Versions

Toutes les versions de l'application FlowLeap, de la plus récente à la plus ancienne.

  1. v0.8.0

    Dernière12 octobre 2026

    Added

    • **Patent AI in Agents Window Claude sessions.** A Claude session in the Agents
    • Window now gets a "Patent Data" tool set with every patent tool, including
    • `search_npl` and `get_npl_work`, and a **Patent AI** agent in the agent picker. The
    • agent file (`patent-ai.agent.md`) is generated from the editor Patent AI prompt. It
    • uses the tool names that Claude sees (`mcp__client__*`) and tells Claude to get
    • patent data only from these tools, not from other patent MCP servers. The tools use
    • your EPO and USPTO keys from FlowLeap Settings. The editor Patent Agent chat is
    • unchanged. (#609, #612, #613)
    • **Non-patent literature search with OpenAlex.** The new `search_npl` tool searches
    • more than 250 million works. It filters by year range, open access and publication
    • type, and shows the date, venue, DOI, citation count, abstract and open-access link
    • for each result. The Patent Agent now uses it first for literature, then
    • `search_academic` as a second pass. (#607)
    • **Examiner-cited papers resolved.** The new `get_npl_work` tool resolves one cited
    • paper, from the citation string or a DOI, to its OpenAlex record. `get_patent_details`
    • with `resolveNpl` resolves every cited paper of a patent at once. Only a matched
    • record is shown as the cited paper; other hits are shown as possible matches. (#611)
    • **Semantic Scholar key in FlowLeap Settings.** An optional third card stores your own
    • Semantic Scholar API key. Academic search then uses your key's rate limit, not the
    • shared public limit. (#610)
    • **Your own links in the Browser launcher.** A new **My links** section at the top of
    • the Browser view holds links that you add with **+ Add link** (name optional, URL
    • required). Remove a link with ×. The Unified Patent Court section also has a link to
    • the UPC Opt-out Registry. (#618, #620)
    • **Prior art on a patent** in the Prompts view: a prior-art search on a publication
    • number, with a recall check against the documents the examiners cited. The "Read a
    • claim properly" prompt now takes a publication number. (#615)

    Changed

    • `search_academic` names its real sources (Semantic Scholar and arXiv), takes a year
    • filter, and shows one status line per source, for example when a source is rate
    • limited. (#608)
    • The `sep-declarations` skill counts ETSI SEP declarations from the ETSI views on the
    • PATSTAT server first. The download of the ETSI export is now only a fallback. (#606)
    • The prior-art and Find Better skills search with classification codes and citations
    • as well as keywords, read each result set in full, and report how many of the
    • examiner-cited documents the search found, with a reason for each miss. (#616)
    • Agents Window skills re-vendored at flowleap-cli v0.11.1: the NPL recall rules,
    • `npl-work` and `biblio --resolve-npl` in the flowleap-patent and flowleap-npl skills.
    • (cli#141, cli#145)
    • In Patent IDE mode, the Changes view in the Agents Window no longer offers pull
    • request, merge or checkout actions. Commit, Sync and Discard stay. Developer mode is
    • unchanged. (#614)
    • `get_patent_details`: when a full-text section comes from another document than the
    • one requested (for example, WO text for a Euro-PCT EP publication) or is not in
    • English, the section now says which document and which language it is. (#621)

  2. v0.7.0

    11 octobre 2026

    Added

    • **Application Drafting.** The Patent Agent drafts a full patent application for the
    • US or the EPO from an invention disclosure. Each matter lives in
    • `drafting/<matter>/`: a feature list and a figures list that you confirm, the claims
    • that you approve, and `draft-application.md`. Every paragraph names its source, and
    • every technical gap becomes an Inventor Question. Code checks the draft (antecedent
    • basis, claim dependencies and numbering, reference numerals, abstract length,
    • literal basis) and writes `findings.md`. Export to Word is blocked while an Error is
    • not waived or an Inventor Question is open. Start it from the new Application
    • Drafting card on the home dashboard. (#562)
    • **Filing formalities for drafts.** Inventor Questions get an answer slot in
    • `inventor-answers.md`, and `checklist.md` names your next step after each drafting
    • step. Export writes separate description, claims and abstract .docx files in the
    • office page layout (Rule 49 EPC, A4 with line numbers; 37 CFR 1.52, Letter), a full
    • review copy, and `filing-manifest.md` with the claim count, estimated pages,
    • drawing sheets and a proposed abstract figure. New checks: one sentence per claim,
    • EPC Rules 43(6), 43(7) and 47(4), and an estimated page count over 35. (#582)
    • **Unified Patent Court: filing preparation and case navigation.** Three new skills:
    • `upc-filing-prep` gives a checklist and a go / not-ready verdict for a filing and
    • stops at the court portal; `upc-case-navigator` lists the next filings for a case,
    • with the side that files, the rule, the period and the trigger, but never a calendar
    • date; `upc-representative-start` covers registration and first steps. The skills
    • include reference files for the seven filing families and the 2026 court fee table.
    • (#576, #581, #584)
    • **UPC seed prompts in the Prompts view:** UPC: which division, UPC: opt-out check,
    • UPC: what to file next, UPC: prepare a filing, UPC: court fee, UPC: register as
    • representative. (#583, #584)
    • **Unified Patent Court links in the integrated browser.** A new section in the
    • Browser launcher opens the UPC CMS Front Office and the UPC CMS Portfolio. (#587)
    • **Mistral as a model provider.** Mistral is now in Manage Models with its own API
    • key field, beside Anthropic, OpenAI and the others. Before, it was available only
    • through a Custom Endpoint. Use a paid Mistral key: the free tier is refused. (#555)
    • **The `.flowleap/` folder.** FlowLeap reads skills, instructions, prompts and agents
    • from `.flowleap/` in the workspace and from `~/.flowleap/` for your own files. It has
    • the same layout as `.github/`: `skills/<name>/SKILL.md`,
    • `instructions/*.instructions.md`, `prompts/*.prompt.md`, `agents/*.agent.md`, and
    • `.flowleap/instructions.md` for instructions that apply to every request. The New
    • Skill, Prompt, Instructions and Agent commands now create the file in `.flowleap/`.
    • `.flowleap/` wins over `.github/` and `.claude/`. A built-in skill wins over your
    • skill with the same name; to add firm steps to a built-in workflow, use an
    • instructions file with `applyTo: "**"`. (#579)
    • **Your profile picture as the account avatar.** The Accounts icon in the activity
    • bar and the Agents Window title bar show the profile picture of your FlowLeap
    • account. Without a picture, the default icon stays. (#586)

    Changed

    • **Markdown files open in the Markdown Editor.** A `.md` file now opens rendered and
    • ready to edit in place, not as a read-only preview. Reopen With still gives the
    • source text. (#563)
    • **HTML files open rendered.** A single click on an `.html` or `.htm` file in the
    • Explorer opens the rendered page in the editor. It reloads when the file changes.
    • Open HTML Source in the editor title bar shows the source. (#554)
    • **Hosted Workspace: one sign-in.** The sign-in at the workspace gate now also signs in
    • the Patent Agent sidebar. The sidebar no longer asks for a second sign-in. (#548, #592)
    • Hosted Workspace: the server package now bundles the FlowLeap CLI version that the app
    • vendors its skills from (`scripts/skills-drift-manifest.json`), not a fixed v0.9.1.
    • (#599, #600)
    • Hosted Workspace: new `update.sh` and `reset.sh` scripts. An update checks the
    • package hash, keeps the previous package and rolls back if the server does not
    • start; it does not touch user data. A reset clears one workspace for the next
    • user. The nginx gate now resolves the backend at run time. (#588)
    • HTML reports and dashboards: the agent now builds charts with Chart.js from the pinned
    • jsDelivr CDN (data stays inline in one file) instead of hand-built inline SVG. Inline SVG
    • is reserved for graphics the user wants offline or editable. (#601)
    • Unified Patent Court skills: `upc-rop-explainer` gave wrong meanings for 13 Rules of
    • Procedure and missed some periods; they are corrected against the official
    • consolidated text. `upc-opt-out-actions`, `upc-opt-out-check` and
    • `upc-division-router` are corrected too. (#567, #576)

    Fixed

    • The status popup and status bar said "Sign in to use FlowLeap AI features" when you
    • were signed in to FlowLeap. Sign-in buttons opened the GitHub setup dialog; they
    • now open FlowLeap sign-in. The Accounts menu showed the FlowLeap account twice.
    • (#585)
    • Hosted Workspace: Install on an MCP server in the gallery showed "Not supported". The
    • browser cannot run a server, so the install now goes to the server: the server is added
    • to the remote user `mcp.json` and starts there. "Install in Workspace" is unchanged.
    • (#593, #598)
    • Hosted and web client: a source anchor in a saved report, such as
    • `US6265989B1:claims:1:en`, did nothing when clicked in the Markdown preview. It now
    • opens the patent reader at the claim or passage, after the same "Allow ... to open
    • this URI?" question as on desktop. (#549, #591)
    • An HTML file that loads a chart library from a common CDN (cdn.jsdelivr.net, unpkg.com,
    • cdnjs.cloudflare.com, Google Fonts) now renders in the editor. The page still cannot
    • send network requests. The Patent Agent tells you that the file opens rendered in the
    • editor, not "open it in a browser". (#589, #597)

  3. v0.6.0

    6 octobre 2026

    Added

    • **Find Better: post-grant prior-art discovery.** Start from a granted patent. The
    • Examiner Baseline collects every document each office cited across the family,
    • computed from the offices' own records, with missing records shown as gaps. Three
    • expansion tracks then search beyond it: backward citations two hops deep, inventor
    • and author networks, and classification combined with the claim's discriminating
    • terms, with a term-drop pass and title-phrase queries for old art. The report shows,
    • per independent claim, the examiner's best art beside the best art found as
    • disclosed-element counts, names only the documents that were scored, and says
    • "search incomplete" when a track did not run. (#510, #513, #530, #534, #541)
    • **Search Statement.** A claim becomes a concept table and a Boolean search
    • statement with a copy button and an "Open in Espacenet" link, and a warning when
    • the statement has no discriminating term. (#512)
    • **Three prompts in the Prompts view:** Find Better, Search Statement, Examiner
    • Baseline. (#525)
    • **FlowLeap: Preview HTML File.** Opens a generated dashboard or any single-file
    • HTML page in a preview panel. (#536)

    Changed

    • Bundled CLI skills updated to flowleap-cli v0.10.0 (Find Better recipe, Search
    • Statement reference). (#551)
    • Examiner-cited references without an X or Y category now count as examiner art,
    • so US-origin patents can be analysed. (#534)
    • The second read retries once on a network error and asks for at most two re-saves
    • while objections stay open. (#541)

    Fixed

    • Priority dates were printed as "[object Object]" in patent details, summaries and
    • comparisons. (#524)
    • Hosted and web client: the patent tools were not offered to the chat; settings,
    • sign-in, model keys and chat history are now kept on the server (#545, #547);
    • webviews such as the Markdown preview were blank; the sign-in landing page was
    • branded as Visual Studio Code; the integrated browser is hidden where it cannot
    • run (#536); the server extension host crashed on start (#521).

  4. v0.5.1

    5 octobre 2026

    Fixed

    • Agent Sessions could not start in the packaged 0.5.0 build (missing agent
    • host entry).
    Voir sur GitHub
  5. v0.5.0

    5 octobre 2026

    Added

    • **Agent sessions run in a dedicated agent host.** Claude sessions in the
    • Agents Window now run in their own process, the same way upstream VS Code
    • runs them. You get several chats in one session (New Chat in This Session),
    • forking a chat, a side chat, renaming and deleting sessions, and quick chats.
    • **Your existing Claude Code sessions appear in the Agents Window.** Sessions
    • you started from the Claude CLI in a terminal are listed under External and
    • can be resumed there.
    • **The Claude agent SDK downloads once, on first use.** The first Claude
    • session after installing or updating fetches about 100 MB from the FlowLeap
    • release page, then works offline. Sessions still sign in with your own
    • claude.ai account or Anthropic key, never through FlowLeap.

    Changed

    • **Updated to the VS Code 1.140 baseline.** The whole editor and the Agents
    • Window are now on upstream's September 2026 code, so upstream fixes and
    • features arrive as they ship.
    • **New sessions ask before editing.** The permission mode for a new Claude
    • session starts as "Ask Before Edits". Auto and Bypass are still in the
    • picker.
    • **Session logs keep no content.** The agent host's diagnostic logs record
    • ids, timings and tool names only. Your prompts, model replies, tool output
    • and file contents are never written to them unless you switch on a developer
    • setting, and the debug-log export tells you when that setting is on.
    • **The composer speaks patent.** After a session starts, the input suggests a
    • patent research task instead of a generic chat prompt, and the recommended
    • model for a new session is Sonnet.

    Fixed

    • **OCR was failing for everyone with a sign-in message.** The document-AI key
    • on the FlowLeap backend had expired. It is rotated, and a follow-up stops a
    • backend provider error from ever looking like a sign-in problem.
    • **The Mermaid preview logged an error at every launch.** It now enables the
    • API proposal it needs.

  6. v0.4.0

    24 septembre 2026

    Added

    • **FlowLeap now runs on Windows on ARM.** Every release ships a system
    • installer, a per-user installer and a `.zip` for arm64 machines, next to the
    • x64 ones. Pick the installer that matches your processor on the download page.
    • **FlowLeap now runs on Linux.** Every release ships a `.deb`, a `.rpm` and a
    • `.tar.gz` for both Intel/AMD (x64) and ARM (arm64) machines. Install with
    • `sudo apt install ./FlowLeap-*.deb` or `sudo dnf install ./FlowLeap-*.rpm`, or
    • extract the `.tar.gz` and run `flowleap` from it. The packages are built
    • against glibc 2.35, so they need Ubuntu 22.04 or later, Debian 12 or later,
    • Fedora 36 or later, or an equivalent distribution. Linux has no background
    • updater yet: FlowLeap tells you when a new version is out and you install it
    • the same way.
    • **Patent links in a Markdown report render as pills.** A publication number or
    • a patent URL in an open report shows the title, the applicant and the latest
    • legal-status events in place, without leaving the editor.
    • **EP designated contracting states.** Legal-status answers for European
    • patents now list the designated and extension states, and the per-event state
    • lists are no longer dropped from the tables.
    • **OpenRouter from the EU.** A new setting, `patent.openRouter.dataRegion`,
    • sends your own OpenRouter key to `eu.openrouter.ai`. Keys whose workspace
    • guardrail is limited to Europe now work.
    • **A decision trail beside a patent deliverable.** Every graded deliverable
    • now writes an investigation record that names the cutoff, the jurisdictions,
    • the references dropped and why.
    • **Prior-art reviews save two documents.** The client report and a working
    • record now come from the same review, so the search strategy and the
    • concepts and classifications searched reach the reader.
    • **First launch opens on the three first runs.** A new First Runs tab shows
    • the same three starting tasks as the welcome page and the trial email.
    • **Opt-in activation counters.** FlowLeap asks once whether it may send four
    • content-free counters (app launched, skill run completed, report saved, keys
    • added). Never a file, a query, a matter or model output.

    Changed

    • **Markdown editor updated to the VS Code 1.139 baseline**, together with
    • the agent sessions window: compact session list, inline rename with F2,
    • per-row progress and a Diff View submenu in the editor overflow.
    • **Skills read the drawings first.** A structural feature is no longer marked
    • unresolved before the figures have been read, and a search names the feature
    • it tests.

    Security

    • Ten upstream fixes from VS Code 1.136.2 to 1.139 applied, including wildcard
    • IP patterns in the network filter (CVE-2026-81379), terminal auto-approval
    • holes, MCP workspace trust, and apply-patch move-destination validation.

    Fixed

    • **BYOK through OpenRouter** now retries without Anthropic beta headers when a
    • provider rejects them, and recognises vendor-prefixed Claude ids in the tool
    • search and context-editing gates.
    • **The `patent.secondReadModel` setting is now read.** Its old dotted name,
    • `patent.secondRead.model`, was dropped by the configuration layer.
    • **The family tool reads the family it promises**, and the graph tool surfaces
    • citable publication numbers.

  7. v0.3.1

    3 septembre 2026

    Fixed

    • **Exporting a Markdown file no longer silently overwrites a patent PDF.**
    • Exporting `EP1234567.md` wrote `EP1234567.pdf` straight over a patent PDF you
    • had downloaded under the same name, with no warning. FlowLeap now asks first
    • when the target was not produced by the export itself, offering Overwrite or
    • a safe `name.export.pdf` alternative. Repeat exports of your own file stay
    • silent, so convert-on-save is unaffected. A folder whose name contains `.md`
    • is also no longer mangled in the output name.
    • **Chat now names the way out when no AI model is connected.** Signed out with
    • no key of your own, sending a message failed with a bare "Language model
    • unavailable" that pointed nowhere. Chat now offers **Sign In** and **Add Your
    • AI Model** before the send, keeps the text you typed, and carries the same
    • links in the welcome view and the model picker.
    Voir sur GitHub
  8. v0.3.0

    3 septembre 2026

    Automatic updates on macOS

    • FlowLeap now updates itself. A new version downloads quietly in the
    • background and installs when you next restart the app — no trip to the
    • download page, no manual reinstall. You are never relaunched uninvited: the
    • app shows a passive "Restart to Update" affordance and waits for you.
    • Automatic downloads are deferred on metered connections, and the whole
    • behaviour can be turned off in settings.
    • Windows still uses the older notification: a toast tells you a new version
    • exists and the Download button opens the download page.

    FlowLeap Trial models

    • New accounts can start using the patent agent immediately, with no model
    • provider key and no card. Trial models appear in the model picker for the
    • duration of the trial, with the remaining budget and time visible in chat.
    • Your own key always wins. If you have added an OpenRouter or Anthropic key,
    • FlowLeap keeps using it and leaves the trial alone.
    • When the trial's data budget runs low or runs out, the agent says so plainly
    • and tells you what to do next, instead of failing mid-answer.
    • Signing out pauses the trial models and says so, rather than telling you to
    • add your own key.
    • Onboarding now offers a subscription directly instead of a card-gated trial.

    Home and navigation

    • A **Dashboard** view in the activity bar — recent projects, new-project and
    • browse-files quick links, and a jump to your installed Skills.
    • A **Browser** launcher in the activity bar, for opening patent databases and
    • research sites beside your work.

    Chat

    • **Find in chat** — `Ctrl+F` / `Cmd+F` searches a chat pane or chat editor and
    • steps through matches newest-first.
    • **Timestamps and token counts** — each completed response shows when it ran,
    • how long it took, and the tokens it used, per model.
    • **Prompt-cache warning** — changing model or options mid-session breaks the
    • prompt cache and costs you money; the model picker now warns before it
    • happens.
    • Images and PDFs you paste, drag, or attach behave consistently across the
    • chat panel, inline chat, and the Agents window: previews survive a reload,
    • the same image is not shown twice for different tool calls, and attachments
    • can be referenced inline.
    • **Files from Disk…** added to the Add Context picker.
    • The transcript stays where you put it — sticky scroll follows the last real
    • turn, scroll position is kept between sessions, and switching sessions no
    • longer makes the view jump.
    • Text typed while a session is still loading is no longer discarded, editing a
    • request keeps its symbol references, and both Start Over and discarding an
    • edited request now ask first.
    • Thinking and tool-call rendering cleaned up: headers render as markdown and
    • stop overflowing, tool calls no longer jump while streaming or get stuck
    • inside a thinking block, and a non-terminal tool failure no longer expands
    • itself.
    • Copying chat output into other applications keeps its formatting.
    • Dirty editors are saved before a message is sent, so the agent reads what you
    • actually see.

    Agents window

    • Reopen the last closed chat or session with `Cmd+Shift+T`, close chat tabs
    • with a middle click, and navigate with the mouse's back and forward buttons.
    • Sessions can be renamed from the list, and a session's OS notification tells
    • you when it finished while you were elsewhere.
    • The Changes view now settles for folders that are not git repositories, and
    • worktree and branch options are hidden when the folder has no usable
    • repository.
    • Worktree creation is serialized per repository and retries on a path
    • collision, so two sessions starting at once no longer clash.

    Patent work

    • **Figures can be saved to your workspace.** `get_patent_figures` previously
    • could only show images inline; it now writes them to a directory you choose.
    • **Honest search counts.** A filtered search reports how many results were
    • actually filtered and echoes the query it really ran, instead of quoting a
    • raw total that does not match the rows.
    • **EPO backpressure is waited out** rather than reported as a failure, so a
    • busy EPO no longer ends a search early.
    • The agent cites its sources and quotes them accurately, keeps tool names and
    • its own internal rules out of its answers, and makes list counts match the
    • rows it actually shows.
    • A `notes.md` in your project is now read as your standing instructions, not
    • as evidence about a patent. `CLAUDE.md` instructions are off by default.
    • Bundled skills updated to FlowLeap CLI v0.8.5.

    Fixed

    • **PDF attachments now reach the model** when you are using your own
    • OpenRouter or Anthropic key. Attaching a PDF to a chat message previously
    • did nothing on those paths.
    • Re-clicking **Sign In** while a sign-in is already in flight re-opens the
    • browser instead of doing nothing.
    • Chat Debug and Context Inspector no longer appear for new users.
    • Terminal, editor, search, notebook, settings, source-control and extension
    • views all had memory leaks that grew over a long session; a large batch of
    • upstream leak fixes has been taken.
    • Resizing panes, switching sidebars and scrolling long chat transcripts are
    • measurably faster — layout work that ran while views were hidden or offscreen
    • no longer runs at all.
    • Terminal buffer-mark navigation no longer hangs, and a resize during disposal
    • no longer throws.
    • MCP servers: an explicit empty token scope no longer causes a sign-in loop,
    • parse errors are readable instead of `[object Object]`, and a workspace MCP
    • config nested under settings is recognized.

    Security

    • Taken the upstream security hardening for this cycle: fetch-tool approval
    • bypasses, skill-name escaping, chat-session import path traversal, a
    • loopback XSS, trusted-domain parsing, stale secret handling, workspace-trust
    • gaps, and origin validation for the web-worker extension host.

    Under the hood

    • Rebased onto VS Code 1.135 (from 1.127), bringing the above upstream fixes
    • and the current Electron.

  9. v0.2.3

    14 août 2026

    Fixed

    • A missing USPTO key now opens the key setup directly instead of a generic "service unavailable".
    • The patent-data keys page now says the keys are free and explains that server keys cover the trial while paid plans use your own.
    • One canonical USPTO signup link.
    • Bundled skills updated to the CLI v0.8.1 contract.

  10. v0.2.2

    14 août 2026

    Changed

    • Patent data now runs on FlowLeap's unified tools API. Versions before v0.2.2 can no longer search patents — please update.
    • The in-app patent API guides now come from the live backend catalog, so new capabilities appear without an app update.

    Fixed

    • Testing your EPO/USPTO patent-data keys now gives a clear per-provider verdict, and the key setup explains that the keys are free.
    • PDF text extraction (OCR) uses the same robust backend connection as everything else, with clearer guidance when sign-in or a trial is needed.
    • Windows installers are now code-signed.
    Voir sur GitHub
  11. v0.2.1

    9 août 2026

    Fixed

    • A rejected model-provider API key now says so. Chat previously ended the turn
    • with the provider's own wording — OpenRouter answers an unrecognised key with
    • "User not found." — followed by a stack trace, which read as though your
    • FlowLeap account were missing rather than your key being wrong. The message
    • now names the provider, tells you to check the key, and links Manage Models,
    • keeping the provider's text as a supporting detail. A key that never reached
    • the provider is reported differently from one that was refused.

    Patent analytics over PATSTAT

    • **Portfolio analytics** — aggregate a named applicant's filings by CPC/IPC
    • class, office, year, family, and grant status, with harmonized entity
    • resolution. Every figure carries its PATSTAT Data Edition.
    • **Guarded SQL** — write read-only `SELECT` queries against the `flowleap.*`
    • semantic views for landscapes, grant rates, citation impact, and inventor
    • analytics that the typed commands do not cover.
    • **Graph analytics** — six graph operations over the worldwide DOCDB citation
    • network: who cites a patent (examiner versus applicant origin), citation and
    • family paths between two patents, family coverage, and an applicant's
    • co-applicant network. Every edge is tagged with a confidence level and a
    • PATSTAT row reference.
    • The agent now routes between keyword analytics, structured aggregation, and
    • graph traversal on the shape of the question rather than its wording.

    Provider-key handling

    • The agent knows which patent-provider keys are connected and adapts instead
    • of stalling: it does the work that needs no key, tells you exactly which key
    • a blocked step wants, and resumes that step once you connect it.
    • Key state is shown in the chat surface, so a missing EPO OPS or USPTO ODP
    • credential is visible before a search fails.

    Bundled skills

    • Updated to FlowLeap CLI v0.6.0 — refreshed provider-key setup guidance,
    • authentication states, and search recipes.
    • Added the `flowleap-patstat-graph` skill for the new graph analytics.

    Fixed

    • Chat output panels no longer go blank when a streamed response re-renders.
    • A patent lookup by number no longer drops its only matching record.
    • An empty result set now reports that it is empty instead of reporting a
    • size overrun, and a large result that is trimmed says so plainly.
    • Class-based landscape questions route to portfolio analytics instead of
    • free-text search.
    • The GitHub Copilot walkthrough no longer appears in patent mode.

  13. v0.1.0

    24 juillet 2026
    • First public release of **FlowLeap Patent AI** — an AI patent agent for
    • patent professionals, built on the VS Code platform.

    Patent research agent

    • Chat-driven patent agent with 28 typed tools against the FlowLeap backend:
    • EPO patent search (CQL, with natural-language query building), USPTO Open
    • Data Portal search, applications and continuity chains, file-wrapper and
    • office-action documents, enriched citation data (backward and forward, with
    • X/Y/A relevance tagging), patent-law reference search (MPEP, EPC, EPO
    • Guidelines), academic and non-patent literature search, claim analysis and
    • comparison, patent details and figures, portfolio analytics, and report
    • writing.
    • 25 bundled patent skills covering the full lifecycle — invention disclosure,
    • prior-art and novelty search, claim drafting and analysis, office-action
    • response, freedom-to-operate, invalidity analysis, infringement charting,
    • patent landscaping, maintenance-fee checks, and formatted patent reports.
    • Project templates for common patent workflows.

    Bring your own key

    • Model access is BYOK: connect your own API key (Anthropic, OpenRouter, and
    • other providers) — prompts and documents go directly from your machine to
    • your model provider.
    • Dedicated settings page for managing model and patent-provider credentials
    • (EPO OPS, USPTO ODP).

    Documents

    • Built-in PDF viewer with OCR text extraction for prior-art documents and
    • office actions.
    • DOCX viewer and Markdown-to-PDF export for work products.

    Platform

    • FlowLeap account sign-in for backend access, with a free tier for patent
    • data.
    • Agent sessions window for long-running, reviewable agent work.
    • macOS builds (Apple Silicon and Intel) are code-signed, notarized, and
    • stapled. Windows installers (system and per-user) are Authenticode-signed.
