Runchat Updates: October 6, 2026

💻  NEW DASHBOARD, NODE, MENU, INPUT AND IMAGE EDIT UI

Dashboards: 

• The sidebar is easier to navigate folders
• All dashboard pages are simpler with more consistent cards

Nodes: 

• You can view inputs and outputs on nodes at the same time
• Inputs are collapsible, so outputs still take visual priority
• Input parameter names are always visible and get highlighted when you hover the handles

Menus: 

• We've moved most secondary functions to new ... menus on the selection menu, workflow and account.
• The node settings bar has been simplified and rolled into the selection menu
• All menus have been given a visual refresh

Image editor: 

• We've simplified the toolkit so its easier and faster to use
• We've removed the old layer system and replaced this with edit history
• You can now make simple changes to images with text prompts right in the image editor for faster iteration
• This includes actions for making multiple changes to the image without degrading quality

Input Collections: 

• inputs with multiple values (e.g. groups of images) are now displayed in a collection view
• you can use checkboxes to control which images are output from collections without having to re-wire edges or copy nodes
• this makes it super easy to swap between inputs

New model picker

• quick select is back for common tasks
• you can find the models you need with a quality picker

🐇  PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENTS

• We dynamically render the canvas so that it should be 60fps even with 1000 nodes
• It should also feel a bit faster just loading the dashboard pages, galleries and workflows

✨ EASIER-TO-USE EXAMPLES

• Updated the landing page with clearer, more focused examples to help you find a useful starting point.
• Swap images in examples using image collections. Choose images from a collection and save your selection, making it simpler to try your own references.
• Refreshed architecture examples with Muse imagery.

⌨️ SIMPLER CLI SIGN-IN

• The CLI now guides you through authentication and makes common tasks easier to get started with—including when asking an agent to use Runchat.

🐇 FASTER RHINO WORKFLOWS

• Improved screenshot capture and script sending in Rhino, helping you move through workflows more quickly.
