What's New in v0.8.1
Skills Marketplace
We've seen some incredible workflows within Aera, so we thought we'd make sharing them that much easier. We've introduced the Skills Marketplace, where community members can discover, create, share, and use skills from the Aera community.
You can also create and use skills locally by asking the Agent in chat or manually in Settings > Skills, where you can publish your authored skills to the marketplace, anonymously or credited.
All published skills are reviewed by the Aera team and are made publicly-available once verified.
Local Model Support
We've replaced the free model router, which has historically had poor performance in agentic tasks within Aera, with local model support. Local models can be enabled from Settings > Models > Use local models, and works out-of-the-box with Ollama, detecting any currently avaible models on your device. You can manually add other local model providers if using LM Studio, vLLM, or any other provider of your choice.
Note: tools available to local models are limited as Aera relies on highly-specific vision models for certain tasks.
