# Zenflow Changelog

> Product updates for Zenflow — the desktop app for multi-agent task orchestration

<Update label="May 2026" description="Usage-based billing, auto-approve mode, window persistence, Pipedream, performance and stability">
  ## Polish, Stability, and Billing

  ### Usage-Based Billing in Zenflow

  Zenflow now supports **usage-based billing** end-to-end — onboarding skips sign-in when already authenticated, with a robust UBB API key fallback.

  ### Claude Code Auto-Approve Mode

  Run Claude Code without pausing on every action — hands-free agent execution on trusted workflows.

  ### Cross-Model Workflows Refresh

  The cross-model pipeline is now called **Multi-model**, with a new icon and an upgraded review panel for clearer multi-model results.

  ### Window State Persistence

  Zenflow Desktop now remembers **window size and position** across restarts. Keyboard shortcuts to close and re-open tabs added.

  ### Engineering Manager Dashboard Automation

  A new **Engineering Manager Dashboard** automation template ships out of the box.

  ### Pipedream Integration

  Connect to hundreds of third-party services through the new **Pipedream integration**.

  ### Productivity Tweaks

  * **Plain-text paste** (`Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+V`) in the prompt editor
  * **Reveal in Folder** action in the file editor
  * **Operation ID display** for ZenCLI
  * **File links** in agent responses are now clickable
  * **Slack skill**: thread read, channel read, message shortcut context, message send

  ### Performance and Reliability

  * **Eliminated message-sending delay** so chat feels instant
  * Fixed a crash on large command output
  * **Updates apply reliably** — fallback when the installer silently fails
  * **CLI messages like "usage limit reached"** now surface in the UI instead of being hidden
  * **Retry with the agent** on Git hook commit errors
  * **No more duplicate chats** when sending messages quickly
</Update>

<Update label="April 2026" description="Zenflow 2.0, cross-model workflows, integrations overhaul, automations, rich text editing">
  ## Zenflow 2.0

  ### Code and Work Task Types

  A new dual-mode task system — **Code tasks** for development workflows with full git integration, and **Work tasks** for research, writing, and non-code productivity. Redesigned task creation with inline rename, keyboard shortcuts, and improved layout.

  ### Automations

  Automations (formerly Flows) got a major upgrade — in-task automations tab, automation templates, scheduled execution with improved reliability, confirmation cards with auto-run support, and real-time UI updates.

  ### Cross-Model Workflows

  Chain different AI models together in a single task — use one model for planning and another for implementation, or get diverse perspectives on the same problem.

  ### Integrations Overhaul

  Native integrations with **Slack**, **Discord**, **HubSpot**, **Google Drive**, **Gmail**, **Jira**, **Linear**, **Notion**, **Amplitude**, **Miro**, and **Pipedream**. Skill discovery via `/` command. Integration request feedback form.

  ### Messenger Assistant

  Interact with Zenflow from Slack and Discord — unified assistant thread, configurable bot names, and message shortcut context for quick task creation.

  ### Rich Text Editing

  Full rich text editing in task descriptions and chat — bold, links, lists, and proper markdown formatting.

  ### Claude Code Improvements

  **Claude Opus 4.7** support, **auto permission mode**, configurable reasoning effort, and Codex support.

  ### Image Generation

  Agents can generate images and see results rendered directly in the Zenflow UI.

  ### Clone from GitHub

  Start new projects by cloning directly from GitHub in the project creation dialog.

  ### Improvements

  * File link parsing in agent responses — clickable links to files
  * Browser console messages available as a debugging tool
  * Onboarding redesign with animated chip panel
  * Active terminal count badge and tab count badges
  * Correct PR status (Merged/Closed) in Git panel

<Update label="March 2026" description="Built-in browser, task flows, redesigned layout, saved prompts, Mermaid diagrams">
  ### Built-in Browser

  Preview web apps, reference UI elements, and iterate on them directly with the agent. Browser MCP tools for automation. Viewport presets for Responsive, Mobile, Tablet, Desktop, and Wide.

  ### Task Flows

  Autonomous goal-driven agents that keep working toward a goal on a schedule — shepherd a PR through review, watch CI and fix failures, keep a branch rebased.

  ### Saved Prompts

  Create reusable prompt shortcuts and insert them anywhere by typing `/`.

  ### Document Preview

  Preview PDF, DOCX, XLSX, CSV, and PPTX files directly in a tab. HTML files open in the built-in browser.
