Expands agent capabilities with E2B sandboxes, home snapshots, and workspace-level skill management.

New Features

  • Workspace-level Skill management with draft/publish/version lifecycle
  • Reusable LLM environment variables defined once and referenced everywhere
  • Human-in-the-loop support now works inside Loop and Iteration nodes

Improvements

  • Context-aware history compaction to prevent context window overflow
  • Unified tracing for better observability

Upgrade Notes

New configuration options include `DIFY_AGENT_RUNTIME_BACKEND` for selecting the backend and `docker-compose.e2b.yaml` for E2B stack setup. Ensure you update your environment variables if you switch to the new E2B backend. Note: The provided older release notes are for a different library (Scrapling) and do not apply to this Dify upgrade.
