Full Release Notes

## What's new

**🎛️ One place for models.** Provider setup and model choice now live in a single redesigned settings experience: connect a provider, browse every available model in a split-view picker, and get per-task recommendations applied automatically. Background tasks (notes, titles, live notes) can run on their own models or simply inherit your assistant's.

**📊 Charts, right in the chat.** Ask for a comparison or a trend and the assistant can now draw inline charts directly in the conversation — no export, no external tool.

**✍️ Chats name themselves.** New conversations get a short, meaningful title from your first message, so your history reads like a table of contents instead of a wall of "New chat".

**🪟 Signed Windows builds.** Windows releases are now code-signed via Azure Trusted Signing — fewer scary install warnings, and release notes now show on the Windows update card too.

**🏃 Longer runs, graceful finishes.** The assistant can take up to 50 model calls per turn by default (configurable up to 500, per workflow) — and when it does hit the limit, it wraps up with a real answer instead of stopping mid-thought.
