Release Notes

Agent Work in Free Mode Use Free Mode to chat, explore ideas, create, and build without using Power Mode or Max Mode credits. Free Mode uses Auto to select a model, and its limits depend on your plan. Check Settings > Usage to see your remaining allowance and reset timing. Learn how to get the most out of Free Mode. Start with Conversations Start with a private Conversation to ask questions, explore information, attach context, run a Routine, or describe an outcome. When the work becomes substantial, ask Replit to turn the Conversation into a Project. Your context and files carry forward. Learn more about Conversations. Automate recurring work with Routines Schedule Replit to repeat work inside a Conversation. Each result returns to the same Conversation, where you can review it and continue working. Routines run in Power Mode or Max Mode and require a budget for each run. Learn more about Routines. Steer Agent while working Send a follow-up while Agent works to add new context to the active turn. Steer is the default in Conversations and Projects, and you can change either preference to Queue in Settings > Personalization. Press Cmd+Enter on Mac or Ctrl+Enter on Windows and Linux to use the opposite behavior for one message. Learn more about steering and queuing messages. Import Skills from GitHub Import Skills from a public GitHub repository, folder, or file URL, then preview the Skill files before you add them. Saved Project Skills also support member access levels of Required, Available, or No access. Learn more about sharing and importing Agent Skills. Teams and Enterprise Control Agent models across Workspaces Enterprise account admins can set an account policy for each model provider, then choose which models are available in individual Workspaces. Use Enable all, Enable selected, or Disabled to match your organization's policy. Learn more about Enterprise model controls. Platform Run black-box pen tests Run a Level 3 security scan to combine three checks. It runs free dependency and package checks, Agent static analysis of your source code, and an external black-box test of the live Preview. Replit runs the source-code review and the outside test in parallel. Learn more about black-box pen tests.
