Update log

Patch notes

v1.36.1 July 28, 2026 Fix
  • Galaxy view displayed permanently. A CSS rule was forcing the visualization to show as soon as the app launched, ignoring its default hidden state. Fixed: it now only opens via its dedicated icon.
v1.36.0 July 28, 2026 Fix
  • Missed update notification. In some cases, the startup update check completed before the interface had finished loading, and the notification was then silently lost (no "Update available" banner in the sidebar, despite a new version having been published). Fixed.
v1.35.0 July 28, 2026 New
  • Real-time visualization of the agent's reasoning. New icon in the top-right of the app opening a "galaxy" view: each tool used by the agent appears as a glowing node linked to the previous ones in real time, colored by category (read, write, web search, etc.), with an animated starfield background and a hover tooltip to see the detail of each step.
v1.34.0 July 28, 2026 New
  • Non-destructive undos. Reverting to a checkpoint or undoing a response's changes never erases what was undone: it's archived, and a "Restore" button lets you switch between both states at will, even after closing and reopening the app.
  • Preference memory. In agent mode, if you clearly express a lasting code preference, LiveAI can offer to remember it for all your future projects — always with your explicit confirmation. Viewable and editable under Settings → Memory.
v1.33.0 July 27, 2026 Improvement
  • New accent color across the whole LiveAI ecosystem: burgundy, replacing yellow — site, app, and emails all harmonized
  • App dark mode: a lighter variant of the burgundy used specifically to stay readable on a dark background (the original accent had too little contrast there)
Site July 27, 2026 Improvement
  • New visual identity across the whole site: cool stone and pine green palette (replacing cream/terracotta), IBM Plex typography (Serif, Sans, Mono) instead of Fraunces/Inter
  • Text/background contrasts checked (AA/AAA) across all color combinations
v1.32.0 July 27, 2026 Improvement
  • Much more detailed site statistics (Settings → Site Statistics): day-by-day pageviews chart, traffic sources, countries, browsers, operating systems, and device types
  • New metrics: pages per visit, average visit duration, bounce rate
  • Choice of period: 7, 30, or 90 days
  • Fix: visitor and pageview counters always showed 0 — the analytics server's response wasn't being read in the right format
  • Fix: the daily chart appeared empty due to a timezone offset in the day-by-day grouping
v1.31.0 July 27, 2026 New
  • Automatic verification of the agent's work. After modifying files, the agent runs the project's tests (or the build, failing that), reads the errors and fixes them itself — up to 3 attempts — instead of stopping at "done." The result is shown in the conversation: verified, or flagged as unresolved.
  • Automatic detection of the verification system: npm test, npm run build, pytest, go test, cargo test, Maven, Gradle
  • If the project has no recognized test system, nothing is triggered — no false failures
  • Enable it in Settings → Permissions (off by default: each correction consumes extra tokens, to be weighed against the per-task budget)
  • Security fix found during testing: running tests concatenated the working directory path into a shell command without escaping it. A project located in a folder whose name contains a special character (for example "&") could trigger unintended command execution. The path is now properly isolated.
Security July 27, 2026 Audit
  • Agent mode: system commands (shell, install, processes) now require confirmation even in "Full access" mode, as previously announced — until now they ran without confirmation in that mode
  • Agent mode: symbolic links pointing outside the working directory are now blocked (a project opened from an untrusted source could use them to have the agent read files outside its scope)
  • Password reset: all open sessions are now signed out, instead of remaining valid
  • App: links contained in a response can no longer make the app window navigate to a third-party site
  • Attached images now display correctly again in the conversation
  • Accounts: data writes are now atomic, an interruption mid-write can no longer corrupt them; automatic daily backups put in place
  • Site: content security policy added, API access restricted to legitimate origins, server hardening
  • Privacy: the policy now describes the site's audience measurement (self-hosted, no cookies or IP addresses recorded)
Site July 27, 2026 Legal
  • New Legal Notice, Terms of Sale, and Privacy Policy pages, linked from the footer of the entire site
  • The publisher's legal identity will be completed once the company is registered; the described terms (data, payment, cancellation) are already final
Site July 27, 2026 Improvement
  • Waitlist for the Mac version: enter your email from the homepage to be notified as soon as it launches
  • Sitemap updated with all site pages for better search indexing
Site July 27, 2026 Improvement
  • Added an interface preview directly on the homepage
  • New Pricing page detailing LiveAI built-in's packs and subscriptions
  • New FAQ page answering the most common questions
v1.30.0 July 27, 2026 New
  • Conversation search now also covers message content, not just titles
  • Manual checkpoints during an agent task: mark a point you can return to precisely, rather than keeping or undoing everything
  • Library of reusable prompts, accessible from the "+" button in the message field
  • Token usage chart for the last 14 days under Settings → Usage
  • Compare mode: sends the same question to your configured provider and to LiveAI built-in in parallel, with responses shown side by side
  • Scheduled tasks: set up a recurring message (fixed time, simple chat) that runs automatically as long as the app is open
v1.29.0 July 27, 2026 New
  • Review before applying: in Settings → Permissions, enable review of every file change — the agent shows the exact diff and waits for your approval before writing anything to disk
  • Per-task token budget: an optional limit beyond which the agent stops and asks for confirmation before continuing, instead of consuming tokens without limit
v1.28.0 July 27, 2026 Security
  • Project hooks (scripts automatically run by the agent) are now disabled by default — enable them explicitly in Settings → Capabilities, for a working directory you trust
  • External tools declared by a project are now treated by default as sensitive actions (the same confirmations as a file write), unless explicitly declared otherwise
  • The project conventions file (LIVEAI.md) is now treated as information about the project, never as an instruction that overrides the agent's security rules
v1.27.0 July 27, 2026 New
  • Several independent reads requested at once by the agent (files, searches) now run in parallel instead of one at a time
  • Automatic context compaction for long tasks, to avoid exceeding token limits
  • Automatic formatting of files modified by the agent (prettier, black, gofmt, rustfmt depending on the language, when available)
  • System of project hooks and connectable external tools, to extend the agent without touching LiveAI's code
  • Ability to attach an image to a message (useful with a model that can interpret it, e.g. Claude)
v1.26.0 July 27, 2026 New
  • New tool for atomically editing multiple files in a single operation (everything is applied, or nothing is)
  • New symbol search tool (function, class, variable), to navigate code faster
  • Project conventions file (LIVEAI.md), read automatically at the start of every task
  • The agent can now delegate an autonomous sub-task to a separate reasoning thread, which returns with a summary
  • Resuming a task interrupted by closing the app: a banner offers to continue exactly where it left off
v1.25.0 July 26, 2026 New
  • The agent now proposes a plan in a few bullet points before acting — you approve or decline before it touches a single file
  • An "Undo this response's changes" button appears after a task that modified files: one click restores everything to its prior state
  • Live console for processes launched by the agent (servers, scripts): output is shown in real time in a dedicated panel
  • If the agent gets stuck (same action repeated), it now receives a hint to change approach before the automatic stop kicks in as a last resort
  • New code search tool (like grep) to locate a feature without guessing file names
  • New tool for running the project's tests, with automatic detection (npm, pytest, go, cargo, mvn, gradle)
  • Git context (branch, pending changes, recent commits) automatically injected at the start of every agent task
  • Persistent project memory: the agent can save useful notes (conventions, pitfalls) that are automatically re-read on later tasks for the same project
  • The agent's token counter and running tasks now genuinely update in real time (AI provider calls switched to streaming for agent mode)
v1.24.0 July 26, 2026 Improvement
  • Clicking outside the Settings window now closes it
  • Fade-in/fade-out animation on all modal windows across the app
  • The "AI-generated responses" message now varies its wording each time instead of staying fixed
  • Faster credit purchases: offer pricing is now cached and server-side checks run in parallel instead of sequentially
  • Fully custom Windows installer: LiveAI-themed styling, options page with launch-at-Windows-startup, finish screen with a link to what's new
v1.23.0 July 26, 2026 New
  • LiveAI built-in switches to real payments: credit packs and subscriptions are now billed under real conditions (testing had until now used dummy cards)
  • Fixed a generic icon mistakenly shown in Windows notifications and the taskbar preview — the LiveAI logo now displays correctly
  • Strengthened the reliability of the credit system against a rare case of duplicate payment profile creation on simultaneous requests
v1.22.0 July 26, 2026 Improvement
  • Hover animations throughout the app: conversations, buttons, settings icons, offer cards — no more abrupt changes, everything is smooth
  • Deleting a conversation: the confirmation box is now styled in the LiveAI theme (no more gray system window), with a small fade-out animation where the conversation was
  • Pinning a conversation now fills the icon on click, for immediate visual feedback
  • The paperclip in the message field is replaced by a "+" button opening a small menu: attach a file, or directly choose the agent's working directory
v1.21.0 July 26, 2026 New
  • Profile customization: choice of avatar color, emoji mode instead of initials, and a short status/bio shown under your name
  • The sidebar avatar is now clickable and opens the profile directly
v1.20.0 July 26, 2026 New
  • New "Subscriptions" setting: shows the active credit subscription (or invites you to pick one), with direct access to the offers
  • The credit balance in the sidebar now links to usage details rather than straight to the purchase page
v1.19.0 July 26, 2026 Improvement
  • LiveAI credit payments are now fully integrated into the app — no more separate window or external web page, the card form displays directly in the modal
  • Animated waiting and confirmation screens (success or failure) during and after payment
v1.18.0 July 25, 2026 New
  • New "LiveAI (built-in)" provider in settings: no personal API key needed, the app runs on credits
  • Credit purchases via Stripe: one-time packs (Discovery, Standard, Intensive) or monthly subscriptions (Essential, Comfort)
  • Credit balance visible in the sidebar and in settings, automatically updated after a purchase
v1.17.0 July 25, 2026 Improvement
  • Visual overhaul of the card shown for code blocks (discreet circular icon, chevron instead of text, neutral style without an overly strong accent color)
v1.16.0 July 24, 2026 New
  • The agent can now start and manage a background process (e.g. a server) without blocking the conversation: start, log reading, sending commands, clean stop
  • Any process still running is automatically stopped when LiveAI closes
  • New full shell access tool to the computer (PowerShell/bash), not limited to the working directory, with systematic confirmation before every command — regardless of permission level
v1.15.0 July 24, 2026 Improvement
  • A modified file's diff now collapses by default into a small dropdown, with a summary (+X −Y lines) visible without expanding it
  • Smoother interface on long agent-mode sessions, with less content to re-render at each step
v1.14.0 July 24, 2026 Improvement
  • The agent now automatically detects loops (the same action repeated identically 3 times in a row) and stops cleanly with a clear message, instead of needlessly continuing
  • The step cap is now just a last-resort safety net (raised to 500) — long, legitimate tasks can run to completion without being artificially cut off
v1.13.0 July 24, 2026 Improvement
  • Agent step limit raised again (20 → 100), acting purely as an anti-infinite-loop safeguard rather than a practical limit
  • The logo shown next to AI messages is now perfectly centered within its badge
  • This badge now has a subtle, fairly quick continuous rise/fall animation, like the liveai.fr site logo
v1.12.1 July 24, 2026 Fix
  • Fixed a crash ("Electron not responding") during a build or JDK installation: these operations used to block the whole app while running, they now run in the background without freezing the interface
  • Agent step limit raised (8 → 20), to allow for longer chains such as "install a JDK then build"
v1.12.0 July 24, 2026 New
  • New dedicated tool to create a Java .jar file in a single call (compilation + packaging), more reliable than chaining separate commands
  • The agent can now install a JDK directly (via winget/Homebrew/apt depending on the platform) when no Java compiler is detected on the machine
  • This installation, which modifies the whole machine and not just the project, always asks for confirmation — even in "Full" permission mode
v1.11.0 July 24, 2026 Fix
  • Updated the list of suggested model names (DeepSeek, Claude, OpenAI, Groq, Mistral, OpenRouter) following renames on the providers' side
  • Default model updated to deepseek-v4-flash
v1.10.0 July 24, 2026 New
  • The agent can now build/compile projects in any common language (Java, C/C++, Go, Rust, C#, Python, Node/TypeScript, Swift, Kotlin...), via the recognized build tools installed on the machine
v1.9.0 July 24, 2026 Improvement
  • Auto-scroll no longer forces the conversation back to the bottom while the AI is writing — you can scroll up through history without being pulled back down with every character
  • Fixed a bug that locked the keyboard and sending after stopping an in-progress generation
  • AI provider and model can now be selected from dropdown lists, instead of manual entry
  • The update-available notification now appears in a compact card above the profile, in the sidebar
v1.8.0 July 24, 2026 Improvement
  • New custom title bar on Windows, with the real LiveAI logo, replacing the original menu bar and min/max/close buttons
  • "New conversation" button re-centered in the sidebar
v1.7.0 July 24, 2026 Security
  • Startup integrity check: the app computes a fingerprint of its own files and compares it to the one generated at release time
  • If a file has been modified or corrupted, a clear message is shown with a button to reinstall a clean version, instead of letting the app crash silently
v1.6.1 July 24, 2026 New
  • One-click update: when a new version is available, a single click downloads and installs the update, without going through the site
  • Fixed a critical packaging bug that prevented the installed app from starting in some cases
  • The full flow (detection, download, installation) was tested under real conditions before release
v1.5.0 July 24, 2026 New
  • Native support for Claude (Anthropic) in addition to OpenAI-compatible providers: LiveAI now handles its specific call format, including for agent mode (tool calls)
  • The Claude provider was tested end-to-end, both simple chat and the agent tool loop, before being made available
v1.4.0 July 24, 2026 Security
  • Security updates enabled automatically on our server infrastructure
  • Closed network access points that were no longer in use
  • Full audit of the mail configuration and account server: no vulnerabilities found in the dependencies
  • Strengthened security headers and permissions across all liveai.fr services
v1.3.0 July 24, 2026 Improvement
  • The liveai.fr link now correctly shows the LiveAI logo in share previews (social networks, messaging apps) and in the browser tab
  • Reworked descriptions across all site pages for a clearer, more engaging preview
  • Automatic confirmation reply when a message is received at contact@liveai.fr, styled consistently with the LiveAI identity
v1.2.0 July 24, 2026 New
  • LiveAI is no longer limited to DeepSeek: you can now use the API key of any OpenAI-compatible provider (OpenAI, Groq, Mistral, OpenRouter…) by simply changing the base URL in settings
  • The model name is now freely customizable, with suggestions for the most common providers
  • The model badge in the top bar now automatically shows the active provider
v1.1.0 July 24, 2026 Security
  • Major update to the app's engine (Electron 31 → 43) to benefit from the latest security fixes
  • API key and login session now encrypted via the operating system's vault, instead of a plain local file
  • Web search results are now treated as untrusted external data, to prevent a trapped page from influencing the agent's behavior
  • HTML/SVG preview in the artifact panel further sandboxed, to prevent any data leakage to the network
  • Links opened from the app in the browser are now restricted to official LiveAI domains
  • Build tools updated, no more known vulnerabilities in the dependencies
v1.0.0 July 23, 2026 First public release
  • First public release of LiveAI, bringing together all the features developed so far (detailed below, version by version)
