The two limits were compiled in: a task run stopped at
AppData.HarnessMaxToolSteps (200) and a chat reply at
AppData.BotReplyMaxToolSteps (8), so an install that needed a longer task
had to rebuild.
Both are now `app_settings` rows (`harness_max_tool_steps` and
`bot_reply_max_tool_steps`), read at the two loop call sites through
grabHarnessMaxToolSteps and grabReplyMaxToolSteps, and edited by the super
admin on Settings > General beside the prompt appendix. Zero clears a
limit back to the code default, like the bot file quota.
readStepLimit keeps the saved number only when it is a whole number of at
least 1 and no more than AppData.BotStepLimitMax (1000), so a blank, a
zero or a typo falls back instead of stopping every run before its first
turn, and a huge number still ends in the wrap-up report.
runTextLoop keeps AppData.HarnessMaxToolSteps as its default, so it stays
free of database reads and its tests run as they did.
- A mic in the composer records, transcribes with the bot's
transcription model (api/admin/bots/transcribe) and writes the text
into the input at the cursor to edit before sending. Escape cancels;
recordings aren't stored.
- Every bot message has a read-aloud button that plays
GET api/admin/bots/speak-message, streamed from the provider as the
audio is made, so it starts in a couple of seconds. One message plays
at a time; only the user's own sessions can be read.
- Both buttons stay visible but disabled while the bot has no model for
them (bot_voice page prop).
- Transcription and speech no longer pick free models automatically:
they're not available until a model is picked, and Settings says so.
Transcription lists speech-to-text models only, so the chat-model
transcript path and its missing-audio check are gone.

- Harness: providers, model catalog synced hourly, automatic free picks,
cooldowns, tool loop with context trimming, MCP computer tools
- Bots queue runs replies and tasks through the harness; jobs wait
(attempt refunded) while every model is resting
- Envs: Settings > Environment, scoped general/workspace/computer,
written to computers and redacted from tool output
- Models: Settings > Models, per-harness provider select defaulting to
OpenRouter, and a models modal on each bot's chat (the coordinator's
edits the defaults)
- Chat: thinking row while a reply runs, file attachments (upload,
paste, drop) that replies read as images, audio and document text
- Fix media uploads failing after a user's first file, and private
files being served from the public media path
