v0.27.0 (Alpha)

· 2 min read

Welcome to v0.27.0. This update marks a major milestone with the introduction of Agentic Runtime Actors, enabling AI-driven workflows, alongside significant CLI quality-of-life improvements and a long-awaited theme update for Paracord.


🤖 Agentic Runtime (v1.0.0)

The headline of this release is the debut of Agentic Actors. Unlike traditional actors that follow rigid code paths, these actors are powered by AI models.

  • Natural Language Processing: These actors receive and respond to requests in plain English (or your preferred human language), allowing for more flexible and intuitive system interactions.
  • Learn More: We’ve added docs on how these work in the core_concepts section of our documentation under Agentic Actors.

🛠️ Para Netflow & CLI Enhancements

We are making it easier to see what’s happening "under the hood" without needing to manually inspect Docker containers.

Netflow Commands

  • para netflow goals: Launch a runtime web socket to view your live goal trees.
  • para netflow logs: A consolidated stream of runtime logging (Error, Warning, Info). This aggregates Paraflow logs into a single view, saving you from hunting through container logs.

Para Catalog

New lifecycle commands are now available for catalog management, essential for agentic actors:

  • para catalog create
  • para catalog update

🎨 Paracord (v0.17.0)

Your eyes can finally rest—Dark Mode has arrived.

  • How to toggle: Click on your User Icon in the navigation bar to switch between Light and Dark themes instantly.

💻 Paralogue (v0.20.1)

  • ARM64 Support: Paralogue now officially supports ARM64 architecture.
  • Note: Paralogue is still in early testing phases. Expect more detailed documentation to follow as it stabilizes.

📚 Documentation Restructure

We’ve completely reorganized our docs to better align with the actual developer journey. Based on feedback from our Alpha users, we’ve moved away from "feature-dumping" and toward a logic-driven flow:

  • Getting Started: Your entry point. Includes Intro, Installation, and Learning Requirements.
  • Kits: We’ve prioritized Starter Kits as launchpads.
    • New: Check out the hello_federation kit for a beginner-friendly lesson on multi-node development.
  • Core Concepts: The pillars of the Para ecosystem—Paranet, Federation, Agentic Actors, and Schemas.
  • Tooling: A dedicated home for the CLI, Paracord, and future developer tools.
  • Language: Where Paraflow syntax and our various SDKs live.

Coming Soon: We are currently consolidating common pain points to build a comprehensive Troubleshooting section.
