Changelog

WHAT'S
NEW.

What changed in Chirai, newest first. Most of it came from testing real sites — see how we test.

v30.6FIX13 Oct 2026
  • FIXThe quality check after a build only changes what it finds broken — and never a fix that would remove something that works, like a mobile menu
  • NEWLive data your idea needs (air quality, weather, a city search …) is connected while the site is built, and the pages read it — in the preview too
  • IMPManage site → Connections shows which pages read each connection, whether your site has called it, and what it answers
  • FIXNo more example.com or filler descriptions in what search engines read about your site
v30.5ENGINE13 Oct 2026
  • IMPNewer Claude models in one step: each level (fast, standard, best) can move to a newer model without a new release, and goes back by itself if that model is refused
  • IMPPrompt caching on Claude calls: the long instructions shared by a build’s pages and repairs are paid in full once, then read at a tenth of the price
  • IMPAI cost per build now comes from Claude’s own token counts, cached reads included
v30.4ENGINE13 Oct 2026
  • IMPThe database comes first: as soon as Chirai writes a site’s database, every page after it is written against those real tables and columns
  • IMPThe site’s types always describe its real database — after every change Chirai makes to either
v30.3FIX12 Oct 2026
  • NEWSites with staff and roles: sign in to your site with your Chirai email and you’re its admin — see every record, add staff, change roles. Nobody else can make themselves admin
  • FIXEvery account has its profile, also one made while the site’s database was still being set up
  • FIXA gym, clinic or school site no longer gets a shop: plans, classes and services are joined or booked, not put in a cart
  • FIXChirai’s certain fixes run again after its AI repairs, so a repair can’t bring back a fixed problem
  • IMPPages tab: detail pages are named (“Class details”) and open from their list
v30.2FIX12 Oct 2026
  • FIXSite databases keep every link between tables: one line the database refuses no longer makes Chirai set up the tables without them
  • FIXPages that show records together (a check-in with its member) are checked against the real database and linked if they aren’t
  • IMPActivity reports the database as it really is after the check, including anything that still fails
v30LAUNCH12 Oct 2026
  • NEWActivity: see what Chirai is doing in plain words — every step, every fix (where, why, what’s better), what it added and what the checks found
  • NEWYour site in ChatGPT and Claude: every site has its own AI-assistant connector (MCP), read-only, sharing only what visitors see
  • NEWApps: App Review gets a ready demo account, and you get Apple’s TestFlight invite to install your app right away
  • IMPBuilds wait their turn when Chirai is busy and tell you your place in line, instead of slowing everyone down
  • IMPiOS permission messages say what your app uses the camera, photos or location for; no background location unless needed
  • IMPContact and Cancellation & Refund pages for Chirai itself
v29.5APPS11 Oct 2026
  • NEWChirai follows your app after it’s sent: Apple’s review (waiting, in review, approved, rejected, live) and your Google Play track, with an email when Apple answers
  • NEWiOS: once you’ve answered App Privacy, Chirai sends the app for review by itself
  • NEWGoogle Play: move a release to closed testing or production from the publishing guide; later versions follow automatically
  • FIXA second iOS release gets the next version number instead of failing on “1.0.0” again
  • IMPYour Google Play and App Store keys are stored encrypted and never sent back to the browser
v29.4RELIABLE6 Oct 2026
  • FIXPublishing again never stops on the database: every setup step is safe to repeat
  • FIXPages that couldn’t pre-render or showed “Element type is invalid” now build
  • FIXPreviews show your data on every page (no more “fetch failed” or missing detail pages)
  • IMPHome page cards open their own page with that item’s real photo, price and details
  • IMPMade-up counters, ratings and activity feeds are replaced by real numbers or removed
  • IMPEvery page you confirm is built and linked, even without a ready-made template
v29.3REAL CONTENT5 Oct 2026
  • NEWEvery detail page shows “More like this” from the same table
  • NEWSite check has a “Fix errors” button: Chirai repairs, publishes again and checks again
  • IMPHome page cards show your real listings with their own photos and prices; numbers come from your database or aren’t shown
  • IMPMarketplaces where people sell their own things get no cart, shipping or returns pages
  • IMPPages you confirm in the studio (About Us …) are always built and linked
  • FIX“Fix with IILA” after a failed publish now repairs and publishes again
  • FIXLists that join two tables in two ways, and photo tables the code reads, no longer fail
v29QUALITY5 Oct 2026
  • NEWThe Chirai book — full documentation at /docs, with search
  • NEWReal build times: the Studio shows the minutes left; /docs/build-time explains every step from real builds
  • NEWCode review on every build: automatic checks, an AI review of pages that save data or handle money, and access tests with two test accounts
  • NEWShops: cart reminder emails, “tell me when it’s back”, low-stock emails, Sales page, search, saved addresses, wishlist, “Buy again”
  • NEWApp Store: Chirai uploads screenshots, category, age rating and reviewer contact, and sends the app for review
  • IMPDatabase rules explained in plain words on every form; forms enforce the same limits
  • IMPAccount page with the customer’s own records; the navbar shows “Account” when signed in
  • IMPPayment keys, email passwords and tokens are stored encrypted
  • FIXChirai’s own repair engine fixes quote and cut-off-code slips without AI before every preview
