This is the final AionUi build distributed through GitHub Releases. From here on, installers and updates come from the official website. See A note on distribution at the bottom for what this means for you, your data, and the open-source repo. Highlights In-App Browser, Controllable by the Agent

• Web pages now open as tabs in the preview panel, and you share one persistent session with the agent — sign in by hand once, and the agent carries that session into whatever it does next.
• The agent reaches the browser through a new built-in MCP server (aionui-browser), so it can navigate, click, and pull data on its own.
• On safety: the obvious way to let an agent drive Chromium is --remote-debugging-port, but that switch is application-wide with no per-target ACL — it would expose every WebContents, including the main window and its preload bridge, to any local process with no authentication. Instead this ships a single-target CDP bridge that exposes only the browser view. Nothing is written to config or the database; the bridge's port and access token travel down the process-inheritance chain, so multiple app instances never cross wires. Conversation Forking
• A branch arrow on the message hover row forks the conversation at that message into a new one and drops you into it — useful for exploring a different path without disturbing the original.
• Where the entry appears follows what the backend can actually do: Codex can fork at any turn, Claude and ACP agents fork at the latest message only (so the copied history matches what the forked session really remembers), and agents without a fork surface don't show the entry at all. Agent-Driven Conversation Naming
• Agents that support it now propose conversation titles automatically. A name you set yourself is never overwritten — only default and derived names stay replaceable. Fixes & Improvements
• The message anchor rail introduced in v2.1.46 now stays clear of message text and covers the full conversation history.
• Database rebuild is gated behind a second confirmation, so a misclick can't wipe your local data.
• GPU-process crash noise is suppressed, and the app now tells you when hardware acceleration has been auto-disabled. The underlying crashes come from end-of-life GPUs with very old drivers rather than a code regression, and the misleading crash reports made that hard to see.
• The workspace toggle stays in the title bar where it belongs.
• Team run state handles omitted slot work instead of getting confused by it.
• Preview file I/O migrated to ChatFileRef /content endpoints; PDFs now load via a stream URL, and Office files resolve through ChatFileRef. Engine updates (AionCore v0.1.57 → v0.1.58)
• Conversation forking and agent-driven session naming are backed end-to-end here — the backend half of both features above.
• Claude session cost now stays cumulative across process respawns instead of resetting.
• Progress cards settle correctly through session teardown and resume. Previously, if the idle reaper removed a task mid-flight while the underlying work kept running, the stored row stayed running — leaving a View Steps spinner turning for hours over a task that had already succeeded.
• Resumed conversations keep the thought-level picker.
• The managed Node version probe now retries transient failures instead of giving up on the first miss. A note on distribution AionUi and its commercial counterpart share a package name but use different signatures, and operating systems refuse overwrite installs across signatures. In-app updating simply cannot carry you across, so this build ships in "discontinued mode": startup auto-checks are silenced, and the manual update check opens a migration letter pointing to the official website instead. When you do move over:
• Your conversations and files stay local. The agent runs on your own machine; content is never uploaded to our servers.
• Your local data carries over as-is. After the first sign-in, the new version inherits your existing conversations, settings, and API keys in place — no reconfiguration. This is a one-time migration: once it completes, the new version owns that data and this build is no longer its entry point.
• No paywall attached. However you use it now is how you'll keep using it; what's free today stays free.
• The open-source repo keeps updating. Core features stay in sync, and the open-source spirit doesn't change. The new version requires sign-in (Google today, more methods on the way). The reason is the same one behind this change: once an installer is out the door we can't reach it again, so fixes never arrive and new skills and assistants can't sync — and the things many of you have asked for, like multiple accounts, data sync, and safer mobile collaboration, all need a proper service layer underneath. What's next, still open source: team board (a global view of multi-agent collaboration), conversation archive, data sync across devices, and broader organizational collaboration. It's still your choice. If AionUi is part of your daily workflow, we'd suggest moving to the new version — new capabilities land there first. If you prefer local DIY, keep pulling this repo and building it yourself. And if you'd rather not upgrade yet, this version keeps working; it just won't receive updates.
