<Update label="May 25, 2026" tags={["v0.8.14"]}>

## Stable release

- **0.8.14 is the stable promotion of the 0.8.14 prerelease.** It keeps the upstream Pi sync, bundled workflow documentation refresh, and bundled subagent guidance updates from the prerelease.
- **Synced with upstream Pi patches.** Atomic's coding-agent fork is now aligned with upstream Pi patches since v0.75.4 and bundles Pi libraries at 0.75.5.
- **Bundled workflow docs are current.** The docs now describe Ralph's final PR-preparation phase, deep-research report artifacts, and newer workflow inspection/control actions such as `stages`, `stage`, `transcript`, `send`, `pause`, and `reload`. See [Workflows](/workflows).
- **Bundled subagent guidance is easier to find.** Atomic now documents how to use bundled subagents for delegation, background work, nested fanout boundaries, model fallbacks, and custom agent guardrails. See [Subagents](/subagents).

## Fixes

- Managed extension installs, git package ref reconciliation, async file tools, export HTML escaping, OpenCode session headers, OAuth device-code login, footer path abbreviation, clipboard native loading, and collapsed read output rendering received upstream fixes.
- The built-in header model label now refreshes when you change models, matching the footer below the chat box.

<Update label="May 21, 2026" tags={["v0.8.13"]}>

## Stable release

- **0.8.13 is the stable promotion of the 0.8.13 prerelease.** It keeps the workflow discovery and async subagent widget fixes from the prerelease while updating Atomic agent guidance.

## Fixes

- **Packaged workflow discovery loads reliably.** Package-authored workflow resources load through `jiti`, so SDK imports such as `@bastani/workflows` resolve consistently from the Bun-packaged binary. See [Workflows](/workflows).
- **Workflow diagnostics are preserved.** Invalid default exports and supported SDK import diagnostics remain visible when workflows are discovered from packaged resources.
- **Async subagent widget spacing is stable.** Background subagent widgets preserve spacing before the prompt box. See [Subagents](/subagents).

</Update>

<Update label="May 20, 2026" tags={["v0.8.12"]}>

## New features

- **Configurable HTTP idle timeout.** Tune how long Atomic keeps idle HTTP connections open, with presets from 30 seconds through 30 minutes and an option to disable the timeout. See [Settings](/settings).
- **Workflow documentation and navigation.** Atomic added the Workflows docs page so users can discover built-in workflows, authoring patterns, package setup, and run control from the docs site. See [Workflows](/workflows).

## Updates

- **Model reasoning level in the system prompt.** Atomic now includes the active model's reasoning level in generated system prompts and project context markup. See [Models](/models).
- **Runtime and extension compatibility.** Internal runtime, tool, TUI, tests, and extension example imports moved to explicit `.ts` specifiers for better raw-TypeScript extension compatibility.
- **Atomic docs refresh.** Package usage, customization, workflows, and release guidance were refreshed for Atomic branding.

## Fixes

- **Better Windows self-update behavior.** Package-manager installs now handle native dependency cleanup, quarantine cases, and unavailable updates more clearly. See [Windows](/windows).
- **Smoother subagent rendering.** Live subagent result rendering, async render updates, transient child-error recovery, and live widget animations are more stable. See [Subagents](/subagents).
- **Workflow stages settle cleanly.** Completed stages detach from run-control tracking, and the empty workflow graph waiting state is centered. See [Workflows](/workflows).
- **Consistent duration display.** Elapsed times across bash, subagent, and workflow output are shown as whole seconds and never go negative.
