  • Centralized and improved assertion helpers in tests to reduce duplication and increase maintainability. (dc883a, 0e1887, a86c98) (Eric Ma)
  • Updated PR description guidelines in AGENTS.md with a detailed template and best practices to improve contribution quality and clarity. (e41942) (Eric Ma)

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed canvas rendering issue where committee response nodes did not appear until page refresh due to race conditions between async node rendering and synchronous edge addition. (5477ee) (Eric Ma)
  • Corrected formatting issues in the v0.1.57 release notes and improved readability in AGENTS.md documentation. (b929a2) (Eric Ma)

Deprecations

  • Disabled the multiplayer UI temporarily. (3e380f) (Eric Ma)

  • Changed running code indicator to a pulsing border animation for a more subtle and distinctive visual effect (c135f6) (Eric Ma)

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed auto-release workflow failure by adding the required 'v' prefix to the version flag for llamabot, ensuring release notes are generated correctly (f56fd2) (Eric Ma)
  • Fixed code node scrolling by removing conflicting flex constraints and letting the parent container handle scrolling properly (206990) (Eric Ma)
  • Fixed code node output panel positioning and scrolling in viewport-fitted mode for better UI behavior (773047) (github-actions)
  • Fixed code execution state visualization by changing the indicator from a blue banner to a header color, ensuring visibility regardless of scroll position (78cbe2) (Eric Ma)
  • Fixed CSS and JS to improve code-display scrolling and execution state styling, including pulse animations and color adjustments (f6051b) (Eric Ma)
  • Fixed release notes generation to explicitly pass the version flag to llamabot, preventing incorrect version inference (905ff2) (Eric Ma)
  • Addressed Copilot review comments by removing redundant CSS rules and improving scroll container detection with Set deduplication (dc33e1) (Eric Ma)

Deprecations

  • Removed unused pulse-border animation in favor of pulse animation for header backgrounds (f6051b) (Eric Ma)

Version 0.1.54

This release focuses on fixing a critical bug related to edge positioning during node resizing, improving test coverage to prevent regressions, and updating dependencies.

New Features

  • Added comprehensive regression tests to ensure edge positions remain stable when nodes are resized or moved, including multiple edges and floating point tolerance comparisons (df182a) (Eric Ma)

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed edge position jumps during node resize by ensuring the current node position is read from the DOM wrapper instead of using stale cached data, preventing edges from snapping incorrectly (df182a) (Eric Ma)

Version 0.1.53

This release introduces a major enhancement with the complete migration to a 3-level plugin architecture. This new system enables community contributions and extensibility through custom node types, feature plugins for complex workflows, and extension hooks to modify existing behaviors. The update maintains full backward compatibility with no breaking changes and includes comprehensive documentation and thorough testing.

New Features

  • Complete implementation of a 3-level plugin architecture supporting custom node types, feature plugins, and extension hooks for enhanced extensibility and community contributions (0b8738) (Eric Ma)

Version 0.1.52

This release includes important bug fixes to improve the user interface during auto-layout animations and enhancements to the documentation deployment process to ensure more reliable and timely updates.

New Features

  • Added comprehensive regression tests to ensure output panels stay attached to their parent nodes during layout animations (3be0db) (Eric Ma)

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed output drawer panels staying detached during auto-layout animations by updating their positions alongside parent nodes (3be0db) (Eric Ma)
  • Changed documentation deployment to use a scheduled daily run instead of a workflow trigger, avoiding GitHub token permission issues and ensuring docs are published within 24 hours of a release (e44b09) (Eric Ma)
  • Updated docs workflow to use a Personal Access Token (PAT) for automatic triggering, replacing the broken GitHub token trigger and improving automation reliability (2cc1e2) (Eric Ma)

Deprecations

  • Removed the broken 'gh workflow run' step from the auto-release process due to GitHub token restrictions (e44b09) (Eric Ma)

Version 0.1.51

This release introduces a major improvement in query refinement by implementing structured generation with enhanced reliability and validation. It also includes important bug fixes related to module imports, scrolling behavior, and query handling, as well as documentation updates to enforce ES module usage and improve release note deployment.

New Features

  • Implement structured generation for query refinement using a Pydantic model to ensure consistent, validated JSON output and remove parsing errors. This adds multiple fallback layers and eliminates unwanted formatting or extra text in responses. (9d0757) (Eric Ma)
  • Add a regression test suite to verify that all core modules import correctly without relying on global window variables, preventing future module dependency issues. (f93178) (Eric Ma)

  • Enable scrolling inside code nodes by updating event handlers and CSS styles, fixing issues where long code blocks could not be scrolled. (e1387a) (Eric Ma)
  • Fix blog post ordering by including full timestamps in release note frontmatter, ensuring correct chronological sorting even when multiple releases occur on the same day. (89efe8) (Eric Ma)
  • Trigger documentation deployment automatically after releases by adding manual workflow dispatch and updating GitHub Actions workflows to overcome security limitations. (ca9304) (Eric Ma)

Deprecations

  • Update architecture guide to mandate exclusive use of ES modules, removing outdated gradual migration advice and discouraging use of global window variables with clear refactoring guidance. (6d7fd9) (Eric Ma)
