A model and reliability update: Claude Opus 4.8 joins the hosted catalog, Gemini 3.5 Flash is now available to cloud users after a missing platform rate card was blocking requests, the sleep policy gains 1-hour and 3-hour idle presets, per-assistant sleep thresholds now survive wake cycles, inbound email is fixed on Resend-registered domains, disk-usage alerts fire an owner email, and API key rotation gets a propagation grace period.

Highlights

  • Claude Opus 4.8 now available: Anthropic's latest Opus model is live in the hosted catalog and selectable across all surfaces
  • Gemini 3.5 Flash on the hosted service: the model was already selectable in the local UI but a missing platform-side rate card returned a 400 for every cloud request; the rate card and billing entry are now wired in so cloud users can select it without hitting a rejection
  • Sleep policy 1-hour and 3-hour presets: two shorter idle-sleep durations join the sleep policy control in Settings alongside the existing 1-day, 3-day, and 7-day options so assistants can be tuned to sleep faster without using the full daily minimum
  • Idle-sleep thresholds persist across wake cycles: per-assistant sleep cutoff settings were being reset to the system default after each wake event; the configured threshold now survives correctly
  • Disk-usage email notifications: when workspace storage crosses the alert threshold the assistant owner now receives an email with remediation links to upgrade storage or ask the assistant to clean up, alongside the existing in-app error notification
  • API key rotation grace period: a short overlap window during key rotation keeps the old key valid while the new key propagates, eliminating the authentication gap that could cause brief request failures on self-hosted instances
  • Email inbound receiving fixed on Resend domains: newly registered Resend domains had receiving silently disabled because the create-domain API call was missing the nested capabilities object; inbound replies were being dropped with no error surfaced
