Browse Lobby brand assets in the shared brand colours

Improvements

  • Find Lobby logos and illustrations in a public, searchable library. Copy original URLs and download files without signing in. The library, public pages, social card and docs use the approved Deep Red and Butter brand colours.

  • The shared Ablo asset library includes Lobby logos and illustrations. Lobby asset and manifest URLs redirect there, and the marketing footer links directly to it. Public pages, social cards and docs retain the approved brand colours.

Resume and move chats into large workspaces in seconds

Improvements

  • When an agent moves a chat to another project, Lobby tells it to stop and say where it is going, so the chat shows a brief handoff instead of a long status report before work continues in the destination.

Fixes

  • Workspace checkpoints store each file's contents once, in a few compressed packs, so a restored workspace with many worktrees no longer downloads thousands of separate files. A chat moving into such a project starts its agent within the startup window instead of timing out. Existing checkpoints keep restoring.

Smoother chat interruption and navigation

Improvements

  • Follow-up messages sent during Stop are saved for delivery after cancellation, including across reloads. Chat status controls and Inbox headings align with their lists, and routine agent updates load less conversation history.

  • Workspace status distinguishes current readiness from saved dependencies and reports preparation attempts, source revisions and timings. Compatible fresh checkouts on the same authorized runner can reuse saved dependencies while preserving source files and requiring fresh service authorization.

Fixes

  • Empty New Agent and chat inputs keep a single text row so attachment, send and Stop controls stay vertically centered. Typed multiline drafts continue growing normally.

  • Empty workspaces left behind by moved chats can retire after a 30-minute grace period and a verified recovery checkpoint. Active claims, background jobs and remaining chats prevent cleanup; normal suspended-workspace retention is unchanged.

Recover missing native agent sessions without replacing peers

Improvements

  • Deleting a project and its content skips redundant existence queries while retaining full content, active-agent and revision checks.

Fixes

  • Failed native startup preserves queued instructions and can recover with fresh authority on the same shared host. Personal Codex token requests retain their deadline while reporting correlated response timing and status without private payloads.

Keep checkpoint downloads moving with bounded signing

Improvements

  • Development previews can route browser authentication to their private Auth service using the existing site and Auth URL settings, while retaining host-only session cookies.

  • Agents using guarded file tools receive notices in subsequent tool results when a teammate changes a file they previously read. Stale edits remain rejected so the agent can reread before retrying.

  • Local deployments can configure their server and browser engine endpoints while retaining normal credential checks.

  • Managed services using private credentials can request exact provider destinations, with approval required before each start.

  • Adding or reconfiguring a managed service no longer reinstalls unchanged dependencies or requires stopping other services. Dependency and setup changes still invalidate preparation.

Fixes

  • Workspace restore signs full batches independently of slow downloads, retaining sixteen body slots and serial authorization. Capture keeps its existing batches.

  • Agent event saves back off within a bounded budget when decision rows are busy. A rejected background source notification stays contained instead of terminating the shared runner.

  • Onboarding rechecks account membership when an earlier cached result would send a newly created workspace back to setup.

  • When an agent loses a file claim, the chat preserves a recovery message instead of silently appearing finished. Ownership checks remain required before editing resumes.
