2026-08-03-agent-zero-ships-a-stop-control

Agent Zero v2.8 (2026-08-01, stable) ships a stop button and a /stop API that cancels a running agent context without deleting it, reachable programmatically. Most authority work this publication records constrains an agent before it acts; this is the ability to stop one that already is, in a tagged release and available to a supervising process rather than only a human at a keyboard. v2.7 (2026-07-27) adds project-scoped HTTP and SOCKS proxy settings for the internal Docker browser, with bypass rules and optional authentication, passed through Playwright's native proxy option. Channel: tagged-release. Version note: the line moved from v1.20 to v2.x on 2026-06-26 and has tagged eight times since.
