What’s new with Murph

Seven days of features and improvements from the full Murph archive.

Murph learns the USDA food catalog

Roughly two million branded foods land in a hosted catalog, every captured metric becomes queryable, and voice-memo usage shows up in the spend ledger.

New features

Feature

~2M food labels at hand

Murph now knows the nutrition for ~2 million US branded foods — Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, your grocery aisle staples — with ingredients, portions, and per-serving panels.

Ask about a specific product and Murph answers from the catalog instead of guessing or sending you to a search.

Improvements

Improvement

Every captured metric is queryable

Metrics that were captured but invisible to queries — caffeine, water, mindfulness, heart-rate recovery, AFib burden, lowest/highest glucose, basal body temp, height, period and cycle length — now surface through the same generic path as measurements and lab samples.

Queryability is now a property of the canonical data instead of a per-metric registry, so future observation metrics gain query access with zero new wiring.

Newly queryable

Caffeine
Water
Mindfulness minutes
Heart-rate recovery
AFib burden
…and 8 more

Improvement

Voice-memo usage is now visible

Hosted Workers AI transcription writes a per-run usage record, so voice-memo cost shows up in the same ledger as Codex turns and image generation.

Apple Health expansion, faster cold replies

Connecting the companion once captures fourteen more Apple Health series, and cold message-to-reply latency drops noticeably.

New features

Feature

+14 Apple Health series

Connecting the iOS companion once now lands wrist temp, caffeine, water, mindfulness, heart-rate recovery, AFib burden, glucose, blood pressure, menstrual cycles, ECG, and more — fourteen new series in one pass.

Improvements

Improvement

Faster first reply after a pause

When you message Murph after a long quiet stretch, the first reply comes through noticeably sooner.

Improvement

All your WHOOP data in one answer

Asking about WHOOP now pulls from your live sync and any historical ZIP exports together, instead of splitting them.

Improvement

Voice memos over 15 minutes transcribe cleanly

Hosted transcription now passes verified original audio straight through to Workers AI when it is safe, and routes blocked or oversized formats through ffmpeg into 64 kbps mono MP3 — practical support reaches 15+ minute clips.

Long chats stay cheap and snappy

Threads auto-compact at 128k tokens, the CLI cold-starts 12-26% faster, and SMS-code autofill no longer leaves blue handles on the sign-in screen.

New features

Feature

Groundwork for the iOS app

Sign-in plumbing landed for the upcoming Murph iOS app, so the companion can hook into your account the moment it ships.

Improvement

Lower AI cost in long chats

Long conversations now keep themselves trim in the background, so Murph stays faster and cheaper to use the longer you chat.

Improvement

Cleaner SMS autofill on iOS

After autofilling a verification code from Messages, iOS no longer leaves blue selection handles floating over the sign-in OTP boxes.

Improvement

No long waits after a network blip

Brief connection hiccups no longer leave your next message hanging for minutes.

Email replies, image generation, instant voice memos

Murph can answer by email, attach generated images, and turn a one-minute voice memo around in seconds instead of nine minutes.

New features

Feature

Murph now replies by email

Email Murph and get a real reply back — same thread, same address.

Existing members start getting email replies automatically — no settings change, just send a message.

Improvement

Voice memos: ~9 min → seconds

Hosted voice-memo transcription moved off the local whisper.cpp path to Workers AI. A 65-second clip now transcribes in seconds instead of roughly nine minutes.

Improvement

No duplicate replies after updates

When Murph ships an update in the middle of a conversation, you no longer get the same reply twice.

Improvement

Reminders see what you logged today

Scheduled reminder agents now read your full vault, so a nightly protein nudge won't pretend you ate nothing after you already logged lunch.

Improvement

Daily reminders continue the same conversation

Recurring reminders (the PT reset, the nightly meditation prompt) now thread back into the iMessage conversation they were scheduled from instead of starting a fresh session.

Improvement

Stronger privacy guard on iMessage rebinds

Inbound iMessage now requires explicit direct-chat attestation before Murph will rebind your home thread, closing a potential leak where a missing is_group flag could route 1:1 replies into a family group.

Sidebar contact picker and hourly wearable refresh

Chat opens straight to a channel picker, email verification fits in one dialog, and an affected wearable import path refreshes every hour instead of every six.

New features

Feature

Meals flow in from MyFitnessPal & Cronometer

Meals you log in MyFitnessPal, Cronometer, and other connected apps now flow into Murph with ingredients and nutrition, ready for questions about food alongside training and sleep.

Improvement

One-step email verification

Changing your email is now a single dialog with an inline auto-submitting OTP step, replacing the previous nested modal stack.

Improvement

Device syncs no longer clobber reminder wakes

Device-sync passes were silently overwriting the runtime's next wake — confirmed misses last week included a 15:00 PT reminder delayed 179 minutes. Wake selection now merges in the armed assistant cron, earliest wins.

Automations that fire on activity

Automations can trigger off device activity, supplement brand search gets sharper, and onboarding keeps moving after you share context.

New features

Feature

Automations triggered by activity

Schedule automations that fire on wearable activity (for example, a workout finishing) instead of only on a clock.

iMessage

After every WHOOP workout, send me a one-line recovery prompt
Saved. I'll ping you after each workout with one recovery move.

Improvements

Pictures in chat, +250 exercises

Replies can include images where the channel supports them, and the exercise catalog grows by 250 at-home strength entries.

New features

Feature

Murph can attach images to replies

Murph can send pictures alongside replies — exercise demos, food labels, references — anywhere your channel supports it.

Feature

+250 exercises in the library

The exercise library grows by 250 at-home strength entries, with paired images for staples like glute bridges, squats, push-ups, and lunges.

Improvement

Calmer exercise walkthroughs

Multi-step exercise instructions are paced one move at a time instead of dumped into a single reply.

Improvement

Delete account wipes Stripe and Privy too

Settings now offers a single typed-DELETE confirm dialog that cancels any Stripe subscription before the local wipe (fail-closed) and best-effort removes the Stripe customer and Privy user after.
