@github-actions github-actions released this 08 Jul 18:08

Tend gives AI coding agents ongoing responsibility for things you care about while keeping judgment local, visible, and reviewable.

v0.2.0 is Tend’s first public experimental release. It packages the local runtime, review interface, agent workflows, and documentation needed to create and operate persistent feeds.

Experimental software: Expect breaking changes. Keep backups and do not rely on Tend for critical or irreversible workflows.

Highlights

  • Intent-driven feeds: Give a dedicated agent thread responsibility for monitoring sources and surfacing meaningful changes.
  • Reviewable actions: Inspect evidence, edit drafts, approve exact actions, and provide feedback through interactive cards.
  • Deliberate learning: Review and edit proposed policy improvements before they affect future work.
  • On Your Mind and Chronicle Pulse: Bring workspace-level context into feeds while keeping it separate from source evidence and authorization.
  • Codex and Claude lanes: Operate feeds through dedicated Codex threads or optionally route work to an armed Claude Code session.
  • iPhone companion: Review projected feed data through a private Supabase-backed native app while the Mac remains authoritative.
  • Launch hardening: Stronger mutation authentication, approval verification, transactional storage, backup validation, token redaction, and CI coverage.
  • Packaged releases: Self-contained binaries for macOS Apple Silicon, macOS Intel, and Linux x64, with SHA-256 checksums.

Breaking changes from v0.1.0

  • The product, executable, archives, and primary command have been renamed from attention to tend.
  • Pre-release compatibility aliases and the launchd runner have been removed.
  • The agent-facing CLI contract is now version 0.3.
  • The SQLite schema is now version 14. Back up ~/.attention before upgrading.

The local data directory remains ~/.attention.

Installation

Download the archive for your platform, verify it with the accompanying .sha256 file, unpack it, and run:

./tend start
./tend health

Then open http://127.0.0.1:4332 in Codex Desktop’s in-app browser.

The macOS binaries are not yet Developer ID signed or notarized, so Gatekeeper may require explicit approval on first launch.

Read the README and Tend Manual for feed setup, operating guidance, security boundaries, and optional iPhone configuration.

@github-actions github-actions released this 08 Jul 18:08

Tend v0.1.0 is the initial local-first open-source snapshot of the project.

Historical release: This version is retained for reproducibility and is not recommended for new installations. For the current public release, use v0.2.0.

Highlights

  • Local executable serving the Tend UI and API
  • SQLite-backed workflow state with readable filesystem mirrors
  • CLI contract for Codex-operated feeds, cards, sweeps, approvals, and learning
  • Packaged binaries for macOS and Linux
  • MIT license, contributor documentation, security guidance, and release tooling

Naming note

This snapshot predates the final Tend naming. Its archives and executable are named attention. Beginning with v0.2.0, the public binary and archives are named tend.

Tend is experimental software with no guarantees of stability, compatibility, data retention, or continued development.
