xCloud Changelog

xCloud v2.8.2 brings more control over GitHub connections, a smoother support experience, safer domain setup, faster dashboard pages, and reliability fixes across hosting and site management.

🔥 New Features

Repository-scoped GitHub App connections

Connect GitHub through an App and choose whether xCloud can access all repositories or only the repositories you select. Existing GitHub connections continue to work, and migration can happen without downtime.

Git setup for existing sites with GitHub Apps

Set up Git tracking on an existing WordPress or Custom PHP site using a GitHub App connection. xCloud checks that the selected repository is reachable and empty before setup begins, with clearer steps and confirmation details.

Connect one GitHub organization to multiple teams

The same GitHub organization can now be connected to more than one xCloud team. Disconnecting it from one team no longer affects the other teams.

Automatic recovery for missing Cloudflare Enterprise cache purging

xCloud now detects when the Cloudflare Enterprise cache-purge plugin is missing after a restore, clone, or manual deletion. Monitoring shows the issue and provides a one-click reinstall option.

✨ Improvements

• Cloudflare Enterprise DNS instructions now separate safe verification records from the live-traffic cutover step, with clearer warnings about DNS changes.
• HTTPS is enabled by default when you select a live domain during site creation.
• Server and site pages load faster, especially on servers with many sites.
• Hermes and OpenClaw pages now use more consistent buttons, banners, and confirmation messages.
• The New Server menu now works more clearly with keyboard navigation and screen readers.
• Git setup errors now explain the next step in plain language, such as reconnecting GitHub or selecting an empty repository.
• The New Server menu now clearly separates xCloud Managed servers from Bring Your Own VPS provider options and shows the applicable pricing before you continue.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• PHP-FPM settings are now validated before saving, preventing inconsistent values from taking multiple sites offline.
• Server details are no longer exposed to team members without server access.
• Staging-site deletion warnings now appear for every team member who can delete a site.
• Cloudflare Enterprise domains now recover more reliably when registration, secure-connection setup, or DNS timing issues occur.
• SSL renewal and health checks are more reliable for OpenLiteSpeed Node.js sites.
• Vulnerability syncing now handles concurrent updates safely and retries temporary failures.
• DeepSeek Harness servers now report provisioning failures correctly and can retry site setup without getting stuck.

🔥 New Features

Managed DeepSeek Harness Hosting

Managed DeepSeek Harness Hosting is now available on xCloud. Deploy an open-source, plugin-based AI coding agent on fully managed infrastructure and get more control over the models, tools, and workflows behind your AI development setup.

DeepSeek Harness is built around a simple idea: everything is a plugin, giving you the flexibility to create the coding environment that works for you.

Use it to:

• Choose and switch between different AI models and tools instead of being locked into one ecosystem.
• Work with files, run shell commands, search the web, plan tasks, and automate development workflows.
• Review agent actions, tool calls, and results with greater visibility into every session.
• Switch between different runtime modes depending on the task.
• Add new tools, capabilities, storage, sandboxes, and workflows without modifying the core system.
• Run a flexible alternative to Claude Code and OpenAI Codex on infrastructure managed by xCloud.

xCloud handles deployment, SSL, security, monitoring, and infrastructure management, so you can focus on building and running your AI agents.

xCloud v2.7.4 introduces the Buzz OneClick App and OneClick App Templates, making it easier to deploy supported self-hosted applications on Docker Nginx servers. You can now run your own private Buzz workspace on xCloud with a guided setup, secure WebSockets, and persistent application data.

🔥 New Features

OneClick App Templates with 13+ new Apps

xCloud’s new OneClick App Templates provide a guided way to deploy supported Docker and Node.js applications. xCloud manages the required credentials, ports, configuration values, and template version used during installation.

📌 Install supported applications through a guided setup flow instead of manually preparing Docker Compose files.
📌 Keep installations more predictable with template versions pinned during setup.
📌 Generate and manage required credentials, ports, and configuration values during installation.

Buzz OneClick App Deployment

You can now deploy Buzz as a OneClick application on compatible Docker Nginx servers. Buzz is a self-hosted workspace where teams and AI agents can collaborate in shared rooms, work with Git, and communicate through signed events.

Buzz OneClick App Setup on xCloud

📌 Launch your own Buzz relay with a custom domain and secure WebSocket connection.
📌 Connect through the Buzz desktop app or CLI using your own wss:// relay URL.
📌 Run Buzz with PostgreSQL, Redis, and media storage configured automatically.
📌 Start with a private, membership-controlled relay using your supplied Nostr public key as the owner.
📌 Keep relay data, media uploads, Git repositories, and application data on persistent storage.

The Buzz OneClick App is available for compatible Docker Nginx servers in xCloud. Choose the Buzz template, connect a custom domain, provide the relay owner public key, and let xCloud prepare the required application services and configuration.

What does the Buzz OneClick App install?

The Buzz template configures the Buzz workspace with PostgreSQL, Redis, media storage, persistent volumes, and WebSocket-ready Nginx proxy handling so teams and AI agents can collaborate through a secure relay.

🐛 Improvements

📌 OneClick applications now include controls to start, stop, restart, redeploy, and manage environment configuration after installation.

📌 Improved compatibility checks help prevent templates from being installed on unsupported server stacks.

📌 WebSocket-ready proxy handling makes applications such as Buzz available securely through your xCloud domain.

🐛 Bug Fixes

📌 Improved n8n update handling to reduce the risk of an incomplete application replacement.

📌 Fixed billing and mailbox recovery cases so paid services and billing details are reflected more accurately.

xCloud v2.7.3 brings a smoother sign-in and checkout experience, stronger multisite wildcard SSL handling, more flexible Custom Nginx controls, and reliability improvements across the platform.

When creating a Vultr server, xCloud now checks plan availability for your selected region before provisioning begins.
This helps identify unavailable plans earlier in the server-creation process.

🐛 Improvements

📌 Improved managed wildcard SSL issuance for WordPress multisite subdomain networks, with clearer DNS validation and certificate coverage checks.

📌 Improved the Site Git settings page with clearer action hierarchy.

📌 Updated the web and SSH terminal welcome banner for more accurate colour rendering.
