Release date: 2026-05-11
Overview
v2.4.0 delivers the Advanced Agent Capabilities milestone by completing the full
v2.3.xdevelopment chain: collaboration, planning/reasoning persistence, native Java tools, and centralized hardening guardrails.Included Development Cycle
v2.3.1-dev- roadmap/docs workflow alignmentv2.3.2-dev- runtime stability hotfixv2.3.3-dev- agent memory foundationv2.3.4-dev- collaboration frameworkv2.3.5-dev- reasoning and planningv2.3.6-dev- native Java tools integrationv2.3.7-dev- capability hardeningv2.3.8-hotfix- version metadata/runtime release alignment
Highlights
1. Agent Collaboration Framework
- Team-scoped collaboration sessions
- Typed inter-agent messages (
DIRECTIVE,CONTEXT,STATUS,RESULT) - Task delegation tracking
- Shared context entries with versioning
2. Reasoning & Planning Persistence
- Planning goals and lifecycle state
- Versioned planning artifacts
- Compact summaries + reasoning chain snapshots
- Next-step retrieval for token-efficient execution
3. Native Java Tools Runtime
- Extensible
NativeJavaToolcontract - Registry/discovery endpoints
- Timeout-bounded JVM execution
- Tool-result caching with deterministic keys
- Built-ins:
tool_registry_inspectplugin_contract_validate
4. Central Hardening and Governance Foundation
- Shared policy engine for delegation/planning/tooling checks
- Delegation loop and max-hop guardrails
- Planning max-step and max-refinement guardrails
- Token budget guardrails with concise-mode signaling near thresholds
5. Release Quality Hotfix
v2.3.8-hotfixcorrected runtime metadata consistency by removing stale hardcoded compose defaults and aligning runtime version fallback behavior with the active build version.Operational Notes
- Compose startup smoke test was executed with
docker compose up -d --buildbefore milestone release. - Health endpoint returned
status=UP. - Flyway migrations validated and reached schema
v15.
Documentation
Documentation updates for this milestone were published incrementally in
synapse-docsdev releases throughv2.1.6-dev, including:- REST API additions for collaboration/planning/tools/hardening
- Agent concept updates for native tools and hardening behavior
- Environment variable updates for tooling and hardening settings
