While Loop block, multiple schedules per workflow, Google Sheets connector, browser session runs tab

New features

  • While Loop Block — A new workflow block type that repeats a sub-workflow until a condition is met, enabling dynamic iteration without a fixed loop count. (#5809)
  • Multiple Schedules per Workflow — Workflows can now have multiple independent schedules (e.g., run at 9am on weekdays and noon on weekends). (#5799)
  • Google Sheets Connector (Open Source) — The Google Sheets connector authentication flow is now part of the open source package. (#5815)
  • Runs Tab on Browser Session Page — The browser session detail page now includes a Runs tab listing all workflow runs associated with that session. (#5830)
  • Per-Workflow Total Step Cap — A new workflow-run step cap lets you limit the maximum number of agent steps across all blocks in a single run. (#5834)

Improvements

  • TOTP Scoped to Active Credential — Credential-derived TOTP values are now scoped to the active credential, preventing stale tokens from being used mid-run. (#5805)
  • Browser Dialogs Surfaced to Agent — JavaScript dialogs (alerts, confirms, prompts) that the browser blocks are now surfaced to the agent so it can adapt its next action. (#5810)

Bug fixes

  • Fixed the workflow-deleted banner not appearing on the run detail page when the parent workflow has been deleted. (#5800)
Week of April 27, 2026
MCP CLI for schedules and config, copilot hard-cancel, cursor in recordings, artifact URL improvements

New features

  • Workflow Schedule Management via MCP — Manage workflow schedules from MCP clients (e.g., Claude Code) using the new skyvern schedule CLI commands. (#5713)
  • Org Settings via MCP — Configure organization settings from MCP clients using the new skyvern config CLI tool. (#5694)

  • Print-to-PDF in Downloaded Files — Workflow blocks that trigger a browser print-to-PDF now expose the resulting file in the block’s downloaded files list. (#5784)

Improvements

  • Cursor Visualization in Run Recordings — Playwright recordings now overlay a visible cursor, making it easy to follow the agent’s actions when reviewing a recording. (#5683)
  • Short Signed Recording URLs — Browser session recording links are now compact signed URLs instead of full S3 paths. (#5686)
  • Configurable Artifact URL Expiry — A settings field lets you control how long artifact content URLs stay valid before expiring. (#5690)
  • Copilot Hard-Cancel — A hard-cancel button immediately stops an in-progress copilot run without waiting for the current step to finish. (#5726)
  • Copilot Reuses Live Debug Browser Session — When testing a workflow from the debugger, the copilot now reuses the open browser session instead of starting a new one. (#5709)
  • Copilot Surfaces WIP Workflow on Timeout — If the copilot times out or a test fails, it now offers the in-progress workflow so you can review and continue. (#5755)
  • Pre-Filled Debugger Run Dialog — The Run dialog in the workflow debugger now pre-fills with values from your last run. (#5724)

Week of April 20, 2026
Copilot reliability, run recordings, 2FA improvements, and more

Improvements

  • Copilot Live Status Narration — The workflow editor copilot now displays a short live status line while it works, so you can see what the agent is doing instead of waiting in silence. (#5567)
  • Renamed Browser Profile Reset Action — The API endpoint for clearing a persisted browser session has been renamed from /browser_session/refresh to /browser_session/reset_profile for clarity. The old path remains available as a deprecated alias. (#5572)
  • Fewer Screenshots for API Runs — Screenshot capture frequency has been reduced for API-triggered runs, lowering storage overhead on long-running automations without affecting interactive sessions. (#5565)

Bug fixes

  • Fixed the workflow copilot incorrectly proposing a workflow it had just failed to build. The copilot now only surfaces an Accept/Reject panel when the last test actually passed. (#5574)
  • Fixed 2FA entry failing on pages with custom overlay input components where the real input field is hidden. The agent now types digit keys directly when no interactable input exists. (#5568)
Week of April 13, 2026
Saudi Arabia proxy, workflow error mapping, smarter caching, MCP OAuth, AI output summaries, and reliability fixes

New features

  • Saudi Arabia Proxy Location — Added RESIDENTIAL_SA as a proxy geolocation option for automations targeting Saudi Arabian websites.
  • Workflow-Level Error Code Mapping — Workflows now support an error_code_mapping field that all blocks inherit automatically. Block-level mappings still take precedence, giving you a single place to define default error handling without repeating it on every block. (#5506)
  • AI Summarize for Workflow Run Outputs — A magic-wand “Summarize with AI” button now appears next to block and workflow run output sections, generating a plain-language summary of raw JSON output on demand. (#5556)
  • Reset Browser Profile API — A new POST /workflows/{workflow_permanent_id}/browser_session/reset_profile endpoint clears a corrupted persisted browser session so the next run starts from a fresh browser state. (#5544)
  • MCP OAuth for Remote Clients — MCP clients (e.g. Claude Code, Codex) can now complete browser-based OAuth to authenticate with Skyvern without getting stuck in redirect chains. (#5558)
  • OpenClaw MCP Setupskyvern setup openclaw and skyvern mcp switch now support OpenClaw as an MCP client target for both remote and local stdio configurations. (#5536)

Improvements

  • Smarter Extraction Cache Keys — The extraction cache now normalizes session-volatile tokens (random UUIDs, CSRF values, nonce query params, timestamps) before hashing cache keys. Semantically identical page visits now share cached extraction results, improving cache hit rates across workflow re-runs. (#5504)
  • Reduced Rate-Limit Errors on Extraction Prompts — Extraction prompts are now capped in size before being sent to the LLM. Oversized previous_extracted_information, extracted_information_schema, and element trees are truncated rather than sent whole, significantly reducing 429 RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED errors on high-volume workflows. (#5502)
  • Cross-Run Extraction Cache — Extraction results are now cached in Redis across workflow runs, scoped to the workflow. Recurring scheduled workflows skip redundant LLM calls when the page content hasn’t changed. (#5562)
  • Copilot Survives Tab Switches and Reconnects — The workflow copilot agent now runs to completion even if the browser tab is closed or the connection drops mid-request, and the AI reply is persisted so it appears when you reconnect. (#5560)
  • Copilot Fails Fast on Unresolvable URLs — The workflow copilot now immediately surfaces the real error (e.g. DNS resolution failure) and stops retrying when a URL cannot be reached, rather than reporting success. (#5563)

Bug fixes

  • Fixed CSV parsing failing on files whose first header row exceeded ~1 MB, causing valid wide-format CSVs to be rejected with “Could not determine delimiter”. (#5510)
  • Fixed a browser automation crash on sites with cross-origin stylesheets (e.g. MUI-based apps). CSS hover styles are now parsed entirely in memory without modifying the DOM, preventing React reconciliation errors that caused the agent to loop until max steps. (#5508)
  • Fixed context-window overflow failures being misdiagnosed. Steps that fail due to oversized input are now correctly counted and short-circuit to a clear LLM_ERROR failure reason instead of triggering a redundant LLM-based failure analysis. (#5507)
  • Fixed workflow file-download blocks losing their configured download_suffix at task finalization, causing downloaded files to be persisted without the expected filename suffix. (#5499)
  • Fixed cached scripts for non-ATS workflows incorrectly generating fill_form() calls, which defeated the performance benefits of caching by delegating back to AI at runtime. (#5497)
  • Fixed the pagination navigator on the Workflow Past Runs and Run History pages being right-aligned instead of centered.
  • Fixed run recordings missing an end timestamp and broken scrubbing. Recordings are now finalized with a stream-copy remux so players correctly show duration and support seeking. (#5551)
  • Fixed tag input fields (e.g. skill set fields on job application forms) not selecting values from the dropdown. These fields are now correctly treated as auto-completion inputs. (#5557)
  • Fixed per-step video sync spawning a redundant ffmpeg process on every step, causing CPU spikes and log noise. (#5559)
  • Fixed workflow parameter edit and delete buttons being hidden when a parameter name was too long.
  • Fixed webhook delivery failing silently when a stored webhook URL had a leading or trailing space. (#5550)
Week of February 23, 2026
Adaptive caching, Workflow Trigger block, CLI signup, reserved parameters, new LLM models

New features

  • Adaptive Caching (Script Generation) — Skyvern can now learn from repeated workflow runs and generate cached scripts that speed up future executions. When a block runs successfully, Skyvern records a reusable script and replays it on subsequent runs, falling back to the AI agent only if the script fails. (#4908, #4916, #4917, #4920, #4922, #4931)
  • Workflow Trigger Block — A new block type that lets one workflow trigger another from within the workflow editor. Chain workflows together as building blocks for complex automations. (#4885)

  • TOTP Webhook includes workflow_permanent_id — Easier to identify which workflow is requesting a 2FA code. (#4871)
  • Consolidated Gemini 3 Pro Model KeyVERTEX_GEMINI_3_PRO now auto-resolves to the latest version, so you no longer need to update config when Google releases point versions. (#4926)
  • Browser Rotation for Remote Connections — Remote browser environments now support context rotation, improving reliability for long-running automations. (#4929)
  • Workflow save validation (HTTP 422) now returns clear, field-level error messages. (#4852)
  • Browser launch errors now show actionable messages instead of raw exceptions. (#4844)
  • Cloud LLM fallback overrides are now properly applied when selecting models. (#4839)
