Hyper 1.6.0

This is a lighter release focused on stabilization and streamlining after last week’s automations launch. We’ve made automations easier to navigate, expanded what Hyper can do with attached files, and fixed issues affecting Gmail and Anthropic models.

Meanwhile, we’re preparing bigger updates for the next few weeks: cloud computer use, substantially expanded agent capabilities, and interfaces generated inline for the task at hand.

Automations, easier to navigate

Each automation now has one row in the sidebar, keeping its results together instead of mixing individual runs into your normal chat list.

Open an automation to see its latest run. A run list alongside the conversation lets you browse earlier results, newest first, without losing your place. An unread indicator on the automation’s sidebar row helps you spot results you haven’t reviewed yet.

If an automation hasn’t run, you’ll see an overview with its trigger, next run or current status, and a Run now button. Starting a run opens its conversation as soon as it’s created.

Owners can also run, pause, resume, or delete an automation from its sidebar menu. Back and forward navigation preserves the automation view, while tab-switching shortcuts move between its runs. (#586)

Use attached files in connected tools

Hyper could already read files attached to a conversation. Now, supported connector actions can use those original files too.

You can ask Hyper to:

Email this PDF to the customer.

Upload this presentation to Google Drive.

Hyper passes the original attachment to the connector rather than trying to reconstruct it from extracted text. This preserves the file itself, not just the information Hyper read from it.

Initial support covers:

• Gmail: Add attachments to emails and drafts.
• Google Drive: Upload files and supply import metadata.
• Notion: Upload files.
• Jira and Confluence: Add attachments.
• Resend: Attach files to emails.

File actions follow the applicable connector permissions and approval requirements. Hyper checks access to the conversation and validates file counts and sizes before sending.

This is the first stage of broader file support; more connector upload paths are coming. Previously attached Office files need to be reattached when an action requires their original bytes. Existing Confluence connections may also need to reconnect to grant attachment-write permission. (#598)

Other additions and improvements

• Logfire connector: Query logs, traces, and metrics from US-region accounts directly in a conversation. Management actions and browser-session handoffs require approval for each call. EU-region and self-hosted accounts are not included yet. (#588)
• RevenueCat connector: Work with subscription metrics, charts, customer entitlements, and approved subscription-management actions. Both RevenueCat and Logfire use OAuth and work on demand, without background indexing. (#589)
• More self-sufficient information gathering: Improved Hyper’s self-sufficiency in searching for information before asking you for input, including trying alternative queries and consulting connected services. (#595)
• Smoother Gmail use: Fixed a bug with Google rate limits to make working with Gmail smoother. Background synchronization now leaves more capacity for the Gmail actions you request in a conversation. (#593)
• Anthropic reliability: Fixed a bug causing Anthropic models to consistently fail. The change addresses a provider limit affecting tool definitions while preserving Hyper’s server-side checks on tool inputs. (#591)
• Desktop zoom: Use Command/Ctrl + = to zoom in, - to zoom out, and 0 to return to 100%. Zoom resets when the app restarts. (#583)
• Connector approvals: The default approval option for supported connector actions is now Allow always. You still confirm the decision, and actions that require a fresh approval continue to ask each time. (#590)

The search, Gmail, and Anthropic improvements also shipped in 1.5.1 and are included for anyone upgrading from 1.5.0.

Coming next

Over the next few weeks, we’re preparing larger updates across three areas:

• Cloud computer use: Expanding the work Hyper can carry out beyond connected APIs. This week’s groundwork adds command execution through a connected computer. (#570, #571)
• Substantially enhanced agent capabilities: Making Hyper more capable of completing complex, multi-step tasks. The experimental runtime now supports tool execution between model calls and structured conversation history. (#569, #587)
• Inline generated interfaces: Bringing task-specific interfaces directly into the conversation.

We’re also working on broader Google Calendar, Sheets, and Slides editing, including managing calendar events and editing existing spreadsheets and presentations. (#584)

This week’s release makes the current experience smoother while we build toward those larger capabilities.
