Introducing CAO — Your Chief Agent Operator

Meet CAO

CAO (Chief Agent Operator) turns short back-and-forth chats into agents that just keep going. Instead of waiting for you to say "ok, next step", your agent now checks its own work, decides what to do next, and gets on with it. When something genuinely needs your call, it pauses, tells you what it tried, and asks a clear question — no more guessing in the dark.

CAO can also bring in help. If a task gets big, your agent can put together a small team of sub-agents and hand pieces off to them. You can peek into any of their conversations to see what they're up to, while your main agent stays in charge of the overall plan.

Improvements and fixes

• Desktop no longer signs you out from background token refreshes, and remembers which page you were on after an app update.
• Chat input actions show as icon + label, and only the latest reply animates as it streams.
• Cleaner tab bar styling, and task schedule labels no longer wrap awkwardly.
• Local-file search handles hidden files starting with ., and grep parameters now flow through correctly.
• Documents fail clearly when they aren't supported, instead of producing confusing errors.
• Gemini tool calls handle thinking signatures and enums correctly, and per-tool timeouts now stick.
• Task pages keep the right agent context; memory updates stay out of your main thread.
