v0.15.0

Hersir 0.15.0 is GizAi under its new name, with a new logo and look, a team per project and team templates.

What's new

• GizAi is now Hersir. The app, its tray, its notifications and messages, the agents' prompts and the docs say Hersir, and the longboat H is its logo and icon. Your data, settings, keychain entries and the gizai command stay as they are, and the code now lives at github.com/Yotech-AI/hersir.
• It updates into Hersir by itself. On macOS the app is now Hersir.app, and on Windows and Linux the Start menu and the launcher show Hersir. The update removes the old Gizai.app or Gizai.lnk.
• Gold means it needs you. Review and Deploy, the badges that need you and the Inbox count are gold now, and In progress and warnings are yellow.
• A team per project. Each project picks its team, and the board shows one team at a time.
• Team templates. Export a team to a file, and make a new team from a template, with a check before it is made.

Update: press Update to 0.15.0 above Company in the sidebar, or Settings → Updates → Check now.

What's Changed

• GA-225: Teams: a project picks its team, the board shows one team at a time, and the Team Lead's tools name the team by @jefsev in #181

• GA-227: Team templates (frontend): New team from a template, the check before it's made, and Export on the Team page (TT) by @jefsev in #183
• GA-233: Installs and updates: the app is called Hersir, comes from github.com/Yotech-AI/hersir, and an installed Gizai updates into it by @jefsev in #187
• GA-231: The name in the app's screens: Hersir instead of Gizai in every text a person reads by @jefsev in #186
• GA-230: Hersir's look in the app: the longboat H as logo, app icon and tray icon, and gold as the brand and needs-you colour by @jefsev in #189

v0.14.0

GizAi 0.14.0 lets a card build on other cards, so a plan of cards runs through in order by itself.

What's new

• Cards that build on others. Name the cards a card builds on, on its card page or through the Team Lead: it waits in its column until they are merged, then starts by itself. The board shows "Waits for" on a waiting card, and the card page shows Builds on and Needed by.
• Runs end when the agent is done. When the agent's CLI doesn't exit after its final message, for example because a server it started still runs, GizAi ends the run after 3 quiet minutes and keeps its result, instead of waiting for the time limit.
• The one-line install, proven. CI now installs GizAi through the one line on Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch Linux, openSUSE Tumbleweed, macOS and Windows whenever the installers change, and checks gizai.app's own lines after each release.
• Backups, under the hood. GizAi can now make snapshots in the format GizAi Cloud will use. Their Settings section comes in a later release.
• Fixed: on Linux, pasting while nothing is copied no longer crashes GizAi (WebKitGTK 2.54.1), and the install check names the right packages on openSUSE.

• GA-222: Linux: keep WebKitGTK 2.54.1 from crashing Gizai on a paste with an empty clipboard by @jefsev in #175
• GA-221: Runs: end a run whose CLI doesn't exit after its final message, and keep its result by @jefsev in #177
• GA-223: Install anywhere: CI proves the one-line install on Linux (Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, openSUSE), macOS and Windows, and gizai.app's lines after each release by @jefsev in #176
• GA-216: Backups (backend): snapshots in a backups folder, on a schedule, in the format Gizai Cloud's backups and sync will use (BK, format 1) by @jefsev in #174
• GA-228: Builds on: a card waits until the cards it builds on are merged, then starts by itself by @jefsev in #178

v0.13.0

GizAi 0.13.0 makes far fewer GitHub calls, stays quick with many agents at work, and keeps the screenshots your agents take on their cards.

What's new

• Far fewer GitHub calls. The pull request check asks git first and GitHub only when something moved, with one light call per repository, so GizAi no longer uses up GitHub's hourly limit for you and your agents.
• Faster with agents at work. Commands no longer wait on the window, reads go on while agents write, run and chat output reach the window in batches, lists load lighter, and waiting cards start side by side. The window reloads only what a change touched, and long lists draw only what is in sight.
• Screenshots on the card. GizAi serves a card's branch for the agents' browser and keeps a run's screenshots on its card, in a new Screenshots tab with a sign on the board. Old ones are cleared.
• Test runs at once. A project setting for how many of its test runs may build at the same time, so a heavy project's QA runs don't all build together.
• The Team Lead reads files you put on a project, card or client.
• Fixed: the agents' browser starts in long worktree paths, whatever a run leaves behind (such as a browser) ends with the run, a live run's log no longer pulls the card page back to it, and the @ picker puts an exact card ID first and links Done cards too.
