winget install --id AIDotNet.OpenCoworkAbout OpenCoWork
Traditional LLM interfaces are often "environment-isolated islands." Developers spend 50% of their time copy-pasting code, terminal logs, and file contents between the chat and their IDE. OpenCowork solves this by providing: - Local Agency: Agents can directly read/write files and execute shell commands with your permission. - Context Awareness: No more manual context feeding. Agents explore your codebase and logs autonomously. - Task Orchestration: Complex tasks (like "Refactor this module and update tests") are b...
What's new in 1.3.3
Added - Added an SQLite-backed Native Worker Job runtime with idempotent submission, status/result queries, cancellation and command APIs, bounded concurrency, lane-aware scheduling, and durable event storage. - Added separate Control and Event IPC transports for the desktop app and CLI, with independent Event reconnection plus acknowledgement and replay of unconsumed agent-stream envelopes. - Added CLI workspace-file references through @ search, including a structured reference bar, prompt-history and rewind restoration, workspace-bound path validation, and bounded text-context injection. - Added a live CLI turn-status row for requesting, thinking, responding, and tool-use phases, showing elapsed time, transfer direction, token estimates, reasoning effort, and animated activity text. - Added compact CLI diffs for successful Edit tool calls, including file names, addition/deletion totals, contextual lines, and truncation for large replacements. - Added masked terminal provider setup through cowork config, /provider, and /config, with common quick presets, custom compatible endpoints, and atomic writes to the provider store shared with the desktop app. Changed - Bumped the Native Worker protocol to version 2 and extended route discovery with execution mode, result mode, and lane-policy descriptors so hosts can dispatch eligible methods through the durable Job runtime. - Changed Job wait semantics so a foreground timeout leaves committed work queued or running for later status checks, while an explicit abort issues a best-effort cancellation even when it races Job submission....
