Bridge v0.5.3
Bridge 0.5.3 fixes a shutdown issue found while testing the public DMG on a real Mac. Quitting with an idle provider could leave stale process ownership in the database, causing a successful chat to appear failed at the next launch. Normal shutdown now records a recoverable stopped state and preserves the conversation and provider resume ID. Existing completed, cancelled, and failed outcomes are retained.
Includes the 0.5.2 icon, macOS startup/window lifetime, daemon ownership, and packaging fixes.
- Apple Silicon macOS DMG, signed with Developer ID and notarized by Apple.
- Open the disk image and copy Bridge to Applications.
- Claude sessions require Node.js 18+ on the Mac.
The regression tests exercise real tracked fixture processes through daemon shutdown and restart, late provider frames, and existing failure outcomes. The app is also checked after installation using the user's normal application data; these bounded checks do not establish that every provider or long-running workload is healthy.
