Kavor 1.6.0

Highlights

• Adds the WebBrowser Node to the Canvas as a full human-operated Chromium browser. It supports persistent tabs, navigation, history, popups, downloads, permission prompts, find, zoom, DevTools, and a dedicated Kavor Browser Profile shared by the User's WebBrowser Nodes.
• Lets a connected CodingAgent control the exact live page visible to the User through bounded Kavor operations for page state, navigation, accessibility snapshots, actions, JavaScript evaluation, waits, screenshots, console and network inspection, response bodies, and page-scoped network rules.
• Lets CodingAgents create WebBrowser Nodes through atomic Canvas changes, optionally opening an initial URL, then discover and operate the Node through the same Connection and reachability model used elsewhere in Kavor.
• Reduces automatic CodingAgent context while preserving on-demand access to the complete graph, layout, Specification metadata, outputs, and Skills required for the current task.

Fixes

• Starts and forks Codex sessions without waiting for a rollout file that Codex has not created yet, then records the provider session after the first submitted prompt establishes its native identity.
• Preserves Codex resume, fork lineage, and synchronized session naming when provider session materialization happens after the interactive terminal has already opened.
• Uses one consistent WebBrowser vocabulary across the domain, Canvas, IPC, MCP catalog, Skills, profile partition, and internal browser scheme.
• Publishes complete input contracts for WebBrowser actions and waits so CodingAgents receive every supported field instead of an empty top-level tool schema.

Installation

Download Kavor from https://download.agentkavor.com. The page detects the current platform and also exposes every available package. Existing direct installations can check for this release from Kavor's Software Update settings. No manual Workspace-data migration is required; the WebBrowser Node is new in this release and existing Canvas data remains compatible.

• Windows x64 is available from Microsoft Store or as the assisted per-User NSIS installer. Microsoft signs and updates Store installations. The direct installer remains unsigned, so Microsoft SmartScreen may require explicit confirmation.
• macOS 13+ provides separate Apple Silicon and Intel DMGs signed with Kavor's Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple. Automatic updates use the matching architecture-specific ZIP and retain the manual DMG fallback.
• Linux x64 provides AppImage and DEB packages. AppImage supports Kavor-managed updates with an explicit coordinated restart; DEB updates are installed manually from the download page.

Known limitations

• WebBrowser Nodes use Kavor's dedicated shared Browser Profile; they do not reuse the User's external Chrome profile, extensions, history, or cookies. Deleting a Node does not erase shared site data; the global Kavor settings provide explicit cache, cookie, and site-data clearing.
• CodingAgent control requires the WebBrowser Node to be live on the Canvas. Cross-site frames isolated into another Chromium process are reported as omitted and cannot be controlled through the guest-scoped security boundary.
• Permission prompts, save dialogs, CAPTCHA, passkeys, client certificates, and operating-system authentication remain human-resolvable boundaries.
• Windows ARM64 and Linux ARM64 packages are not included until their native PTY, SQLite, process-containment, and packaged-runtime gates can run on matching CI environments.
• Windows direct downloads do not yet have an Authenticode publisher certificate; Microsoft Store packages are signed by Microsoft. Store availability may follow the direct stable release after Microsoft's independent certification completes.
