Herd 2.0 is here!

After months of hard work, we are excited to show you a redesigned and new Herd experience. This release brings a new applications window, Herd Studio, worktree support, automatic artisan dev support, Laravel Cloud support, self-healing, and much more!

Herd Studio

We’re introducing Herd Studio! The easiest way to interact with your agents right from your local sites. Just click on the “Edit with Herd” badge on any of your sites and jump into an opencode-powered agent chat - with additional context to make sure your agents spend less time guessing.

Parallel workspaces with separate databases for you and your agents

This one has been requested for quite a while! Herd now automatically detects available git worktrees and makes them available as a subdomain of your site - so every agent can automatically verify its work for you. The herd CLI also comes with a range of new commands to make copy-on-write creation of individual site workspaces really easy.

Artisan Dev support

Ever visited a local site only to find out that you still have to start a queue worker, Vite and more? Those days are over as Herd can automatically start php artisan dev or vite for you when you visit your site locally. Click on the Herd Studio badge to quickly inspect the state of your commands, or jump into a terminal.

Your applications have a new home

Herd 2.0 gives your applications a dedicated window, so you can quickly create a new app, check out your agents’ workspaces or deploy your apps.

Laravel Cloud support

Herd has added Laravel Cloud support - just connect your Cloud account with Herd and you can deploy your applications straight from Herd’s UI.

And much more!

Pull request by @eas4ai

MariaDB vector distance queries now convert bound vectors with vec_fromtext(), fixing SQL errors when using methods such as whereVectorSimilarTo() and orderByVectorDistance(). The new AsVector Eloquent cast reads MariaDB's binary vectors or PostgreSQL-compatible text vectors as arrays of floats and accepts arrays or Arrayable values when writing them.
