Release notes
A stuck model stops repeating itself
When a model starts repeating the same text, Vortex drops that stream and retries once, with less reasoning when a lower setting exists. If it repeats again, the run pauses. In an SSH workspace, Explorer can download a file to this Mac.
New
- In an SSH workspace, right-click a file in Explorer and choose Download… to save it on this Mac. A folder does not offer it, and a local file uses Reveal in Finder. A file larger than 8 MB is refused rather than saved short. A remote server from before this release can still download text; binary files ask you to redeploy it.
Fixed
- A stream that is repeating itself — reasoning, visible text, or tool arguments — is stopped, and that text is not kept. Vortex retries the step once, lowering the reasoning effort when the model has a lower setting, then pauses and asks you to switch models or lower the effort. The timeline says what happened. A sub-agent that gets stuck reports that back to the parent. The same short assistant line on three steps in a row is named back to the model. File contents that repeat on purpose are not treated as a loop.
output_loop_guardinconfig.toml, orVORTEX_OUTPUT_LOOP_GUARD, turns the check off. - A two-digit count on an icon badge has a little more room inside the pill.
