Highlights of This Release
1. Batch Execution Support and the Introduction of the Laboratory Interface
A new batch run capability has been added, enabling efficient batch-level execution of tasks and substantially improving scalability for large-scale experiments. Alongside this feature, a Laboratory interface is introduced to provide a more intuitive environment for running batch experiments, comparing configurations, and managing experimental results in research-oriented workflows.
2. Interface Upgrade: Legacy Chat Interface Support and Enhanced Function Calling Stability
Support for the legacy Chat interface has been added to maintain alignment with earlier OpenAI API semantics. Alongside this, multiple function calling issues—such as API call failures, redundant return values, and JSON/JSONL parsing errors—have been fixed, enhancing stability in complex and multi-turn chat scenarios.
3. Other Engineering and Documentation Improvements
Additional updates focus on overall system stability and usability, including:
- Fixes for dynamic configuration issues, parallel image generation errors, and legacy branch linking problems;
- Updates to example configurations (e.g.,
GameDev_v1.yaml) to remain consistent with current functionality;
- Expanded documentation on context window usage and explicit warnings for
--reload in file output tasks;
- Improved troubleshooting guidance in the README for common frontend–backend disconnection issues.

ChatDev 2.0 Release
ChatDev has evolved from a software-development–focused multi-agent framework into a general-purpose multi-agent orchestration platform. This release marks a clear architectural transition: from a domain-specific virtual software company paradigm to a zero-code system for orchestrating intelligent agents across diverse tasks.
ChatDev 2.0 introduces DevAll, a Zero-Code Multi-Agent Platform for “Developing Everything.” It enables users to construct, configure, and execute customized multi-agent systems without writing code, significantly expanding ChatDev’s scope beyond software engineering.
Migration Notes
ChatDev 2.0 is a conceptual generalization of ChatDev 1.0, and the main branch has now been switched to 2.0 (DevAll). Users seeking flexible multi-agent orchestration are encouraged to migrate to this version.
Existing users of ChatDev 1.0 can continue to access the legacy implementation via its branch chatdev1.0.

Important Changes
- ChatDev now updates the OpenAI API and adds support for GPT4-turbo. While we have retained support for the older API, we highly recommend pulling the latest code and updating the openai version.
- online_log module is now renamed to visualizer. Please execute
python3 visualizer/app.py to start the visualizer demo.

We extend our gratitude to all the contributors who have assisted us in identifying issues, proposing innovative features, and contributing code.
详细ChangeLog
Now git management is available! This feature enables the programmer agent to utilize GitHub for version control. To enable this feature, simply set "git_management" to "True" in ChatChainConfig.json.
详细ChangeLog
Human-Agent-Interaction Mode is now available!
We heard a lot of community discussions about reviews, where users want to give guidelines themselves, not just a task description at the beginning. Now you can use the HAI(Human-Agent-Interaction) mode by using python3 run.py --config "Human" , so that ChatDev can better meet your needs.
