Windshift v0.8.5

Windshift 0.8.5

Windshift 0.8.5 is a checkpoint release. You will have to upgrade to this release from earlier version before moving to versions 0.8.6 and later.

Agent Studio, safer upgrades, and easier work across workspaces

Agent Studio and AI

• Create and manage agents in one place: Agent Studio brings Standard and
  Coding agents into a shared catalog with guided creation, clear readiness,
  private testing, run history, and focused controls for instructions,
  knowledge, tools, access, and runner setup. Existing coding-agent bindings continue
  to work without conversion. (WI-846)
• Tailor the agent catalog: System administrators can create, edit, and
  disable agent templates while the built-in catalog remains available as the
  default. (WI-922)
• Better model support: Windshift now uses a provider-neutral
  inference contract via the Fantasy Library with native OpenAI Responses and Anthropic support across
  built-in and coding agents.

Workspaces and everyday work

• Move work between workspaces: Work items can move between workspaces
  through a preview that explains remapped and dropped fields and assigns a new
  destination key. Page trees can also move between workspaces from the UI,
  API, or ws CLI, and pages can be reparented directly in the tree.
  (WI-888–WI-890, WI-926)
• Better custom fields and boards: Checkbox fields now use real boolean
  values across work items, assets, portals, imports, CQL, and board cards.
  Board card configuration also separates system from custom fields and links
  straight to custom field administration, so it is clear where a field comes
  from and why it is not on a card yet. (WI-891, #156, #160)
• Predictable memory: Server and cache memory now share an
  explicit budget, expose clearer diagnostics, and stay bounded under the
  qualified 100-user, 100,000-item workload. (WI-870–WI-874, WI-895)

Upgrade and security

• 0.8.5 is the required upgrade bridge for older databases. Back up before
  upgrading. This release converts every supported legacy SQLite or PostgreSQL
  database to the canonical schema and records a durable checkpoint. Future
  releases will require that checkpoint, so installations older than 0.8.5
  must upgrade through 0.8.5 first. Item ranking now rebalances online with
  resumable, operator-visible recovery. (WI-930, WI-931, WI-981–WI-984, WI-995)

Issues fixed thanks to your reports

• Links pasted into a work item description or comment are kept instead of
  being stripped when the content is saved. (#166)
• Access tokens can be created with an expiration date again. Expiry is now a
  calendar date that ends at the start of the following day in your configured
  timezone. (#182)
• API tokens can grant the time tracking and test management scopes from the
  token dialog, so MCP clients no longer fail with a missing time:read or
  tests:read scope. (#172)
• Clearing notifications now sticks: cleared notifications no longer come back
  after a page refresh. (#190)
• Deleting a work item no longer shows an error toast for a deletion that
  actually succeeded. (#189)
• Diagrams can be deleted again from work items and pages. (#188)
• Saving workspace settings no longer resets the workspace avatar and other
  settings that were not part of the change. (#191)
• Quick add on the board offers only the workspaces and item types the
  collection and its configuration sets allow, instead of defaulting to an item
  type the workspace does not use. Changing the type on an existing item is
  still unrestricted and will follow. (#186)
• Card field visibility supports real drag-and-drop ordering. (#159)
• Model tests against OpenAI models that require the newer completion token
  parameter no longer fail with a max tokens error. (#163)
• WEBAUTHN_RP_ID and ALLOWED_HOSTS now accept a full https:// URL and keep only
  the parts WebAuthn needs, so a reverse-proxy setup configured that way no
  longer produces an invalid relying party ID. (#158)
