Highlights

This release adds live streaming voice input, a redesigned Assistant governance page, and significant team-mode and update-flow reliability work.

Streaming Voice Input

• Speech now transcribes live as you talk — partial and final text appears in the input box in real time, in both the chat send box and the home page (powered by streaming-capable presets like Deepgram and OpenAI).
• macOS fix: the microphone now works under the hardened runtime. Previously Speech-to-Text silently recorded nothing and the app never appeared under Privacy & Security → Microphone.

Assistant Governance (Phase 1)

• Assistant Settings is now a full-page governance area: builtin and custom assistants live in one list, with a full-page editor replacing the old drawer, and assistant-bound conversations are clearly separated from plain agent chats.

Team Mode Reliability

• Team-mode conversations now share one message contract between live and restored sessions, so history renders consistently, with send-box gating kept in sync with the latest runtime state.

Conversation UX Polish

• More compact desktop defaults (smaller default fonts and 95% zoom, tighter line spacing) for a denser, tidier chat view. Existing custom font/zoom settings are untouched; Reset and Cmd/Ctrl+0 return to the new defaults.
• The send box now correctly stays busy while a request is being cancelled, so you can't fire a new message into a runtime that's still tearing down.

Bug Fixes

• WebUI: Office (PPT/Word/Excel) previews no longer return 404 — every Office preview in browser mode was broken before this fix (desktop was unaffected).
• WebUI: the workspace folder picker is clickable again in the cron and team-create dialogs, instead of degrading to a plain text field.
• Windows: recover from upgrade failures where the installer wrongly reported "AionUi cannot be closed" due to a long-path cleanup error in the old uninstaller.
• Updates now wait for the backend to fully shut down before installing, avoiding mid-install lifecycle errors.
