Release notes on GitHub
v0.33

Zero setup. One command. More features, no Enterprise plan required. New connectors.

ByteChef is an open-source platform for building AI agents and workflow automations. v0.33 makes it easier to try — and more capable once you do.

One command to full workflow editor

ByteChef now runs on H2 out of the box. No database to provision, no credentials file, no configuration step before you reach the editor. Run one Docker command — on amd64 or arm64 — and you're in.

docker run -p 8080:8080 bytechef/bytechef

More features, no Enterprise plan required

A lot of what previously required an Enterprise license is now available to all users:

  • User management and invites
  • AI Providers and AI Skills
  • Streaming chat and the Form trigger
  • AI Agent tools
  • Project and workflow sharing

If you've looked at ByteChef before and hit a feature wall, it's worth another look.

And more...

Execution logs that tell you what actually happened

When a workflow fails, you need to know why — fast. Logs now show readable values per task, stored durably. Failed triggers get their own rows. Formula errors surface instead of going quiet. Every node shows which component version it ran.

New connectors

Beamer, Cal.com, Browser Use V4, and ScrapeUnblocker. Plus a Google Sheets modified-row trigger, and a corrected New Row trigger — it now detects rows by content rather than position, so reordering a sheet no longer fires false inserts.

What you can build

ByteChef runs in two modes.

Automation — connect your tools and automate work across 200+ integrations.

AI Agents — configure agents with a model, memory, a knowledge base, and live tool access. Deploy them into workflows, embed them in your product, or expose them via API.

v0.31

Better AI. Better MCP. Better workflow building.

Whether you're building AI agents or production automations, v0.31 removes a lot of friction. From richer AI provider support and a cleaner MCP experience to a workflow editor that's more resilient under real-world use.

AI gets more capable

AI workflows become more flexible with expanded provider support and smarter defaults.

AI Highlights

  • Embeddings support across AI providers
  • New LiteLLM provider
  • Automatic model selection for every provider
  • Improvements to the Copilot provider catalog

Whether you're switching providers or experimenting with new models, ByteChef makes it easier to build AI workflows without changing how you work.

MCP gets a major UX upgrade

Managing Model Context Protocol servers is now cleaner and easier to navigate.

What's new

  • Redesigned card-based MCP components
  • Organized tool rows for better readability
  • Server-side keep-alive connections
  • Visibility into every active MCP connection

Less clutter, better visibility, and a smoother experience when working with MCP servers.

A smoother workflow editor

We focused heavily on eliminating the kinds of issues that interrupt your flow.

This release fixes editor freezes, improves layout behavior, and makes the workflow builder more resilient when dealing with invalid expressions, duplicate node names, and stale components.

Combined with dozens of UI refinements, the result is an editor that feels faster, more stable, and more predictable.

Additional Improvements

  • New integrations: Zenrows, Attio, and WordPress
  • Faster Knowledge Base loading with lazy-loaded document chunks
  • More reliable MCP connections and timeout handling
  • Better approval workflows and workflow inputs
  • SDK and embedded experience improvements
  • Google Mail connection fixes
  • Multi-tenant, performance, and reliability improvements across the platform
v0.30

The Workflow Builder Update

This release focuses on improving the workflow building experience with long-awaited editor improvements, a new PagerDuty connector, and a number of performance and stability fixes across the platform.

Workflow Builder Improvements

Undo & Redo

Mistakes happen. Now they're one click away from disappearing. Undo and redo support is now available throughout the workflow editor.

Faster editing

Building workflows is now smoother with:

  • Cut nodes directly from the editor
  • Improved node context menu
  • Cleaner node hover states
  • "See Executions" shortcut for Subflow executions
  • Fixed ComboBox layering issues

AI Improvements & PagerDuty

  • Knowledge Base improvements
  • Cleaner AI Skill creation experience
  • Updated AI Providers page

PagerDuty

Respond to incidents and automate operational workflows with the new PagerDuty integration.

Also included

  • Read File as Bytes action
  • Connector improvements for Zendesk, Ollama, Snowflake and MailerLite

Faster & More Reliable

This release also improves platform stability, including:

  • Fixed execution details freezing on large outputs
  • Better handling of connectionless nodes
  • OAuth connection improvements
  • Trigger form fixes
  • Scheduler reliability improvements
v0.29

Introducing the AI Agent, a major expansion of the connector library, and more.

v0.29 is the biggest release yet: introducing the AI Agent, a major expansion of the connector library, and AI skill management now available in the Community Edition.

Introducing the AI Agent

The AI Agent is a new workflow node that lets you configure a fully custom AI agent from scratch - with both a Simple and Advanced mode.

Each agent is built from four building blocks you assemble directly in the workflow editor: a model, memory, a knowledge base, and tools. You choose the LLM, connect your integrations as callable tools, and write a system prompt that defines how the agent behaves.

The result is a deployable agent that reasons, retrieves, and acts - without any custom backend code.
