v0.6.6

Changelog

v0.6.6 (2026-07-23)

Fixed bugs:

• describe_app/invoke summarize a matplotlib Figure output as {"type":"Figure","repr":...} — collides with the Plotly {"type":"Figure","n_traces",...} shape (_summarize_for_history has no matplotlib branch) #167
• MCP drive tools leak a raw Python TypeError (exposing enable\_mcp.\<locals\>...) when a required arg is omitted, instead of the structured {"ok": false, "error": ...} contract #165
• Agent invoke()/set_inputs output never renders in the live browser until the first human Run (.fd-not-run is cleared only by submit\_inputs.n\_clicks) #164
• describe_app() reports a dict-default input as type: "object", but the MultiSelect it becomes only accepts (and produces) an array #162

Merged pull requests:

• chore(release): 0.6.6 #175
• fix: render output for no-input callbacks (update_live apps never gate) #174
• fix(mcp): summarize matplotlib outputs as images, not a colliding Figure (#167) #168
• fix(mcp): agent output visibility, structured tool errors, MultiSelect type (#164, #165, #162) #166

v0.6.5 (2026-07-16)

Fixed bugs:

• describe_app() reports outputs: [] for every DynamicDash app — the #152 output contract skips DynamicDash (reads outputs\_with\_ids, but DynamicDash stores \_outputs\_with\_ids) #160
• describe_app() still reports tag "Text" for a str-with-list-default dropdown (Select) — #147 fix missed the sibling branch; int/float/bool/Literal/date also report hint-name tags not in list_component_types() #158

Merged pull requests:

• feat: run_app reports its result to the auto-agent (0.6.5, RFC #135) #163

v0.6.4 (2026-07-15)

Implemented enhancements:

• Feature: give agents an OUTPUT contract — describe\_app\(\) reports only inputs, so a headless agent can't discover an app's outputs without side-effectingly calling invoke\(\) #152

Fixed bugs:

• Tuple\[int, str\] / tuple\[int, str\] return hints silently yield ONE output and drop extra return values (only bare -\> \(int, str\) works) #156
• All FastDash / @fastdash instances share ONE mutable-default run_kwargs dict — constructing a second app silently rewrites the first's port (and any run_kwargs), so app.run() binds the wrong port #153
• PasswordInput values leak over the no-auth MCP (describe_app / set_input / get_invocation) — the chat surface redacts secrets, the MCP surface does not #151
• MCP value validation is type-blind: a string value slips past a Slider's min/max (bypassing the #120 guard) and scalar int/number/bool inputs accept any type — values the UI can't emit reach the callback #150
• MCP no-auth exposure warning guards the defunct mcp\_host (a no-op) and is silent on the real bind knob run\_kwargs\["host"\]=0.0.0.0 — false positive + false negative #149
• describe_app() reports tag: "Text" for a ColorInput and a Textarea — a headless agent can't discover a color picker / textarea from the contract (all str widgets collapse to one tag) #147
• DynamicDash agent-built forms (set_form) skip ALL MCP input validation — unknown ids, out-of-options, and out-of-range slider values are silently accepted (static apps reject them) #144

Merged pull requests:

• fix: finish the agent contract's widget discoverability (0.6.4) #161

v0.6.3 (2026-07-13)

Fixed bugs:

• Root CHANGELOG.md is stale at 0.4.1 — missing 0.5.0/0.5.1/0.5.2 (drifted from docs/history.md) #140

Merged pull requests:

• fix: make the agent contract trustworthy (0.6.3) #157
• docs: changelog + docs currency pass through 0.6.2 #155

Merged pull requests:

• feat(chat): collapsible input accordion for chat sidebars (0.6.2) #154

v0.6.1 (2026-07-07)

Implemented enhancements:

• RFC: one chat= argument — unified agent API, app toolkit (read / drive / layout / content / exec), placement inference, HITL exec #145

Merged pull requests:

• feat: typed agent events by default — langstage extractors + chat renderers (0.6.1) #148

v0.6.0 (2026-07-07)

v0.5.3 (2026-07-05)

Merged pull requests:

• feat(chat): mode-aware, customizable empty-transcript placeholder (0.5.3) #141

v0.5.2 (2026-07-05)

Fixed bugs:

• Docs: the flagship MCP "drive it" examples don't run as written — invoke\({...}\) and set\_form\(\[...\]\) omit the inputs=/specs= wrapper the tools require #137
• describe_app() reports default: null for datetime.date / datetime.datetime inputs despite a real default — contract contradicts current_value and the UI #134
• describe_app() reports every Optional[T] input as type:"string" while the UI renders the real typed widget (Optional[int]→NumberInput) — agent↔human parity break #132
• describe_app() type field means two different things: JSON type for FastDash, component name for DynamicDash (contract inconsistency) #131

Merged pull requests:

• fix(chat): sidecar run_app renders outputs, not just inputs (0.5.2) #139

v0.5.1 (2026-07-04)

Implemented enhancements:

Merged pull requests:

• fix(mcp): describe_app contract consistency + date defaults (0.5.1) #138

v0.5.0 (2026-07-04)

Fixed bugs:

• describe_app() mis-reports Enum input defaults: plain enum.Enum → default: null; IntEnum default/options are ints but current_value is a string #126

Merged pull requests:

• Fast Dash 0.5.0 — chat mode, agent sidecar, and a UI refresh #136

v0.4.1 (2026-07-01)

• fix: report Enum input defaults consistently in describe_app (#126) #129

v0.4.0 (2026-06-30)

Fixed bugs:

• describe_app() omits a Slider's min/max/step for static FastDash apps (DynamicDash surfaces them), so an agent can't discover or stay within a slider's range #120
• dict/list-annotated inputs degrade to a Text box under from \_\_future\_\_ import annotations #119

Merged pull requests:

• Release 0.4.0 — UI/UX modernization + go.Figure render fix #128
• UI/UX modernization + go.Figure render fix (0.4.0) #127

v0.3.5 (2026-06-29)

• describe_app() leaks a raw depends\_on object repr as the input default, and never surfaces the dependent dropdown's options #116

Merged pull requests:

• Release 0.3.5 — Slider bounds (#120) + future-annotations inference (#119) #125
• fix: resolve string annotations so PEP 563 doesn't degrade inference (#119) #124

• docs: note describe_app reflects an agent-built DynamicDash form (0.3.2) #115

v0.3.3 (2026-06-27)

Fixed bugs:

• MCP: single-select dropdown (str with list default) seeds its value as the whole options list — describe\_app self-contradicts (type string, value a list) and invoke\(\) passes a list to a str param (≠ the browser, which is null) #110

Merged pull requests:

• Release 0.3.3 - dropdown seeding fix (#110) #114
• Release prep 0.3.3 (#110 dropdown seeding fix) #113

v0.3.2 (2026-06-26)

Fixed bugs:

• describe_app() doesn't reflect a DynamicDash form built by set_form — the agent-generated form is drivable but undiscoverable #106

Merged pull requests:

• Release 0.3.2 - describe_app DynamicDash form (#106) #109
• Release prep 0.3.2 (#106 describe_app DynamicDash form) #108
• Fix #106: describe_app reflects DynamicDash set_form contract #107

v0.3.1 (2026-06-25)

Fixed bugs:

• MCP: agent-facing tool schemas are generic untyped objects — type hints do NOT build the agent schemas, contradicting the docs #102
• MCP: an agent can't read back the inputs it set — dash://components/get\_dash\_component never reflect set\_input, contradicting the docs' "current values" #100
• backend="fastapi" never starts a server when launched the documented way (@fastdash/FastDash.run\(\) as a script) #99
