v1.1.0-beta

Released July 17, 2026

Chalie v1.1.0 adds threaded conversations, a live context-usage meter, real recurring schedules, and a unified email/calendar/contacts assistant — all on a steadier, more secure foundation.

Full docs and guides: https://chalie.ai/docs


⚠️ Breaking changes — read before upgrading

  • Recurring reminders and scheduled tasks are cleared on upgrade. Scheduling moved to real crontab-style rules, so recreate anything recurring afterward.
  • Saved Moments are removed. If you used Moments to save or star messages, that data won't carry over.
  • Code execution now runs JavaScript/TypeScript, not Python. Existing Python snippets will need rewriting. (The official installer sets up the new runtime for you automatically.)
  • You may be signed out once after upgrading, as part of a session-security improvement — just log back in.
  • Built something against Chalie's raw API? A handful of endpoints changed shape or moved. Check the docs above before upgrading; the bundled app isn't affected.

The app updates its own database schema automatically on first boot after upgrading — no manual steps needed.


Highlights

  • Threaded replies. Reply to any message to branch off a focused side conversation — with its own summary and full search across every thread.
  • Live context meter. The message box now shows how full the model's context window is, updating instantly as you chat.
  • Real recurring schedules. Reminders and scheduled tasks run on proper crontab-style rules now, with a running history of every time each one fired.
  • One assistant for mail, calendar, and contacts. Email, calendar, and contacts are now handled by a single delegate, and your calendar always reflects what's live on your calendar server.
  • Image search. Chalie can search the web for pictures and show them as a swipeable carousel — verified against your vision provider when one's configured, so results actually match what you asked for.
  • More images read correctly. A fix means text inside far more image and document formats is now picked up correctly.
  • Steadier long conversations. Chalie now catches itself if it starts repeating the same action instead of burning through your context, and long chats no longer slow down your browser tab.
  • Tighter security. Session data is stored more safely, logins are rate-limited, the realtime connection no longer exposes your login token in its address, and rendered content is sanitized more strictly.

Under the hood

The entire API was rewritten onto one consistent, fully-documented contract, core data storage was modernized, and a long list of smaller reliability fixes landed across memory, chat, and documents.
