Upgrade notes:

  • The bundled core is still 0.56.0 (control-plane protocol 30), so a remote server on 0.56.0 keeps working.
  • Configuration and request history are kept.

MCP page: the servers table now has a column only for the clients found on this computer: those whose own directory or MCP file exists, or whose MCP file was chosen by hand. It used to draw all eight supported clients, which did not fit the window. The clients that were not detected are listed in one line under the table, where Choose location… points the app at a client installed somewhere else.

Toolbar: the page name is always shown in the window toolbar, next to the sidebar toggle, instead of at the top of each page.

Downloads

Platform File
macOS, Apple silicon ThinkWatch-Lite-2026.9.26-arm64.dmg
Windows, x64 ThinkWatch-Lite-2026.9.26-x64-setup.exe
Windows, ARM64 ThinkWatch-Lite-2026.9.26-arm64-setup.exe
Linux, x86_64 ThinkWatch-Lite-2026.9.26-x86_64.AppImage
Linux, aarch64 ThinkWatch-Lite-2026.9.26-aarch64.AppImage

Each file is published with a .sha256 file beside it. latest.json is the manifest for in-app updates, and install.sh is the Linux install script.

On macOS, Homebrew installs the same disk image:

brew install --cask thinkwatchproject/tap/thinkwatch-lite

On Linux, the install script downloads the AppImage for the machine's architecture, checks its SHA-256 and installs it as ~/Applications/ThinkWatch-Lite.AppImage:

curl -fsSL https://github.com/ThinkWatchProject/ThinkWatch-Lite/releases/latest/download/install.sh | sh

Both commands install the latest release. First-launch steps for each platform, such as removing the quarantine attribute from a copy downloaded on macOS, are described in the README.

Verifying a download

A .sha256 file holds the SHA-256 of the file followed by its name. With both files in the current directory, on macOS:

shasum -a 256 -c ThinkWatch-Lite-2026.9.26-arm64.dmg.sha256

On Linux:

sha256sum -c ThinkWatch-Lite-2026.9.26-x86_64.AppImage.sha256

On Windows, in PowerShell, the following prints True when the installer matches:

(Get-FileHash .\ThinkWatch-Lite-2026.9.26-x64-setup.exe).Hash -eq (Get-Content .\ThinkWatch-Lite-2026.9.26-x64-setup.exe.sha256).Split()[0]

The Homebrew cask and the Linux install script check the SHA-256 themselves.
