Product Updates
SEPT Week 2.4 product updates
Calendar focus tools, clearer event details, faster Tasks workflows, the private Xel AI workspace, and compact navigation refinements.
Calendar
- Calendar focus mode now hides the main workspace sidebar and pinned module tabs so the schedule can use the full workspace. The same eye control restores the normal layout.
- A new Up Next panel summarizes events beginning within the next six hours. Events starting within one hour receive urgent styling, and each item includes its source account and calendar in compact supporting text.
- Right-clicking an event now opens a focused menu with Show Info, Edit Event, and Delete event actions instead of relying on hover-only information.
- Event information now extracts and organizes supported meeting links, provider names, meeting IDs, passcodes, SIP details, and dial-in numbers from connected calendar data.
- Calendar event colors now choose light or dark text for stronger contrast, including calendars that use pale backgrounds.
- Two-way sync changes show a visible updating state while C5 waits for the connected calendar, reducing uncertainty when turning sync on or off.
- The calendar source controls were aligned into a cleaner toolbar, the create-event action keeps its own position, and modern tooltips now label the top Calendar controls.
- The calendar side panel now uses a softer #F9FAFD background in light mode, with spacing and hierarchy refinements for easier scanning.
- Event creation and Google Calendar write-back handling were hardened so newly created events save to the selected C5 or connected calendar more reliably.
Tasks
- Task comments now load and save with less blocking work, giving new and edited comments faster feedback.
- The selection formatting toolbar now keeps active controls legible and preserves the selected text while applying bold, italic, underline, strike, code, list, quote, link, and related formatting actions.
- Expanded comment images can be closed back into the task without dismissing the task detail panel.
- Task date and recurrence handling was tightened to preserve the date the user selected across daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, and custom repeat patterns.
- Completing a recurring task now reconciles the replacement occurrence in the interface so the completed item and its next occurrence do not appear as an accidental duplicate.
- Opening task details now transitions the folder and list panel more smoothly while preserving enough of the current location to stay oriented.
- Tasks remembers the last selected folder or list on the browser so returning to the module restores the previous working location.
Xel private AI
- The owner-only Admin module now opens Xel, a private AI workspace for concise chat, current web research, deep research, writing, summaries, computation, data analysis, code help, and guided learning.
- Xel can inspect supported images and documents, work with uploaded references, create images, generate videos, prepare downloadable documents, and render self-contained website mockups from brand files or visual inspiration.
- Video requests detect common aspect ratios such as 9:16, 1:1, 4:5, and 16:9 from the prompt, while image-to-video requests can retain the attached creative as their reference.
- Chats are clickable and persistent on the current browser, and projects can group conversations, instructions, and supporting files into focused workspaces.
- Xel responses now use a calmer, border-light presentation with tighter spacing, clearer Markdown, source lists for researched answers, copy controls, and PDF download support.
- The new Ad Kit workflow can scan a public website, identify supported brand cues and source imagery, and assemble a coordinated campaign angle, captions, headlines, hashtags, static creative, and short-form video direction without inventing unsupported claims.
- Xel now includes a searchable tool menu, local file library, sketch input, voice transcription, Canvas, website publishing connections, personal memory controls, and clearer capability status.
- Scout moves beside the light and dark theme control while Admin is open so it does not compete with Xel in the lower-right workspace area.
Workspace polish
- Main sidebar module titles and icons were reduced slightly, with balanced row spacing for a sleeker navigation panel.
- Pinned module tabs, Calendar controls, Stacks focus behavior, and shared workspace transitions received small alignment and interaction refinements.
