🧠 Memory System Upgrade

Memory flush improvements:
  • Use the LLM to summarize out-of-window conversations into compact daily memory entries
  • Summarization runs asynchronously on a background thread, never blocking replies
  • Smarter batch trimming policy reduces flush frequency
  • Daily scheduled flush as a safety net for low-activity scenarios
  • Fixed context-memory loss issues

🔧 Tool Refactoring

  • Image Vision: Image recognition (Vision) is refactored from a Skill into a built-in Tool with a dedicated Vision Provider configuration, improving stability and maintainability (a50fafa, 3b8b562)
  • Web Fetch: Web fetch is refactored from a Skill into a built-in Tool with support for downloading and parsing remote documents (PDF, Word, Excel, PPT) (ccb9030, fa61744)

​
🐳 Docker Deployment Improvements

  • Config Template Alignment: docker-compose.yml env vars aligned with config-template.json, covering full model API key and Agent settings
  • Web Console Port Mapping: Added 9899 port mapping so the Web Console is reachable in browser after Docker deployment
  • Hot Config Reload: Bot API key and API base are now read at request time — changes from the Web Console take effect without restart
  • Workspace Persistence: Added a ./cow volume mount so agent workspace data (memories, persona, skills, etc.) persists across container rebuilds and upgrades

​
⚡ Performance Improvements

  • Faster Startup: The Feishu channel imports its dependencies lazily, avoiding a 4–10s startup delay (924dc79)
  • Channel Stability: Improved channel connection stability and added env-var support for channel configuration (f1c04bc, 46d97fd)
