Biorouter v1.85.4 Release Notes

Release Date: June 2026
Repository: github.com/BaranziniLab/biorouter

This is a feature-and-fix release. It adds the Agent Drafter built-in extension for authoring AI-agent-enabled artifacts, an ACP WebSocket transport, two new LLM providers (z.ai / GLM and Xiaomi MiMo), 24 new Auto Visualiser charts, and broader tree-sitter language support (C++, C, R, Julia, MATLAB). It also hardens the interactive CLI, the developer extension, and provider retries. No breaking changes — existing installs upgrade in place.

Downloads

Platform File Install
macOS (Apple Silicon) BioRouter-1.85.4-arm64.dmg Open the DMG and drag BioRouter.app to /Applications
macOS (Intel) BioRouter-1.85.4-x64.dmg Open the DMG and drag BioRouter.app to /Applications
Windows (x64) BioRouter-win32-x64-1.85.4.zip Unzip and run BioRouter.exe
Linux Ubuntu / Pop!_OS (x64) biorouter_1.85.4_amd64.deb sudo dpkg -i biorouter_1.85.4_amd64.deb
Linux Fedora / RHEL (x64) BioRouter-1.85.4-1.x86_64.rpm sudo rpm -i BioRouter-1.85.4-1.x86_64.rpm
Linux — CLI only Ubuntu / Debian (x64) biorouter-cli_1.85.4_amd64.deb sudo apt install ./biorouter-cli_1.85.4_amd64.deb
Linux — CLI only Fedora / RHEL (x64) biorouter-cli-1.85.4-1.x86_64.rpm sudo dnf install ./biorouter-cli-1.85.4-1.x86_64.rpm

The two CLI-only packages install just the headless binaries (biorouter + biorouterd) with no Electron/GUI payload — ideal for servers, HPC nodes, and containers. (Local models need glibc ≥ 2.35 — Debian 12+/Ubuntu 22.04+.)

What's New

Agent Drafter

A new built-in Agent Drafter MCP extension lets you author AI-agent-enabled artifacts directly in Biorouter. Drafts render with native Biorouter aesthetics, support agent-sizable and expandable previews, and run as working standalone agents. The accompanying ACP WebSocket transport improves multi-agent orchestration and fixes extension discoverability.

New LLM providers

z.ai (GLM) and Xiaomi MiMo are now selectable LLM providers. DeepSeek's deepseek-chat / deepseek-reasoner aliases are future-proofed against retirement.

Richer Auto Visualiser

The Auto Visualiser pipeline is hardened and gains 24 new visualizations spanning charts, scientific plots, relationship/hierarchy diagrams, Mermaid diagrams, and geo maps.

More languages in the analyze extension

tree-sitter is bumped to 0.26, adding C++, C, R, Julia, and MATLAB to the analyze extension's supported languages.

CLI / TUI overhaul

The interactive CLI gains wrapping input, a bottom-pinned input bar, live streaming, and richer rendering.

What's Fixed

  • CLI: --resume now falls back gracefully when a session can't be restored, and tool-call paths render readably.
  • Agent: the per-turn action-limit stop is now explicit and quantified.
  • Developer extension: adds git context, a verify/checkpoint Stop hook, and accepts file_path as an alias for the text editor's path argument.
  • Providers: a deeper retry budget for transient rate-limit (429) errors.
  • Auto Visualiser: accepts stringified data arguments, fixes map sizing, and drops the experimental note.

Upgrading

No action required beyond installing the new build for your platform from the table above. Settings, sessions, knowledge bases, and configured providers are preserved.
