Taurus 0.1.7 — Hover flourish, bundled font & portable branding
Taurus 0.1.7 — Hover flourish, bundled font & portable branding
Polish for white-label builds, and an easy way to ship a pre-branded launcher.
✨ Text-scramble (garble) hover effect
A short letter-scramble that resolves to the real label, on hover — on the
sidebar buttons, project cards and tab titles. Generic but gated per skin:
on by default only for a branded theme (html[data-skin="brand"]);
branding.json garble:false turns it off.
🔤 Bundled UI font + font field
IBM Plex Mono (OFL-1.1) now ships with the app, with a --ui-font CSS
variable (defaults to the system stack). A new branding.json font field
switches the whole UI font with no code change, fully offline.
📦 Portable / pre-branded distribution
branding.json is now read from %APPDATA%\Taurus\ or from the folder next
to taurus.exe, and a relative logo path resolves against that folder. So a
self-contained, pre-branded build is just a zip you hand out:
MyBrand Agent Launcher/
taurus.exe (rename freely)
branding.json ("logo": "logo.png", relative)
logo.png
Unzip and run — no setup. A branded logo also renders full sidebar width with no
drop-shadow, so a wordmark looks crisp. To rebrand the installer name too, build
with a Tauri config overlay (--config).
Notes
- Windows-only (ConPTY + WebView2). Requires the Claude Code CLI (
claude)
and/or Antigravity (agy) on yourPATH. - Existing
projects.json, settings andbranding.jsonkeep working unchanged.
