Picobot [0.7.0] - 2026-10-25

[0.7.0] - 2026-10-25

Added

• /riassumi <link> [instructions] summarizes a web page (articles and blogs) on Telegram, CLI and API
  (POST /v1/summarize with a url field instead of file). Only the main article text is kept, with no menus
  or footer. The page goes through the same summary workflow as documents and is recorded in the session for
  follow-up questions.
• Links to localhost, private networks and cloud metadata are refused, also after a redirect. Without a proxy,
  the IP the connection actually reaches is checked too. Behind a proxy (HTTPS_PROXY, HTTP_PROXY,
  ALL_PROXY), the proxy must deny private destinations itself.
• MCP servers: ${NAME} placeholders in config/mcp_config.json, filled from .env or the environment, so
  secrets stay out of the JSON. A server with an undefined variable is skipped with a warning that names the
  variable, never the value.
• MCP servers: headers for remote servers (for example an API key).
• Manual acceptance checklist in English (docs/en/manual-qa.md).

Changed

• The Italian manual acceptance checklist moved from docs/manual-qa.md to docs/it/manual-qa.md.
• New dependencies: trafilatura (article extraction) and python-dotenv (declared explicitly).

Fixed

• Code sandbox on Windows: generated Node and Python code now gets SYSTEMROOT. Without it Node aborted at
  startup and Python could not import asyncio.
• The test suite runs on Windows: no more hang in the Word end-to-end test when Node is installed. Tests that
  need POSIX shells or symlinks are skipped there.
• Docker build from a Windows checkout: .gitattributes keeps deps/ and *.sh files with LF line endings, so
  deps/setup.sh no longer fails with set: pipefail: invalid option name.

[0.6.0] - 2026-10-23

Added

• Voice messages on Telegram: voice notes and audio files are transcribed, echoed back to the user and handled
  like a written message.
• Optional stt service (compose profile stt): faster-whisper behind an OpenAI-compatible endpoint, with size
  and duration limits, one transcription at a time, a non-root image and a benchmark script.
• STT client and settings (STT_URL, STT_TIMEOUT_S, MAX_VOICE_S).
• CI/CD pipeline: tests, Docker build check and image publishing to GHCR, also for the picobot-stt image.
• Bilingual documentation (English and Italian) in docs/en and docs/it, and the MIT license.

Fixed

• stt: the audio duration is read from the file header before decoding; dependencies are locked.
• Docker: the final uv sync no longer removes the libraries installed from deps/pip.txt.

[0.5.0] - 2026-10-23

Added

• Router with two teams: SimpleTeam (quotes, searches, scripts) and ComplexTeam (documents, complex tasks), with
  the Writer as the member that produces files.
• Explicit commands /simple, /complex and /riassumi, and the target field in the API.
• Uploaded documents go through the router, which decides between a summary and another task.
• Per-user profile and private entity memory (projects, people); /memory and /forget cover memories,
  profile and entities.
• save_text_file tool; documents up to 100,000 characters are summarized in a single call.

Fixed

• Agno telemetry is off by default.
• Scripts, HTML and JSON files can be delivered to the user.

[0.4.0] - 2026-10-23

Added

• Skills: skill registry, skills available to the ComplexTeam, hot reload and the /skills command.
• picobot skills list|add|remove|validate|deps admin CLI, with safe installation from a folder, zip or git.
• MCP servers shared by the ComplexTeam, with an enabled flag per server.
• Word, PowerPoint and Excel files: run_node, a cap on code runs per request and unique script names.
• File delivery with checks (deliver_file) on Telegram, CLI and API (GET /v1/files/{id}, kept for 24 hours).
• Extension points for system, Python and Node dependencies (deps/) and a hardened Docker image.

Fixed

• The NODE_PATH check in the Dockerfile really stops the build.
• Skill zip size is checked before extraction.
