Oxide v0.0.30

Reasoning round-trip on the ChatGPT provider (the model keeps its train of thought across agentic rounds — faster, fewer tokens). Writes are confined to the workspace even in Full access (no more invented sibling folders). Cursor-style polish: composer focus glow, streaming caret, springy send, panel slide-ins.

Install: open the dmg, drag Oxide to Applications, then run once: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Oxide.app

Oxide v0.0.29

Reliability sweep: tool calls are structurally paired on every provider (no more re-plan loops or dangling calls), a doom-loop guard stops identical repeated calls, and every external wait is bounded (provider HTTP, hooks, MCP connects, CLI children) so the agent can no longer hang forever. GUI: composer un-wedges on engine errors, @mention no longer lags on big repos, sticky-bottom autoscroll, two-click restore confirm, menu/card animations.

Install: open the dmg, drag Oxide to Applications, then run once: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Oxide.app

Oxide v0.0.28

TUI now opens on your last conversation (resumes context + renders the previous session) instead of a blank screen. Builds on v0.0.27 (project-aware context, TUI 60fps redraws, plain-text paste).

Install: open the dmg, drag Oxide to Applications, then run once: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Oxide.app

Oxide v0.0.27

Project-aware context (detect stack + shallow file tree so the agent knows the framework and stops inventing standalone files). TUI: 60fps coalesced redraws, bracketed paste, resize. Composer: paste as plain text (uses Oxide's font, not the source app's). Builds on v0.0.26.

Install: open the dmg, drag Oxide to Applications, then run once: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Oxide.app

Oxide v0.0.26

Sidebar now groups chats under their own project (synara-style). Agent follows through — no longer stops after a single edit; completes every planned step (typecheck/lint/tests) and checks other call-sites before ending. Builds on v0.0.25's fast semantic codebase index, todo tool, and tighter prompt.

Install: open the dmg, drag Oxide to Applications, then run once: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Oxide.app

Oxide v0.0.25

Fast codebase index (persistent + incremental) with hybrid semantic rerank (local model2vec, no ONNX); new todo checklist tool; tighter tool descriptions + system prompt; structured tool-call pairing fixes; preview pane + element picker; scoped auto-verify; many UI/stability fixes.

Install: open the dmg, drag Oxide to Applications, then run once: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Oxide.app

Oxide v0.0.24

Fix composer placeholder sticking to typed text; multi-project sidebar. Install: open dmg → Applications → xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine.

Oxide v0.0.23

Multi-project sidebar: see and switch between every opened folder and its chats. Install: open dmg → Applications → xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine.

Oxide v0.0.22

Reliability + opencode-aligned fixes: agent now actually edits (loop nudge + edit tool + anti-laziness prompt), can't hang (shell/MCP/web timeouts), auto context window per model, stays in the selected repo, deleting a chat sticks, readable light-theme tool output, no composer double-submit, copy button on tool output, sidebar title tooltips. Install: open dmg → Applications → xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine.

Oxide v0.0.21

Fixes: agent stays in the selected repo (no $HOME wandering), deleting a chat sticks (no resurrection), readable tool output in light theme. Install: open dmg → Applications → xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine.
