PathDeck v1.0.0

PathDeck v1.0.0 is the inaugural production release of PathDeck Studio. Built natively in Swift and SwiftUI for macOS, PathDeck replaces cumbersome manual shell configuration file edits with a safe, responsive visual workbench for managing ~/.zshrc and ~/.bash_profile.

This release introduces drag-and-drop PATH prioritization, alias management, Touch ID biometric protection for environment variables, and automatic backup diff restoration.

Added

  • Visual PATH Stack Manager: Drag-and-drop PATH directory prioritization with background health checks for dead or broken pathways.
  • Alias Studio: Visual quick-launcher and safe commenting deactivation for shell command aliases.
  • Biometric Environment Variable Protection: Touch ID authenticated access to secret and token variables with in-memory bullet masking.
  • Timestamped Safe Backups: Automated snapshot generation prior to committing configuration mutations with interactive diff comparisons.
  • Standalone DMG Packaging: Zero-dependency architecture maintaining operating states strictly under 10MB memory usage.

Changed

  • Native SwiftUI Workspace: Modernized control layout designed exclusively for macOS Sonoma and Sequoia.
  • Clean Configuration Demarcations: Safe block isolation preserving non-PathDeck customizations within shell profiles.

Fixed

  • Disk Validation Performance: Asynchronous background dispatch preventing UI blocking during disk hierarchy scans.
  • Shell Parser Robustness: Handled complex string expansions and multi-word command aliases cleanly.

Security And Integrity

  • Zero External Dependencies: Compiled with zero third-party packages, tracking code, or external framework links.
  • Local Biometrics: Biometric verification managed entirely via native Apple LocalAuthentication APIs.
