ATHA v2.2.0 Release Announcement

Date: 2026-04-01

ATHA v2.2.0 is now available.

This release focuses on project identity and measurable workflow value on top of pacman, with improvements around safety, transparency, and auditability.

Highlights

• Install plan mode: atha install --plan <pkg>
  • Simulates install path and shows dependency and size preview for official packages.
• History timeline view: atha history --timeline
  • Shows chronological package operation events.
• Documentation and positioning updates
  • Clear project identity as a safety and workflow layer for pacman.

Why This Release Matters

ATHA is not intended to replace pacman or yay.

ATHA provides a workflow layer that improves:

• Safety: dry-run and confirmation support.
• Transparency: planning and previews before changes.
• Auditability: operation history and timeline output.
