Here's a summary of all user-facing changes on Superconductor from May 3-9:
Major changes
QA Review (Beta)
QA review runs a separate QA agent on your implementation. It returns a structured report on functionality, code quality, tests, and what should be fixed next, so you can decide where to spend review time before reading the full diff. Reach out to us for access in your project.
Environment setup asks for secrets when it needs them
When Automatic Environment Setup needs secret values from you, Superconductor now shows a warning in the project UI and sends an email with a link back to the setup flow. After you provide the requested values, the warning clears automatically and setup can continue with the inputs it was missing.
Other changes
Automatic Environment Setup has a stronger setup prompt
Automatic Environment Setup now receives more complete project context and setup instructions, improving its ability to automatically infer the right packages, commands, and configuration for new projects.
Recent Activity cards have a cleaner layout
Recent Activity cards have been tightened up across the sidebar and Recent Activity page, with better spacing, improved mobile tap states, and a less bulky card treatment.
Correct model labels on agent messages
Agent messages now show the model that actually produced the message, such as Codex, Claude Opus, or Claude Sonnet, instead of being relabeled based on your current project defaults. This makes older setup, review, email, meeting, and QA messages easier to interpret after you change credentials or default agents.
Claude Code Opus 4.5 is available again
Claude Code Opus 4.5 has been restored to the active agent list, so teams that prefer it can select it for new work again.
Minor UI polish in agent and diff views
Agent picker icons are now vertically centered, and moved or renamed file names in diffs now use the same font styling as other file names.
Fixed issues
Fewer stuck or failed agent startups
Agent runs are less likely to get stuck during startup or fail because of a temporary connection issue. Superconductor now retries more of the setup steps that can fail transiently and gives slow-starting development environments more time to become ready.
Gemini implementations are more reliable
We fixed a failure mode where Gemini implementations could fail before doing useful work because the Gemini CLI did not trust the project workspace. Gemini runs should now start more reliably.
Text artifacts render UTF-8 correctly
Text, Markdown, JSON, and YAML artifacts with accented characters, symbols, or non-Latin text now display correctly in Superconductor instead of showing garbled characters.
Commit message generation handles oversized diffs
When a repo diff is too large to include, generated commit messages now use a clear placeholder for the unavailable diff instead of crashing.
Long-running executions are less likely to be interrupted
Superconductor now prevents duplicate cloud-instance timeout records for the same action, avoiding stale timers that could pause or terminate an instance while an agent was still working.
QA Review no longer triggers broken push notifications
QA Review and Guided Review background messages no longer attempt to send user push notifications, fixing a notification error path for QA Review conversations.
