Agent Zero v1.14: Guided Onboarding, Host Browser, & Plugin Separation
v1.14 makes Agent Zero easier to start and cleaner to operate. The release adds guided first-run onboarding, brings Host Browser routing to the A0 CLI connector, separates Desktop and Office into focused plugins, and tightens tool, prompt, UI, documentation, and security behavior across the platform.
Agent Zero v1.13: ODF-First Office, Persistent Desktop, & Stable Browser Switching
v1.13 makes Office workflows ODF-first, keeps the Linux Desktop lifecycle stable across canvases and modals, improves Browser switching and screenshot workflows, removes canvas sizing limits, and adds Bash-style chat input history.
Agent Zero v1.12: PTY Stability, Browser Recovery, & Deferred Desktop Startup
v1.12 is a stability-focused release for sustained Agent Zero sessions. It closes PTY descriptor leaks, recovers cleanly from stale Browser contexts, routes Desktop URLs into the Browser, makes self-update backups resilient to broken symlinks, and starts the Desktop runtime only when it is needed.
Agent Zero v1.11: Multi-Tab Browser, LibreOffice Desktop, & File Browser Bulk Actions
v1.11 sharpens Agent Zero's browser into a stronger multi-tab workspace, replaces the Office stack with a LibreOffice-backed Desktop runtime, adds bulk operations to the file browser, simplifies navigation, and hardens the canvas, skills, Time Travel, and OAuth flows.
Agent Zero v1.10: Built-in Browser, Canvas, & Agent Profiles
v1.10 introduces Agent Zero's new direct Playwright-powered Browser, ChatGPT/Codex account OAuth, Time Travel workspace history, Universal and Office Canvas surfaces, context-scoped Agent Profiles, project-scoped LLM presets, and a broad set of connector, UI, integration, and security improvements.

v1.9 closes two important security issues, adds the built-in A0 CLI Connector and its setup skill, restores lightweight lexical skill recall, gives Browser Agent runs their own model preset, and redesigns messaging integration setup flows across email, Telegram, and WhatsApp.
Agent Zero v1.8: Built-in Skills Selector, Memory Hardening, & Tool Validation Fixes

Agent Zero v1.7: Prompt Guidance Overhaul, Streaming Tool Dispatch, & Plugin Discovery
v1.7 tightens default prompts to a compact assembled stack while preserving guardrails, dispatches tool calls as soon as a complete JSON object appears in the model stream, and adds discovery cards on the welcome experience so new users can find the Plugin Hub and messaging integrations quickly.
Agent Zero v1.6: WhatsApp Integration, UI Server Restructuring, & Settings Enhancements
v1.6 introduces a powerful new WhatsApp integration plugin, major UI server restructuring into modular components, Settings enhancements ensuring API keys aren't overwritten, and update system improvements.
