Changelog for v3.6.0 — 7 New Power-Ups, One Unified Design System

Ryne Chat just got a lot more powerful. After the v3.5 rebuild, we're shipping 7 new power-ups that turn the chat into a full creative workspace — presentations, spreadsheets, reports, resumes, charts, math solving, and deep research — all generated right inside the conversation.
🧰 7 New Power-Ups
The original power-ups let Ryne search the web, generate images, run code, and pull citations. Now there's a whole new category: Generators — power-ups that create polished, downloadable files from a single prompt.
📊 PowerPoint
Tell Ryne what you need and get a complete .pptx deck — not a wall of bullet points on white slides. Every presentation uses intentional slide archetypes (hero, stat highlights, timelines, comparisons, case studies) with metric cards, callout boxes, icon bullets, and proper visual hierarchy.
"Use the PowerPoint power-up to create a Series A pitch deck for an AI customer support startup"
📋 Spreadsheet
Generate formatted .xlsx files with styled headers, alternating row colors, auto-filters, frozen panes, SUM/AVERAGE formulas, conditional formatting, and embedded charts. Ryne uses xlsxwriter so the output opens clean in Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers.
"@Spreadsheet monthly budget tracker with categories for housing, food, transport, and savings"
📄 PDF Report
Get editorial-quality PDF reports rendered from HTML/CSS via WeasyPrint — cover pages, section headers with accent underlines, styled tables, callout boxes, page numbers, and multi-page layouts. If WeasyPrint isn't available, it falls back to ReportLab automatically.
"@PDF-Report market analysis on EV charging infrastructure in North America"
👤 Resume
Create polished, ATS-friendly resumes in four layout variants — Modern Professional, Executive, Creative, and Academic — each tailored to different industries. Sidebar layouts, skills sections, quantified achievements, proper typography.
"@Resume senior software engineer with 6 years at Stripe and Datadog, specializing in Go and distributed systems"
📈 Chart
Generate publication-ready charts and visualizations. Ryne defaults to Plotly for crisp, well-labeled output with branded color themes, annotations, trend lines, and source footnotes. Falls back to Matplotlib if needed.
"@Chart monthly revenue growth from $1.2M to $3.1M over 2024, annotate when we crossed $2M"
🧮 Solve
Step-by-step math and science problem solving with visual output. Powered by SymPy for symbolic work (solve, integrate, differentiate, limits, and related steps) plus matplotlib for figures — with rendered solution steps you can follow.
"@Solve integrate x² · sin(x) dx"
🔬 Deep Research
Deep Research has been completely upgraded with a structured 4-phase methodology: research planning, targeted multi-query search strategy, source quality scoring, and synthesis with executive summaries, data tables, expert perspectives, and full citations. Every claim requires 2+ independent sources.
"@Deep-Research compare React vs Vue for production apps in 2026"
🎨 Unified Design System
Generated artifacts share a coherent visual language. The design system includes five curated palettes (Ocean, Ember, Forest, Slate, Royal), slide archetypes and chart colors for decks and figures, resume layout variants, and shared QA rubrics — so instructions stay consistent across generators.
The result: a pitch deck and its companion spreadsheet can look like they belong together.
✨ Redesigned Power-Ups Selector
The old dropdown is gone. The new power-ups menu is a full panel with:
- Category sidebar — Browse by Search, Create, Analyze, or Generators
- Detail view — Tap any power-up to see what it does, example prompts to try, and a one-tap enable/disable toggle
- Search — Filter across all power-ups instantly
- Responsive — Opens as a dialog on desktop, a drawer on mobile
🛠️ Under the Hood
- Smarter tool guidance — The system prompt now directs the model to use the right libraries (xlsxwriter over openpyxl for new spreadsheets, WeasyPrint over ReportLab for PDFs, Plotly over Matplotlib for charts) with proper fallback chains
- Chat cache syncing — Conversations stay in sync across tabs and sessions
- Reasoning expansion — The thinking/reasoning toggle now syncs with streaming state so it expands smoothly while the response is still generating
- Image URL consolidation — Cleaner handling of image attachments across chat messages
Every power-up works with @mentions — type @ in the message box, pick a power-up, describe what you want, and Ryne handles the rest. Mix and match them in a single conversation.
