Release notes

OpenWork v0.18.40

Portable Agent Plugins arrive and desktop sessions run calmer

  • OpenWork can now import and run portable Agent Plugins, bringing Anthropic-compatible plugin packs into the desktop app.
  • Automations can be pinned to a specific workspace, and remote-session commands now arrive in native local sessions on your desktop.
  • Fixed request storms and reload loops across Settings, the Library, the composer, and desktop policies, so long sessions stay fast.
  • Gmail replies support collapsible quoting and attachments, and OpenWork Cloud members get complimentary OpenWork Web access.
  • Strengthened sign-in and access security and made the desktop recover cleanly from socket and renderer crashes.
