Everywhere v0.8.1

v0.8.1 - 2026-08-29

v0.8.1 is one of Everywhere's largest updates yet. From reusable prompts and built-in Office automation to smarter long conversations, safer tool controls, and a much smoother Chat Window, this release makes Everywhere a more capable and dependable everyday assistant.

✨ Features & 🚀 Improvements

• 🔥 Prompt Manager: Prompts are now reusable, first-class resources. Create and search prompts, build one quickly from guided choices, switch to advanced template editing, preview placeholders in real time, and share prompts across assistants. Existing custom-assistant prompts are migrated automatically.
• 🔥 Built-in Office Automation: Added the new OfficeCLI tool, allowing the assistant to create, read, inspect, and modify Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files without requiring Microsoft Office.
• 🔥 Smarter Long Conversations: Added a context-usage ring plus manual and automatic context compression, helping long-running conversations continue without unexpectedly reaching the model's context limit.
• Powerful Chat Search: Search chat history by title or message content, and find text inside the current conversation with highlighting and previous/next navigation.
• More Transparent Agent Activity: Reasoning, tool calls, subagents, elapsed time, completion state, and requests requiring your attention are now presented in a clearer and more detailed activity view.
• Flexible Tool Controls: Tool settings can now be configured globally or per assistant. Added custom approval choices, pre-approved file path globs, and optional approval bypass for trusted MCP servers.
• Stronger File Workflows: The File System tool can now read text-based PDFs and Skill resources, perform precise patch-based edits with apply_patch, and provide clearer diffs, search results, approvals, and error messages.
• Richer Chat Rendering: Expanded mathematical formula support with LaTeX/MathJax-style syntax, and improved the presentation and management of ToDo items.
• More Personalization: Added global font family and font size settings, alongside refreshed Prompt, Assistant, Tool, dialog, and settings interfaces.
• Smoother Chat Experience: Reworked message virtualization, scrolling, incremental history loading, and window lifecycle handling for better responsiveness in large conversations. The Windows Chat Window also receives refined custom rounded corners and shadows.
• Web & Core Improvements: Improved webpage extraction quality and reliability.
• Framework upgrade: upgraded the UI foundation to Avalonia 12, and introduced a more robust settings and migration engine.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fixed chat history sometimes not being saved in time and prevented generated chat titles from containing unexpected line breaks.
• Fixed assistant or model configuration fields being lost when switching between configurators.
• Fixed chat scrolling jumps, flickering, missing item spacing, unstable history switching, and several virtualization edge cases.
• Fixed the Main Window occasionally reopening with empty content, along with multiple title bar, Mica, tray menu, Light Theme, and window rendering issues across platforms.
• Fixed onboarding issues involving shortcut configuration and the newly configured custom assistant not being selected.
• Fixed subagent approval requests occasionally failing to reach the user and blocking execution.
• Fixed duplicated tool names, incorrect tool rules, complex tool schemas causing model API errors, and several serialization edge cases.
• Fixed web_extract occasionally opening an unwanted browser window or losing its connection when a page closed.
• Fixed cloud synchronization occasionally exceeding the supported content length.
• Resolved multiple memory leaks, deadlocks, lifetime issues, and error-handling problems to improve long-running stability.

• 更丰富的聊天渲染： 扩展了对 LaTeX/MathJax 风格数学公式的支持，并优化了待办事项的展示与管理体验。
• 更多个性化选项： 新增全局字体和字号设置，同时重新打磨了提示词、助手、工具、对话框与设置页面的界面和交互。
• 更流畅的聊天体验： 重构了消息虚拟化、滚动、聊天历史增量加载和窗口生命周期处理，大型对话也能保持流畅。Windows 聊天窗口还获得了更加精致的自定义圆角与阴影效果。
