# Release Notes

## v0.1.3

October 9, 2026

### New features

* Add remote Step Plan sign-in. On SSH, remote servers, or containers, `step login --no-browser` returns a full authorization link that you can open in a browser on this or another device. Sign-in no longer requires a local callback port.
* Add the optional `then_run` parameter to `edit_file` and `write_file`. After an edit succeeds, the verification command runs immediately and returns its result, so a separate verification call is no longer needed.
* Add the optional `--completion-check git-committed` option. In `-p` or JSON mode, it checks whether the changes in the current run are committed, whether uncommitted files remain, and whether a final answer was provided. When a condition is not met, the agent is reminded in the same session to finish the work, with up to two follow-up rounds by default. Combine it with `--completion-review` for a self-review; both share the same follow-up rounds.
* Add the `/ultracode` command to enable, disable, and check the status of multi-agent collaboration. The existing `/ultraloop` command still works and behaves the same.

### Improvements

* Store plan files outside the workspace with `STEP_CODING_AGENT_PLAN_DIR`. Plan files stay out of code commits and do not affect workspace status checks.

### Fixes

* Fix auto-discovery of existing skills. `~/.claude/skills`, `.claude/skills` in trusted projects, and `~/.stepcode/skills` now load without manual path configuration.
* `run_command` now uses a 120-second default timeout, adjustable with `timeout_ms`, which reduces stalls caused by commands that stop responding.
* Fix lingering child processes on Linux that left tasks waiting, and report commands terminated by a system signal as failures.
* Fix truncated command output losing the full log path or exit status. The exit code, timeout, or abort reason is preserved so the agent can read the full log and continue troubleshooting.
* Fix earlier history summaries being dropped after repeated context compaction, so long tasks keep using previously summarized work. Also fix summaries that exceeded the model output limit.
* Fix inconsistent welcome text and command entry points for Ultracode, missing help and command completion, and the enablement state not being visible at common terminal widths.

## v0.1.2

September 30, 2026

### New features

* Add `--non-interactive-denial continue`. In non-interactive runs, such as `-p` mode, a dangerous operation that requires approval is blocked and the reason is returned to the agent so it can attempt a safer approach and continue the task. The default remains `terminate`, which ends the task. Both policies enforce the existing permission restrictions.

### Improvements

* Add search to marketplace plugin lists and remove duplicate entries with the same name. Adding a marketplace in the interactive interface now shows progress, supports cancellation, and opens the plugin list on success.
* Show a preview of long tool results with a file path to the full text, reducing model context usage.
* Display only the most recent successful task plan update in a conversation, including when resuming a session.
* Improve Up Arrow history navigation for single-line input. Add `Ctrl+End` in fullscreen mode to return to the bottom and follow new output.

### Fixes

* Fix the thinking level being forced to the highest setting when starting or switching to a Step model.
* Fix skill scanning hangs and skill commands failing to recognize arguments entered on a new line.
* Fix loaded skill instructions being lost after built-in context compaction.
* Retry compaction after trimming older history when the summary request exceeds a limit.
* Fix skills and prompt commands from installed plugins not loading. Reload resources to make them available.
* Fix plugin MCP configuration recognition, server name recognition, and reuse of login authorization. Local MCP servers now start from the plugin directory by default.
* Fix incomplete loading of paginated MCP tool lists and search failing to find available MCP and extension tools loaded later. Tool lists update in response to server notifications.

## v0.1.1

September 24, 2026

### New features

* Automatically install the StepPage plugin on first launch. It stays uninstalled if the user removes it.

### Improvements

* Reduce redraws in the subagent task list to minimize flicker and improve readability.
* Add a post-installation prompt on macOS and Linux to guide users to run `step`.
* Update the English and Chinese READMEs with StepPage publishing instructions and demos.

### Fixes

* Fix Workflow and Ultraloop being unavailable in release installations. The workflow sandbox now uses QuickJS WebAssembly instead of `isolated-vm`.
* Fix unexpected exits and false timeouts in Workflow involving unawaited asynchronous tasks, long-running parallel tasks, and resource cleanup.
* Correct the billing route for Step Plan web search to use the subscription endpoint.
* Fix plugin diagnostics incorrectly reporting a missing `STEPFUN_API_KEY` for users who are already signed in.
