product update: implementation checklist
nut has rolled out new features to improve user control, transparency, and workflow efficiency. highlights include interactive feedback checklists, visual workspace sandboxes with shift-mode switching, and enhanced self-learning logging.
Embedded Files
over the past months we have received an enormous amount of feedback, feature requests and creative use-case ideas. today we are very pleased to announce a substantial set of improvements that directly address the most frequently requested areas:
feedback implementation checklist (now generally available in beta)
visual workspace sandboxes with seamless shift-mode switching
enhanced self-learning logging for transparent manual review
1. feedback implementation checklist – now live in beta
1. feedback implementation checklist – now live in beta
every nut-generated output now includes a structured, interactive feedback implementation checklist that lives directly beside (or below) the result.
core functionality
every checklist item is actionable and editable
items can be ticked / unticked / deleted / re-ordered
items support rich text, code blocks, links and inline comments
checklists are persistent per project / conversation thread
users can collapse, expand, or filter items by status: implemented, pending, or skipped
example usage patterns we see in early beta
marketing team receives newsletter draft → checklist contains “shorten subject line”, “add social proof quote”, “test mobile rendering” → team ticks two items, skips one, adds new “a/b test variant b headline”
developer gets refactored code → checklist proposes “add type hints”, “extract helper function”, “consider caching expensive computation” → developer implements first two, marks third “nice-to-have v2”
designer receives moodboard → checklist suggests “increase contrast ratio for accessibility”, “try warmer accent color”, “simplify icon set” → designer ticks accessibility item, rejects color change, adds own note “test with color-blind simulator”
access: internal beta participants already have the feature. if you would like to join the beta please write to [email protected] with your intended primary use-case.
2. visual workspace sandboxes – new interaction paradigm
2. visual workspace sandboxes – new interaction paradigm
we are introducing visual workspace sandboxes – persistent, multi-modal canvases that users can shape according to their needs.
current sandbox types (expanding weekly)
daw (digital audio workstation) sandbox – timeline + piano roll + mixer + effects chain
3d scene composer – import gltf, apply materials, set lighting, animate cameras
video sequencer – multi-track timeline, basic transitions, text overlays
music-to-video generator – drop midi/audio → nut proposes synchronized visual language
whiteboard + sticky notes + mind-map hybrid
code playground with live preview pane
core interaction innovation: shift-mode switching
press and hold shift → temporary “edit / curate” mode
release shift → back to “conversational / generative” mode
this removes the classic modal dialog fatigue; users stay in flow while still having full control over canvas content
early testers report that the shift-key toggle feels “like switching between talking to an assistant and directly sculpting clay”.
3. improved self-learning transparency & reviewability
3. improved self-learning transparency & reviewability
the self-learning / online adaptation loop has been significantly hardened:
new visibility & control points
every weight update that exceeds Δ = 0.5% of total parameter norm is now logged with:
before/after loss
affected layer(s)
input sample hash (anonymised)
ewc penalty applied
ppo advantage & clip status
users on pro plan can open the self-learning audit dashboard that shows a timeline view of the last 500 significant updates
one-click “revert update x” button (requires confirmation and reason)
“pause self-learning on this project” toggle (preserves current state)
exactly as we committed in the safety net protocol, these changes make the self-evolving nature of nut auditable and controllable.

the features above are rolling out progressively to internal beta participants during january and february 2026. if you would like to experience them early, please reach out to hello at nrutseab dot com with a short description of your primary intended use-case.
thank you for being part of this journey. we look forward to a amazing year together.
see you in the workspace,
the nut team
