Recon 0.2.1

macOS · Apple Silicon (arm64) · English / 简体中文

Continue your work

• Recon restores the last page used in each project, with focus on the visible page. Repeater drafts survive restart, and reopened tabs keep their target, wrapping and response history.
• Dashboard now shows project status, prioritized pending findings and recent work that opens the original record. Running tasks appear only when active; event history is expandable.

Work with agents

• MCP calls show arguments, progress, duration and full results directly in MCP. HTTP details use the same Request / Response components as Repeater and history.
• Select an HTTP exchange to save project context with notes. Agents can read the selected context through MCP tools and resources.
• Register shell tools with usage instructions and typed parameters; enablement and defaults belong to each project. manage_tool provides list, add, update and disable.
• MCP now exposes 35 built-in tools. Encoding and decoding use encode_text / decode_text with a format; list tools support pagination. Resources and prompts are available to clients.

Interface and reliability

• Chinese and English interface options, consistent GPUI Kit controls, improved Chinese input and caret positioning, compact context menus and clearer action buttons.
• Readable Markdown previews, severity text labels and separate list/detail navigation in narrow Findings and MCP windows.
• Scope is managed in Target; Settings opens on the main window's display. Intruder is hidden from navigation. New blank tabs no longer report an invalid URL before a target is entered.
• Copy actions live in context menus. Tool editing has a visible Close action and Save / Discard / Cancel for drafts.
• Failed saves preserve work for retry; damaged sessions keep recovery copies. History refreshes are throttled under traffic.

Connection and approval changes

• Sending and proxy control default to Allow; Scope enforcement and request limits are optional. Existing configured preferences are preserved.
• Under Ask, new or changed shell commands require review; metadata, defaults and availability changes do not prompt again. Exact approved commands can run again in that project.
• MCP remains bound to loopback with bearer-token authentication and Origin checks. Proxy remains local by default; LAN access is an explicit setting.
• Debug builds use separate data directories and default ports 18080 / 19877. The release app retains Proxy 8080 / MCP 9877.

Validation

992 tests passed; six optional network/real-clock checks were not run. The arm64 app passed code-signature verification. Interface snapshots use synthetic sample data.
