nucode 0.8.2

• Settings: every Settings page has a new layout: named groups, plain labels with one line of help, collapsed rows that show their current value, and a Save changes button on the pages that stage edits. Server, Browser, Models & Agents, Shortcuts and Projects were reorganized around what you are trying to do.
• Attachments: drag files from your file manager onto the composer to attach them. Images show as thumbnails above the message box instead of file names.
• Scrolling: you can scroll up through a conversation while a reply is being written. The view follows new text only when you are at the bottom.
• Project menu: right-click a project for Pin, Edit, Section, Reveal in Finder, Archive chats and Remove project. Remove project deletes the project's chats, checkpoints and engine data from nucode, and says so; the folder and its files stay on disk. Sections group projects in the sidebar under names you choose. Right-click a section's header to rename or delete it.
• Thread menu: right-click a thread for Rename, Pin, Mark as unread, Project, Section, Fork, Share, Copy, Open in new window, Archive and Permanently delete. Rename, Pin, Mark as unread and Archive have shortcuts you can change in Settings → Shortcuts. Moving a thread to another project and deleting it permanently work for pi and omp threads. The Copy items show a short notice naming what was copied, and Fork into a new worktree is left out when worktrees are turned off in Settings.
• Thread windows: Open in new window shows one thread in its own window, with its transcript and composer. It closes when the thread is archived or deleted and follows the thread when it moves.
• Closed windows: a closed thread, About or browser sign-in window is freed. Before, each one stayed behind as an invisible window until nucode quit.
• Long titles: a project or thread title too long for the sidebar scrolls to its end when you point at it.
• Session rail: the Context row at the top is gone. The Context section already shows how full the window is.
• Dictation: a keyboard shortcut that begins with the hold-to-talk key no longer starts a recording.
• Dialogs: the window behind a dialog is dimmed instead of blacked out.
• Right-click: an area with no menu of its own no longer shows the web view's Reload menu. Fields, links, pictures, the terminal and selected text keep theirs.
• Keychain prompt: when macOS asks for your keychain password before a pi or omp engine can start, as it can after a newly installed build, the conversation shows "Waiting for macOS keychain access…" instead of "Working…", and other threads and the session rail keep responding while the dialog is open.
• Model switching: a thread that switched to a Claude model after another model had reasoned in it could fail on every turn with a content-filter stop. The earlier model's reasoning is no longer replayed to the new model; its answers and tool results still are.

This is a macOS-only release. The Windows installer is still the one in the v0.8.0 release.

nucode 0.8.1

• Layout fix: a checkpoint warning could push the whole window down, hiding the composer buttons and Settings behind an empty box at the top that could not be closed. The warning now floats under the title bar with a working Dismiss button.
• Response style: Settings → Composer has a Response style: Concise, Standard (the new default) or In depth. Standard and In depth tell pi and omp agents to keep working until the request is handled, check their work and write as much as the work needs, in place of pi's built-in "be concise" rule.
• Steer queued messages: during a running turn, hover a queued message and choose Steer to send it into that turn right away. The row's menu has Steer now too.
• Context: the session rail shows what fills the context window and how far it is from auto-compact, with a Compact session button. /context-size sets the window nucode assumes for the current model, and /autocompact sets when pi and omp compact.
• Web search: agents have background web_search and web_fetch tools that work without opening the browser pane. Search goes through the provider chosen in Settings → Browser, SearXNG first.
• Dictation: transcription runs on Metal, Cancel stops it, and it says when it hears nothing. The voice wave shows in Chat and Work.
• Errors: a reply the provider stops with a content filter says so, as does a model your proxy has paused for a cooldown. Stopping an engine on purpose is no longer logged as a crash, and only the selected provider's key is required.
• Title bar: the session rail toggle is a list icon at the start of the pane toggles, and the browser toggle is the panel icon at the end. Log has its own icon and Run names the launch script.

nucode 0.8.0

• New name: the app is now called nucode, with bundle identifier dev.nucode.desktop and a new GitHub home at aiden0rchad/nucode.
• Packaging: release bundles no longer contain Python cache files, and bundle checks reject embedded builder home paths.
• Chat: with steering on, a message sent while a reply runs stops that reply and is answered straight away, instead of waiting for the whole reply to finish.
• Work Trash: deleting a task moves it to Trash, where it can be restored for 30 days.
• Work composer: a message waiting for the model shows in the task's transcript instead of staying in the message box, and returns to the box if you stop the launch.
