Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog.

0.2.0 — 2026-03-26

Reposition Understudy around three ideas that now define the product more clearly in both code and docs: a general-purpose local agent first, modern computer use with bring-your-own API key second, and teach/crystallization/route-aware learning on top. This release also hardens the teach analysis path and aligns release/version metadata across the runtime.

Added

  • Workspace artifact publishing now supports skill, worker, and playbook outputs through the shared teach/task-draft pipeline.
  • Browser routing now supports both managed Playwright sessions and Chrome extension relay attach flows behind the same browser surface.

Changed

  • Refreshed the README, GitHub Pages overview, demo workspaces, and product-design docs to lead with "general agent → computer use → teach and learning", matching the current implementation and product story.
  • Bumped all workspace package versions, CLI/runtime version reporting, and Chrome extension release metadata to 0.2.0.
  • Session-backed teach analysis now uses adaptive evidence-pack sizing by default instead of a hard 2 episodes / 6 keyframes cap.
  • Session-backed teach analysis no longer applies a default hard 120s timeout unless explicitly configured.
  • Teach evidence-pack construction now filters /teach start, /teach stop, and other Understudy recording scaffolding noise before analysis.
  • Removed legacy OpenClaw message / cron compatibility surfaces and metadata.openclaw parsing; the runtime now keeps only the narrower exec fallback for bash-only environments.

Fixed

  • Corrected gateway-backed TUI ordering so tool activity renders before the final assistant reply instead of appearing out of order.
  • Fixed a docs/demo mismatch where the general-agent demo summary still referred to saving output on Desktop instead of Downloads.

0.1.5 — 2026-03-18

Sync workspace/runtime version reporting to the published package version, make dual-registry releases rerun-safe, and align release metadata across the CLI, gateway, MCP client, and Chrome relay extension.

0.1.4 — 2026-03-18

Add the bundled researcher skill, publish releases to GitHub Packages alongside npm, tighten the macOS GUI runtime and grounding stack, remove stale GUI tool-count docs, and clean up release-facing telemetry and teach/tool metadata.

0.1.3 — 2026-03-13

Add MiniMax as a built-in model provider and clarify teach privacy / contributor documentation.

0.1.2 — 2026-03-13

Align GitHub Actions trusted publishing with npm's current Node.js and npm CLI requirements.

0.1.1 — 2026-03-13

Fix npm package runtime dependencies and CLI bootstrap so installed builds can start correctly.

0.1.0 — 2026-03-11

First public release of the Understudy runtime.

Added

  • GUI Runtime: Native GUI toolset (gui_observe, gui_click, gui_drag, gui_scroll, gui_type, gui_key, gui_wait, gui_move) with screenshot-grounded target resolution on macOS. Graceful degradation when grounding or permissions are unavailable.
  • Browser Automation: Playwright managed mode and Chrome extension relay for logged-in tabs.
  • Teach-by-Demonstration: /teach start → record → /teach stop → video-first evidence analysis → clarification dialogue → replay validation → publish as workspace skill.
  • Gateway Server: HTTP + WebSocket + JSON-RPC gateway (default port 23333) with session runtime, policy pipeline, and handler registry.
  • WebChat & Dashboard: Embedded web UIs for chat and gateway control, served directly from the gateway.
  • 8 Channel Adapters: Web, Telegram (grammy), Discord (discord.js), Slack (@slack/bolt), WhatsApp (Baileys), Signal (signal-cli), LINE (REST), iMessage (macOS).
  • 47 Built-in Skills: Apple Notes, Obsidian, GitHub, Slack, Spotify, 1Password, Trello, Bear Notes, Things, and more.
  • Skill System: SKILL.md format with YAML frontmatter, multi-source loading (bundled, managed, workspace, project), eligibility filtering, and skills install / skills uninstall CLI commands.
  • Session Management: Persistent sessions with history, branching, compaction, and run traces.
  • Memory Providers: Semantic memory that persists across sessions.
  • Scheduling: Cron-based scheduled jobs, one-shot timers, and run history.
  • Subagent Delegation: Child sessions for parallel work.
  • CLI: 30+ commands including chat, wizard, agent, gateway, browser, channels, schedule, skills, doctor, health, status, logs, models, config, reset, security, completion.
  • Setup Wizard: Interactive guided setup for model auth, browser extension, GUI permissions, channels, and background service.
  • Plugin System: Plugin registry and loader for extending tools and gateway RPC.
  • CI/CD: GitHub Actions workflow (lint, typecheck, test, build).
  • OpenClaw Compatibility: Tool aliases (exec → bash, cron → schedule, message → message_send) for portable skill migration.
  • Privacy: Local-first design — screenshots, recordings, and traces stay on the user's machine. No telemetry.

Notes

  • Native GUI execution and teach-by-demonstration require macOS today.
  • Core features (CLI, gateway, browser, channels) work cross-platform.
  • Route optimization (Layer 4) and proactive autonomy (Layer 5) are architecturally planned but not yet active.
  • This is the initial public release of Understudy.
