v26.8.1, build 251 (2026-08-xx xx:xx UTC)

• Added a prototype Visual Briefing Assistant that turns documents, data, images, audio, and video into self-contained interactive HTML briefings.
• Added organization-configurable defaults and visibility controls for the Visual Briefing Assistant.
• Added a share button for plugins, which uses the native share dialog on Windows and macOS. For Linux, we added an export option for plugins, which stores the plugin archive at a location of your choice.
• Added an import button on the plugin page to install plugin archives directly from your files.
• Added the option to import plugins by dropping a plugin archive onto the plugin page.
• Added the dedicated file extension .mwplugin for plugin archives.
• Added an option for organizations to disable importing, sharing, and exporting plugins.
• Added a priority for configuration plugins. Organizations that deploy several configurations can now decide which one wins: a configuration with a higher priority overrides the settings and providers of a lower one. This allows a company-wide base configuration that each department refines for itself.
• Improved how your organization's configuration behaves when a configuration plugin is present but cannot be loaded, e.g. because of an error in the plugin. Such a plugin still manages your app, so its settings, providers, data sources, profiles, and chat templates now stay in place instead of being removed.
• Changed how approvals for assistant plugins combine when your organization deploys several configurations. They now add up, so a department can approve additional assistant plugins without repeating the approvals of the company-wide configuration. Previously, the last configuration replaced all earlier approvals, which silently required a new security check for those assistants.
• Fixed reset buttons in assistants. As you may have noticed in the Document Analysis Assistant, resetting it could leave content from the previous analysis visible. Reset buttons now clear previous results completely.
• Fixed dropping files after you closed a dialog that accepts files itself. Such a dialog takes over dropped files while it is open, but never handed that role back when you closed it. Afterwards, the chat and the assistants silently ignored dropped files until you switched to another page. Each time you opened such a dialog again, the problem got worse.
• Fixed configuration-managed settings remaining active after their configuration plugin was removed.
• Fixed the integrated code editor to keep errors and other issues in plugin code visible in the footer while scrolling.
• Fixed the trusted badge so you can now see at a glance which models are trusted. It is shown consistently for self-hosted models and models from trusted providers.
• Fixed preview features contributed by several configuration plugins at once. Only the most recent contribution was recognized as coming from your organization, so features enabled by another configuration looked as if you had switched them on yourself. Each configuration is now tracked separately, which lets your organization enable one preview feature company-wide and another one for a single department.
• Fixed which configuration wins when two configuration plugins collide, e.g. by claiming the same plugin ID, by managing the same setting, or by defining the same provider. Previously, this was down to chance, so a local configuration plugin could take over parts of the configuration your IT department deployed. Configurations from your organization now always win, and every ignored attempt is reported in the log.
• Upgraded dependencies to their latest versions to improve security and stability.
