Built in public

Every release,
in chronological order

Thirteen releases over five months, from the v0.4 foundation to typed RPC + hardening in v0.16. We ship in public and the log is the receipt.

v0.16.0 April 2026 LATEST

Typed RPC + Hardening

  • Typed RPC router — Proxy-based core, every subsystem registers typed handlers with zod validation at the boundary
  • Renderer calls via auto-typed rpc.* proxies — no more string-indexed IPC channels
  • Playwright E2E scaffold with 9 flow specs (sign-in, new session, checkpoint approve, handoff, team invite, orchestration plan, SSH, skills, automations)
  • Dev-only test-seams RPC router for flaky-free setup/teardown in E2E runs
  • Perf budget enforcer in CI — file-size, component-size, and bundle caps with per-file thresholds
  • Opt-in telemetry — consent store + Sentry adapter + no-op reporter when consent is denied or env-disabled
  • Husky + lint-staged pre-commit (prettier + eslint --fix) with commit-msg hook for conventional commits
  • File-based DB migrator — numbered SQL files resolved across dev and packaged builds
v0.15.0 April 2026 DESIGN

Editorial Redesign

  • Shared editorial primitives across desktop and web: EditorialHero, SectionHeader, Kicker, StatValue, EmptyState, DashDivider
  • Motion tokens (PAGE_STAGGER, HERO_STAGGER, GRID_STAGGER) with staggerDelay helpers for consistent page reveals
  • Zero chromatic classes in app UI — fully neutral palette with semantic emerald / amber / red reserved for status only
  • Outfit display + Instrument Serif italic accent + JetBrains Mono kickers on every major surface
  • Session Overview tab rebuilt as an editorial magazine layout with fused hero, activity heatmap, and mission control sections
  • Auth pages on web match desktop split layout with editorial hero + border-only auth card
  • Replaced every native <select> with Radix (desktop) and Base UI (web) — editorial trigger, mono uppercase, dashed hairlines
  • Dashboard cards and navigation spines use left-indicator active states and dashed section separators throughout
v0.14.0 April 2026 INTEGRATIONS

Integrations + PR Drafts

  • Linear, GitHub, and Jira issue import with shared issue schema
  • IssueImporter fan-out with per-source failure isolation — one dead source doesn’t break the others
  • IssuePicker wired into the New Session dialog — pick an issue, seed a session with full context
  • PR draft generator — heuristic body from session traces: files grouped by section, decisions → rationale, TODOs → follow-ups
  • Integration accounts with per-provider credential storage via keytar
  • Linked issues table with sync columns for cross-device visibility
v0.13.0 April 2026 EXTENSIBILITY

Extensibility — MCP, Skills, Automations

  • MCP Hub — install MCP servers once, propagate configuration to every agent profile (Claude Code / Cursor / Gemini / Aider)
  • First-write confirmation dialog before MCP Hub writes to per-adapter config files
  • Skills — skill manifest parser + installer, per-agent profile binding, RPC-bound CRUD, Settings UI
  • Automations engine — cron + template + trigger scheduling with pluggable ActionRegistry adapters
  • HMAC-verified webhook receivers for GitHub and Linear — failed signature = 401, no silent drops
  • Automation Settings UI with per-automation status, last-run timestamp, and dry-run preview
v0.12.0 April 2026 WORKTREES

Worktrees + SSH

  • Worktree Orchestrator with 4 modes: in-repo, new-worktree, pooled (warm pool), and remote (via SSH)
  • Pool warmth query surfaced in the New Session dialog — know whether a worktree is hot before you pick
  • Default-preservation cleanup and reclaim-on-archive — worktrees don’t leak
  • SSH Remote Sessions — PTY over SSH via RemoteSessionBridge, drops remote output into the same EventBus as local
  • Remote git (clone / fetch / worktree add / commit) over SSH — used when mode: 'remote'
  • SSH connection pool with DB-backed credential store and injectable ssh2 factory for testability
  • WorktreeModeSelector in the New Session dialog with per-mode config inputs and pool warmth indicator
  • Settings UI for SSH host CRUD — add, test, remove hosts with credentials stored via keytar
v0.11.0 April 2026 INTELLIGENCE

Intelligence + Replay

  • Session DNA — personal coding intelligence dashboard with peak hours, failure modes, and prompt quality insights
  • Pre-flight intelligence — complexity assessment, risk signals, and codebase alerts before you start
  • AI Session Replay — interactive playback with scrubber, speed control, and code/conversation toggle
  • Replay sharing with redaction controls and configurable link expiry

  • Cross-tool context bridge — seamless context handoff when switching between tools mid-task
