BrainPilot v0.1.3-beta.0

This beta is based directly on v0.1.2. It adds only a backend experiment switch for the built-in Auditor and does not include other features added after v0.1.2.

Auditor remains enabled by default. To disable it for newly created sessions:

BP_EXPERIMENT_DISABLE_PLUGINS=org.brainpilot.auditor brainpilot up

Install the beta with:

npm install -g @brainpilot/app@beta

BrainPilot v0.1.2

BrainPilot v0.1.2 improves tool lifecycle accuracy, managed MCP BYOK, npm knowledge-base setup, math rendering, onboarding, and Docker distribution.

Full Changelog: v0.1.0...v0.1.1

BrainPilot v0.1.0 — First Open-Source Release

BrainPilot v0.1.0 is our first open-source release. BrainPilot is a human-in-the-loop agentic research system for brain science that coordinates specialist agents, domain knowledge, scientific skills, and tools while preserving an inspectable research process through Graph of Trace.

Highlights

• Built for brain science research — supports literature review, hypothesis refinement, experiment design, data analysis, writing, and audit.
• PI Agent + specialist agents — a coordinating PI works with a librarian, experimentalist, engineer, writer, and auditor.
• Integrated domain knowledge and skills — brings together brain-science knowledge, methodological skills, analysis procedures, writing conventions, and tool interfaces.
• Auditor Agent for scientific reliability — reviews claims, evidence chains, citations, hallucination risks, omitted information, and unsupported reasoning.
• Graph of Trace — records task structure, agent actions, evidence flow, and decision points as an inspectable research process.
• Extensible research tool ecosystem — connects model providers, MCP tools, literature databases, code-execution environments, and custom research utilities.
• Fast local start — install the CLI and begin working in the browser without requiring Docker.

Install

npm install -g @brainpilot/app@0.1.0
brainpilot up

Node.js 22 or later is required. Configure a supported model provider API key, or use BP_MOCK=1 for a no-key smoke run.

Published artifacts

• npm — @brainpilot/app, @brainpilot/backend-core, @brainpilot/protocol, @brainpilot/runtime, @brainpilot/skills, and @brainpilot/web at version 0.1.0.
• Docker sandbox — ghcr.io/neuroaihub/brainpilot-sandbox:0.1.0.
• GPU sandbox — ghcr.io/neuroaihub/brainpilot-sandbox-gpu:0.1.0.

See the README for architecture, case studies, setup, providers, MCP integration, and deployment options.

v0.0.14

Release cut from main@7c57f87 (v0.0.13 → v0.0.14, +23 commits).

Highlights

Bug fixes

• #293 / #295 — raise DEFAULT_MAX_TOKENS 8k → 32k so long tool arguments (write / edit / send_message) no longer get silently truncated by the model's max-tokens cap. Fixes user-reported "expert write always retries" regression.
• #286 — tool_toggles now takes effect on newly-created sessions (drops the process-wide cache).
• #294 — empty skill_name in skill_search falls back gracefully.
• #290 — Live Demo bundle safety hardened.
• #291 — provider probing now correctly targets selected Responses / Azure protocol variants.
• #285 — CLI scaffold flakiness fix (gate the 600-file bundled-skill copy behind BP_SKIP_SKILL_COPY for test runs).

Features

• #292 — knowledge base settings build flag.
• #297 — per-session domain resource isolation.
• #289 — persistent library flattened under data/ (with safe migration).
• #299 — README research-cases docs.

Artifacts

• npm — @brainpilot/{protocol,skills,runtime,backend-core,web,app}@0.0.14 published to https://www.npmjs.com/org/brainpilot
• Docker — brainpilot-main / brainpilot-sandbox / brainpilot-sandbox-gpu pushed to ghcr.io/neuroaihub (+ mirror registries).

Install:

npm i -g @brainpilot/app@0.0.14
bnpt up

v0.0.13

v0.0.13

26 commits since v0.0.12 — patch release with UX polish, new fmriprep skill, per-tool toggles, and Azure Responses reasoning fix.

Features

• feat(skills): add fmriprep skill to 06_fMRI_Neuroimaging (#280)
• feat(runtime): cross-user read-only shared root (/shared, legacy parity) (#279)

• feat(demo): draggable + persisted panel dividers in Live Demo (#275)

Fixes

• fix(runtime): pin pi-coding-agent 0.80.3; Azure Responses store:false reasoning fix via postinstall (#265)
• fix(runtime): strip Azure Responses server item ids on stateless replay
• fix(web): ask_user takes over the composer to prevent session hangs (#272, #273)
• fix(demo): replay perf + cache correctness — concurrent packing, real node times, missing-file notice, abort, URL revocation, O(1) fold (#274)
• fix(backend-core): JSON error handler so runtime-start failures reach the UI
• fix(web): guard handleJson against non-JSON 2xx responses
