prefix-first name in the macOS app switcher, so two checkouts no longer look identical when you alt-tab.
v2.8.8
Features
- Configurable idle shutdown (--idle-shutdown-ms, 0 disables)
- Opt-in loopback peers for remote devices (--allow-local-forward)
- Retire legacy admin pages, add profile navigation
- User-selectable working, finished, and terminal colors
- Dark-mode sign-in handoff pages
- Pane focus history on Alt+Arrow + Tab/Escape content focus
- Agent_task_completed, agent_spawned, workspace_created
Fixes
- Make desktop retries recover safely
- Time out the lifetime telemetry probe
- Audit every PII-exposing MCP read
- Accessible muted text on chrome and card surfaces
- Make per-user telemetry queries complete and honestly windowed
- GSC OIDC token via platform request header
- Pill reads working… while a turn runs
- Security hardening (read-only prod reads, TLS, MCP token expiry)
Improvements
- Load each theater's data only when it renders
- Retention and daily rollup for metric ticks
- Cache metric reads, invalidate hard on every sync tick
- Batched metric reads, streamed user detail, bounded pool
v2.8.7
Features
- 🐧 Native aarch64 (arm64) Linux builds — AgentGrid now runs without emulation on arm64 machines.
- 🎛️ Configure effort per worker, so you can dial reasoning up for hard tasks and down for cheap mechanical passes.
- ⏱️ In-progress worker turns show a live elapsed timer, so you can see at a glance how long something has been running.
- 🌙 Background-daemon toggle in Settings → Advanced.
Fixes
- 🔁 Resuming a Codex session no longer fails with "thread already has an active writer".
- 💤 A worker's working/idle state now survives the pane being unmounted, so returning to a pane shows its real status.
- 🖱️ The spawn menu's active row no longer jitters horizontally as you move the mouse across it.
Improvements
- 🔄 Updated the bundled agent SDKs.
- 📚 Product docs now carry the full release history.
v2.8.6
Features
- 🚀 Install a harness and log in to it directly inside AgentGrid — no terminal required.
Fixes
- 🖱️ Right-clicking a parked pane placeholder in the sidebar now reliably opens a context menu.
- 📋 The first message you sent to a Codex agent now shows up correctly in the transcript when it was captured as an event.
v2.8.5
Fixes
- ⌨️ **F2 rename now works dependably on every pane** — clicking a pane's header hands the keyboard to that pane, so F2 renames what you see selected instead of silently going to whatever terminal or editor you touched last. Claude, Codex, and OpenCode panes rename properly too.
- 🎯 Clicks near the top edge of a pane's header now register — the invisible resize strip that quietly swallowed them selects the pane like a header click.
- 🖱️ Dragging a multi-selection with a terminal in it no longer lets that terminal grab the keyboard mid-drag, and off-screen terminals no longer steal focus as the canvas pans.
- 🔁 Codex panes no longer retry empty turns when a reply closes without a visible summary.
- 🐛 macOS updates from v2.8.3 now relaunch reliably with existing tabs, themes, settings, authentication, and workspace state intact.
- 🐛 Worker transcripts stay aligned correctly when focused.
- 📊 Usage meters only poll harnesses whose CLIs are actually installed.
- 🎨 The Codex logo keeps its blue accent in dark mode for clearer visual identification.
Features
- 🤝 Masters can spawn workers from any installed AI harness and choose the right model for each role.
- ✏️ Press F2 to rename the selected pane on every platform, including browser, note, code, and worker panes — the right-click menu shows the shortcut, and it stays accurate if you rebind the key.
v2.8.4
Features
- 🤝 Masters can spawn workers from any installed AI harness and choose the right model for each role, making mixed-agent teams easy to assemble from one canvas.
- ✏️ Press F2 to rename the selected pane on every platform, including browser, note, code, and worker panes.
Fixes
- 🐛 Visual fix for worker transcripts when focused
- 🎨 The Codex logo now keeps its blue accent in dark mode for clearer visual identification.
v2.8.3
Features
- 🌤️ Light mode is fully polished and QA'd across every component — colors, contrast, and spacing now look right everywhere, not just in the happy path.
v2.8.2
Improvements
- ⚡️⚡️⚡️ 10x or more speed up on large workspaces, more efficient memory usage and cpu usage. This also avoids crashes due to memory
- 🦾 Improve robustness of saving workspaces to avoid data-loss and corruption in multiple race-condition cases
v2.8.1
Fixes
- 📋 **Ctrl+V now pastes in terminal panes on Windows and Linux** — no more reaching for Ctrl+Shift+V. Text pastes exactly as before; with an image on the clipboard, Agent Grid saves it and pastes the file's path so agent TUIs can pick it up.
- 🖼️ Pasting an image into a Claude Code pane now attaches the actual image — Claude shows `[Image #1]` instead of a file path, with nothing written to disk.
- 🖐️ Holding Ctrl for a global hotkey (like push-to-talk dictation) no longer leaves the canvas stuck in pan mode — pan releases itself the moment Ctrl is genuinely up, on macOS Option-pan too.
- 🛡️ Pasted clipboard text is now delivered bracketed and sanitized on both paste shortcuts, so multi-line content from a webpage can't auto-run in your shell.
Improvements
- 🎨 Every harness now shows its real brand logo, with proper light and dark variants — Claude, OpenAI, Cursor, Devin, Grok, Kimi, opencode, Antigravity, and Pi.
v2.8.0
Features
- 🖐️ **Hold Option to pan the canvas** — drag, middle-click, or scroll from anywhere on the canvas, including over live browser panes. Either Option key works on macOS; on Windows and Linux the pan key is Ctrl, matching what those platforms expect. Space goes back to being ordinary terminal input.
- 🗂️ Add "Collapse all" and "Expand all" to the right-click sidebar menu.
Fixes
- 🔑 Grok workers no longer fail with "Not signed in" — signing in from a Grok master pane now shares those credentials with every worker it spawns.
- 🔍 Zoom now matches platform convention: Cmd+scroll on macOS, Ctrl+scroll on Windows and Linux. Trackpad pinch zooms everywhere.
- 🎙️ Push-to-talk no longer collides with the canvas pan key, and is unbound by default.
- 🐞 Fix right-click menu on the workspace explorer sidebar.
- 🎛️ Keyboard shortcuts now show platform-correct keys (⌥ / ⌘ / ⌃ on macOS instead of Alt / Meta / Ctrl).
Improvements
- ⚡ Updated the underlying Electron runtime (43.3) for the latest stability and security fixes.
v2.7.15
Features
- ⚙️ Choose Auto permission mode directly in agent settings for a faster, lower-friction workflow.
- ✏️ Rename panes from master agents so your canvas stays clear and organized as projects evolve. Try "rename my worker panes" as a prompt to your master pane.
Fixes
- 🧩 Apply Patch tool calls now render as readable diffs instead of raw JSON.
- 🔐 A stuck Google sign-in can now be cancelled and retried instead of remaining on “Waiting for browser…”.
- 🟢 Grok's usage status no longer flickers to signed out during transient authentication checks.
- 📊 Onboarding: Claude Code and Codex usage now shows up on a new machine right after install.
- 🛠️ Onboarding: OpenCode installation failures are surfaced clearly instead of failing silently.
Improvements
- 📁 Worker panes show their working-directory badge, with the full path available on hover.
- 🚀 Installed harnesses are detected once and cached for the session, so the right-click menu opens faster.
- 📋 Onboarding: installation commands for Antigravity, Kimi, and Grok are built in, with clearer setup copy.
v2.7.14
Improvements
- 🔍 Zooming out no longer grinds the canvas to a halt. A workspace with dozens of live panes on screen stays smooth instead of dropping to a slideshow.
- ⚡ Switching between busy tabs is about four times faster, and uses less memory than before rather than more. Recently used tabs stay warm and quietly retire once you have not touched them in a while.
- 🪶 Long agent transcripts are far lighter. The heaviest worker panes now render a small fraction of what they used to, which cuts idle CPU sharply when several agents are working at once. Scrolling stays smooth and search still finds older messages.
- 📜 A pane you have scrolled back through keeps its reading position when you click elsewhere, instead of snapping to the newest message.
Fixes
- 🔄 Workers no longer get stuck showing "running" after they have finished. A failed turn could previously leave a pane wedged until you aborted it by hand.
- 🧹 Closing a worker pane now shuts down its CLI process instead of leaving it running in the background.
- 🚪 Quitting no longer hangs when an agent refuses to stop. Shutdown is time-bounded, and a second quit forces it.
- 🔐 Signing in no longer hangs if the background listener closes before the auth flow finishes.
v2.7.13
Fixes
- 🔑 Sign-in more resilient when token expires and needs to be refreshed
v2.7.12
Fixes
- 🍎 App bundle workspaces now open correctly on macOS instead of being blocked at startup.
- 🔤 Startup commands now launch reliably in UTF-8 locale environments across all platforms.
- 🪟 Your configured startup command now actually executes when you open Agent Grid on Windows.
v2.7.11

- 💡 [Theme] Improve light-mode menu colors
v2.7.10
Features
- 📞 A call button now appears on every provider and worker pane so you can dispatch without hunting for it.
- 📂 The canvas remembers which sections you folded per space, and right-click now gives you Fold all / Expand all shortcuts.
- ⌨️ Press ⌘⌥← / ⌘⌥→ to jump between tabs without leaving the keyboard.
Fixes
- 🐛 The context menu stays anchored to where you right-clicked, always shows edit options, and no longer dismisses when you scroll.
- 🐛 The × close button on a pane now reliably wins over the resize handle so you can close panes at the edge without fighting the cursor.
- 🐛 Codex rate-limit windows are now calculated correctly and show you exactly when your next reset is available.
Improvements
- ⚡ Panes that are off-screen are no longer rendered, and surface updates are batched with the animation frame — the canvas stays smooth with lots of panes open.
v2.7.9
Features
- 🔑 You can now reset your password directly from the desktop app without opening a browser.
Fixes
- 🐛 Pasting or copying text with emoji, accents, or other non-ASCII characters no longer comes out garbled.
- 🐛 Right-clicking inside a text field or webview now shows the native edit menu (Cut, Copy, Paste) as expected.

v2.7.8
Features
- ⚡ Onboarding: The preflight overlay now includes a one-click button to install a supported CLI without leaving the setup flow.
- 🔧 The Add Pane menu shows whether a supported CLI is installed and lets you install it inline if it isn't.
- 📐 Your canvas position and zoom level are now saved and restored each time you open the app.
- ✅ Onboarding: The preflight check now verifies that at least one supported CLI provider is installed and enabled before you start.
- 🪟 Closing the main window on macOS now hides it instead of quitting, so your session stays alive in the background.
- 📊 Claude usage now shows a weekly limit bar for Fable so you can see how much of your allowance you've used.

- 🐛 Your subscription page now shows the cancellation date when your plan is set to cancel at period end.
- 🐛 The "nearly reached" usage warning no longer overflows outside its popover.
Improvements
- ⚡ Spaces you aren't actively viewing now use less memory, keeping the app snappy.
v2.7.7
Features

- 🖱️ Resize handles on the canvas now hit-test correctly at any zoom level, so grabbing a pane edge works whether you're zoomed in or out.
- ⏱️ Agent Grid now tracks how long you actively use the app each day, including time right up to when you close it.
Fixes
- 🐛 Drag gestures on the canvas no longer break when a terminal or webview pane temporarily steals pointer focus.
- 🐛 The back, forward, and refresh buttons in browser panes now respond to clicks reliably on macOS.
- 🐛 CLI agents, folder labels, media, and pane interactions now behave more reliably.
v2.7.6
Features

v2.7.2
Features

v2.6.1
Features
- ✨ A live activity indicator now shows when a foreground process is running in a terminal pane, and new sidebar filter chips let you quickly surface only the panes you care about.

- 🧬 **Duplicate** now works on any pane, not just the master — fork a terminal or agent in one click.
v2.5.13
Features
- ♻️ Agent panes that exit unexpectedly now recover on their own — if a Claude or Codex process crashes, gets OOM-killed, or quits, Agent Grid resumes the session in place instead of leaving a dead pane on the canvas.
v2.5.12
Improvements
- 🧰 Maintenance release to keep macOS, Windows, and Linux on a matching version — no app-facing changes in this build.
v2.5.11
Features
- 🪟 🐧 Agent Grid is now available on **Windows and Linux**, alongside macOS.
Fixes
- 🐛 Auto-update on macOS now completes the install and relaunches into the new version after "Install and restart" — earlier builds stopped the crash but could leave the update staged without applying it.
v2.5.10
Improvements
- ⚡ Maintenance release — same macOS auto-update fix as 2.5.9, with behind-the-scenes release-pipeline reliability improvements.
v2.5.9
Fixes
- 🐛 Fixed the macOS auto-update crash where clicking "Install and restart" quit unexpectedly and relaunched the old version instead of updating. Updates now apply cleanly, even with agents and terminals running.
v2.5.8
Improvements
- ⚡ Added anonymous, opt-out usage and crash analytics so we can spot problems and prioritize fixes faster. You can turn it off anytime in Settings.
v2.5.7
Fixes
- 🐛 Fixed a crash on launch that could stop Agent Grid from opening after updating. The app now starts reliably even when analytics aren't configured.
v2.5.6
Fixes
- 🐛 Auto-update no longer crashes on relaunch. macOS was carrying the original download's quarantine flag onto every updated bundle, which blocked a helper process the terminal panes depend on. Agent Grid now clears that flag before anything else runs at startup.
v2.5.5
Fixes
- 🐛 Auto-update no longer crashes on relaunch for users whose original install came from a browser download.
v2.5.4
Features
- 🖼️ Drag images and videos straight from Finder onto the canvas — they become first-class panes.

- 🤖 Claude and Codex master panes auto-rename themselves from your first prompt, so the canvas reads like a table of contents.
- 💾 Settings now save as you change them — the Save button is gone.
- ⌨️ Cmd+K clears the visible viewport in terminal panes.
Improvements

- 🌐 The download page reflects the latest desktop version automatically — no more stale links between releases.
v2.5.3
Features
- 🔄 In-app auto-updates — Agent Grid now downloads new versions in the background and shows an "Update ready" banner when one's staged. Pick "Restart when finished" and the update waits for your Claude sessions to complete before installing.
- ⚙️ New "Updates" panel in Settings — check for updates manually and see the current install status.
- 📁 "New Folder" button in the project picker — create a project directory without leaving the dialog.
Fixes
- 🐛 The renderer now auto-reloads after a crash instead of leaving you with a black screen.
v2.5.2
Features
- ⌨️ Keyboard Shortcuts settings — discover every shortcut and rebind them to taste.
- 🍴 Duplicate any Claude or Codex pane — forks the session so you can branch a conversation.
Fixes
- 🐛 Large workspaces no longer crash on open. Transcripts now load lazily and stay memory-bounded, so a canvas with hundreds of panes opens fast and stays stable.
- 🐛 Workers in paths containing a "." now restore their full transcript instead of showing just the initial prompt.
- 🐛 Pane content stays scrollable when a single pane is selected.
- 🐛 Mobile: viewport position persists, title-pane cleanup, clearer project subtext, and button-visibility fixes.
v2.2.9
Features
- ✨ Voice picker — pick the voice that calls you back during a voice call.
- ⌨️ Toggle the sidebar from anywhere with Cmd+/ (Ctrl+/ on Windows and Linux).
- 🚀 Automated release pipeline — new builds now ship faster and more consistently.

- 🤖 Claude panes auto-enable /remote-control on startup with their own independent settings.
Improvements
- ⚡ Pan and zoom the canvas feels snappier on workspaces with lots of panes.
- ✨ Settings button moved up to the top tab bar where it's easier to find.
v2.2.1
Features
- 🎙️ Voice mode — talk to your panes and get spoken replies, with a wrap-up staged straight into the PTY.
- 🌍 Default voice language preference, plus the full Realtime API language list.
- 🎚️ Voice-speed preference exposed in settings.
Fixes
- 🐛 Voice no longer drifts into other languages mid-conversation.
- 🐛 Startup panes spawn above the existing cluster instead of jumping to (0,0).
- 🎨 Themed dropdown replaces the native language picker on macOS.
