Replace the legacy long-goal skill contract with command-scoped goal tools and runtime guidance. Keep goal state durable across continuations while restricting create and replace mutations to explicit user /goal turns.
Maintainer edit: keep the Mattermost adapter running under the gateway, fail closed when team filtering cannot verify the team, isolate new thread sessions immediately, and make buffered stream finalization retry-safe.
Maintainer edit: preserve raw cmd.exe quoting for shell='cmd', propagate native exit codes through the default PowerShell path, and keep quoted Windows executable paths invokable under PowerShell.
maintainer edit: remove the _last_compacted_at maintenance state, gate idle compaction on whether a session still has a removable tail, and sort WebUI sessions by the latest visible transcript activity.
Extract model-facing context governance from AgentRunner.
Only compact in-flight tool results when the model request is over budget, keep compacted IDs stable within a turn, and allow the newest result to be compacted as a last resort when it is the remaining source of overflow.
Maintainer edit: document OpenCode Zen and Go configuration, keep their registry entries with gateway providers, and add focused provider registration tests.
maintainer edit: move duplicate tool_use history repair out of AgentRunner and into Anthropic message conversion, reusing the OpenAI-compatible queue-mapping approach locally without broadening the shared runner path.
maintainer edit: remap duplicate tool_use/tool_call ids instead of dropping later calls, so Anthropic-compatible providers that reuse ids for distinct parallel tool calls keep all requested work while still sending unique ids.
Replace the manual thread-based catalog refresh with an asyncio task and async HTTP catalog fetches so the Settings route stays within the async WebUI model.
maintainer edit: CLI Apps settings now treats optional catalog caches as refresh candidates without blocking the initial payload, and pending polling stops when refresh is throttled instead of running indefinitely.
Add Quick Start endpoint choices for subscription plan providers, require explicit WebSocket confirmation, and require a WebUI password when enabling the WebSocket channel. Update docs to route Quick Start users through the WebUI instead of agent -m.
Drive Quick Start provider choices from the provider registry instead of a short allowlist. Clean up parenthetical wizard labels and keep the beginner docs in sync.
Remove automatic Quick Start model discovery. Users now explicitly enter the model ID after choosing the provider and API key, and incomplete Quick Start input does not leave partial provider config behind.
Cleanup-only simplification: remove a one-entry dispatch table, avoid unused provider tuple unpacking, and strip the selected model once before storing it.
Remove the PR changes that made nanobot onboard default to the wizard, added --defaults, added non-TTY fallback behavior, and changed the Docker smoke command. Keep Quick Start available through nanobot onboard --wizard.
Maintainer edit: replace Quick Start key/base detection with an explicit provider-first flow. Users choose the provider that issued the API key, paste the key, and only custom OpenAI-compatible setups ask for a base URL.
Maintainer edit: restart the Quick Start flow around an API-key-first path without recommending OpenRouter or DeepSeek. Detect unique key prefixes locally, fall back to a user-provided base URL, and only fetch models from that approved URL.
Maintainer edit: restart the Quick Start default around a mainland-friendly provider instead of making OpenRouter the first-run dependency. Update wizard copy, default preset, focused tests, and beginner docs to use DeepSeek with the current deepseek-v4-flash model.
Maintainer edit: continue the wizard simplification pass by making Quick Start save after the API key path, hiding save/summary actions until they are needed, removing failed-key side effects, and aligning beginner docs with the local WebUI path.
Maintainer edit: collapse the first-run wizard to an API-key-only Quick Start and move lower-frequency provider, model, channel, gateway, and tool settings behind Advanced Settings.
Maintainer edit: reduce the default onboarding path to a recommended local WebUI setup that only asks for an OpenRouter key, while keeping the detailed provider/channel flow available for advanced setup.
Maintainer edit: make explicit --defaults refresh existing configs without prompting when no TTY is available, preserving user values for CI and Docker runs.
maintainer edit: make the exact-file allowlist check express the invariant directly: the resolved target must still equal the requested logical path before the logical path can match the allowlist.
maintainer edit: compare exact-file allowlist entries using logical paths and require the resolved target to stay at that canonical path, so symlinks or junctions cannot redirect canonical memory files to an external write target.
Treat the current live user message as the replay boundary for normal user turns, while keeping user-turn extension for history and consolidation paths that need it. Add regression coverage for the user-triggered long tool-turn case.
Maintainer edit: after #4314 moved shared tool config models to nanobot.config_base, keep FileToolsConfig on the new dependency boundary so the PR passes the architecture guard.
Maintainer edit: subagents rebuilt their scoped ToolsConfig without carrying tools.file, which re-enabled built-in file tools after the parent agent disabled them. Preserve the file config and add loader/subagent coverage for the disabled path.
Avoid resubmitting unchanged schedules from the automation edit dialog so completed one-time automations can still have their content updated. Treat unchanged schedules as already-valid on the backend while preserving validation for actual schedule changes.
Maintainer edit: redact external channel chat identifiers from the WebUI automation payload and reject malformed or unschedulable automation updates before they mutate cron jobs.
maintainer edit: rename the idle compact archive inputs so the code distinguishes messages being removed from messages being summarized. This keeps the #4264 behavior unchanged while making the retained-suffix summary rule easier to read.
maintainer edit: reject arbitrary custom provider keys that normalize to built-in provider names so runtime and WebUI settings cannot disagree about whether a provider is dynamic or built in.
