Tabatha Desktop Companion 0.3.1 — Windows only

The optional desktop companion for the Tabatha browser extension. It watches which
application and window is in front while your browser is not, so time spent in
Figma, Excel, a terminal, or a call is accounted for instead of logged as idle.

This is the built artifact only. The companion source is a separate repository; only
the installer is hosted here. This release channel (desktop-v*) is distinct from the
extension update channel (ext-v*).

What's new in 0.3.1

  • Hardened device pairing. The local WebSocket bridge on 127.0.0.1:9147 now
    requires a one-tap pairing token exchange (from the extension's Settings pairing card
    or the tray's "Pair Extension" action) before accepting a connection — the 0.2.0
    known limitation ("does not yet authenticate local callers") is resolved. Still
    loopback-only and never reachable from your network.

Platform

  • Windows 10/11, x64 only. The window monitor is bound to Win32 and the optional
    capture engine draws through GDI — macOS and Linux are a port, not a build flag.

Privacy

  • Tracks metadata only by default: foreground app name + window title, timestamps,
    durations. No keystrokes, no page/document content.
  • Ships an optional OS-level screen capture engine that is off by default. When
    on, frames are redacted (fail-closed), written only to your own machine,
    never uploaded, and auto-deleted (30 days, or 90 days while clocked in for an
    organization). See the extension's PRIVACY.md.

Not signed

  • The installer is unsigned. Windows SmartScreen will warn on first run
    ("More info → Run anyway"). Code signing is not yet configured.

Install

  • Download the installer below, run it, and the companion appears in your system tray.
  • Verify the download against the published SHA-256.
