Image Generation, Desktop, and Auth Updates 🎨

From July through August, LobeHub shipped AI image generation, expanded identity and access options, and kept refining the desktop experience. The common thread is practical capability you can use immediately—more ways to create visuals, easier connections to existing systems, and smoother day-to-day workflows on desktop.

Generate images your way

LobeHub now supports AI image generation through Google Imagen, Qwen, Zhipu CogView4, and MiniMax. Pick the provider that matches your quality, speed, and budget preferences without changing your overall workflow.

Use this to:

  • Generate visuals directly in chat without switching tools
  • Compare outputs across providers for the same prompt
  • Route image requests based on your current project needs

Connect to existing identity systems

Authentication now extends to Amazon Cognito, Google SSO, and Okta. If your organization already runs on these systems, connecting LobeHub is now a configuration step rather than a migration project.

This release also adds authentication support for Streamable HTTP MCP servers, and the API Key management interface is now fully functional for creating, managing, and rotating keys.

Desktop and model updates

Desktop improvements include network proxy configuration, custom hotkey support, OAuth flow refinements, and remote chat capabilities. These changes make the desktop app more adaptable across different network environments and team setups.

The model library expands with Claude Opus 4.1, Grok-4, Kimi K2, and Ollama gpt-oss, plus updates to Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite GA, Hunyuan A13B thinking, and Doubao reasoning models.

Improvements and fixes

  • Added desktop notifications
  • Refined settings window layout
  • Improved multi-monitor behavior
  • Enhanced MCP plugin invocation and rendering
  • Fixed Gemini Artifacts line-break issues
