Changed

Tighten visibility of internal request structs (#3184) (@houko)
Merge duplicate type definitions across crates (#3185) (@houko)
Rename Action enums to disambiguate from domain types (#3188) (@houko)
BREAKING: Split coding-provider API keys onto dedicated env vars — byteplus_coding now reads BYTEPLUS_CODING_API_KEY (was BYTEPLUS_API_KEY), volcengine_coding reads VOLCENGINE_CODING_API_KEY (was VOLCENGINE_API_KEY), zai_coding reads ZAI_CODING_API_KEY (was ZHIPU_API_KEY), zhipu_coding reads ZHIPU_CODING_API_KEY (was ZHIPU_API_KEY). Per-token siblings (byteplus, volcengine, zai, zhipu) keep their original env vars. Set the new env var if you use any _coding provider. (#3279) (@houko)
BREAKING: Register microsoft (GitHub Models / Azure AI Inference) as an explicit driver-registry entry with its own GITHUB_MODELS_TOKEN env var, distinct from github-copilot's GITHUB_TOKEN. Same PAT works for both, but the env vars are now separate so configuring one product no longer auto-activates the other in the model picker. Set GITHUB_MODELS_TOKEN if you use the microsoft provider. (#3281) (@houko)
BREAKING: Split zai from sharing ZHIPU_API_KEY with zhipu — zai (api.z.ai) now reads ZAI_API_KEY while zhipu (open.bigmodel.cn) keeps ZHIPU_API_KEY. Same Zhipu credential value works for both, but the env vars are now separate so configuring one no longer auto-activates the other. Set ZAI_API_KEY if you use the zai provider. (#3285) (@houko)

We just launched the new LibreFang website

涼風羽月 — Wed, 25 Mar 2026 08:13:52 +0000

We just shipped the new librefang.ai — a complete redesign of the official website for LibreFang, our open-source Agent Operating System built in Rust.

If you haven't heard of LibreFang: it's a production-grade runtime for autonomous AI agents. Single binary, 180ms cold start, 40MB memory. 15 built-in autonomous capability units ("Hands"), 44 channel adapters, 50 LLM providers. It runs agents 24/7 on a schedule — no user prompts needed.

Here's what we built for the new site.

7 languages, day one

The site ships with full translations in English, 简体中文, 繁體中文, 日本語, 한국어, Deutsch, and Español. Not machine-translated placeholders — every string was reviewed for grammar and natural phrasing.

Language detection is automatic based on your browser, and you can switch anytime from the nav.

Architecture visualized

The homepage walks through LibreFang's five-layer architecture:

Channels — 44 adapters: Telegram, Slack, Discord, WhatsApp, Signal, Matrix, Teams, and more
Hands — 15 autonomous units, each with its own model, tools, and workflow
Kernel — agent lifecycle, workflow orchestration, budget control, scheduling
Runtime — Tokio async, WASM sandbox, Merkle audit chain, SSRF protection
Hardware — runs everywhere: laptop, VPS, Raspberry Pi, bare metal

Each layer is interactive — click to explore the components inside.

Performance benchmarks, not marketing claims

We put a comparison table right on the homepage:

Metric	Others	LibreFang
Cold Start	2.5 ~ 4s	180ms
Idle Memory	180 ~ 250MB	40MB
Binary Size	100 ~ 200MB	32MB
Security Layers	2 ~ 3	16
Channel Adapters	8 ~ 15	44
Built-in Hands	0	15

Rust, not TypeScript. Production, not prototype.

One command install with OS detection

The install section detects your OS automatically and shows the right command:

macOS / Linux:

curl -fsSL https://librefang.ai/install | sh

Windows (PowerShell):

irm https://librefang.ai/install.ps1 | iex

Tabs let you switch between macOS, Windows, and Linux manually too.

Downloads & changelog

The downloads section pulls release data in real-time through our own API proxy. Desktop apps, CLI binaries, everything categorized by platform.

The changelog page shows a full timeline of releases with:

Category filters (features, fixes, etc.)
Download counts per asset
Auto-linked #issue references and @username mentions in release notes

Tech stack

React + TypeScript + Vite
Tailwind CSS for styling
Framer Motion for animations
TanStack Query for data fetching
Cloudflare Workers for the GitHub stats proxy

No heavy frameworks. No CMS. Just a fast SPA that gets out of your way.

What's next

LibreFang itself is moving fast — WhatsApp bidirectional routing just landed, prompt versioning and A/B experiments are in, and we're working toward the v1.0 milestone.

The website will keep evolving with the project. Docs are at docs.librefang.ai, and the deploy page at deploy.librefang.ai has one-click options for Fly.io and more.

If this sounds interesting, check out the repo: github.com/librefang/librefang

We're open source, merge-first PR policy, and all contributions are welcome. Drop a ⭐ if you like what you see.

LibreFang 0.7.0 Released

涼風羽月 — Sat, 21 Mar 2026 16:32:35 +0000

LibreFang 0.7.0 Released

We're thrilled to announce LibreFang v0.7.0—a release focused on smarter LLM routing, expanded provider support, and migration tooling for OpenFang users.

🤖 Core AI Improvements

The centerpiece of this release is LLM intent routing with a unified registry, giving you more control over how agents route requests across providers. Streaming has been rock-solid, and we've squashed internal LLM call bugs that were stripping provider prefixes unexpectedly.

🧩 Provider Ecosystem Expansion

You can now detect and integrate with Gemini CLI, Codex CLI, and Aider providers through unified CLI detection. We've also added proper support for Qwen Code CLI across the setup wizard and test connections. If you're running OpenFang, our new migrate --from openfang command makes switching over painless—we've hardened the migration inputs and completed the migration across the init wizard, API, and dashboard.

🔧 Operations & Configuration

This release brings finer-grained control over your deployment:

Configurable CORS policies for your environment
Channel rate limits to prevent runaway resource usage
Audit pruning to keep log storage under control
Media gates for content filtering

📖 Documentation

We've reorganized docs as a Next.js deployment directory for better maintainability, added a comprehensive comparison page to help you understand LibreFang's positioning, and cleaned up remaining artifacts.

🛠️ Under the Hood

Fixed npm/PyPI publish workflows (now running via Shell)
Synced upstream improvements
Hardened OpenClaw migration inputs
Various streaming and registry fixes

LibreFang 0.6.8 Released

涼風羽月 — Fri, 20 Mar 2026 09:46:15 +0000

LibreFang 0.6.8 Released

LibreFang v0.6.8 is here, and we've made it easier than ever to get started! This release focuses on accessibility — our biggest win is distributing the CLI binary through npm and PyPI, so you can install LibreFang alongside your other dev tools. We've also improved multi-agent communication and tightened up our CI/CD pipeline.

🚀 Game-Changer: CLI Now on npm & PyPI

The standout feature of this release: you can now install the LibreFang CLI directly from npm and PyPI (#1323). No more hunting for pre-built binaries or compiling from source unless you want to. If you're a JavaScript or Python developer, it's as simple as npm install -g librefang-cli or pip install librefang-cli. This dramatically lowers the barrier to entry for teams already using these ecosystems.

💬 Better Multi-Agent Communication

We've enhanced how LibreFang handles external DM routing. Your agents can now intelligently route owner responses when handling external direct messages (#1266) — meaning cleaner, more predictable conversation flows across federated agent networks.

🛠️ Under the Hood

Smarter automation: We now use the GitHub API directly to create Go SDK tags (#1321), making our release process more reliable and less error-prone.

LibreFang 0.6.7 Released

涼風羽月 — Fri, 20 Mar 2026 07:56:54 +0000

LibreFang 0.6.7 Released

We're thrilled to release LibreFang v0.6.7—a focused update that strengthens extensibility, improves developer experience, and hardens our release pipeline. If you're building custom agents with HAND manifests or relying on context hooks, this one's for you.

Extensibility & Scripting Improvements

The foundation of LibreFang's power is its flexibility. This release fixes critical gaps in how your custom code integrates:

Include user-installed HAND manifests in hand routing (#1205) — Custom HAND agent manifests are now properly discovered and included in the routing system, eliminating the friction of manual registration.
Pass raw JSON payloads to context hook scripts (#1207) — Context hooks now receive unprocessed JSON instead of serialized strings, giving you full control and eliminating unnecessary parsing overhead.

Better Developer Experience

Self-heal fish config PATH entries (#1303) — Your shell configuration now automatically recovers from corrupted PATH entries in fish, keeping your development environment stable without manual fixes.

Community & Documentation

Add GitHub Discussions link to dashboard sidebar (#1302) — Find answers and connect with the community without leaving the dashboard. We're making it easier for everyone to share knowledge and get help.

Release & CI Reliability

Behind the scenes, we've tightened our release process to ensure smooth deployments:

Pass GITHUB_TOKEN to contributor/star-history scripts (#1300) — Improved authentication for release automation, reducing friction in contributor tracking.
Fix 3 release workflow failures from v0.6.6 (#1309) — Resolved critical blockers in the release pipeline for more reliable deployments.

LibreFang 0.6.6 Released

涼風羽月 — Fri, 20 Mar 2026 03:39:47 +0000

LibreFang 0.6.6 Released

LibreFang v0.6.6 is now available! This release focuses on deployment reliability, ensuring your Agent OS containers build and deploy smoothly in modern CI/CD pipelines.

What's New in 0.6.6

🐳 Docker Build Fix

We've updated our Docker build pipeline to be compatible with the latest docker/build-push-action@v7. The action now requires the file parameter instead of the older dockerfile syntax — a breaking change that affected deployments using this popular GitHub Action.

What this means for you: If you're deploying LibreFang via GitHub Actions, this fix ensures your Docker builds continue to work without manual intervention. No action needed on your end — just upgrade and deploy with confidence.

涼風羽月 — Thu, 19 Mar 2026 16:48:51 +0000

LibreFang 0.6.4 Released

We're excited to announce LibreFang v0.6.4 — another solid update to your open-source Agent Operating System! This release brings new LLM providers, important stability improvements, and a fresh coat of paint. Let's dive in.

What's New

Expanded LLM Support

LibreFang now supports Qwen Code CLI as a new LLM provider (#1224), giving you even more options for powering your agents. We also aligned the init defaults with OpenRouter Stepfun (#1262), so new users get better out-of-the-box configuration.

Image Pipeline & Subprocess Management

LibreFang 0.6.3 Released

We're excited to announce LibreFang v0.6.3 — another solid release packed with improvements across the board! This version brings better security, smoother onboarding, and important fixes that make your Agent OS experience more reliable.

What's New

🚀 Better Onboarding & Token Management

The init experience just got smarter. LibreFang now auto-initializes the vault during librefang init, so you can start building agents right away without extra setup steps. We've also added token consumption metadata to help you track usage more precisely, and reduced the default "hands" (concurrent agent slots) to give you more conservative resource allocation out of the box.

🔒 Security & Encryption

A big one for webhook users — encrypted webhook payloads are now properly decrypted before processing, so your integrations with external services stay secure. The context engine also now bootstraps correctly during startup, ensuring your agent configurations are available from the moment the system comes up.

🐛 Bug Fixes

Channel tests now properly support target IDs for more accurate testing scenarios
Linux installer is now POSIX-compatible, fixing installation issues on various Linux distributions
General stability improvements across the board
