October 15 2026 Update

The October 15 update fixes replies running out of response tokens and too much of the context window being reserved. It also shows images and code directly in the conversation and lets you add MP4 videos to knowledge bases.

Highlights​

  • Replies no longer run out of response tokens partway through, and less of the context window is reserved, leaving more room for your conversation and documents
  • If an answer still stops early, a message explains why and offers a Retry
  • Charts and images show directly in the conversation, and code can be expanded, opened in a side panel and edited
  • Upload MP4 videos to a knowledge base and ask about what is said in them

Chat​

  • When a reply stops early, a banner explains why: response limit reached, did not complete, or could not be answered. It offers a Retry button, is saved with the conversation and appears in English and German
  • Removed the fixed chat output limit; long answers can use the model's full output capacity
  • Images from code runs and image attachments appear inline. Large or unavailable images fall back to a download, and images stay available for follow-up questions
  • Short code is shown in full; longer code is collapsed with Show all N lines. Any code block can be opened in the side panel and edited there, with Reset and Undo
  • The side panel can be resized by dragging or with the keyboard, and the width is remembered
  • Fixed source links opening a blank tab, bold text sometimes showing asterisks, and new chat titles starting with formatting symbols

Agents and Knowledge Bases​

  • An agent now works as soon as one of its knowledge bases has finished indexing; empty or still-indexing knowledge bases are skipped instead of blocking the agent
  • The chat explains when an agent can't answer yet and links to its Knowledge tab, which marks knowledge bases that aren't indexed
  • MP4 videos up to 100 MiB can be added to knowledge bases; they are transcribed, then indexed
  • Added Word, Excel and PowerPoint templates (.dotx, .xltx, .potx), and a warning when some files couldn't be refreshed before training
  • Fixed deleting knowledge-base documents failing when clean-up was only partly successful

Prompts and Templates​

  • Templates are written in a rich-text editor with headings, lists, links and a source view; pasted Markdown is converted automatically
  • Template cards show their formatting, Copy gives you the prompt as Markdown, and search matches what you see. Tables and task lists are preserved

Files and Spreadsheets​

  • Before analysing a spreadsheet, the assistant opens the original workbook and checks sheet names and row counts, for more reliable answers. This check runs in the code environment, so MCP must be switched on
