Changelog

v1.1.0 — 2026-03-24

New features

• HTTP custom tools — zero-code HTTP API → Agent tool bridge. Configure any REST API as a callable tool in Settings → HTTP Tools with interpolation, custom headers, body templates, and response extraction. No code, no restart.
• Tool auto-register architecture — drop a .js file into server/services/tools/ or data/custom-tools/ and it auto-registers on startup. toolRegistry.autoRegisterTools() replaces manual registerTool() calls.
• Tool registry refactor — centralized server/services/tool-registry.js manages global tool registration, per-agent allow/deny lists, and LLM schema conversion.
• Settings API for HTTP tools — full CRUD + test endpoints for managing HTTP custom tools via REST API.
• HTTP tools management UI — create, edit, delete, and test HTTP tools from the web frontend.

Improvements

• Dockerfile optimization — switched base image from node:22-alpine to node:22-slim for better compatibility. Selective COPY of specific directories replaces COPY . . for smaller, more secure images. Added NODE_ENV=production default. Single volume /app/data.
• .dockerignore update — explicitly include data/channel-presets in Docker builds.

Fixes

• Channel session agent sync — fixed agent_id not syncing in sessions when channel configuration changes.
• External channel map refresh — frontend now refreshes the external channel map after channel create/update/delete operations.
