Release Notes - 3.03.0

 The 3.03.0 release focuses on accelerating safe authoring in Document Studio, raising Copilot answer quality and action reliability, and hardening platform operations. It brings faster section edits and exports, stronger grounding and tool-use for Copilot across Nova/Claude/GPT‑4.1, and targeted stability fixes across extraction, graph, and Dynamic Objects. 

 1. Highlights

• Document Studio: faster edits and exports with safer, clearer save behavior
• Copilot: higher-quality answers with improved grounding, tools, and guardrails
• Extraction & Graph: reliability and performance improvements at scale
• Dynamic Objects: safer imports/exports with clearer conflict handling
• Platform & Admin: more resilient startup, catalog alignment, and observability

2.Knowledge Reserve

The Knowledge Reserve (KR) is Rhino's central document store for a project — a single organized location where all source material and configuration files live, making them accessible across the platform's core workflows.

• Two-bucket structure: The KR is organized into Source Files (non-editable inputs — code repositories and supporting docs like SOPs, ERDs, and transcripts) and Configuration Files (editable steering documents and Skills)
• Copilot integration: Copilot can read from and write to the KR, with the view automatically refreshing after any write so changes are immediately visible — no manual refresh required
• Skill portability: Skills stored in the KR can be downloaded as a complete folder package and uploaded into a new project, enabling reuse across engagements
• Navigation: The KR is surfaced as a dedicated tab in the project view, replacing the legacy Asset tab for all projects on the current extraction pipeline

3. Documentation & Export

• Section editing performance improved for large UAD and Custom Documents, reducing latency while typing and saving.
• DOCX export robustness increased for deeply nested sections and tables; resolved sporadic formatting drift seen in long documents.
• Diagram generation stabilized for complex flows; improved error messaging when a diagram cannot be rendered.
• Upload Document: expanded validation and status feedback for Markdown (.md) and large file imports to reduce retries.
• Clearer save states and restore options after partial edits, minimizing accidental overwrites during concurrent work.

4. Copilot

• Grounding and retrieval improvements produce more direct, context-first answers; reduced inventory-style verbosity.
• Tool reliability: stabilized long-running tools and refined failure fallbacks to keep chats responsive.
• Improved model handling and prompt calibration across Nova/Claude/GPT‑4.1 for more consistent results.
• Chat controls: clearer system status, better error visibility, and refined mode selection to match user intent.

5. Extraction, Graph & Observability

• Large-file and high-concurrency runs are more reliable; reduced timeouts and partial-run inconsistencies.
• Routine pipeline safeguards reduce low-yield consolidations and improve recovery after transient provider limits.
• Graph view corrections for related-element links and list indentation in edge cases.
• Expanded routine-level logging and diagnostics accelerate issue triage without increasing noise.

6. Dynamic Objects, Import/Export & UI

• Import conflict handling improved to prevent unintended merges on identical names across routines; clearer prompts before applying changes.
• Bulk-write stability and progress visibility enhanced, especially under concurrent imports.
• Export pipeline hardened under load; parity preserved when re-importing previously exported content.
• UI fixes: consistent tree ordering, predictable cross-routine child rendering, and stable edit panels.

7. Platform & Admin

• Model catalog alignment for Bedrock/Nova/Claude with refined capability flags and safer fallbacks on startup.
• Prompt caching refinements reduce latency spikes for repeated actions.
• Improved resilience when a provider/model is unavailable—impacted features degrade gracefully without service interruption.

8. Quality Improvements & Fixes

• Documentation: corrected rare cases of missing sub-sections after incremental regeneration.
• Citations: improved restoration of edge cases that previously failed on specific providers.
• UI polish: resolved misleading status messages in routine history and cleaned up transient export errors.
• General hardening: reduced flaky states across history views and stabilized timestamps for long operations.

Known Behaviors

• Extremely large diagrams may still render with simplified styling; the export pathway now surfaces a clear message with suggested remediation.
