Husk 2.8.9

Meet Kernel.

Husk has a character now. The pod cracks open on the welcome tour and the seed
inside climbs out, looks around, and follows your cursor. Click him and he goes
back into the husk. The logo, the app icon and the site were redrawn to match.

The installer was rebuilt end to end for Linux, macOS and Windows, and it now
survives the paths it used to fall over on: a machine with no gnupg, a fresh
Fedora, an arm64 laptop, a shell that is not bash. Checksums are verified and a
failed install rolls itself back.

Install updates from inside Husk now really does install and restart, instead of
quietly doing nothing.

  • Every agent shows the model it actually ran, with per-agent time, tokens, cost
    and cache split.

  • A Configure wizard sets Simple and Complex models per CLI, and the run log
    explains every routing decision. Trivial jobs stop going to the expensive model.

  • A progress governor halts idle or looping agents before they burn your budget.

  • A team's agents group into one history entry with combined files, tokens and spend.

  • Chat titles appear promptly again.

  • Gemini sessions carry history, naming and resume, alongside the other agents.

  • A new install opens in light. Every theme previews live in Preferences, and the
    old one no longer flashes at startup.

  • Agents installed through nvm are found instead of reported missing.

  • The app icon is sharp at every size, and an upgrade no longer deletes it.

  • Light mode is readable: diffs and dim text no longer wash out.
