Release 1.11.1 · Experimental program expansion with stronger control-plane and collaboration plumbing

This minor release ships a broad set of improvements while keeping our fastest-moving product areas clearly marked as experimental. Treat AI-assisted chat, media intelligence, and in-flight landing experiences as preview-quality: behavior, access rules, and UX may change as we learn in production.

Landing and growth (experimental / in development)

Public landing and onboarding work remains experimental. Copy, layout, and routing may shift quickly until those surfaces graduate from preview.

Media and video intelligence (experimental)

The broader media intelligence stack—including video-oriented workflows—is experimental. Features may be incomplete, capacity-limited, or access-gated while we validate quality, safety, and cost.

AI chat service (experimental access)

Org AI chat continues to align with a generation-centric architecture: the web app focuses on control (auth, prompt assembly, persistence) while streaming execution can run in a dedicated chat service path. AI remains experimental and may require explicit access or org eligibility. Expect ongoing iteration on reliability, observability, and policy.

Control plane: executions and approvals

Executions and approvals benefit from lister-backed step snapshots computed server-side, replacing brittle per-row client snippet fetching. Directive metadata and step progress are easier to scan in the grid. Database maintenance repairs legacy step status enums and grid variants so reporting stays consistent.

Collaboration (Liveblocks)

Liveblocks authorization is consolidated around server-side authorization patterns documented for operators; the older collaboration auth API route is removed—double-check proxies and environment configuration after deploy.

Authentication pages

Login, registration, 2FA, invite acceptance, and password reset adopt a shared auth page shell for more consistent layout and accessibility.

Data tables and entity grid UX

Tables gain segmented toolbar link chips and related polish across filters, sorting, and view options. The calendar date picker receives targeted usability fixes.

Research runs, team members, and contributors (directional)

This train also advances how team members and contributors collaborate around research runs: clearer operational handoffs, room for broader participation, and incremental improvements to how runs are reviewed and surfaced in the UI. More focused releases will continue to deepen these workflows; the changes here prioritize safe platform and grid plumbing first.

After deploy

Apply the new database migrations through your normal pipeline. If you operate chat-service proxies or Liveblocks integration at the edge, review the updated internal architecture notes for streaming and collaboration.
