When compression hides an explicitly loaded skill body, reattach the current missing revision as a normal skills_tool history result under one fixed budget. Preserve skill name and revision metadata in automatic and manual compaction summaries without copying full skill bodies.
Move explicit skill loads out of per-turn prompt extras and into normal tool-result history, with revision metadata for duplicate detection. Duplicate load calls now omit the full body only when the same revision remains model-visible after history output assembly.
Reject document_query during parallel tool-call normalization before worker jobs are started. Add prompt guidance so the model avoids batching document_query, and update DOX plus regressions for the new sequential-only contract.
Add trigger frontmatter for browser automation and browser form workflow skills so relevant-skill recall surfaces them for rendered browsing, screenshots, host-browser, and form-heavy tasks. Update build-skill guidance to document trigger metadata and add regression coverage for parsing and ranking the browser skills.
Prefer explicit tool_name examples and first prompt headings when deriving native Responses function tool names, falling back to the prompt filename only when no callable name is declared.
Add regression coverage for code_execution_tool, memory_load, call_subordinate, behaviour_adjustment, and filename-only fallback, and document the contract in responses_tools DOX.
Add oMLX as a first-class local chat and embedding provider using the Docker-friendly host.docker.internal:8000/v1 default and LiteLLM hosted_vllm wiring. Mark it as a no-key local provider, include it in onboarding with a bundled logo, document Apple Silicon setup including paged SSD cache, and cover the provider defaults, model search behavior, and onboarding metadata with focused tests.
Add shipped local-provider defaults for LM Studio and Ollama so Dockerized Agent Zero can reach host-running services without manual api_base edits. Map host.docker.internal in the sample Compose file for Linux Docker, document the behavior, and cover the provider defaults and compose mapping with focused regression tests.
Keep the browser tool prompt as a compact callable contract and move detailed workflows into browser-automation, with fragile form guidance chained through browser-form-workflows. Add regression coverage for the skills_tool loading path, host browser setup hint, and prompt token ceiling.
Keep running parallel jobs alive when an await call reaches its timeout so agents can await the same job ids again instead of cancelling child work. Distinguish direct background tool workers from call_subordinate child chats so nested subordinate chats can use parallel normally while true worker recursion remains blocked. Update the parallel prompt, DOX notes, and regressions for non-destructive timeout and non-blocking collect semantics.
The code execution tool runs commands inside TTY-backed shells (local PTY and
remote SSH). Commands like `git diff`/`git log` detect the TTY and pipe output
through a pager (more/less). These shells never receive interactive input, so
the pager blocks forever and spins at 100% CPU per process — on a 16-core host
5 pager processes pegged 5 cores for 8+ hours (#1697).
Disable pagers in both session types:
- LocalInteractiveSession: inject PAGER=cat / GIT_PAGER=cat into the TTY env
- SSHInteractiveSession: export the same in the initial shell command
`cat` streams the output through instead of blocking, and also covers other
pager-using tools (man, systemctl, journalctl). Adds regression tests.
Fixes#1697
Hide A0 connector remote tool prompts unless a connected CLI advertises the matching capability. Remote file access enables text_editor_remote, F4-enabled remote execution enables code_execution_remote, and supported enabled Computer Use that is not in rearm-required state enables computer_use_remote.
Apply the same gate to Responses API function-tool generation, move the prompt hook to the active tool-prompt extension path, and update connector prompt wording, DOX, and regression coverage.
Verified with:
- conda run -n a0 pytest tests/test_a0_connector_prompt_gating.py tests/test_default_prompt_budget.py tests/test_responses_architecture.py -q
- document that parallel accepts full reply-shaped tool call objects and ignores planning-only fields
- steer prompt guidance toward one mixed batch for ready independent calls instead of splitting by tool type
- add normalization and prompt regression coverage plus matching DOX notes
- add a parallel wrapper and runtime for concurrent background tool calls
- run parallel call_subordinate jobs as child chats with visible subagent steps that match normal subordinate args
- render parallel child tool steps with normal tool-call args while keeping job handles in wrapper results and prompt extras
- group parallel child chats in the sidebar with persistent accordion and caret behavior
- add prompt, extension, DOX, and regression coverage
Limit LiteLLM module mutation to documented global switches such as drop_params, while preserving configured LiteLLM kwargs as per-call options. Avoid freezing global kwargs into provider defaults so runtime settings remain current, and extend focused tests for drop_params, additional_drop_params, and provider default behavior.
Wrap FastA2A agent card generation so Agent Zero advertises streaming support on A2A endpoints by default.
Add focused regression coverage for the agent-card capability rewrite and proxy wiring, and update the helper DOX profile for the new wrapper.
Treat model-slot kwargs as provider-specific preset fields: applying a preset now replaces explicit kwargs and clears inherited kwargs when the preset omits them, while preserving durable tuning like context windows and rate limits.
Mirror the behavior in the WebUI preset merge helper and add regressions for Codex-like presets so unsupported parameters such as temperature cannot leak into Responses API providers.
Teach the Responses fallback classifier to inspect status codes, wrapped exception types, and response bodies so LiteLLM NotFoundError wrappers that hide the /v1/responses URL still fall back to chat completions.
Keep rate-limit errors non-fallback and add a regression test for the OpenAIException detail-only 404 shape observed with providers that do not expose the Responses API.
Route Agent Zero turns through a LiteLLM transport layer that prefers the Responses API while preserving chat-completions fallback for providers without compatible endpoints.
Persist Responses metadata in history and agent state so provider-state continuation, local replay, native function-call execution, and stored-response cleanup survive normal chat workflows.
Normalize prompt caching by provider: OpenAI and Azure use prompt_cache_key and prompt_cache_retention, while Anthropic, Gemini, Bedrock, OpenRouter, and compatible chat providers keep block-level cache_control breakpoints and cached tool definitions.
Revamp the global and project MCP manager surfaces with list-first layout, clearer examples, a dedicated scanner modal, manager/raw toolbar parity, and local-command-first server creation.\n\nAdd server and tool search, plugin-style enable toggles, per-tool disabled_tools handling in the MCP backend, internal A0 MCP tool search, regression coverage, and updated DOX contracts.
Add project-scoped MCP server configuration with global/project merge semantics, a richer settings UI, and chat composer access. Introduce MCP config scanning plus project-aware status/detail/log/apply APIs while preserving the raw JSON editor. Strengthen MCP runtime handling for dotted tool names, timeouts, status accuracy, and project-aware tool execution, with focused regression coverage.
Add selectable workspace support to the Time Travel plugin and introduce normalized global LiteLLM configuration handling.
models.py: add DEFAULT_LITELLM_GLOBAL_KWARGS and helpers to normalize, load, apply, and merge LiteLLM global kwargs; call configure_litellm/set per-call merges in LiteLLM wrappers so framework defaults, configured globals, and per-call overrides combine correctly. Add tests to assert merging and runtime application.
plugins/_time_travel: update docs and plugin metadata to describe workdir/project selection. API handlers now accept workspace_id and a new history_workspaces endpoint lists selectable workspaces. helpers/time_travel: implement workspace listing, selection, and resolution logic (workdir/project options, availability/locking, default selection). UI: add workspace picker to time-travel panel, wire selection/load into time-travel store, pass workspace_id to API calls, and add click hook to open the panel. Update styles and refresh/load behavior accordingly.
Tests: extend tests for LiteLLM global kwargs merging and adapt stream test to expect merged params; add tests for selectable workspaces, default selection, and locked external workdir handling.
Add a core startup migration that refreshes /exe/self_update_manager.py from the repository copy when the installed runtime updater is missing the socket-safe backup and Desktop cleanup markers.
Validate the source updater before replacing anything, preserve the previous runtime script as a backup, and leave current or non-regular targets untouched. Add regression coverage for stale runtime replacement, safe no-op/refusal paths, and the real repository updater source.
Add comprehensive file-level DOX documentation across the repo and update directory AGENTS.md indexes. Many new `*.py.dox.md` files were added under api, helpers, tools, plugins, extensions, webui, and other dirs to document endpoint purpose, ownership, runtime contracts, work guidance, and verification. Several AGENTS.md files were created or updated (agents profiles, api, docker, extensions, helpers, plugins, skills, webui components, etc.) to list child DOX files and clarify documentation/work guidance. Also add example and bundled profile DOX files (agent0, default, developer, hacker, researcher) and minor updates to helpers/dirty_json.py and its tests. These changes improve on-disk documentation coverage and establish the convention that each direct runtime file should have a matching `*.dox.md` describing its contracts and verification steps.
Add direct directory navigation to the file browser path bar and preserve the current listing when typed paths fail.
Add a default-enabled setting to remember the last successful file browser directory, while keeping explicit open paths deterministic.
Move the Editor preview/source toggle into the left-side toolbar cluster so mode switching sits with editing controls. Add a dedicated right-side Save button and remove Save from the overflow menu, leaving the menu for rename and close actions. Cover the toolbar placement with a static regression test.
Open the Editor file browser from the active project context before falling back to the configured workdir. Keep manual Editor launches on the empty start page instead of auto-creating blank Markdown files, while preserving explicit Markdown creation from the empty state. Add static regression coverage for both behaviors.
Normalize active Remote Control URLs to same-origin values before adding them to CSRF allowlists, so Tailscale Funnel URLs with paths or trailing slashes can bootstrap tokens correctly.
Allow WebSocket origin validation to trust only the currently active Remote Control origin, including Docker split-process tunnel service URLs, while preserving rejection for unrelated external origins.
Add focused regression coverage for active Tailscale-style origins, tunnel-service origin lookup, and negative cross-origin cases; keep run_ui decorator re-exports compatible with existing CSRF tests.
Update the OAuth settings poller to wait for the provider interval, carry slow_down interval updates forward, and respect provider expiration times so GitHub Copilot device-code auth can complete after browser authorization.
Dispatch the legacy device-login endpoint by provider_id and add regressions plus DOX guidance for provider-aware device polling.
Move device-code, manual callback, and setup controls into the provider row that started the OAuth flow so pending state stays anchored to its provider.
Add static coverage and plugin DOX guidance for inline provider detail rendering.
Remove the static OAuth API-key placeholder from provider defaults and gate the runtime dummy key on provider connection status.
This keeps unconnected OAuth providers blank in API-key surfaces while preserving the local proxy shim for connected account-backed providers. Update OAuth docs and regressions for the new contract.
Add connected-account provider dropdowns for Main and Utility model slots in OAuth settings. Keep model search and selection scoped to each slot's chosen provider so multiple connected OAuth accounts can be used independently.
Return users to their original requested page after login, with robust same-origin validation to prevent open redirects.

Reuse the DocumentQueryStore per chat context so repeated document_query calls can see an existing vector DB instead of re-parsing and re-embedding the same document every time.
Add a regression test that proves a second store lookup in the same context reuses the indexed document while a separate context stays isolated.
Disable LiteParse OCR automatically for PDFs at or above the configured page threshold, independent of sampled text density. Add adaptive index chunk sizing for large extracted documents so first-run document_query calls avoid spending the full batch timeout embedding thousands of small chunks. Update the settings UI, README, dependency hook, and regression tests for the new behavior.
Load OAuth account providers from the status API on the path, cloud, and setup steps instead of relying on a Codex-only strip. Support provider-specific setup fields, device-code and browser callback flows, model loading by provider, the local DeepSeek icon, and the polished account heading copy.
Add a shared provider-registry-backed OAuth status summary for the status API and discovery cards. Redesign the OAuth settings modal around provider rows, inline usage, provider details, and account-backed model slots while keeping legacy Codex compatibility fields intact.
Add support for including a top-level AGENTS.md in a project's system instructions while keeping backwards-compatible defaults. Introduces include_agents_md project metadata (defaults to true), normalization and save logic, and helper functions to discover and format AGENTS.md and other instruction files into the system prompt. Updates build_system_prompt_vars to assemble instruction parts, adds UI checkbox in project edit form, normalizes defaults in the projects store, and adds tests for the new behavior. Also documents the compatibility rule in AGENTS.md and adds a small prompt rule reminder.
Filter passive fragment memories before consolidation so action history, temporary artifacts, local runtime coordinates, and personal absolute paths do not get saved automatically.
Tighten memory utility prompts toward durable preferences, stable project facts, recurring constraints, and reusable solutions while keeping explicit memory_save behavior unchanged. Add focused tests for fragment quality gating.
Keep model config markup focused on setup and let the store own settings-object lifecycle hooks. This initializes UI-only kwargs fields after scope loads while preserving dirty tracking for reset/default changes.
Extend the self-update preflight cleanup to cover current Desktop profile state, retired Desktop state, and legacy Office-owned Desktop profile state.
Remove transient .ssh/agent entries and non-regular .gnupg/S.gpg-agent* sockets before usr backup while preserving GnuPG key material such as pubring.kbx and private-keys-v1.d. Add regression coverage for the v1.13 legacy profile layout that can block upgrades.
