Release list
Mimetor 1.8.17
Mimetor for Linux (x86_64) — the same one-time purchase, no subscription.
Mimetor now runs natively on Linux as a single AppImage. No installation, no dependencies to resolve, no package manager: download the file, make it executable, run it.
Windows users stay on 1.8.15, which remains the current build for that platform.

./Mimetor-1.8.17-x86_64.AppImageRequirements: a 64-bit x86 distribution with glibc 2.35 or newer — Ubuntu 22.04 and later, Debian 12, Fedora 36+, and anything more recent. FUSE 2 is needed to mount the AppImage; most desktops already have it, and if yours does not, ./Mimetor-1.8.17-x86_64.AppImage --appimage-extract-and-run works without it.
📝 What's new
Mimetor on Linux
- The whole application ships as one AppImage that carries its own Python runtime and every dependency. The program is that single file; your data lives in
~/.local/share/Mimetor, and nothing is installed system-wide. - Cloud Brain — the part of Mimetor that drives a real ChatGPT or Qwen session in a real browser — works on Linux the same way it does on Windows.
Local models are no longer cut off while they load
- A conversation with a local model could die with a connection error after exactly three minutes. The connection was fine: Ollama was still reading the model off disk and working through the context, without having written a single word yet. With a large model that takes minutes, and Mimetor stopped waiting too early.
- The deeper cause affected the whole conversation, not just the first message. Ollama drops a model from memory after five idle minutes, so simply pausing to think meant the next message paid the full load again. Mimetor already kept its small embedding model resident for this reason; now it keeps the chat model — the slow one — resident too.
- If the wait does run out, you now read what happened and what to do about it — preload the model, pick a smaller one, or raise the limit — instead of a stack trace.
Browsers, found where Linux actually puts them
- Mimetor offered Chrome, Chromium, Brave, Edge, Opera and Vivaldi in its browser menu, but on Linux it only ever looked for classic system binaries. A browser installed through Flatpak or Snap — which is how most Linux desktops install them today — was simply invisible, so choosing it failed with an error that explained nothing.
- Mimetor now detects Flatpak and Snap installations alongside native ones and launches each through its own mechanism. Browsers you do not have installed are still listed, shown as unavailable, so the menu tells you what Mimetor supports instead of hiding it.
- A Flatpak browser runs inside a sandbox that cannot see your files by default. Mimetor grants access to its own data directory for that run only — attachments, downloads and the browser profile — without touching your system-wide Flatpak permissions.
- When a browser fails to start, the reason now reaches the interface instead of being flattened into a generic failure.
Screenshots on Linux
- The screen-capture ability added in 1.8.15 now works on Linux, with the same consent rules as on Windows: Mimetor asks before every capture unless you allow it for the session.
- On X11 it captures directly. Wayland deliberately forbids one application from photographing another, so there Mimetor uses
grim; ifgrimis not installed it says so and what to do about it, instead of failing silently.
Conversations stay inside your project
- When Mimetor created a chat inside a ChatGPT project, it sometimes composed a project URL for a conversation that ChatGPT had actually filed loose. The address looked right and the chat was not where it claimed to be.
- Mimetor now binds the conversation to the project through ChatGPT itself and verifies the binding afterwards, rather than trusting the address bar.
- Project numbering never reuses a number from a project that was removed, so two different projects can no longer end up with the same name.
Tools that say where they run
- Every tool now declares which operating systems it supports, so a tool that only exists on Windows is not offered on Linux and then fails when used.
⚠️ Known limitation
Sending file attachments to the provider does not work yet in this release. Receiving them does.

📝 What's new in 1.8.15
Screenshots, always with your permission
- Mimetor can now look at the screen when reading the page is no longer enough: a browser that will not respond to its own content, a desktop window with no text to extract, a layout that only makes sense visually. That ability existed only inside the web extension, so when a page got stuck the agent kept retrying variations of the action that had already failed instead of looking.
- It never captures without asking. The request says what would be captured, why, and — when the chat is answered by a bridge — which provider the image would travel to, because an image that leaves your computer must never do so as a side effect you discover afterwards.
- Three modes, because the right answer is not the same for everyone: ask every time, which is the default; allow for the whole session, for work that needs many; or never capture the full desktop, only the window in use. And a separate line you can draw: that no screenshot ever leaves the computer, which overrides any permission granted for convenience.
The local model, available in any chat
- The chat selector now always offers "Local model" alongside whichever bridges you have active. Working without a bridge previously meant changing the application's general configuration.
- Choosing it is a decision for that one chat: it does not touch your saved bridge or your licence. Going back to the bridge afterwards asks nothing new either.
Memory is no longer lost to a slow start
- A "memory disabled for this chat" warning could appear with nothing actually broken. The model that turns text into memory is unloaded after a few idle minutes, and if the machine was busy with a large model when it was needed again, the load queued behind it and the wait ran out. A single slow start cost the whole chat its memory.
- Mimetor now tells a busy service apart from a broken one. The first is retried on the next message; the second still disables memory immediately, and a service that never answers stops costing every message the full wait.
- It also keeps the memory model loaded for as long as the conversation lasts. It takes a few hundred megabytes against the chat model's gigabytes, so holding it costs little and removes the cold start entirely.
The browser explains why it refused
- When the browser's safety policy blocked an action — typing into a password field, submitting a form, clicking something irreversible — the reason only reached the model. On screen it looked as though the browser had simply stopped working.
- The refusal now appears in the chat with the specific rule behind it. There is also a trial mode that reports what a rule would have prevented without preventing it, so a rule can be judged against real work before it starts blocking.

📝 What's new in 1.8.14
The chosen browser is used outside the wizard too
- Picking a browser worked for "Launch Browser" and then everything went back to Chrome: the login check and every chat turn. The choice was stored in a field the runtime never reads — the shipped config carries a selection block whose empty value takes precedence, handing the decision back to the automatic order, which begins with Chrome. The choice is now written to the field the runtime actually reads, and the wizard still lists every installed browser.
- Resolving the browser in use also scanned all the others, so a running Chrome was adopted whenever the chosen browser had no session of its own yet. With a choice on record, only that browser counts.

📝 What's new in 1.8.13
The chosen browser is remembered for the whole session
- The wizard opened the browser you picked, but typing in the chat or pressing "Verify Login" brought Chrome back. Your choice lived only inside the request that carried it: the ChatGPT and Gemini bridges applied it to the in-memory config and dropped it on the way out, so every later action rebuilt the session from the stored config and found the default browser there. "Verify Login" never receives a browser at all, so it depended entirely on that stored value.
- Both bridges now save your preference, as Qwen and GLM already did. The wizard's dropdown still lists every available browser.

📝 What's new in 1.8.12
The setup wizard opens the browser you pick
- Choosing a browser under "Launch Browser" always opened Chrome. The Qwen and Gemini bridges stored the choice but left the selection in automatic mode, where a browser that fails to start falls through to the next candidate — and that list begins with Chrome. All four bridges now pin the requested browser and switch that fallback off.
- Pressing the button also reused whichever browser was already open, whatever you had chosen. That reuse exists to protect a signed-in session, and the composer sends the stored browser on every click, so the endpoint had no way to tell a routine click from a deliberate change. The wizard now supplies that signal: it marks a change only when you actually work the selector, and only then is the browser replaced. Pressing the button without touching the selector still keeps your session intact.

📝 What's new in 1.8.11
Your permission before the project documentation is shared
- Pressing "Run Setup" used to upload five context documents to the provider's project without asking. One of them describes your machine: operating system, hardware, folder structure and location. A consent dialog now opens first, with a switch per document, an explanation of what each one contains, and an agreement checkbox that enables the continue button.
- The permission is effective, not informational: whatever you leave switched off is never sent to the provider, never enters the sync identity, and is never reported as shared. On the Qwen bridge a document you withdraw is also removed from the project on the next sync.
- Applies to the ChatGPT and Qwen bridges, which are the ones that use that set of documents.
Files are built with code instead of through a web office suite
- Asked for a spreadsheet, the agent opened Excel on the web and tried to type into its cells. Those suites paint the sheet onto a canvas, so there is no cell to click and no field to type into: the browser spent its whole turn and produced nothing, which made the extension look broken.
- It was not. The routing rule was missing: the browser reads the web, and the file is written with code. Mimetor now builds documents with the libraries it already ships — Excel, Word, PowerPoint, PDF and tabular data — and, when a task needs both, it fetches the data by browsing and builds the file locally.

Cloud Brain interface in the user's language
- With the interface set to English, the Cloud Brain chat status lines ("Intent compiled", "Running local action", "Action finished", etc.) still appeared in Spanish. They now follow the interface language, English or Spanish, resolved through the application's translation system with Spanish as the fallback.
- The provider's reasoning could come out in a different language from the request. The Cloud Brain role now tells the model to reason and reply in the same language as the user. Code, paths, identifiers, and internal control blocks are never translated.

Goal-driven tasks and project context for the bridges
- Fixed the error that made any task with an active goal fail with "access denied." The goal's workspace fell outside the area authorized for the file tools, so the agent could not write into its own workspace. Now only the active goal's folder is authorized, without opening access to any other path.
- The context documents uploaded to the provider project carry real information again. On the Qwen bridge, the system-context documents (machine, hardware, folder structure) and the reference library (tools, best practices, errors and fixes) were being uploaded empty. Both bridges now use the same set of documents, and setup stops with a clear error if that context ever comes through empty, instead of silently uploading hollow documents.
