NEX v5.34 is out now: Meet the First Lattice Agent

Getting Started / Updating NEX

New to NEX or updating from a previous version? Follow the installation and upgrade instructions in the official docs: Installation Guide.

This release introduces our first Lattice-powered agent, expands model and deployment options, and makes long-running workflows significantly more resilient through task recovery and workflow continuity improvements.

Introducing Our First Lattice Agent

One of the highlights of this release is support for Lattice Radiant and the introduction of the first Lattice-powered workflow inside NEX.

This marks an important step in our vision of bringing specialized AI agents directly into everyday operational workflows. By combining NEX’s orchestration capabilities with the Lattice ecosystem, users can automate more complex tasks while maintaining transparency and control over agent actions.

The included demo showcases how the new agent can streamline repetitive work and serve as a foundation for more advanced workflow automation in future releases.

Resume Tasks Without Losing Progress

Long-running workflows don’t always complete in one sitting. Network interruptions happen. Users cancel commands. Priorities change.

NEX can now preserve the context of cancelled tasks, allowing work to be resumed later instead of forcing users to start from scratch. We’ve also improved cancellation handling to ensure aborted operations are not unintentionally resumed.

Together, these changes make agent-driven workflows far more practical for real-world usage.

More Control Over Responses

We’ve added a new /verbosity command that allows you to control how much detail NEX includes in its responses.

Whether you prefer concise operational output or more detailed explanations, NEX can now better adapt to your workflow.

Expanded Deployment Flexibility

This release broadens deployment options with support for:

  • Azure-hosted model deployments
  • GPT-5 models through the latest OpenAI Responses API
  • Lattice Radiant integrations
  • Windows shell environments

These additions make it easier to deploy NEX in enterprise, cloud, and mixed-platform environments.

Better Visibility Into Agent Activity

We’ve improved how agent actions, tool outputs, and workflow transitions are displayed throughout the interface.

New visual separators and enhanced rendering make longer sessions easier to follow while providing greater transparency into what agents are doing behind the scenes.

Safety & Reliability Improvements

This release also includes a range of stability and safety enhancements:

  • Additional safeguards preventing execution of sudo commands
  • Improved handling of execution limits and cancelled operations
  • Better validation of image inputs before processing
  • Improved provider timeout handling and compatibility updates
  • Numerous reliability improvements across agent and tool execution paths

As always, thank you to everyone providing feedback, testing new workflows, and helping us shape the future of NEX.
