* 🏷️ fix: Model Spec Menu Label and Agent Avatar Fallbacks The selector's header already falls back from a spec's `label` to its `name` (`getSelectedValueText`), but the menu item and search result render `spec.label` bare. A spec persisted without a label therefore shows its name in the header while its row in the list is blank — selectable, but unlabeled. Specs targeting an agent had a related gap: the chat landing resolves the agent and shows its avatar, while the selector resolved icons from the spec/preset/endpoint only. An agent with an avatar still rendered a generic endpoint icon in the menu unless `iconURL` was set by hand. - Fall back to `spec.name` when `label` is absent or empty, matching the header. - Resolve the target agent's avatar as the icon when the spec defines none of its own; an explicit `iconURL` still wins. `getSpecAgentAvatarURL` returns the avatar as a primitive so the memoized `SpecIcon` compares a string rather than the identity of the agents map, and both call sites already consume `useModelSelectorContext`, so reading `agentsMap` adds no new subscription. * 🔁 refactor: Normalize Spec Labels on Ingest, Harden Agent Avatar Lookup Addresses the review findings, which fell into two patterns rather than four independent bugs. The label fallback was applied per render site, but the spec list feeds five consumers: the menu row, the search row, `filterItems`, the spec/endpoint discriminator in `SearchResults`, and `getSelectedIcon`. Guarding two of them left `filterItems` throwing on `label.toLowerCase()` and the discriminator misclassifying a label-less spec as an endpoint — reproducing, inside the fix, the exact inconsistency the fix targeted. Normalize once on ingest instead: `normalizeModelSpecs` fills a missing label from the name where the selector derives its spec list, so every consumer works from a complete spec and the per-site guards are removed. It returns the original array and the original spec objects when nothing needs filling in, so memoized consumers see no new identities. The avatar helper had the same shape of problem — a second resolution path that skipped what the existing one already handled: - Resolve via `getAgentAvatarUrl`, which supports agents persisting `avatar` as a URL string rather than an object. - Gate on `isAgentsEndpoint`. `tModelSpecPresetSchema` permits `agent_id` alongside any endpoint, so a leftover id on a non-agent spec would otherwise surface an unrelated agent's identity. - Thread the avatar through `getSelectedIcon`, so the selector trigger keeps the agent avatar after selection instead of reverting to the generic endpoint icon. * 🩹 fix: Treat Empty Spec Icon Fields as Unset `??` only skips null and undefined, so an `iconURL: ''` — what a form-backed config writer persists for an untouched field — stopped the chain and suppressed both the agent avatar and the endpoint icon, leaving the generic fallback. Resolve the first non-empty candidate instead. This matches `applyModelSpecPreset`, which already ignores an empty `iconURL`, and keeps `showIconInMenu` as the explicit way to render no icon. * 🔁 refactor: Normalize Spec Labels at the Query Boundary, Cover Favorites The context-level normalization missed a parallel consumer: the favorites sidebar reads `startupConfig.modelSpecs.list` directly, so a pinned label-less spec rendered a blank row and its icon ignored the agent avatar — the same two gaps this PR fixes in the selector. Move normalization to the true shared boundary instead of adding another per-consumer call: `useGetStartupConfig` normalizes in its query function, once per fetch, cached — so the selector, search, mentions, favorites, and provider-key reachability all read complete specs. The `ModelSelectorContext` call is removed as redundant. - `normalizeModelSpecs` is now a single pass with a lazy copy (allocated only on the first incomplete spec), replacing the `some` + `map` double scan. - `FavoriteItem` threads `agentAvatarURL` into `SpecIcon`; the list resolves it per spec from the agents map it already holds, passed as a primitive so memoization is unaffected. |

🚀 What's New in v0.8.8-rc1
- Agent run control: Interrupt or steer an Agent mid-run, queue follow-up messages, and reclaim, edit, or escalate pending steers.
- Human-in-the-loop Agents: Agents stream question progress, ask up to four related questions in one form, pause for input or tool approval, and resume.
- Unified Agent Builder: A redesigned Tools marketplace brings together Skills, MCP, Code Interpreter, orchestration, Programmatic Tool Calling, model-spec controls, and per-tool background and intent settings.
- Readable Agent activity: Generated activity-group headers, parent phase summaries, and live tool intent labels make long reasoning and tool runs easier to scan.
- Code Interpreter workflows: Code and shell tools can run in the background, sandbox images return as viewable artifacts, and highly experimental stateful sessions can reuse prewarmed conversation workspaces.
- Agent extensibility: Experimental Agent Plugins can bundle deployment Skills, MCP servers, and opt-in command hooks, while explicit subagents initialize only when selected.
- Memory, context, and identity: Agents can manage memory with optional per-agent isolation, expose support contacts safely, and show a more faithful Context Usage gauge.
- Sharing and files: Shared conversations show a badge and update at a stable URL, while signed-in viewers can continue them as personal copies.
- Artifact workflows: Open previews fullscreen, work with PowerPoint
.potxtemplates across upload, search, and code execution, upload shell scripts across common MIME variants, export Mermaid diagrams as SVG or PNG, and download original Office files from the artifact panel. - Models and reasoning: Added GPT-5.6 with Responses API reasoning controls, Claude Opus 5 and Sonnet 5, Gemini 3.7 and 3.6 Flash, and Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite.
- Langfuse observability: Configure encrypted Langfuse connections in-app, let authorized admins open sampled sessions directly, optionally fan out traces by tenant, and suppress central export per run.
- Administration and security: Delegate config sections, encrypt registered secrets, enforce SSRF checks for speech, OCR, and web tools, and generate unique temporary credentials when secrets are blank.
- Messages and navigation: Right-aligned user turns, unified multi-part editing, full-message copy, a dock-style message rail, virtualized search, smooth streaming, and faster Agent startup.
- Streaming and tool reliability: Adaptive provider smoothing, Redis delta batching, dynamic MCP tool refresh, parsed MCP response media types, runtime OAuth recovery, and Agent stream circuit breakers improve long-running workflows.
- Deployment and reliability: Added configurable HTTP timeouts, Amazon DocumentDB 5.0+ support, low-noise Redis and browser observability, and a rolling-upgrade-safe generation protocol.
