    BoltAI v2.8.5

    BoltAI adds message diagnostics with response timing and tokens-per-second, improves chat image and file handling, cleans up code block and SVG rendering, strengthens API key encryption, and makes Cloud Sync, OpenRouter tools, math parsing, and license refresh more reliable.

    Build 60

    • Added: Message diagnostics now show response timing and generation speed, with support for always showing tokens-per-second when enabled in settings.
    • Improved: Chat images are easier to work with. Saving, dragging, and download flows are more reliable, including images and files generated from in-chat data URLs.
    • Improved: Code blocks and SVG outputs now render more cleanly, with better save actions for generated artifacts.
    • Improved: Stored API keys now use stronger encryption settings by default, and Security settings can prompt you to upgrade older encrypted services.
    • Fixed: Cloud Sync is more reliable around session refresh, first-sync recovery, and chat paging, reducing cases where sync retries could fail or leave partial local state behind.
    • Fixed: Improved OpenRouter web plugin availability so compatible tools are offered more consistently in chat.
    • Fixed: Inline math parsing is now safer by default and correctly follows your rendering setting, reducing accidental math formatting in normal text.
    • Improved: License refresh now provides clearer feedback in Settings and the upgrade flow.

    BoltAI 2.8.4

    BoltAI releases Fixed Build 59 with a prompt-based title generator and improved Claude and Anthropic chats plus stronger attachments sync.

    Build 59

    Improved

    • Added support for a new title generation mode "prompt": automatically generate a title using user prompt - no LLM involved.
    • Better Cloud Sync reliability for attachments in some edge cases.

    Fixed

    • Improved reliability for Claude and Anthropic chats that use Search, so older conversations are less likely to fail when you continue the thread later.
    • Resolved an issue where some Claude and Anthropic chats with tool use could get stuck with tool-history errors instead of continuing normally.

    • Fixed: Improved MCP server reliability after idle periods, so reconnecting and resuming tool use is more reliable.
