Oct 19, 2026covers Oct 12–19, 2026

fork a chat you don't own, and retry a failed job

provenance: agent (anthropic/claude-sonnet-5.5) from commit history; reviewed in PR before publishing.

chat#

A chat you don't own opens with a read-only composer and a "fork to continue" button. Forking copies the whole conversation into a chat of your own, so you can pick up a colleague's work without changing theirs.
A failed job's in-progress card turns into an error card in place, showing the error, the tool, the parameters and the time. This applies to guest and signed-in runs.
The jobs menu and active-job chips keep running jobs in view until they finish, and each finished job announces itself once.

Oct 5, 2026covers Sep 28 – Oct 5, 2026

diffdock poses open, and studio panels get cancel, retry and download

provenance: agent (anthropic/claude-sonnet-5.5) from commit history; reviewed in PR before publishing.

chat#

Ivy shows short progress notes between tool steps, collapsed on saved messages, so you can see what it is doing on a long turn.
The chat page shows one loading screen when it opens.
When a tool needs a higher plan or you run out of credits, an upgrade card links to plans.
An answer that finishes in a background tab is saved when you close the tab.

FY26 Q3 · Jul 27 – Sep 28

Sep 28, 2026covers Sep 21–28, 2026

failed job cards say why, and api answers arrive once

provenance: agent (anthropic/claude-sonnet-5.5) from commit history; reviewed in PR before publishing.

chat#

A tool call that has already returned its result shows as finished, not in progress.
The quick-action chips on the homepage show only actions a guest can run.

Sep 21, 2026covers Sep 14–21, 2026

failed results look failed on the canvas

provenance: agent (anthropic/claude-sonnet-5.5) from commit history; reviewed in PR before publishing.

chat#

Lists of SMILES strings and markdown tables arrive intact. Short answers full of bond and ring notation are no longer replaced by a cut-off notice.
An answer that is cut short gives the right reason for it.
Long turns that chain several tools keep running when a background job reports back partway through.
The end-of-turn summary counts the analysis that ran, and says when a turn was interrupted.

Sep 14, 2026covers Sep 7–14, 2026

ivy tells you when it used a different tool

provenance: agent (anthropic/claude-sonnet-5.5) from commit history; reviewed in PR before publishing.

chat#

When you name a tool, it isn't run, and another method produces the result, the answer adds a note saying so. You know which method the result actually came from.
A reply that ended early because you sent your next message is marked "reply ended early - partial answer preserved", so it doesn't read as a finished answer.
Queued prompts are editable before they send.

Sep 7, 2026covers Aug 31 – Sep 7, 2026

a bell tells you when a job finishes

provenance: agent (anthropic/claude-sonnet-5.5) from commit history; reviewed in PR before publishing.

chat#

The plan progress card shows only the workflow you asked for, not a different one that matched equally well.
Clinical trial results keep their canvas preview when you reopen a chat.

Aug 31, 2026covers Aug 24–31, 2026

igblast cards show the full v, d and j picture

provenance: agent (anthropic/claude-sonnet-5.5) from commit history; reviewed in PR before publishing.

chat#

Older chats that contain an incomplete tool record open and continue normally.
When a response is cut off, a toast names the tool calls that never started.
Tool results that arrive late attach to the answer that was already saved.
Exported transcripts count every tool that ran in a step.

Aug 24, 2026covers Aug 17–24, 2026

stop ends the run, and live updates reconnect on their own

provenance: agent (anthropic/claude-sonnet-5.5) from commit history; reviewed in PR before publishing.

chat#

Stop ends the run when you have sent a second message while the first was still going. A queued prompt waits for you rather than sending itself after you press Stop.
Live chat updates resume after a dropped connection. The message list catches up on its own, without a reload.
Streaming text stays in place as it arrives instead of being wiped and repainted.
Delivered answers no longer contain unfilled template placeholders.

Aug 17, 2026covers Aug 10–17, 2026

running jobs show time left, and reloads bring back tool results

provenance: agent (anthropic/claude-sonnet-5.5) from commit history; reviewed in PR before publishing.

chat#

Reloading a chat restores its tool calls and their results along with the replies. Ivy continues with the full history, and you can reopen any earlier result.
An approve or deny click made after a pause registers. You can step away from an approval card and come back to it.
Returning to a tab no longer drops a message that hadn't finished saving.
The final answer appears without a short planning paragraph flashing first.

Aug 3, 2026covers Jul 27 – Aug 3, 2026

reloaded chats keep the whole conversation

provenance: agent (anthropic/claude-sonnet-5.5) from commit history; reviewed in PR before publishing.

chat#

Reloading the page, switching chats or coming back to a tab restores the full conversation for Ivy. The next turn carries on from where you were instead of starting cold.
Earlier tool results stay available after a reload. Ivy works from data it already fetched rather than asking for it again.
Ivy plans every tool you name in your message, not only the first one.
An answer stays on screen while Ivy revises it. You no longer see it replaced by a "Revising response..." placeholder or flash and redraw with the same text.

Jul 27, 2026covers Jul 20–27, 2026

batch results land in the chat, and a declined run stays declined

provenance: agent (anthropic/claude-sonnet-5.5) from commit history; reviewed in PR before publishing.

chat#

Switching models mid-chat keeps the earlier turns. The next answer knows what you asked before, so you don't have to restate it.
Free tools run without a $0.00 approval card. When free and paid tools run together, only the paid ones ask for approval.
A costly run you decline is not requested again in the same turn. The chat moves on instead of waiting on another approval card.
Tools you name in your message are available from the first turn, even when they belong to a different kind of task. Ivy no longer replies that a tool you just named is unavailable.
Antibody design requests go to antibody tools rather than small-molecule ones.
