What's New in v0.28.45

A new theme, a thread panel view for the Inbox, session names in the To picker, and thread links that open in place. 26 PRs.

Plannotator Inbox

Thread panel view

Pick Keep thread panel open in the list's ⋮ menu to keep a thread panel beside your list, as Google Chat does. Opening a thread fills the panel and the list stays put. The wide view is still the default. #2479

Session names in the To picker

The To picker shows the names you give your sessions: /rename in Claude Code, and session names in Pi and OpenCode 2. #2467

Thread links open in place

A link to another thread opens it in the same Inbox window, from message text, questions and Markdown files, instead of a new tab. #2493

Comment on diagram parts

You can comment on a part of a Mermaid or Graphviz diagram inside a message, as in plan review. #2469

Your phone over the tailnet

Your own phone over the tailnet now works like the computer for updates, Settings → Agents, the Board switch and the voice key. #2461

plannotator inbox call

Run any Inbox tool action from a script: plannotator inbox call <action> '<json>'. Agents use it to tidy the Inbox in one script instead of many tool calls. #2462

Behavior change: the Inbox no longer has wait_for_reply. An agent that can be woken gets your reply as a new turn, as before. Others are told to go on with their work and read the thread later. An older plugin that still calls it gets a clear error. #2477

Smaller changes

• On a phone, New message has Send in the bottom row, and the header folds over the keyboard. #2466
• Send no longer waits behind a long dictated answer to a question. #2490
• Archive moved from the thread header into the ⋯ menu. #2481
• New message takes dictation, as the reply box does. #2482
• The comment count opens the list of comments. #2478
• Issue and PR preview cards show single line breaks, as GitHub does. #2488
• A desktop picture stays clear of the option card, and the card is slimmer. #2476
• On a phone, Show tools brings the reply back working. #2484
• The open questions pill in the full-screen composer stays on one line. #2483
• The first-run line no longer keeps a purple outline. #2489

Plannotator

Plannotator Modern theme

A new built-in theme with light and dark modes. Pick it in Settings → Theme in plan review and code review, or Settings → General → Colors in the Inbox. Nothing changes unless you pick it. #2498

Smaller changes

• In Claude Code, a code review "Ask this session" question still waiting when you run /clear no longer runs in the new conversation. #2503
• @plannotator/ui 0.57.0 adds a shared floating chat window and richer chat transcripts for apps built on it. #2452, #2492

Install / Update

macOS / Linux:

curl -fsSL https://plannotator.ai/install.sh | bash

Windows:

irm https://plannotator.ai/install.ps1 | iex

Claude Code Plugin: The plugin and the plannotator binary update separately, so run the install script above as well. In a terminal:

claude plugin marketplace update plannotator
claude plugin update plannotator@plannotator

Then restart Claude Code. Inside Claude Code, run /plugin marketplace update plannotator, then open /plugin → Installed → plannotator → Update now.

Pi:

pi update npm:@plannotator/pi-extension

OpenCode: Re-run the install script above. It also clears the OpenCode 2 plugin cache.
