Fabric v0.21.0 (2026.7.16)

Fabric 0.21.0 — Agent Live View

Fabric Desktop can now show Browser and Computer Use activity beside the conversation, then move that same session into a resizable, always-on-top picture-in-picture window.

Browser — docked	Browser — picture-in-picture

Computer Use — docked	Computer Use — picture-in-picture

How to use it

1. Start Fabric Desktop and ask the agent to use Browser or Computer Use.
2. Agent Live View opens automatically when the first visual action starts.
3. Use Pop out picture-in-picture to keep the view above other windows.
4. Use Pause visual updates to freeze only the preview—the agent keeps working.
5. Use Return to side panel to dock the same session again without restarting it.

See the complete Browser Live View guide and Computer Use Live View guide.

Highlights

• Browser Live View uses a dedicated authenticated visual connection on compatible local CDP sessions. It pulls one bounded frame at a time, starts at most two captures per second per session, and yields to agent browser actions.
• Computer Use reuses at most one bounded screenshot already returned by an action instead of creating another capture loop.
• Live View adds no model tool, tool schema, prompt text, context tokens, or model calls.
• Background-session activity no longer opens the active chat's Live View rail.
• Finder and Dock launches can now discover user-local cua-driver installations.
• The optional MCP SDK is raised to 1.28.1 for fixes covering CVE-2026-52869, CVE-2026-52870, and CVE-2026-59950.
• Documentation contracts now require the Desktop, Browser, and Computer Use guides to evolve with their load-bearing code paths.

Fabric v0.19.0 (2026.7.14)

Fabric 0.19.0 — Woven Operations

Fabric 0.19.0 introduces the Woven Operations product experience: an original, white-label enterprise workspace for coordinating agents, durable work, evidence, approvals, memory, and administration.

Highlights

• Added a canonical Fabric design-system package with semantic light/dark tokens and deterministic brand assets for web, desktop, installer, TUI, ACP, favicon, and mobile/PWA surfaces.
• Added the Workspace and Admin information architecture, including the operational Home screen, responsive three-panel Chat, explicit screen-state primitives, and compatibility routes for existing dashboard and plugin links.
• Reworked the dashboard into Fabric's Woven Operations visual language: warm neutral canvases, restrained Fabric violet, structural thread/bracket motifs, accessible system typography, and a neutral navigation rail.
• Preserved the persistent Chat PTY across ordinary navigation while supporting explicit fresh-conversation intent.
• Reframed Integrations as an operational ledger and retained the latest Work Board controls inside Chat.
• Reduced the HTML-referenced initial JavaScript payload by replacing an inherited heavy badge dependency with a Fabric-owned primitive and deferring non-English locale packs.
• Added the Workspace/Admin guide, rewrote the dashboard documentation, and refreshed website discovery surfaces and product screenshots.

Fixes and release hardening

• Fixed modal focus restoration, nested scroll locking, compact Chat sheets, responsive navigation semantics, and loading/empty/error-state behavior.
• Fixed release-version synchronization across Python, ACP, desktop, npm workspace metadata, and uv.lock.
• Fixed PWA icon/manifest coverage and preserved query/hash state across canonical Work and legacy route redirects.
• Hardened publication so wheel and source archives are built and validated before any tag is created or pushed.

Removed

• Removed unused legacy display fonts and inherited dashboard styling paths that made Fabric resemble the upstream Hermes interface.

Artifacts

This release includes validated Python wheel and source distributions. Unsigned desktop packages were independently built on macOS arm64, Linux x64, and Windows x64 during PR verification.

External ACP Registry submission follows publication of fabric-agent==0.19.0 through Fabric's PyPI publisher.
