## Recent releases

| Version | Date | Urgency | Changes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `v1.9.2` | 2026-06-04 | High | Two bugs in the **config-backup** skill's full backup, fixed.  ### Fixed - **413 Payload Too Large** — once the DB grew to ~19 MB, the base64 backup body (~25 MB) blew past the file-bridge's hardcoded 25 MB Express limit, so automatic backups had been failing since ~2026-06-01. The file-bridge now gzips backups at rest (transparent `compress: true` flag — downloads and Seafile forwards decompress on the fly, no breaking change), and the body limit derives from `MAX_FILE_SIZE_MB` (20 → 200) inste |
| `v1.9.1` | 2026-05-31 | High | ## Bugfix release  Fixes a startup crash that takes the whole instance down after upgrading n8n (Issue #35).  ### The problem  n8n **2.21.4** introduced a built-in *Agents* feature. Its boot migration `CreateAgentTables1783000000000` creates a `public.agents` table and indexes its `projectId` column. n8n-claw already owned a `public.agents` table (persona and tool config, the source of the system prompt) in the same Postgres database. So n8n's `createTable('agents')` no-op'd, the follow-up `crea |
| `v1.9.0` | 2026-05-11 | High | ## What's new  n8n-claw stops being read-only on the web. Until now the agent could *read* pages (Crawl4AI as Web Reader, SearXNG as Web Search) but couldn't *do* anything — it couldn't sign you up for a newsletter, fill a contact form, click a button, log into a site to fetch private data, or run any multi-step UI flow. v1.9.0 ships **Browser Use** as a built-in capability: a real headless Chromium driven by an agentic LLM loop, exposed to the main agent as a single `browser_action` tool with |
| `v1.7.0` | 2026-05-10 | High | ## What's new  n8n-claw gets a real fitness coach skill: **Fitness Buddy** — not a chat persona that pretends to track meals, but a 14-tool MCP skill backed by 9 dedicated PostgreSQL tables that owns every meal, workout, body measurement, hydration log, goal, and training session. Voice transcripts are parsed via gpt-4o-mini structured-output, meal photos go through gpt-4o-mini Vision with strict JSON-Schema for items + grams + confidence, and the multi-week training plan generator picks exercis |
| `v1.6.0` | 2026-04-30 | High | ## What's new  Supabase's platform support for PostgreSQL 15 winds down around May 2026. PostgreSQL community EOL for 15 is November 2027. Time to move. Fresh n8n-claw installs now ship on **PostgreSQL 17.6** directly, and existing PG15 instances get an explicit `./setup.sh --upgrade-pg17` command that handles the data migration in one shot.  The right answer for n8n-claw turned out to be `pg_dump` + restore, not in-place `pg_upgrade`. Supabase's official upgrade tool is tightly coupled to their |
| `v1.5.0` | 2026-04-18 | High | ## What's new  Memory in n8n-claw used to be a passive fact store — the agent saved what you said and looked it up later. v1.5.0 turns it into an active model of the user. The agent now extracts behavior patterns, tracks half-finished thoughts, and quietly carries that context into every future conversation.  **3 new mechanisms**, no schema migration, no breaking changes.  ### Pattern Extraction (nightly)  - **memory-consolidation** workflow now runs a second LLM pass after the daily summary — e |
| `v1.4.0` | 2026-04-17 | High | ## What's new  The skill catalog now covers the core SaaS stack teams actually run their business on. CRM (HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho), issue tracking (Jira, Confluence), billing (Stripe), project management (Asana, Airtable) — plus a handful of knowledge, media, and smart-home integrations.  **16 new skills**. Catalog grows to 64.  ### CRM & Sales  - **HubSpot CRM** (28 tools) — Contacts, Companies, Deals, Tickets, Notes, Tasks, Engagements via Private App token - **Salesforce CRM** (35 tools) — |
| `v1.3.2` | 2026-04-14 | Medium | ## 💬 Discord as a second chat interface  Adds Discord alongside Telegram via an opt-in sidecar. Single y/N prompt in \`setup.sh\` — users who skip see nothing else.  ### What's new  - **discord-bridge sidecar** (\`discord.js\` v14 Gateway client + Express \`/reply\` endpoint) — joins the existing sidecar stack alongside \`email-bridge\`, \`file-bridge\`, and \`crawl4ai\` - **Opt-in via \`COMPOSE_PROFILES=discord\`** — the container is not built or started for users who don't want Discord - **Si |
| `v1.3.1` | 2026-04-14 | Medium | ## What's new  Follow-up to [v1.3.0](https://github.com/freddy-schuetz/n8n-claw/releases/tag/v1.3.0) that fixes the "agent keeps guessing wrong parameter names" problem when talking to external MCP servers through the bridge.  When a bridge-backed tool is called (e.g. DeepWiki's `ask_question`), the LLM doesn't always know the exact parameter names the external server expects — `repoUrl` vs `repoName`, `owner/repo` vs `https://...`, and so on. v1.3.0 would pass those guesses through and return t |
| `v1.3.0` | 2026-04-14 | Medium | ## What's new  n8n-claw can now install Skills that wrap **external MCP servers** — DeepWiki, Zapier, Knotie, custom bearer-auth endpoints — not just locally-hosted MCP workflows. The Library Manager had a `type: "bridge"` stub since the skill system shipped; this release fills it in.  ### Bridge Templates  - **New `type: "bridge"` template flavor** — manifests with a `bridge.mcp_url` register directly in `mcp_registry` without importing a workflow into n8n - **Auth support** — `auth_type: "none |
