Advertise message queue support from the Agent Zero connector backend and add WebSocket handlers for queue add, remove, and send operations.
Include queue snapshots in context subscriptions and emit queue updates as the backend state changes so the CLI can stay in sync.
Remove obsolete Office markdown editor UI and handoff code now that Markdown lives in the dedicated Editor surface.
Harden the Editor modal so it opens directly into a Markdown draft and rebinds Ace to the visible root when switching surfaces.
Make Browser address Enter navigation explicit and update the canvas setup expectations for the slimmer Office shell.
Expand the dedicated Editor surface with safe rendered preview mode, ACE-backed source editing, browser-style tabs, toolbar/file actions, preview search, and richer Markdown rendering for code blocks, task lists, images, tables, math, local links, and footnotes.
Keep open Markdown files synchronized with the active context and saved tool edits, including live refresh for document_artifact and text_editor results without routing Markdown through Desktop/Office.
Add inline preview-page editing, clickable preview task-list checkboxes, source editor rehydration after preview-mode refreshes, and regression coverage for the new editor wiring and sync behavior.
Add a builtin _editor plugin that owns Markdown API/WebSocket sessions, canvas and modal UI, live refresh, tabs, prompt Extras for active-context open files, inline close confirmation, and Close All handling.
Route Markdown document artifacts to Editor while keeping Office/Desktop focused on LibreOffice formats, and update Desktop/Office prompts, menus, compatibility shims, and regression coverage.
Forward reset=true from code_execution_remote replacement commands to the connected CLI and document when to use it versus runtime=reset. This lets the CLI tear down stuck host sessions before running the next command.
Tests from /home/eclypso/a0/a0-connector: PYTHONPATH=src conda run -n a0 pytest tests/test_plugin_backend.py::test_code_execution_remote_forwards_reset_true_with_replacement_command -v; ./.venv/bin/python -m pytest tests/test_plugin_backend.py -k 'code_execution_remote or select_remote_exec or ws_connector_exec_result' -v. Mirrored to live container 07e0288dc04f and health check returned HTTP 200.
Migrate retired /usr/_office and /usr/_desktop trees from plugin startup into /usr/plugins/<plugin>. Update office document storage, desktop session/runtime paths, and context-scoped screenshots to use the plugin-owned state layout. Add focused tests for retired-state migration and the new path behavior.
Render custom per-chat model overrides in the model switcher instead of hiding them behind a generic Custom label.
Mark model override updates dirty so an already-open Web UI refreshes after CLI or Web UI changes, without exposing API key values in labels.
Add focused regression coverage for switcher rendering hooks and state-sync notifications.
Register Nebius Token Factory as an OpenAI-compatible chat provider using the Token Factory API base URL and NEBIUS_API_KEY-derived provider id.
Expose Nebius in onboarding metadata and add static coverage for the provider endpoint and UI listing.
Route host/local browser requests through the Browser tool instead of desktop or shell fallbacks. Add remote-debugging setup guidance to Browser runtime errors and document the exact Chrome inspect setting in prompts, skills, and Web UI copy.
Teach the Browser content helper to ignore global/delegated framework event bindings so snapshots surface the actual actionable controls instead of broad wrapper elements. Add an accessible name to the Browser address bar for more reliable capture output.
Allow agents to use selector-based reference actions, coordinate click fallbacks, focused-field typing, and string key chords such as CTRL+A across the browser tool, container runtime, and host connector runtime. Cover the behavior with browser regression and host connector tests.
Make file creation opt-in through document_artifact, move document file cards to final responses, and keep the tool payload as a quiet execution record.
Deduplicate response cards by file identity, refresh open Desktop canvas sessions after saved edits, and harden document_artifact edit input normalization for common append/update shapes.
Update prompts, skills, styles, and regression coverage for response-only file actions and explicit-only canvas opening.
Detect stalled automatic history compression so the prompt-prep wait loop cannot spin forever when no further reduction is possible.
Split large manual chat compaction input by verified token budget instead of line midpoint, covering single-line 85k+ character histories.
Add regression tests for stalled compression, max-pass bailout, and large single-line compaction chunking.
Reset the custom API base URL whenever the provider dropdown changes so stale endpoints do not carry across provider tests. Move the chat Supports Vision toggle out of Advanced Settings while keeping dependent vision settings, such as Max embeds, inside Advanced.
Rename high-impact skills to task-oriented names and move plugin-owned skills into their owning plugin folders.\n\nAlign renamed skill frontmatter with the official SKILL.md standard by keeping trigger language in name/description metadata, replacing the old create-skill wizard with build-skill, and updating browser, A0 connector, computer-use, CLI setup, and scheduler skill references.\n\nTighten the recurring cross-provider guidance gaps surfaced by the evidence sweeps: memory requests now avoid promptinclude-file routing, scheduler prompts distinguish cron schedules from planned ISO dates, document questions prefer document_query, skills_tool search/read_file usage is clearer, normal notifications set info/priority 10, and local/host text editors preserve patch intent.\n\nUpdate regression tests for the renamed skills, plugin ownership, prompt budget reality, and standard frontmatter shape.
Allow the Linux Desktop state collector to report a healthy canvas when XFCE has no active application window, as long as the display, visible windows, and screenshots are available.
Document the readiness rule in the linux-desktop skill and add regression coverage for the bare-desktop active_window=null case.
Track computer-use CLI status, last error, and restore-token presence in connector metadata so stale Free Run settings are no longer treated as ready.
Materialize CLI-provided screenshot artifacts through Agent Zero's file helpers, stop dispatching computer_use_remote actions when metadata already reports rearm required, and teach the skill to give backend-agnostic rearm guidance without screenshot or vision fallbacks.
Standardize multi-action tools around tool_args.action while keeping parser compatibility for older tool/args, tool_name:action, and method-shaped requests. This keeps new prompts clean without breaking agents that learned the previous dialect.
Move A0 connector remote execution/file tools into stable standard prompts, make remote targeting independent of the active chat context, and skill-gate beta computer-use remote so it no longer weighs down the always-on tool list.
Align text editor, scheduler, skills, office artifact, memory, notify, and browser prompts/tools around the canonical action contract. Add scheduler update/timezone handling, skills_tool read_file, text editor patch coverage, and fixes for memory_forget, behaviour_adjustment, and code execution progress warnings.
Reduce default prompt pressure by compacting browser and scheduler prompts into skill-backed manifests, shortening skill catalog descriptions, and pruning noisy framework knowledge. Remove obsolete connector prompt stubs and root tool-call knowledge examples.

Tighten the final onboarding discovery cards so the setup suggestions take less vertical space.
Add a compact CLI Connector card with macOS/Linux and Windows install commands plus a small A0 terminal preview asset.
Default Bring Your Own Browser mode to the existing browser profile while exposing a clean Agent profile option in Browser settings with a clear warning for existing-profile access.
Forward the selected profile mode through the connector browser runtime, tolerate legacy config modules and old saved configs, and update regression coverage for the new payload shape.
Stop and remove the old a0_office_collabora supervisor program during Docker self-update preparation, before stale Collabora runtime paths are deleted. Add a narrow repo-side retirement hook so older bootstrap managers can clean the checked-out runtime without reinstalling desktop packages during health checks.
Harden XFCE desktop startup with explicit XDG config/data directories so upgraded Desktop sessions avoid the failsafe-session path after the Collabora-to-LibreOffice transition.
Introduce a guided Cloud versus Local first-run modal with provider selection, account connection, model picking, and a ready state.\n\nAdd the reusable discovery auto-modal trigger, chat-created startup checks, onboarding-owned provider presentation metadata and assets, OAuth affordances, local provider guidance, and model-search hardening.\n\nKeep runtime provider data centralized while preserving onboarding-specific copy, logos, and docs links in the onboarding plugin.

Save a static JPEG for each Browser tool call in the chat history folder and render that immutable image in transcript screenshot previews. Keep live Browser surface attachment available through stored browser/context metadata, and ignore generated Playwright CLI artifacts.
Attach the Browser canvas to active Docker sessions by returning an initial snapshot on subscribe and preserving valid frames through state-only updates. Route Markdown document opens through the right-canvas Desktop editor instead of the legacy office modal. Skip automatic office document response affordances for subordinate agents so delegated reviews keep their actual content.
Replace the combined A0 CLI remote workflow skill with separate text-editor and code-execution remote skills, update tool stubs to load the matching per-tool guide, and keep computer-use remote scoped to desktop control. Add prompt-gating coverage for the per-affordance skill split.
Add a protected connector endpoint for reading and updating the Browser plugin runtime backend so the A0 CLI can switch between Docker browser and Bring Your Own Browser mode. Keep legacy host_when_available values normalized to host_required, move the host/container setting to the top of Browser settings, and cover the config normalization path.
Remove the ambiguous Use host when ready option from the Browser plugin settings and present the host-required path as Bring Your Own Browser. Add concise Chrome/Chromium remote-debugging guidance, normalize legacy host_when_available values to the BYOB setting, and make missing host-browser connector setup a repairable error with regression coverage.
Move URL normalization into Agent Zero-owned Browser helper code and expose the content helper's required API contract from the shared asset. Normalize host-browser open/navigate payloads before they cross into the connector, including nested multi actions, and add regression coverage for helper payload delivery and URL edge cases.
Make the Browser plugin the source of truth for browser-page-content.js by attaching its source and sha256 to host-browser operations when the CLI has no matching helper hash. Store the helper hash in connector metadata and cover the routing/ensure path in tests.
Store and surface host-browser preparation and CDP endpoint metadata from A0 CLI.
Let Browser runtime prepare candidate CLIs before the first action, and keep host-required errors more actionable.
Simplify Host Browser settings language and document the Chrome remote-debugging consent flow.
Integrate host-browser routing into the existing Browser tool. Store connector host-browser metadata, add pending browser op resolution, select connector runtimes from Browser settings, enforce host-content privacy policy, support automatic host preparation, and document the A0 CLI host-browser flow.
Delete the Browser plugin's injected bottom-action button so it no longer appears under the chat input while preserving the rest of the Browser surface entry points.
Update the browser regression coverage to assert the chat action stays absent.
Remove stale runtime directories and expand retired package coverage for startup/self-update cleanup.
Discover installed collaboraoffice* split packages dynamically so future package-name changes are still purged, and extend Office cleanup tests for the legacy /opt paths, known leftover packages, idempotency, and marker rerun behavior.
Use /a0/tmp/playwright as the Browser plugin Chromium cache and Docker install target while preserving full Chromium installs.
Add startup migration cleanup for retired usr Playwright caches, update Browser status/runtime references and docs, and cover migration behavior with focused regressions.
Store remote tool metadata through a dedicated hello path, bind a declared context id to the websocket SID, and return acknowledged remote tool state so clients can verify gated tools such as code_execution_remote are visible to the active chat.
Track active Desktop runtime preparation in the _desktop hook, expose installing status through Desktop session status, and have the Desktop frontend poll with a neutral install message instead of showing missing dependencies while packages are still being installed after an update.
Run Office and Desktop apt operations through a shared in-process retry guard so startup/self-update hooks wait out transient apt locks instead of failing early. Include LibreOffice runtime packages in Desktop preparation because Desktop status and Writer/Calc/Impress launch paths require soffice, and cover both behaviors with regression tests.
Rename Office skills to product-neutral Writer, Calc, Impress, and document-artifact names while removing the visible legacy directories. Tighten connector list/delete behavior to the enabled catalog and prevent deletion of built-in plugin skills; also surface invalid skill YAML instead of silently accepting it.
Keep _office focused on document artifacts, Markdown sessions, LibreOffice-compatible file actions, and document persistence. Route binary document editing through explicit Desktop requests instead of cold-opening the live Desktop surface from artifact results.
Add the built-in _desktop plugin as the owner of Xpra/Xfce lifecycle, /desktop route installation, Desktop state, session APIs, surface registration, and the linux-desktop skill. Leave _office with explicit compatibility facades and self-update delegates so users coming from 1.10 through 1.13 keep their runtime cleanup path.
Introduce the shared surfaces frontend service and stylesheet so Browser and Desktop can register docked or floating live UI without special cases in modals.js. Update Browser and right-canvas integration to preserve active viewers across canvas/modal switches and avoid creating blank tabs unless explicitly requested.
Reload LibreOffice-backed Writer, Spreadsheet, and Presentation documents after artifact edits by closing and reopening the visible document window instead of relying on a canvas repaint.
Cold-start Office canvas sessions from tool results, guard null document headers during initial render, and avoid terminating rehydrated desktop processes from temporary manager instances.
Unify Markdown and LibreOffice document handling around an active-file header in both canvas and modal views. Move creation into a shared + New menu, place Save beside file actions, and expose Rename/Close File from the document dropdown. Update the README with the refreshed Office and Browser screenshots plus the new Office UI behavior.
Remove Time Travel's floating modal behavior so it uses the standard centered modal shell and shared backdrop like Settings. Keep the modal-only sizing classes on the component document and stop exempting Time Travel from backdrop rendering.
Refine the Linux Desktop skill so agents distinguish shell prompts from target CLI prompts before sending natural-language input.
Use a generic nested CLI-agent launch pattern with TARGET_CLI and optional FALLBACK_CMD instead of Codex-specific instructions, and add canvas setup assertions to keep the guidance generic.
Adds the explicit browser:screenshot action that writes JPEG/PNG files for vision_load, extends agent-callable Browser input actions, and documents the explicit vision workflow.
Adds the browser-forms on-demand skill and regression coverage for dispatch, runtime screenshot files, ref point resolution, upload path normalization, prompt discoverability, and label-wrapped form controls surfaced by the chat-driven E2E.
Keep Browser modal activation passive when switching from Desktop by reusing existing Browser sessions instead of creating a blank tab on viewer subscribe.
Add a Focus mode control to the Browser modal header matching Desktop's fullscreen/restore behavior.
Cover the passive subscribe path and Browser modal focus button in regression tests.
Keep one Xpra Desktop iframe alive across canvas, modal, and keepalive hosts instead of unloading it during normal UI handoffs. Add intentional shutdown/restart state so explicit shutdown is treated as closed, not crashed.
Add the desktop_shutdown Office API path, backend system-desktop shutdown cleanup, and an XFCE panel Shutdown Desktop launcher that requires a second click before writing the shutdown request marker. Hide unsafe logout, lock, and switch-user affordances and cover the lifecycle with focused tests.
