# Foxora v5 release notes

Foxora v5 unifies the desktop, web, CLI, shared UI, local runtime, cloud engine, and Memory Den around the same task and tool contracts.

![V5 release notes in Foxora v5.0.3](/docs/images/v5.0.3/settings/about.webp)

## Workspace and tasks

- Tasks are durable work threads with their own transcript, project context, agent or crew selection, autonomy mode, and Stage state.
- Projects provide the filesystem boundary; tasks provide conversational and execution history.
- Forking, recovery, checkpoints, archiving, and run history keep long work inspectable and recoverable.
- Desktop and CLI can use the same local runtime on one device. The web runtime uses cloud execution and does not automatically copy device-local tasks or files.

## Foxora workspace and Studio

- The **foxora** workspace contains New Task, Projects, Workflows, Schedules, the project list, and the task list.
- **studio** contains Bots, Agents, Crews, Skills, Tools, Memory, and Plugins.
- **Runs**, transcript view, and right-panel controls live in the active task header.
- Account, Appearance, Voice, Models, Browser, Plugins, Channels, Brand, MCP Server, Permissions, Data, System, Keyboard, and About live in Settings.

An **Extensions** Studio surface is not part of v5.0.3. Use Skills for procedural knowledge, Plugins for supported application accounts, MCP Server for exposed Foxora capabilities, and the browser extension only for authorized browser-session access.

## Autonomy and approvals

Each task can use Ask Permissions, Accept Edits, Auto, or Bypass Permissions. The mode controls approval pauses; it does not make publishing, messaging, purchasing, deletion, or production changes reversible.

## Desktop and CLI

- Desktop 5.0.3 ships a signed, notarized universal macOS package and a Windows x64 installer.
- CLI 5.0.3 provides the interactive terminal, one-shot `run`, account commands, usage, models, session and crew lists, setup, update, and diagnostics.
- Signed updater manifests let compatible desktop installations discover newer releases.

## Web and cloud runtime

- The web app uses the same shared Foxora interface with a cloud-owned runtime boundary.
- Daytona workspaces provide isolated project execution and resume after provider auto-stop.
- The v2 workspace image adds a verified browser and document toolchain.
- Existing v1 workspaces are preserved until the normal lifecycle recreates them.

## Compatibility

Normal upgrades preserve application data. Before major troubleshooting, export anything important and distinguish between account data, device-local tasks, Memory Den, project files, and cloud workspace data.

See **Latest release** for the exact current versions and **Known limitations** before relying on platform-specific functionality.
