v1.0.418

Released: 2026-04-11

A Brand New Look

This is the most beautiful version of MateClaw we've ever made.

We rebuilt the entire interface from scratch — frosted glass effects, unified design tokens, responsive layout, collapsible panels. Every pixel has been rethought. This isn't a reskin. It's a reimagining of how you interact with your AI assistant.

The chat experience has been radically simplified: we removed the status noise you didn't need, made the approval flow feel natural, and introduced segmented message display with progressive loading and real-time persistence — you can watch the AI think step by step, like standing at a whiteboard with a brilliant colleague.

Three Big Things

1. True Workspace Isolation

Every workspace is now its own world. Its own agents, its own permissions, its own file boundaries.

• Completely redesigned information architecture — navigation, settings, security all restructured
• Workspace active directory (basePath) restricts AI to operate only within your designated folder, with symlink escape prevention
• Permission hierarchy: owner → admin → member → viewer — who sees what, who changes what, crystal clear

2. Full Internationalization

MateClaw now speaks two languages.

Every tool description, error message, security rule, and approval prompt on the backend — all bilingual Chinese/English. Not machine-translated. Structured i18n infrastructure. English-speaking users finally see the interface they deserve.

3. Chat-Based Scheduled Tasks

New CronJobTool — just say "check my server status every morning at 9am" in the chat, and the agent creates a cron job for you. No menus to find. No cron syntax to learn. This is what an AI operating system should feel like.
