✨ What's new

  • Boofer speaks English: the ghost, the settings, the tray and the alerts
    • Every text in the app is in English: bubble, cards, little phrases, settings, tray menu, notifications and the dangerous-command warnings.
    • Costs are shown in dollars, at the official API prices.
    • Numbers, dates and times use the English format.
    • The release notes and the changelog are written in English too.
  • Changelog everywhere and a big-screen settings layout
    • Release notes are written from the commits and added to every GitHub release; CHANGELOG.md lists every version.
    • Settings → What's new: your version's changes, all the previous ones, highlighted right after an update.
    • Maximized settings window: sidebar with the profile, tabs and version, pages in two columns.
    • Updates for copies that don't know how they were installed now use the setup.exe (no admin rights).
  • Double-click opens Boofer: the shortcut, the exe and the tray icon
    • Launching Boofer by hand (or clicking it again while it runs) opens its window, not only the ghost.
    • Left click on the tray icon opens Boofer; the menu moves to the right click.
    • Starting with Windows stays quiet: the login entry is rewritten with an --autostart flag.
  • Updates no longer lose the app after the Booffer → Boofer rename
    • An update never creates shortcuts, and the old « Booffer » ones were removed: the new version was installed but impossible to find. The Start menu shortcut (and the desktop one if there was one) is now recreated at launch when missing.
    • The MSI upgrade code is pinned, so a future rename can't install a second copy.

Full history: CHANGELOG.md, or Settings → What's new in the app.

Windows 10 / 11, pick one:

  • Boofer_x.y.z_x64-setup.exe: installer (recommended), no admin rights needed
  • Boofer_x.y.z_x64_en-US.msi: MSI installer, for the whole PC
  • Boofer.exe: portable version, nothing to install, double-click and go

The installers add WebView2 if it's missing. Nothing else to install: no Node, no Rust.
Already installed? Boofer updates itself (Settings → Check for updates).
For Claude Code: Settings → Claude Code → Connect.
