Fix
The change that release actually states
Against the previous installer, the v0.1.1 notes describe one fix: Agent chat. The 0.1.0 package could not read dependencies when the worker started, so chat failed. v0.1.1 fixes that in the installer.
This page does not turn anything else into a history of older versions. Earlier builds are mentioned only in that fix and in the note to quit the old app before replacing it.

These sentences come from the v0.1.1 release notes, aligned with wording already on the site. Numbers that were not published are not added here.
Canvas and agent
Infinite canvas plus a resident agent, with 11 node types. Storyboards, shots, assets, and the timeline close the loop in one project. A parameter change reruns only the affected nodes, and each generation leaves a Take you can review.
On-device engines
h3.c video engine: MiniMax-H3 (BF16), shot-level, with an audio track. mlxgen image engine (mlx-gen-jzg): Z-Image-Turbo, Qwen-Image family, SeedVR2, and more on demand. Agent: any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Export uses local FFmpeg.
Local-first
Projects, the canvas, takes, and assets are written only to ~/.bigbotart. Assets are not uploaded. There is no account and no subscription.
Requirements
An Apple Silicon (arm64) Mac. The h3.c and mlxgen models are large, so allow several GB of disk before the first run. Minimum OS version and memory are on GitHub Releases.
