July 2026 Changelog

July is the month the SEO Workspace landed. It puts the whole job in one place: scan the site, sync Search Console, build topic clusters, plan the pages, write the drafts, with the agent chat sitting next to the work instead of in another tab.

The rest of July went into the parts you touch all day. The chat, the document editor, the link graph, and keyword imports all changed. Here is what is different and what it saves you.

Read this if you

Work in the SEO Workspace.
Use the agent chat to plan pages or write drafts.
Import Search Console data or your own keyword lists.
Publish to WordPress out of SCM.
Leave jobs running in the main app and hit the odd stuck state.

The SEO Workspace opened up

One project now holds the site scan, the Search Console history, the clusters, the page plan and the drafts. You stop copying things between screens to keep a picture of what to work on next.

Pages you generate open as draft documents you can edit on the spot. No hunting for an output file, and a page run happens once, so re-running does not stack duplicates behind you.
Export now sends the whole workspace, not just the task, as a single .project.zip. Move it to another machine or hand it to a client, and importing it gives the copy its own name instead of writing over what you already have.
Site scan setup is shorter, and stopping a scan halfway keeps the pages it already read. You do not start from zero.
When a scan finishes, the AI review tells you which pages look worth refreshing instead of handing you a list to sort by eye.
Paste your own keyword list into chat and it imports from there. No file dialog, no leaving the conversation.

The chat stopped fighting you

Most of these are small on paper and loud in daily use. Typing that vanished, titles that renamed themselves, a token count that looked like a bill you did not expect.

Type while the agent is still answering. Your message queues and sends when it finishes, instead of going nowhere.
Each thinking step shows how long it ran, like Thought for 12s, so you can tell working from stuck.
Failed tool calls fold away behind a show work toggle. Open it when you care, ignore it when you do not.
Slash commands run when you press Enter, and the popup filters as you type.
The new /compact command trims a long chat down when it gets heavy, and keeps the thread going.
Chat titles come from what you typed, never from the reply, and a title you rename by hand stays that way.
The token line under a reply splits new tokens from cached ones, and repeat turns reuse the cached prompt. A long chat costs less than the old single number made it look.
Chat history has a New session button above the search box, the panel comes back at the width you left it, and reloading the workspace reopens your last chat.
Gemini joined the chat with thinking and tool calls. The OpenAI picker lists live models and hides the settings a thinking model ignores.
Search Console property and date range now stick per chat, so setting up one chat no longer changes another.

The agent can reach real things now

The agent stopped being a chat box that only writes. It reads your project, your disk and the web, and it can hand work off to a background job.

It reads the link graph, so you can ask which pages point where and get an answer from your actual graph.
It searches local files with ripgrep, opens a URL and gets clean readable HTML back including the images, and edits documents with real find and replace.
It can call any web API, save a working script to a scratchpad, then run that same script again later instead of rebuilding it.
Ask it for local listings and it runs the Google Maps search as a background job, then pings you when results land. You keep working meanwhile.
It keeps its own memory notes, so what it learned about the project is still there next session.
Ask for cleanup and it knows what you mean, undo all included, and it checks with you before acting on a big selection.
It talks about pages and the tabs you can see, not internal rows, and an empty project gets told it has no pages yet rather than claiming the project is not open.

Drafts became documents

Generated copy no longer lands somewhere you have to go and open. It arrives as a document with an editor around it.

The editor handles WordPress code and quote blocks, images carry an alt text bubble you can edit in place, and text width is capped so long copy stays readable.
Keep all accepts every AI edit in a document in one click.
The notes card remembers whether you left it open, and comments keep their space on a narrow window.
The original view shows formatted content instead of raw HTML.
Ask for a refresh and you get updated page copy back, not an audit report about the page.
Drafts check they are on the right page before adding links, and Search Console numbers stay out of the article copy.

A link graph you can rearrange

The site plan and the link graph are now two views of the same work, and both are editable.

The link graph tab shows how pages connect, grouped into hubs, with the source each topic came from, Reddit included.
Pages that are not placed yet wait in a side panel until you drag them in.
The AI proposes graph changes for you to approve, and the proposal card says what Accept will do before you click it.
Undo toasts stack, so a run of deletes can be walked back one step at a time.
Plan membership is separate from page status now. Marking pages planned adds them to the plan, and setting a page to skip no longer drops it out of the plan.
The selection toolbar sets status on many pages at once.
The outline reads as pills with status dots, colors follow the workflow stage, and you can drag the panel wider.
The graph keeps its shape when you skip pages or re-ingest data.

Keyword and Search Console imports you can trust

Import problems are the quiet kind. Nothing errors, you just end up with two pages fighting over one keyword.

One keyword, one page. Imports stop spawning competing pages for the same term.
Import history shows which pages an import added and which it updated, and keyword cleanup appears as its own entry instead of hiding inside a Search Console update.
An update button pulls fresh Search Console data without walking through setup again.
The date label covers every day you have synced, not just the last sync, so the numbers say what period they cover.
Local SEO hub pages carry served cities as supporting topics, and those survive the keyword ownership sweep.
Reddit research counts unique posts, scrolls faster, and feeds the cluster tree consistent lowercase seeds.

Main app fixes worth knowing

SCM starts on machines with no graphics card.
A corrupt database gives you an error you can act on instead of a blank window.
Find and replace rules reach AI titles and meta descriptions, not only the article body.
The WordPress test button sends your login and reports the real failure, and AI connection errors name the endpoint that broke.
New jobs start in %project_folder% every time.
Deleted jobs stay deleted, renaming a job with no saved data no longer crashes, and group filters still work when your group names are numbers.
Stuck pipeline pages can be re-created, adopting the unrun task with its settings intact.
Light theme got readable tables, warning borders and selection colors.
