v1.12.0
2026-04-02Major Features
Automatic Mode for native tool calling
For Select providers that support native tool calling, you no longer need to use @agent to use tools. You can now just use the tools without asking.
If your prompt input does not have the ”@” symbol, your chats will automatically use tools as needed.

Intelligent Tool Selection
We have added a new feature called Intelligent Tool Selection. This feature allows you to load unlimited tools for your agent to use into context with better performance and save up to 80% on token usage every single chat.
Filesystem Agent
We have added a new feature called Filesystem Agent. This feature allows you to use the filesystem of your host machine to search for files and directories.
Document Generation Agent
We have added a new built-in agent for Document Generation. With document generation, you can generate text files, PDFs, Excel files, Docx, and even entire PowerPoint presentations.
