Ari v0.3.3
Ari 0.3.3 adds an in-app browser agents can drive, loads each agent's own skills and MCP, and makes queued follow-ups actually continue the same chat.
In-app browser
A visible browser inspector pane, shared with the agent.
- Open it from the pane. The page is a sandboxed Chromium guest on its own partition. Only http(s) and
about:blankload. Redirects tofile:or an OS protocol are cancelled, same as a direct navigation. - Agents reach it through a loopback MCP server. HTTP is sent only when the agent advertises
mcpCapabilities.http. Otherwise Ari sends the stdio proxy. Never both. - Pick an element on the page and the next message can refer to it.
Skills and MCP
- Claude, Codex, Grok, OpenCode, Pi, and Hermes keep their own skill and MCP loaders. Ari does not copy discovered disk MCP onto
session/new. - Ari Core hosts
~/.agents/skillsand<workspace>/.agents/skills. Project skills stay off until that workspace is trusted. - User stdio MCP servers from
mcp-servers.jsonmount beside the in-app browser.
Queue and steer
A message sent while a turn is running stays in the queue and runs after that turn, on every provider, the harness, and child chats.
- The composer shows a queue button next to Stop when the draft is non-empty.
- Steer is the action on a queued message. The harness inserts it before the next model round. Claude, Codex, and ACP inject it when they can. If they cannot, it stays queued.
- The follow-up resumes the same session, including Pi, Hermes, OpenCode, and Codex
exec.
Split panes and appearance
- Pane headers read
Project title - Session title. Unfiled sessions keep the session title alone. - Glass chrome is gone. Windows are opaque. Wallpaper compositing stays.
Reliability
- A silent model stream or ACP prompt is treated as stalled after 20 minutes, not 2 or 5, so a long think or a long shell command is not killed.
- The harness
bashtool defaults to 600 seconds and allows up to 1800.
Upgrade notes
Install over any 0.3.2 build. Existing sessions, splits, and settings load as before.
If you already have 0.3.2, the in-app update toast (or Advanced → Check for updates) will offer 0.3.3 once the installers finish building. You can also download the installer for your platform below.
