Latest version
Version 2.0.0
Released Apr 4, 2026 - 12.73 MBWorks with firefox 113.0 and laterNew Web Providers- ChatGPT (chatgpt.com): Full web provider with Sentinel challenge support, model metadata extraction, thinking level control, and automatic 403 "unusual activity" recovery — detects stale sessions after inactivity, refreshes the tab, and retries seamlessly.
- DeepSeek (chat.deepseek.com): Web provider with Proof-of-Work challenge solving for session authentication.
- Doubao (www.doubao.com): Web provider for ByteDance's Doubao assistant.
- Rakuten AI (rakuten.ai): Web provider with WebSocket streaming, HMAC request signing, and token caching.
Web Provider Architecture- Plugin system: Web providers are now registered via a plugin/factory pattern (
plugin-registry.ts). Each provider is a self-contained plugin file, replacing the previous monolithic switch-case routing in the bridge. Adding a new provider is now a single file + registry entry. - Content script extraction: Provider-specific content-fetch handlers have been split out of the 3,300-line
content-fetch-main.tsinto dedicated files (content-fetch-chatgpt.ts,content-fetch-deepseek.ts,content-fetch-doubao.ts,content-fetch-gemini.ts,content-fetch-glm-intl.ts,content-fetch-rakuten.ts). The main file now contains only shared infrastructure. - Bridge improvements:
web-llm-bridge.tsnow supportsproviderMetadatafor per-provider context andretryAttemptfor retry loop prevention.
Agent Backup & Restore- ZIP-based backup: Agents can now be exported as ZIP archives containing their full configuration (model, tools, custom tools, compaction config, identity) and all workspace files.
- Restore in first-run setup: New "Restore" button in the onboarding wizard lets users bootstrap a fresh install from a previous agent backup.
- Restore in settings: Backup and restore buttons added to the Agents settings panel.
Slash Commands/new: Start a new chat session./copyand/exportnow support arguments (e.g.,/copy 3to copy the 3rd-latest assistant message).
UI Improvements- Tab indicator: An indigo outline appears on browser tabs while ChromeClaw tools are actively interacting with them, with a brief linger after completion. Reference-counted for overlapping tool calls.
- Tool call copy button: Copy tool call results directly from the chat UI.
- Improved
/exportoutput: Exports now include tool calls with parameters and results, reasoning blocks in collapsible details, and proper deduplication of tool results.
