Argos Desktop (recommended): pick the installer for your platform.
- Windows:
argos-0.6.0-windows-x64.exe/argos-0.6.0-windows-arm64.exe - macOS (Apple Silicon):
argos-0.6.0-mac-arm64.dmg— unsigned build; right-click → Open on first launch - Linux:
argos-0.6.0-linux-x86_64.AppImage/argos-0.6.0-linux-x64.tar.gz
Argos Server (advanced/headless): run Argos on a remote machine with the matching argos-daemon-<os>-<arch> binary (SHA-256 checksums provided alongside each binary). Do not download the standalone daemon for local desktop use. See the remote-machine guide for install, pairing, and service setup (argos-daemon update keeps a server current). Desktop ↔ Server pairing uses protocol version 1; keep both sides on the same release to stay protocol-compatible.
v0.6.0 (2026-09-19)
Managed toolchains
- The daemon now manages Node and uv installs: pinned, SHA-256-verified downloads with atomic activation and rollback, plus a new Toolchains settings page (per-tool source, install/repair/cancel/revert, custom path)
- ACP agents and MCP stdio servers resolve npx/npm/node/uvx through the managed toolchain service (bin dirs prepended to the spawn PATH), so headless machines no longer depend on what happens to be on PATH
Agents (ACP)
- Terminal authentication for agents that require login: sign in from a dedicated dialog with an embedded terminal, retry after failures, and resume the conversation once authenticated (agents like MiniMax Code could previously never offer their login flow)
- Uninstalling or disabling a registry agent no longer dead-ends: sessions settle first (active turns cancelled, queued inputs handled) and conversations can be moved to another agent or deleted via the transfer dialog
Reliability
- Standalone Argos Server binaries (and the daemon bundled in installers) no longer crash at startup on machines other than the build host — a
pdf-parse-newresolution defect that shipped broken in v0.5.0 - Per-session pending-input queue limit raised from 5 to 10, so more messages can be lined up during long agent turns
- Concurrent model discovery is coalesced per provider (keyed on provider settings), and Ollama tag/ps lookups share one request instead of fanning out per caller
- Failed requests release their fetch response bodies across daemon error paths instead of leaking connections
Thread sidebar (experiment)
- Loads older sessions on scroll, clearable search with a no-results state, and a collapsed rail mode with an attention indicator
- Keyboard navigation and Alt/Cmd+1..9 shortcut badges now target the rows actually rendered; the open session is never hidden by snooze
- Performance work: per-field selectors, memoized rows, and the per-second store tick removed
Housekeeping
- Components and stores migrated from
useStoretouseSelector - Added
fetch:acp-registryscript to refresh the bundled ACP agent registry
