# Release notes

What changed in each release of @bud.sh/app.

## 0.7.0

The release that lets agents do the work: a comment becomes a task, an agent finishes it in a sandbox, and you review it before anything is pushed.

### New

- **The factory.** Make a task from a comment on the canvas or in the code and start it: a coding agent ([OpenCode](https://opencode.ai)) works on it in a sandbox, a worktree on your machine or a fresh one on [boat.dev](https://boat.dev), on its own `dev/` branch with its own dev server. When it's done the task waits for review: open the live preview, ask for changes, or approve, which pushes only that branch. See [Factory](/docs/app/guides/factory).
- **Agent view.** A task's live preview beside the agent's terminal, with tabs for the agent, the dev server's log and a shell, and a switch to **Chat**: the agent's whole session (prompts, replies, tool calls and edits with their diffs) as it happens, where you can send messages, with images, or stop the agent.
- **Agents.** A screen of every agent session, the ones waiting for someone first, with the open session's chat or terminal beside the list. One message in its box makes a task and starts its run.
- **Live agent status.** With `factory.herdr`, Bud runs the agent in [herdr](https://herdr.dev) as well and shows whether it's working, needs input or is done.
- **Hosting on GitHub.** A hosted Bud on Cloudflare now reviews a GitHub repository, also a project in a folder of a monorepo (`path`), on a host name of your own (`domain`); captures install with the repository's lockfile (Bun, pnpm or npm), and the factory runs on boat.dev. See [Hosting on Cloudflare](/docs/app/collaboration/hosting).
- **Themes from three colors.** A theme's `background`, `foreground` and `primary` are enough: Bud derives every other token, the terminal and the agent's interface included. A theme that also sets its `shell` gets its tints from it.

### Changed

- **A simpler tasks screen.** The board is agent-driven: no priorities and no blocked-by dependencies, and cards move by hand only to Closed and back. Each task shows the person who made it, and the board filters by person. Epics and linked tasks stay.
- **Only what's set up shows.** A screen, button or notice appears only once its feature is set up; `bud doctor` explains the rest.
- **Fewer dependencies.** The docs' Markdown pipeline, the slugger, YAML, the array diff, the picture comparison, the safe regular expressions and the icons are Bud's own code now.
- **Node 26.12** or newer is required.

### Breaking for hosted Bud

- GitHub replaces Bitbucket: `GITHUB_TOKEN` reads the repository and pushes the factory's `dev/` branches, and `BITBUCKET_API_KEY`, `BITBUCKET_API_EMAIL` and `BUD_FACTORY_PUSH_TOKEN` are gone.
- The deploy no longer makes a `BUD_REMOTE_TOKEN`; add one to `.env` when another host needs the remote API.
