v2.6

agent0ai/agent-zerov2.6Jul 23, 2026by github-actions[bot]

AI Summary

This release consolidates the goal tool into a single multi-action module, enhances secret redaction logic, and improves process exit handling and resource cleanup. It also includes stability fixes for the WebUI, Chrome extensions, and Docker browser rendering.

Key Highlights

  • Consolidated goal tool replaces separate modules (create, get, update, storage) while preserving API and slash command behavior.
  • Smarter secret redaction now only masks API keys and credentials, preventing ordinary settings from corrupting chat text.
  • Enhanced process exit handling treats terminated shells (local, SSH, TTY) as completion with new `is_terminated` and `get_exit_code` helpers.
  • Fixed memory leaks related to Paramiko and implemented deferred task resource cleanup to prevent retained references.
  • Stabilized WebUI navigation, Chrome extension installs, and Docker browser rendering with better timeout and frame handling.

New Features

  • New `is_terminated` and `get_exit_code` helpers available across session types.
  • Inline confirmation UI for extension deletion replacing native dialogs.
  • Connector history improvements offering bounded tail snapshots and cursor-based older pages.
  • Resumable and secret-safe chat compaction preserving authorization and pending work.

Full Release Notes

## Agent Zero Release Notes

- **Consolidated goal tool** — Replaced the separate create, get, update, and storage modules with a single multi-action goal tool while preserving the slash command, API, goal strip, and active-goal response behavior.

- **Resumable, secret-safe chat compaction** — Compaction now preserves authorization, evidence, pending work, loaded skills, and secret references in a fixed resumable-state summary. The stale context-window cache is cleared after compaction.

- **Smarter runtime secret redaction** — Masking of `usr/.env` values is now limited to API keys and login/password credentials, preventing ordinary settings from corrupting chat text. Global and project secrets remain fully protected.

- **Shell and SSH process exits handled as completion** — Terminated local, SSH, and TTY shells are now detected and treated as definitive command completion. New `is_terminated` and `get_exit_code` helpers are available across session types. Terminated sessions are recreated lazily before the next command.

- **Deferred task resource cleanup** — Callables and arguments are now released after task completion or cancellation, preventing retained references. Child tasks are cleaned up and best-effort destructors added for local and SSH sessions.

- **Paramiko import traceback leak fixed** — Cleared a stale traceback retained by Paramiko's optional-import cache that was keeping the code-execution tool-loading stack and first agent in memory.

- **Chrome Web Store extension installs fixed** — Redundant same-version reinstalls are skipped, updates are staged before replacing files, and active browser runtimes are restarted safely.

- **Stabilized internal Docker browser rendering** — WebUI navigation now returns after the initial document commit, socket timeouts align with browser command deadlines, and cropped or mismatched screencast frames are rejected to prevent viewport stretching.

- **Inline confirmation for extension deletion** — The native confirm dialog is replaced with the shared inline confirmation UI, with proper escaping of extension names.

- **Page-tail history snapshots for connectors** — Interactive clients can now receive a bounded tail snapshot and cursor-based older pages. Clients that do not request history hints still receive complete replay.

- **Hardened malformed response and tool handling** — Missing or malformed response arguments now raise a repairable exception instead of exposing a `KeyError`. Fenced or structurally broken tool intent is routed through the existing misformat repair path so streamed chats no longer stall in a thinking state.

- **Stabilized WebUI mount geometry** — Added responsive shell styling with a 250 px desktop sidebar that yields to the mounted left panel and collapses on mobile. The welcome composer now reserves its final height during hydration.

- **Launcher download links updated to v1.4** — README and platform installer links now point to the published v1.4 Launcher artifacts.
