Praex CLI v0.1.40

Released 2026-10-28.

Changes

• Out of memory, the system now stops the command Praex ran instead of Praex itself, so a huge build no longer ends your session
• When a command is killed, Praex says it probably ran out of memory and retries with fewer parallel jobs

Praex CLI v0.1.39

Released 2026-10-28.

Changes

• Fixed: when Praex runs in a subfolder of a git repo, editing an existing file no longer drops that step from the session's change list and undo.

Praex CLI v0.1.38

Released 2026-10-28.

Changes

• Plan mode is on: press Tab to plan, Praex writes the plan to .praex/plans and asks before it starts building. Plan mode now holds in auto mode too.
• Background subagents are on: Praex can start a research subagent in the background and keep working; the result comes back when it is done.
• New /browser command: connect your own Chrome (with the Playwright Extension) or a separate browser window, so Praex can open pages, click and take screenshots.
• Turning on LSP ("lsp": true) now also gives Praex the code navigation tool (go to definition, find references).

Praex CLI v0.1.37

Released 2026-10-28.

Changes

• Shell commands can run in the background: Praex can start a dev server, a watcher or a long build and keep working.
• Praex reads the background command's log without asking, and is told when the command ends on its own.
• Background commands still running when Praex exits are stopped.

Praex CLI v0.1.35

Released 2026-10-27.

Praex CLI v0.1.33

Released 2026-10-27.

Changes

• Live updates keep working when another device, such as your phone through Remote Control, removes messages from a session this window has not loaded
• praex run's end-of-turn check also counts files written by commands like sed -i, tree -o and sort -o
• OpenRouter, Vercel, Kilo, ZenMux and LLM Gateway now see requests from Praex under the name Praex
• Security: error text on the local sign-in page for provider logins is escaped
• MCP SDK 1.32.1, with its session recovery fix
• The local server sends uncompressed responses to clients that refuse compression

Praex CLI v0.1.32

Released 2026-10-24.

Changes

• The agent finishes more tasks: when a step only says what it will do next, or writes a tool call as plain text, it is asked to carry on instead of stopping
• praex run checks its work once at the end of a turn that changed files, against your original request
• Auto mode asks before more destructive commands: commands inside bash -c, eval and $(...), find -delete, xargs rm -r, git push --delete, git branch -D, git checkout -- and git restore, shred, and rm of files outside the project
• Manual mode: input redirects, >&file, tree -o and file-reading flags no longer run without asking
• Fixed: praex could exit with an error in a folder without a .git
• Fixed: a long session could lose its history when the summary came back empty
