* docs(changelog): publish v0.2.19 release notes
Today's release covers 23 commits since v0.2.18. Headline items are the
macOS dock unread badge with focus-gated inbox notifications, the daemon
WebSocket task wakeup path that drops task startup latency, and a
client-side label filter on the issue list. Improvements / fixes round
out comment linkify, optimistic label attach, agent-to-agent mention
loop prevention, Codex turn timeouts, Windows daemon survivability, and
the comment-delete task cancellation.
The Kiro CLI runtime addition is intentionally omitted pending a
chat-mode regression flagged before release.
* docs(changelog): include Kiro CLI runtime, drop assignee-default line
Per release sign-off: Kiro CLI ACP runtime ships in v0.2.19 once the
chat-mode regression is fixed, so it goes back into the headline. The
"create-issue remembers last assignee" line is dropped from features
to keep the list to four spotlight items.
* docs(changelog): publish v0.2.18 release notes
Today's release covers 13 PRs since v0.2.17. Spotlight is the full Issue
Labels feature (backend + CLI + Web UI), plus the Labs settings tab,
sidebar invitation indicator, and the sharded Redis realtime relay.
Improvements and fixes round out comment rendering, project-icon usage
across the app, self-host env-var pass-through, and several
Windows-specific agent issues.
* docs(changelog): simplify v0.2.18 entries
Trim each line to a short, user-facing sentence; drop implementation
detail (sharded relay, build-id symlinks, --description-stdin, etc.) per
review feedback that the previous draft was too detailed.
* docs(changelog): publish v0.2.17 release notes
Covers commits between v0.2.16 (2026-04-24) and the v0.2.17 cut
(2026-04-26): --custom-env flag for agents, agent CLI stderr tail in
failure messages, configurable update download timeout, plus reliability
fixes around daemon cancellation, server heartbeat, Codex execenv, Pi
skills path, Windows console, CJK markdown URLs, attachment downloads
and autopilot run-only context.
Both en.ts and zh.ts updated.
* docs(changelog): trim small/internal items from v0.2.17 entry
Drops items that read as internal polish or were too narrow to belong in
release notes:
- Skills landing intro polish
- Codex execenv plugin-cache cleanup
- CLI exact-name/ShortID assignee resolution
- Settings invite role label rendering
- Skills SKILL.md fast-path
- CJK markdown URL-boundary fix
- Relative attachment download URLs
Keeps the user-facing wins: --custom-env, stderr-tail in failure
messages, configurable update timeout, cancelled-task classification,
heartbeat probe/claim split, plus the higher-impact fixes.
* docs(autopilot): rename Routines → Autopilots to match product UI
Unify naming between docs and product. Sidebar label, URL route,
CLI command, and onboarding copy all call this feature "Autopilot";
the docs were the only surface that diverged. Aligning the docs to
the product (rather than the reverse) because the 830+ code-side
references would be a much larger rename to propagate.
- Rename routines.mdx / routines.zh.mdx → autopilots.mdx / autopilots.zh.mdx
- Update meta.json / meta.zh.json index entries (routines → autopilots)
- Drop the reconciliation note ("docs say Routines, CLI says autopilot")
that shipped in the original routines.mdx and the cli.mdx section header
- Update cross-references in cli, how-multica-works, tasks,
assigning-issues, chat, mentioning-agents, daemon-runtimes (EN + ZH)

* feat(onboarding): link to docs from key steps and starter tasks
Users who want to dig deeper now have a next hop from inside the flow
instead of having to dig through the help menu. Placed as secondary
links (muted, underline-offset-4) so they don't pull focus from the
primary CTA on each step.
Placement — one link per surface, placed in secondary regions:
- Welcome: "Learn how Multica works" below the subhead
- Questionnaire: "Learn how agents work" in the Why-we-ask aside
- Runtime aside (shared by desktop + web): "Learn about runtimes"
- Agent step: "Creating your first agent" in the About-agents aside
- StarterContentPrompt dialog: "Learn how Multica works"
Starter tasks (content/starter-content-templates.ts): added a single
"Learn about X" tail link per task, only on first occurrence of each
concept within a branch. 8 links on the agent-guided branch + 8 on
the self-serve branch + 1 on the welcome issue header (17 total).
URL scheme: absolute https://multica.ai/docs/{slug} throughout —
absolute so desktop (Electron) opens them in the system browser, and
the /en prefix is omitted because the docs middleware redirects it
away (English is the default, Chinese is /zh/).

* feat(landing): add docs link to footer and how-it-works section
Docs were previously reachable only from the in-app help menu. Landing
now surfaces them in two places, both locale-aware (/docs for English,
/docs/zh for Chinese):
- Footer Resources group: Documentation link was pointing at the
GitHub repo; replaced with the real docs URL
- How-It-Works section CTA row: added "Read the docs" between the
primary CTA and the GitHub link, same ghost styling
Locale resolution: href is picked per-render based on the landing's
current locale (cookie-driven via useLocale). The docs app itself
does not auto-detect language, so we must pick the right path
explicitly when emitting the link.

* fix(onboarding): clean up Autopilot rename leftovers and link formatting
- comments.mdx: "not routine updates" → "not day-to-day updates"
(adjectival holdover now that the feature is renamed Autopilot;
zeroes out remaining "routine" mentions in user-facing docs)
- starter-content-templates.ts: move the arrow inside the markdown
link — "[text →](url)" instead of "→ [text](url)" — so the arrow
is part of the clickable region. 17 occurrences.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix(onboarding): drop docs link from welcome screen and starter-content dialog
"Learn how Multica works" was showing up too often in the first two
screens users see. Keep the link in the post-import welcome issue
header (where users actually have time to explore); remove it from
the two earlier surfaces where it competes with the primary CTA.

* feat(landing): add sticky date navigation to changelog page
Adds a right-side "On this page" nav that lists every release date and
scroll-spies the active entry as the user reads through the changelog.
Dates are formatted per locale (e.g. "April 22" / "4月22日").
* feat(landing): move changelog date nav to left as timeline sidebar
Moves the date navigation from the right to the left and restyles it
as a grouped timeline:
- Releases are grouped under a month-year header ("April 2026").
- A vertical rail connects a dot per release; the active dot is filled
with a soft halo ring, the row text goes full-opacity + semibold.
- Clicking a date smooth-scrolls to the release and pins the hash; a
short nav lock suppresses scroll-spy flicker while the page animates.
- Sidebar is sticky up to viewport height, scrollable when there are
many releases; on <lg the sidebar collapses and content falls back
to the existing centered layout.
- Entry headers now render the full localized date for clarity.
Label changed from "On this page" / "本页目录" to "All releases" /
"历史版本" to match the new nav-style role.
* fix(landing): align changelog nav day/version columns
Reserve a fixed-width right-aligned slot for the day number so
single-digit days (e.g. "1", "9") don't shift the version column.

* docs(changelog): publish v0.2.14 + v0.2.15 release notes
Summarises the 25 commits shipped today across both releases for the public changelog page, in English and Chinese.
* docs(changelog): merge v0.2.14+v0.2.15 into one entry, trim, reclassify Gemini as fix
Per review: today's two releases read better as one set of notes; tightened
bullets; moved the Gemini 3 runtime-list update from Features to Fixes.
* docs(changelog): drop last 3 features from v0.2.15 entry per review
* docs(download): add redesign plan and copy positioning source of truth
Captures motivation (Desktop is Multica's native form; CLI is a
distinct scenario for servers/remote boxes, not a Desktop fallback),
four-step execution plan, and every touchpoint's current-vs-new
copy in EN + ZH. Subsequent UI steps read strings from the
positioning doc instead of inventing them inline.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* feat(web): /download page with OS auto-detection
New landing-group route that serves as the single canonical download
destination. Auto-detects OS + arch via navigator.userAgentData
(Chromium) with UA-string fallback, then surfaces the matching
Desktop installer as the primary CTA. All platforms stay visible
below, plus a CLI section (positioned for servers / remote boxes /
headless setups, not as a lightweight Desktop) and a Cloud waitlist.
Version + asset URLs come from api.github.com/repos/.../releases/latest
with Vercel ISR (revalidate=300) so every release automatically
propagates — no manual redeploy. Optional GITHUB_TOKEN env var lifts
the 60/hr unauthenticated rate limit for local dev. Failure
degrades cleanly to "Version unavailable" + a link to GitHub
releases.
Also points landing hero + footer Download links at /download
(previously pointed at the GitHub releases page directly), and
re-exports CloudWaitlistExpand from @multica/views/onboarding so
the new Cloud section can reuse the existing form.
Intel Mac has no binary today (electron-builder targets mac arm64
only); the page is honest about it and routes Intel users to CLI.

* feat(onboarding): rewrite Step 3 fork + web Welcome Desktop CTA
Welcome screen now self-segments: on web (runtimeInstructions
present), the primary CTA is "Download Desktop" with a benefit-led
subtitle ("Desktop bundles the runtime — nothing to install.
Continue on web to connect your own CLI.") that lets developers
with their own CLI recognize their path while guiding everyone
else toward the desktop app. Desktop branch drops the "3 minutes"
estimate in favor of the aha promise. Download button is a real
<a href> link so middle-click / copy-link / screen readers all
behave correctly.
Step 3 fork drops the stale isMac gate — Windows / Linux binaries
now ship, the macOS-only muted card was a lie. The single Desktop
card now routes to /download (not GitHub releases directly) so
users land on the auto-detect page. CLI card is reframed around
its real scenario (servers, remote dev boxes, headless) rather
than posing as a lightweight Desktop, and the CLI dialog's stall
tier redirects users to Desktop instead of Cloud waitlist when
the daemon never registers — Desktop is the genuine retreat.
cli-install-instructions gets a one-liner acknowledging the CLI's
server use case, mirroring the card copy.

* feat(web,auth): desktop promotion on login + solid landing hero download
LoginPage accepts a new `extra?: ReactNode` slot rendered below the
Google button. The web shell injects a hardcoded-EN "Prefer the
desktop app? Download →" nudge there — catching users at their
lowest-investment moment, before they've typed an email. Desktop's
login wrapper omits the slot (a download prompt inside the app
would be absurd), so only the web surface renders it.
Copy is English-only for now because the /login route sits outside
the landing group's LocaleProvider. Lifting locale detection into
the root layout would force every page dynamic and kill the Router
Cache — a trade-off not worth two strings. The `auth.login.extra*`
i18n keys added during Step 2 are removed for the same reason:
they're dead code without a LocaleProvider wrapping login.
Landing hero "Download Desktop" upgrades from ghost to solid and
swaps its handwritten monitor SVG for lucide-react's Download
icon. Both hero CTAs are now solid-weighted — the icon + distinct
label differentiates them. href already points to /download from
the Step 2 landing nav pass.

* fix(web/download): anchor dark LandingHeader with relative wrapper
LandingHeader's dark variant uses `absolute top-0 inset-x-0`, which
only reads correctly when wrapped by a positioned ancestor — see
multica-landing.tsx:14 for the canonical pattern. Without the
wrapper the header escaped to the initial containing block and
appeared fixed as users scrolled the page.
Also drops the <main> element around the body sections for
consistency with the rest of the landing group (neither
multica-landing nor about-page-client wraps in <main>).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix(landing/hero): keep Download Desktop as ghost to preserve CTA hierarchy
Upgrading to solid alongside the existing "Start free trial" CTA
killed the primary / secondary distinction — both buttons were
white on dark, competing for attention. Revert to ghost so the
conversion CTA (trial) stays the visual primary. The lucide
Download icon swap stays (cleaner than the handwritten monitor
SVG).

* test(onboarding): update platform-fork assertions for /download route
The Desktop card in Step 3 now opens the new /download page instead
of GitHub releases, and the post-click feedback text changed to
match ("Continuing on the download page…" in place of "Downloading
Multica…"). Update the expectations and drop the isMac navigator
stub that was only needed when the component had a macOS-only
primary branch.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Merge origin/main into NevilleQingNY/download-redesign
Main added onboarding funnel analytics (#1489) that captures
`is_mac` as a dimension for each Step 3 path selection. This
branch had removed the `isMac` state because the UI no longer
branches on it (Windows / Linux desktop builds ship now). Git
auto-merged the two diffs into a file that referenced a deleted
variable.
Reintroduce `isMac` as a lazy client-only computation scoped to
analytics capture only — the UI stays platform-agnostic. Handlers
fire client-side so SSR safety isn't needed; a plain const reads
navigator on first render.
typecheck passes across all 6 packages; all 166 views tests
green.

* feat(analytics): instrument download funnel across 5 surfaces + /download
Closes the gap left by PR #1489: onboarding analytics captured Step
3 path selection but missed the four surfaces that advertise the
desktop app earlier in the funnel (landing hero, landing footer,
login, Welcome), and the /download page itself had zero coverage —
so we could see the last-mile path but not the top-of-funnel entry
nor the page-to-installer conversion.
Three new events, wired via `@multica/core/analytics`:
1. `download_intent_expressed` fires on any CTA pointing at
/download. `source` splits the five surfaces cleanly; every
authenticated emission also writes `platform_preference=desktop`
on the person (same convention Step 3 already uses).
2. `download_page_viewed` fires once per /download mount after OS
detect resolves. Carries `detected_os`, `detected_arch`,
`detect_confident` (Chromium userAgentData vs UA fallback), and
`version_available` so the Safari-on-Mac arm64-default cohort
and GitHub-rate-limited degraded sessions are each isolable.
Also $set_once's `first_detected_os/arch` on the person so every
downstream event gains a platform dimension without re-emitting.
3. `download_initiated` fires on every installer click — Hero's
primary CTA and each All Platforms matrix row. `primary_cta`
splits hero-recommended from manual picks; `matched_detect`
quantifies detect accuracy from the single event (no cross-join
to download_page_viewed needed).
Augments the existing `onboarding_runtime_path_selected` with a
`source: "step3"` property — literal today, reserved for future
surfaces reusing the same event name. `is_mac` kept for
backward-compat with PR #1489's dashboards; the new events use
`detected_os` + `detected_arch` instead.
New `setPersonPropertiesOnce` wire helper in
`packages/core/analytics/download.ts` for `$set_once` — mirrors
the backend's `Event.SetOnce` semantics.
docs/analytics.md update lands in the follow-up commit.

* docs(analytics): document download_intent_expressed / page_viewed / initiated
Adds the three new download-funnel events to the frontend-only
section. Also notes the semantic shift on
onboarding_runtime_path_selected: its `path: "download_desktop"`
now signals Step 3 path choice, not actual download start —
download_intent_expressed is the new canonical "user expressed
intent to download desktop" signal across surfaces.

* docs: add v0.2.11 changelog (2026-04-21)
Combines the v0.2.9 / v0.2.10 / v0.2.11 releases (plus post-v0.2.11
main commits) into a single landing-page entry, covering the PostHog
pipeline, desktop cross-platform packaging, board pagination and the
recent inbox / agent-task / markdown fixes.
* docs: trim v0.2.11 changelog to user-visible highlights
Drop minor fixes and CLI/daemon polish items — keep only the headline
features and the visible user-facing fixes.
* docs: reprioritize v0.2.11 changelog for external readers
Drop internal MUL-/#PR references, swap in the higher-impact fixes
(daemon workspace isolation, multica update + Windows daemon, board
card description, PostHog default off) that a self-hosted user
actually notices.
* docs: drop PostHog items from v0.2.11, promote multica update to feature
Analytics plumbing is not user-perceivable; replace the PostHog feature
and the PostHog default-off fix with multica update (CLI self-update)
as a feature and keep the Windows daemon persistence as a fix.
* docs: add OpenClaw model read fix to v0.2.11 changelog
Closes#930
- Added environment variables to control signups
- Updated frontend to hide signup text when disabled
- Added backend check to block new user creation via magic link
- Updated .env.example
Add a "Download Desktop" button in the hero section alongside the
existing CTA and GitHub buttons, linking to the latest GitHub release.
Also add a Desktop link in the footer product group for both EN and ZH.
Decouple install.sh from environment configuration — install.sh now only
installs the CLI binary (and optionally Docker via --with-server), while
all environment configuration moves to `multica setup` subcommands.
Key changes:
- install.sh: remove config writes, rename --local to --with-server
- multica setup: add cloud/self-host subcommands with --server-url,
--app-url, --port, --frontend-port flags and --profile support
- Add config overwrite protection with interactive prompt
- Remove redundant commands: `config local`, `auth login` alias
- Replace silent multica.ai fallbacks with explicit errors
- Onboarding wizard: dynamically show correct setup command for
Cloud vs Self-host environments
- Update all docs, landing page, and install scripts for consistency
* docs: add v0.1.22 changelog (2026-04-10)
* docs: rewrite v0.1.22 changelog with categorized sections
- Add features/improvements/fixes categories to changelog type and component
- Remove desktop/Electron mentions (not yet released)
- Rewrite all entries with detailed descriptions based on actual commit messages
- Component renders category headers when present, falls back to flat list for older entries
- Both en and zh updated
* docs: trim v0.1.22 changelog entries for conciseness
* feat(landing): add OpenClaw and OpenCode to landing page
The landing page hero "Works with" section and i18n text only listed
Claude Code and Codex. Updated to include all four supported runtimes:
Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, and OpenCode.

* refactor: remove agent triggers config field
Remove the triggers field from agent configuration. The on_assign,
on_comment, and on_mention behaviors are now always enabled (hardcoded),
as decided in the Agentflow design discussion (MUL-372).
Changes:
- Database: migration 032 drops triggers column from agent table
- Backend: remove triggers from create/update agent APIs and response
- Backend: simplify trigger-checking logic to always-enabled
- Frontend: remove TriggersTab UI and AgentTrigger types
- Tests: remove trigger config unit tests (no longer configurable)

The tools field was a placeholder — stored in the DB and shown in the
UI but never passed to the daemon or used at runtime.
- Database: migration 032 now also drops tools column
- Backend: remove tools from create/update agent APIs and response
