Latest release

v1.0.8010 November 2026

New
Ask a lead bot to run your routines
Tell a lead bot in chat to pause, resume, change or run any routine, and it does it for you.
New
See what each routine is worth
Every routine shows its run time and API value over 7 or 30 days, with a cost tile and per-run tokens. Sort the list to find the routines earning their keep.
New
Work on several things at once
A new task starts right away beside the one already running. Up to six run together.

November 202635 changes22 New13 Fixed

v1.0.7910 Nov

New
Email drafts arrive as email cards
Check the thread, recipients, subject and an editable body, then Send, Discard or Skip. Pressing Send is the approval, so Locul does not ask a second time.
Fixed
Routines keep going when your Mac sleeps
A sleeping Mac no longer kills a routine, and long runs now report progress instead of being cut off.

v1.0.789 Nov

New
Run your own model on a rented GPU
Set up a model on a RunPod GPU from inside Locul and keep as many named configs as you like. Locul picks the right engine for the model format and reuses a disk you already have.
New
Pin your favourite bots
Keep the bots you use most at the top of the rail, with a See all bots view and a row for bots waiting on you. Icon packs (Vegetables, Animals, Anime) give each one a face.
New
Replies lead with the answer
Each reply opens with the outcome in one to three lines. The full report sits behind Details.
New
Connect any OpenAI-compatible provider
Add your own provider in Settings and pick models from a compact list inside each chat.
Fixed
Quick questions no longer wait behind a busy task
Ask a quick question next to a running task and get an answer. One bot's status no longer shows in another bot's chat, and routines update in place.
Fixed
Bot-to-bot asks finish properly
Asks handed to another bot no longer sit on Running forever, and an ask still working elsewhere shows Working instead of Did not finish.

v1.0.777 Nov

New
Bots start each run with the right memories
Every run pulls in the Locul memories that matter to the task, and bots follow clearer rules for what is worth saving.
New
Task tabs in bot chat
Run tasks side by side in their own tabs, named after the bot, with smarter routing and one-click choice cards. A message sent right after a turn ends now starts its own run.
New
Approvals in one place
Content approvals live on the Approvals page and match the tile in chat. One live indicator shows progress, videos play inline and follow-ups join the running task.

v1.0.766 Nov

Fixed
Pasted screenshot paths attach the picture
Pasting a screenshot's file path or link from CleanShot now attaches the image instead of typing out the path.
Fixed
Claude Code and Codex start on Windows
Claude Code and Codex installed through npm now launch correctly on Windows.
Fixed
Approval cards keep the full request
Cards show the whole request and the tool input, approving runs the original request, and an approved ask hands its result back.

v1.0.745 Nov

New
Routines get their own brief
Give each routine its own brief, apps and folder, and set it to run several times a day from the panel. Teams fold neatly in the rail.

v1.0.735 Nov

New
Change any bot's icon
Use your own picture, a built-in mark or an emoji, and reset it whenever you like.
New
An Approvals tab in plain words
See what a bot wants to do in plain language, with email previews and delegation cards. Images and PDFs you attach show up as real attachments with previews.
Fixed
Script routines wait out your Claude limit
A script routine that hits your Claude plan limit now waits for the reset instead of failing.

v1.0.724 Nov

New
More bots in the Marketplace
Eight bots to choose from, including the new AI Search Doctor and Landing Page Copywriter.
New
Skip approvals for bots you trust
Skip all approvals in a chat, or let a routine run without asking. Always allow and Allow all actions now stick for every connected app.
New
One page to import your bots
A dedicated Import bots page brings in agents from Grok Bot, Claude skills, Codex or a paste. Hermes and OpenClaw agents and MCP connectors from other AI apps come across too.
Fixed
File previews no longer crash the app
Previewing a file can no longer take Locul down.
Fixed
Memory folders work on Windows
Pick a memory folder on any drive, with copy that matches Windows.

v1.0.712 Nov

New
Your file memories follow the AI you chose
Building memories from files now uses the AI you picked in Settings > Model.

v1.0.702 Nov

Fixed
Locul's MCP server no longer crashes on start
Fixed a crash that could stop the MCP server from starting. Cursor also counts as connected when you made its mcp.json by hand.

v1.0.692 Nov

New
Import your agents from Claude Code and Codex
Import your Claude Code skills and agents and your Codex skills with one click. You can also paste from the Claude app or ChatGPT, or pull in every Grok Bot agent from one pasted reply. Locul removes secrets as it imports.
New
Onboarding in two screens
Pick your AIs, then see your bots. Nothing else in the way.
New
Your AIs use your memory without being asked
Claude Code, Codex, ChatGPT and Grok Bot now look up your Locul memory on their own. Grok Bot also gets a connector.
New
Choose which folders Locul reads
The first memory build waits until you pick folders. Search, the file watcher and note search stay inside them, where before they scanned your whole home folder.
New
Attach screenshots to support requests
Add up to three images when you contact support. They arrive linked in the email we get.
Fixed
Broken chat images show a file card
A chat image that fails to load now falls back to a full-size file card instead of a squashed sliver.

v1.0.682 Nov

Fixed
Chats no longer cut off at 15 minutes
A chat now stops after 20 minutes of silence, with a two hour cap, instead of a flat 15 minutes.

Bot results show up in the chat

Pick the AI and model for each chat
Choose which AI and model a bot uses per chat. Locul checks which models your plan accepts.

New
Ask for help or report a bug from the rail
Two entries in the bots rail. Bug reports include your Locul version and OS.
New
Bots can ask each other
A bot can hand a question to another bot, up to two levels deep, and every bot sees a one-line roster of your company's bots.
New
Open models from providers in your region
Pick EU and in-region providers from presets in Settings > Model, each linked to its setup guide.
New
Run bots on your own model server
Point Locul at a local or company server. It detects Ollama on your computer, starts it if it is stopped, downloads models in one click and shows when a model is loading. A backup model answers if the main server goes down, and open-model bots get Locul memory, notes and scheduling.
New
See the model's reasoning
A foldable Thinking panel shows how an open model got to its answer, with a Think toggle.
New
Local model builds wait for power
On a laptop with low battery or Low Power Mode, memory building on a local model waits until you are plugged in.
Fixed
The audit log names the bot
Entries now show which bot ran, instead of Agent: unknown.
Fixed
Dictation keeps your text and shows errors
Dictation shows what went wrong, keeps what you typed while dictating, and the composer clears on send even mid-dictation.

A stricter check stops Locul from marking memories that are still true as superseded.

Team invites and sharing work end to end
Invite links resolve, each team has one reusable link you can rotate, removing a member sticks, and shared items install on a teammate's machine without overwriting their own setup. Skills are shared across Claude and Codex.
Fixed
Fixed duplicate brains across devices
The cloud brain no longer doubles up, and shared keys no longer merge two different people. Locul now says so when your machines keep separate brains.

Stopped wrong findings and silent failures, and fixed export on Windows.
