Every Vorno release, newest first. Notes are published from the app's own release notes at the tag that was built, so this page matches what shipped. Binaries live on the releases page, and the app updates itself from that same feed.
October 15, 2026 · pre-release
Control site-opened pop-ups. The browser tool now lists pop-ups opened by a page, reports their IDs after clicks and key presses, and lets an agent focus and use them without losing the site's opener or login state. Selected pop-ups remain the command targe…
October 2, 2026 · pre-release
Added opt-in decision-model controls for Guarded permissions, turn outcomes, adaptive thinking, mid-turn message handling, titles, suggestions, large results and automation conditions. They remain off by default. (from upstream v0.14.0)
October 1, 2026 · pre-release
Optional decision model for classification and scoring. Configure Jev with a supported hosted provider or a local server in AI settings. The decide tool remains disabled until you enable the integration; its results do not grant permissions. (from upstream…
September 25, 2026 · pre-release
Claude Opus 5.5 is the new default. Anthropic's newest Opus (released 2026-09-22) is available on direct Anthropic connections, on AWS Bedrock (us/eu/global inference profiles) and on other Pi-backed Anthropic connections, with the full 1M-token context win…
September 24, 2026 · pre-release
Agents now receive a dedicated developer-context system prompt (from upstream v0.13.4).
September 23, 2026 · pre-release
Automatic handoff on the context warning threshold — A new per-workspace setting (Settings → AI → Token limits → Automatic handoff, off by default). When an interactive session first crosses its warning threshold, Vorno delivers your handoff prompt into it…
September 19, 2026 · pre-release
Fixed the automation "Run test" button delivering prompts with unexpanded $CRAFT variables. A webhook router prompt written against $CRAFTWEBHOOKPAYLOADPATH reached the model as that literal string and the run ended silently with no report. Test runs now ex…
September 17, 2026 · pre-release
Fixed remote/Tailscale access to the desktop WebUI showing "Login page not found". The 0.22.0-beta.1 build shipped without the WebUI login page bundled inside the app, so remote sign-in never worked. The release build now bundles and verifies the WebUI asse…
October 22, 2026 · pre-release
When "Run API sessions in the desktop app" is on, POST /api/sessions accepts three optional fields: name sets the session's title in the session list, projectId puts the session in a project (it inherits the project's working directory), and llmConnection p…
October 21, 2026 · pre-release
Settings → Remote Access has a new option, "Run API sessions in the desktop app" (off by default). When it is on, a session created through the REST API runs as a normal desktop session in the requested workspace: it appears in the session list labelled wit…
October 15, 2026 · pre-release
Large tool results can retain the parts relevant to the agent's stated purpose instead of summarizing them. This optional decision-layer feature sends the full oversized result in parts, plus the agent's purpose, to the configured decision provider. Previou…

Vorno Pages (prerelease)
This is a prerelease. Pages ships off by default in every workspace — nothing changes for a workspace until someone turns it on in Settings → Workspace → Pages, and publishing additionally needs sharing configured, which a default install doesn't have.
September 1, 2026
Per-session browser isolation: each agent session's browser window now has its own private storage partition (cookies, logins, storage), so concurrent sessions can hold different logins on the same site. Manual windows keep the shared partition. Note: sessi…

Pluggable memory: a vendor-neutral provider seam with a built-in default
Memory is now a capability with providers, not a feature of Headroom. A new vendor-neutral MemoryProvider seam (search / save / describe) sits between the agent and whatever stores its memories. Headroom becomes one selectable provider behind the seam rathe…

Headroom context management, Moonshot AI (Kimi K3), and Copilot policy-gated models
Headroom context management, per workspace. Workspace settings gain a Headroom section with a master switch, compression engine preferences, verbosity steering, and a statistics toggle. Settings inherit from instance defaults unless the workspace overrides…

Published task definitions become board cards
None. This is a targeted fix release.
August 20, 2026
Idle agent timeout is now a workspace setting — an idle session's warm agent process is released after a configurable number of minutes (default 60; 0 keeps agents alive until quit). The session itself stays fully usable: the next message transparently rest…
August 18, 2026
Vorno has documentation of its own, at vorno.ai/docs — searchable, and generated from the same guides that ship inside the app, so the published pages are exactly what your build contains. Every release republishes them.
August 15, 2026
Automation refusals are now visible in run history. v0.15.0's loop protection was correct but silent: an action stopped by a guard produced a log line and nothing else, so a rule that worked and then quietly stopped was indistinguishable from one that never…
August 7, 2026
Automations can now act on sessions from any event. set-status, set-labels, and send-message used to be accepted only on WebhookReceived, which made most lifecycle workflows impossible to express. They now work on any automation event — add a label and have…
July 30, 2026
vorno:// links now open Vorno directly. Vorno registers its own vorno:// URL scheme alongside the existing craftagents:// scheme, using the same link format. Links Vorno generates now prefer vorno://, so they open Vorno reliably even when another Craft Agen…

Artifact Storage Plane + Connection Reliability
The first slice of the artifact plane lands alongside a batch of Web UI connection and annotation reliability fixes. Wire-compatible with the prior release.
July 24, 2026
Web UI remote-access fixes
Follow-up bug fixes to the PLAN-022 remote-access package shipped in v0.12.0. No new features; wire-compatible.
July 24, 2026
Agents can create unstarted Tasks on the board with the new createtask tool — title, description, acceptance criteria, sources, skills, LLM connection/model, and working directory; Tasks inherit the current project unless another is specified, and unknown s…

Vorno Branding Cleanup
Web UI is now fully Vorno-branded — the login page shows the Vorno logo, the favicon and the Add-to-Home-Screen / PWA icon are the Vorno mark (previously the old "C"), and the login prompt matches Settings ("Enter your Vorno Web UI password").
July 15, 2026
Remote Access That Actually Works
Remote Web UI access now works through a single port — the WebSocket connection is proxied through the same port the page loads from, so reaching the app from another device (phone, tablet, another computer) only needs one port opened. Previously, remote lo…

Projects, Cleaner Chrome, and Settings Fixes
Projects are now first-class citizens — clicking a project in the sidebar opens a dedicated view of that project's sessions (titled with the project name, sidebar highlighted), and clicking All Sessions or any other navigation fully exits the project scope…

The Vorno Identity Release
Vorno gets its face: the vortex-"V" icon everywhere, in-app branding to match, a changelog that tells Vorno's own story — delivered through the auto-update pipeline that v0.11.2 built.
July 14, 2026
First Signed Vorno Release
The first fully signed, notarized, and auto-updating Vorno release — the fork now ships like a real product.
Vorno is a fork of an open-source project and shares its history up to 0.11.1; version numbering diverged at 0.11.2, which is the first release built, signed, and published as Vorno. There are no Vorno builds below that version, so earlier release notes are not reproduced here — they belong to the upstream project and are available in the repository.
