What's New

Features and updates across every release.

v2.9.0 Latest
April 2026
  • New: first-run walkthrough — a guided tour that auto-plays on first launch, walking you through the launch screen and then the cockpit. The spotlight is click-through, so you interact with the real UI as you learn it. Replay any time from View → Launch Tutorial
  • Fixed: state-reactive skins and widgets now actually react — the shell state attribute (idle / thinking / streaming / tool-use / permission / error / complete) was previously never written, so logos and widgets that depended on it stayed dark. They now light up correctly
  • Improved: What's New in Settings collapses to a single header — click the arrow to expand the full list. State persists across sessions
v2.8.8
April 2026
  • New: clickable file paths in terminal output — click to open in the editor, folders reveal in Finder
  • New: agent completion notifications — dock badge, bounce, and desktop alert when your agent finishes. Off / Subtle / Persistent modes in Settings
  • New: three agents — crush (charmbracelet), Qwen Code, Groq Code. 10 agents total
  • New: launch screen recent directories — Clear button plus per-item × on hover
  • Fixed: URL clicks open in your default browser instead of an in-app popup
  • Fixed: Cursor install now works — was silently broken since the agent shipped
  • Fixed: Aider install works on systems with Python 3.13+ — switched to Aider's official installer
  • Fixed: install modal no longer hangs on "Running…" when a command is refused

April 2026
  • New: inline preview for images and PDFs in the Files panel
  • New: Preview button for HTML files in the Files panel

v2.8.5
April 2026
  • Fixed: GIF no longer spills over when switching skins — new skins with a GIF slot but no default image now show empty
  • Fixed: terminal no longer collapses to 1-character width in hidden tabs
  • Fixed: Files panel stays live after switching tabs — file tree now reflects changes immediately when you return to it
