# SenseNova 6.8 Flash Lite Preview
**English** | [中文](README_CN.md)
> A lightweight preview model taking a major step toward **Delegated Intelligence**.
**SenseNova 6.8 Flash Lite Preview** is now available through the SenseNova Token Plan. It can autonomously plan, execute over long horizons, coordinate multiple agents, correct its course, and deliver end-to-end results — moving beyond answering questions toward completing delegated work.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> This is an early preview release. Model behavior, availability, and interfaces may evolve before the official release. **SenseNova 6.8 Flash Lite** and the more powerful **SenseNova 6.8 Flash** are coming soon.

## Three Pillars of Delegated Intelligence
SenseNova 6.8 Flash Lite Preview strengthens the three capabilities required to turn long, complex requests into completed deliverables:
### 1. Stable Long-Context, Long-Horizon Execution
- Maintains goals, constraints, and critical facts across hundreds of steps and multiple phases
- Keeps working through tasks that can span hours
- Detects failures, rolls back when needed, and replans toward the original objective
### 2. Dynamic Sub-Agent Collaboration
- Lets a lead agent dynamically organize and dispatch more than ten specialist agents
- Runs research, data analysis, mathematical reasoning, visual understanding, and fact-checking in parallel
- Reconciles intermediate findings into a single coherent result
### 3. Native Multimodal Fusion
- Understands text, images, charts, documents, video, web pages, and application interfaces
- Plans, reasons, calls tools, and verifies results along one unified task trajectory
- Connects multimodal understanding directly to actions and final deliverables

## From Autonomous Action to Final Delivery
In a representative workflow, the model can independently review and analyze news, policies, market data, and other multimodal signals; identify key variables; reason about how events may evolve; and produce an in-depth analysis and forecast report for topics such as market dynamics, sporting events, and emerging situations.
```text
Define the objective
↓
Collect multimodal evidence
↓
Dispatch specialist sub-agents
↓
Analyze, cross-check, and replan
↓
Build scenarios and forecasts
↓
Verify and deliver the final report
```
This is not merely information retrieval. It is a complete loop of **plan → act → coordinate → correct → verify → deliver**.
> Public demo materials and complete evaluation results will be added as they become available.

## More Ways to Explore
- **Dynamic presentations** — research and write the content, create charts, design the layout, and deliver native HTML presentations that go beyond static slides
- **Browser and app operation** — understand multimodal web pages and application interfaces, then operate them to complete office workflows
- **Local-file workflows** — read and organize local documents, connect information across files, and produce finished artifacts
- **Coding and automation** — write scripts, run automated workflows, inspect the outcome, and iterate when execution fails
> End-to-end workflows require an agent runtime, appropriate tools, and Skills. A direct model API call alone does not provide browser or application control.

## Quick Start
### Apply for an API Key
1. Register and complete identity verification at [SenseNova Console](https://platform.sensenova.cn/console).
2. From the console sidebar, go to **Management Center → API Key Management → Create API Key**, then copy and store it safely. The full key is shown only once.
3. Set the environment variable:
```bash
export SENSENOVA_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
```
### Make Your First Call
```bash
curl 'https://token.sensenova.cn/v1/chat/completions' \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $SENSENOVA_API_KEY" \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"model": "sensenova-6.8-flash-lite",
"max_tokens": 2000,
"messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Plan and summarize the key steps for a competitive analysis."}]
}'
```

## Using with Agent Frameworks
To run end-to-end delegated workflows, pair SenseNova 6.8 Flash Lite Preview with an **agent runtime** and the **official skill library**.
- **Recommended runtime**: [OpenClaw](https://openclaw.ai/) or [hermes-agent](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent)
- **Model API**: [SenseNova Token Plan](https://platform.sensenova.cn/token-plan)
- **Skills**: [OpenSenseNova/SenseNova-Skills](https://github.com/OpenSenseNova/SenseNova-Skills)
- **Installation guide**: [SenseNova-Skills INSTALL.md](https://github.com/OpenSenseNova/SenseNova-Skills/blob/main/INSTALL.md)
> During the preview period, the shared installation guide may still show the 6.7 model name. When configuring your provider for this preview, use `sensenova-6.8-flash-lite`.
### Installing SenseNova-Skills
The simplest route is to ask your agent to install the repository:
> *"Please install https://github.com/OpenSenseNova/SenseNova-Skills into your skills directory."*
After installation, you may need to restart the agent service before the new skills are discovered.
| Agent | Target directory |
| --- | --- |
| [OpenClaw](https://openclaw.ai/) | `~/.openclaw/skills/` |
| [hermes-agent](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent) | `~/.hermes/skills/` |
Prefer to install manually?
```bash
git clone https://github.com/OpenSenseNova/SenseNova-Skills.git --depth=1
mkdir -p ~/.openclaw/skills
cp -r SenseNova-Skills/skills/* ~/.openclaw/skills/
```
For Hermes, replace the target directory with `~/.hermes/skills/`.
