This update is all about giving you better control and visibility over your AI assistants. Whether you are a student watching your budget or a professional managing multiple AI "agents," these changes make it much easier to see what your AI is doing, how much it costs, and how to keep it running smoothly.
What's new
- Budget and Usage Dashboards: There is a new visual control panel that shows you exactly how much money and computing power your AI is using.
- Agent Profiles for Enterprise: If you use the cloud version, you can now create specific profiles for your AI agents, allowing you to customize their personalities or roles for different tasks.
- Email Status Indicator: The user interface now clearly shows whether email notifications (used for sending alerts) are turned on and working properly.
Improvements
- Better Project Tracking: The system now attaches "metadata" (extra details about your code project) to its activity logs. This makes it much easier to troubleshoot what the AI was doing and where.
- Behind-the-Scenes Updates: The software's internal developer tools (SDKs) and cloud systems were updated to their latest versions to keep everything secure and up to date.
Fixes
- Database Connection Leak: Previously, when the system received automated web messages (called webhooks), it would sometimes forget to close its connection to the database. Over time, these "leaked" connections would pile up and slow down the system. This leak has been plugged.
