¶Changelog

¶[Unreleased]

¶[0.9.11] - 2026-06-26

¶Changed

• Internal: removed all any types from the embeddable @elyracode/web-ui package (143 eliminated), adding precise discriminated-union types for the sandbox messaging protocol — no behavior change
• Model registry data refresh

¶[0.9.10] - 2026-06-19

¶Added

• Stack detection now recognizes the SILT stack (Svelte 5 + Inertia + Laravel + Tailwind) and suggests @elyracode/stack-silt

¶[0.9.9] - 2026-06-11

¶Added

• Budget-aware smart routing: when a budgeted /goal is active, the router caps tiers as the budget depletes (balanced above 75% spent, fast above 90%) so the loop spends expensive turns early and rations later
• /route: show what smart routing would do for the next turn — classified tier with reason, the model each tier would pick (pins marked), budget capping status, and image-modality constraints
• /cost now shows a burn rate ($X.XX/hour at the current pace) once a session has more than a minute of activity
• elyra doctor models: live-verify configured providers against the model registry from the CLI (credentials from auth.json or env), with --provider, --model, and --max filters; exits non-zero on failures or mismatches for CI use
• smartRoutingModels setting: pin an explicit model per smart-routing tier ({"fast": "anthropic/claude-haiku-4-5", ...}) — the heuristic decides the tier, you decide the model; pins still respect the image-modality filter
• Smart routing decisions are now visible in the chat as a dim status line ("smart routing: fast — read-only tools → Haiku") instead of switching models silently

¶Fixed

• Smart routing no longer escalates permanently to the powerful tier after a few turns: conversation length is now measured in user turns instead of raw messages (tool results inflated the count immediately)
• Smart routing now filters candidates by input modality, so conversations containing images can never be routed to a text-only model
• Smart routing model selection within a tier now prefers same-provider, reasoning-capable, paid models by cost instead of blindly picking the largest context window (which could select a slow 1M-context flagship as the "fast" model)
• Smart routing hysteresis now tracks the classified tier on every turn, including turns where the model did not change

¶[0.9.8] - 2026-06-10

¶Added

• /goal <cmd> --budget <usd>: cost-capped autonomy — the goal loop stops and reports once the spending cap is reached, keeping the work done so far
• /replay <model>: replay the last turn on a new branch with a different model; the original branch is kept for comparison via /tree, and the replay cost is reported
• /learn [topic]: extract a reusable skill from the current session — writes a draft SKILL.md to the user skills directory for review and /reload

¶Changed

• elyra update now checks the npm registry first and reports "Elyra is up to date (version)" instead of reinstalling and claiming success when already on the latest version; use --force to reinstall anyway

¶[0.9.7] - 2026-06-10

¶[0.9.6] - 2026-06-09

¶[0.9.5] - 2026-06-07

¶Added

• MiniMax M3 on the direct minimax and minimax-cn providers (512k context, 128k max output, reasoning, text + image)

¶Changed

• Upgraded the Anthropic SDK from 0.97.1 to 0.102.0

¶[0.9.4] - 2026-06-06

¶Changed

• Replaced the third-party native clipboard dependency with an in-repo fork, @elyracode/clipboard, so the project controls its development and maintenance. The runtime behavior (optional native module with graceful fallback) is unchanged.

¶[0.9.3] - 2026-06-06

¶Added

• Self-writing extensions: the agent can give itself a tool it doesn't have via the new extension_write tool, which scaffolds a TypeScript extension when a needed capability is missing. Approval-by-default with an "Auto-save extensions" setting in /settings.
• /review: get an independent, second-opinion code review of your changes from the model with a clean reviewer prompt and no conversation context. Flags: --session (the agent's changes this session), or a path.
• /bisect: binary-search the session's checkpoints to find which agent turn introduced a problem, like git bisect but over the agent's own turns. /bisect <command> runs automatically (exit 0 = good); without a command it asks you to mark each step. The working tree is always restored afterward.

¶[0.9.2] - 2026-06-06

¶Added

• /update now updates installed extensions too, not just Elyra itself. It checks for both an Elyra version update and out-of-date extensions, updates everything, and restarts once.

¶Fixed

• A user's prompt is now flushed to disk when the agent starts a turn, so it survives a crash during a long initial LLM call (previously entries were deferred until the first assistant message arrived)

¶[0.9.1] - 2026-06-01

¶Added

• Scrollable in-TUI diff viewer: /diff now opens a full-height, syntax-highlighted viewer (scroll with arrows/PgUp/PgDn, g/G for top/bottom) instead of dumping a markdown block into the chat
• /diff --editor (-e) and a "Diff in editor" setting: open the diff in $VISUAL/$EDITOR. Press e inside the viewer to open the same diff in your editor.
• /diff --session: show only what the agent changed this session (diffed against the session's first checkpoint)
• /diff --cached: show staged changes
• /diff <path>: filter the diff to a file or directory
• Plain /diff now also lists untracked files

¶Fixed

• Replaced an inline import in the diff command with a top-level import; raised the diff buffer limit to 32MB

¶[0.9.0] - 2026-05-31

¶Added

• Self-writing skills: the agent can now save a hard-won solution as a reusable skill via the new skill_write tool, so future sessions never re-solve the same problem. Skills are saved to user (~/.elyra/agent/skills) or project (.elyra/skills) scope.
• "Auto-save skills" setting in /settings (default off). When off, the agent shows a Save/Discard prompt before saving each skill. When on, it saves autonomously.

¶[0.8.2] - 2026-05-28

¶Changed

• Default Anthropic model updated from Claude Opus 4.7 to Claude Opus 4.8

¶[0.8.0] - 2026-05-27

¶Fixed

• Synchronous busy-wait spin locks in auth-storage and settings-manager replaced with Atomics.wait — no longer burns CPU at 100% during lock contention
• Edit tool tsc check converted from blocking spawnSync (up to 15s) to async execFile — streaming, UI, and concurrent tools no longer freeze during type checking
• exec.ts now preserves error messages from failed process spawns instead of discarding them
• Checkpoint persistence uses atomic write (temp file + rename) to prevent corruption on crash
• Memory generation errors are now logged instead of silently swallowed
• Agent retry continue() errors are now logged instead of silently swallowed
• Unbounded errors arrays in auth-storage and settings-manager capped at 100 entries

¶[0.7.15] - 2026-05-25

¶Added

• @elyracode/btw extension: parallel side conversations with /btw, /btw:inject, /btw:summarize, /btw:clear, and /btw:thread commands

¶[0.7.14] - 2026-05-25

¶Fixed

¶[0.7.13] - 2026-05-25

¶Changed

• Startup animation replaced with constellation design matching the favicon.svg — orange gradient with highlighted nodes
• @elyracode/laravel skill updated with db-tools integration guidance for combined model-vs-schema analysis
• @elyracode/laravel tools now register only in Laravel projects (no tool clutter in non-Laravel workspaces)

¶[0.7.12] - 2026-05-24

¶Added

• @elyracode/laravel extension: deep Laravel project understanding with laravel_models, laravel_routes, and laravel_analyze tools

¶[0.7.11] - 2026-05-24

¶Added

• /goal <command> command: set a completion condition and the agent keeps working until the command exits with code 0. Type /goal again to clear.
• /update command: update Elyra to the latest version and restart without leaving the session
• In-app update notification shows /update instead of requiring manual terminal commands

¶[0.7.10] - 2026-05-24

¶Changed

• edit tool now runs TypeScript diagnostics after each successful edit and reports new errors to the agent immediately
• read tool returns a structural outline (function/class/interface signatures with line numbers) for files over 150 lines instead of truncated content
• read tool annotates each line with a short content hash (#xxxx | ) for precise edit targeting
• edit tool transparently strips hash annotations from oldText/newText so copy-paste from annotated reads works directly

¶[0.7.9] - 2026-05-23

¶Added

• @elyracode/workflows extension: code-orchestrated workflow pipelines defined in .elyra/workflows/. Supports prompt, run, if, and parallel step types with template interpolation between steps. Code handles control flow, the LLM handles judgment — no token tax from LLM-based orchestration.
• /workflow command to list and execute workflows
• elyra-workflows skill teaching the agent about workflow patterns
