v1.3.0

Privacy-first product analytics, About branding, open-in Finder/Terminal,
AI commit messages, and a full developer wiki.

Highlights

  • PostHog analytics from the Go process. GA4 and Microsoft Clarity are
    gone from the desktop app (they remain on the landing site only). Every
    user action already crosses the Wails binding boundary, so instrumentation
    lives there — events carry real outcomes and durations, work offline via a
    disk queue, and never leave the machine when the PostHog key is absent
    (local/fork builds).
  • Settings → Privacy. One switch controls anonymous usage reporting.
    Off stops collection immediately and deletes anything still buffered on
    disk. Policy: docs/privacy.md.
  • Settings → About. Version, build date, Workvar vendor links, platform,
    and Go version in one pane.
  • Open in Finder / Terminal. Project header actions open the project
    root in the host file manager or a terminal (labels adapt per OS).
  • AI commit messages. Git commit box can draft a message from the local
    Ollama model using a redacted diff context — nothing leaves your machine.
  • Developer wiki. Architecture, API, data model, contribution guides,
    and how to publish remote banners:
    https://github.com/canaryGrapher/JumpStart/wiki

Added

  • internal/analytics — consent, redaction, offline queue, PostHog transport;
    CI injects PostHogAPIKey / PostHogHost via ldflags (empty = no-op).
  • internal/opener + Open Actions UI for file manager / terminal.
  • About API and UI; Workvar product metadata in version.go / wails.json.
  • AI commit helper (ai_commit.go, internal/gitops/commitctx.go) and
    CommitBox UI.
  • docs/wiki/ source + scripts/publish-wiki.sh to sync the GitHub Wiki.
  • Landing-site engagement: page views, scroll depth, section visibility,
    exit summary, and named CTA events (still separate from desktop PostHog).

Changed

  • Frontend analytics is a thin bridge to Go (TrackEvent*); no GA/Clarity
    in the desktop bundle.
  • Release build stamps BuildDate alongside Version for the About pane.
  • Landing Privacy page and FAQ copy aligned with the desktop privacy model.

Upgrade notes

  • Existing 1.2.x users will see the in-app update banner and can update without
    a manual download.
  • Analytics is on by default in release builds; turn it off anytime under
    Settings → Privacy. Builds without a PostHog key send nothing.
  • macOS builds remain ad-hoc signed but not notarized; first launch still needs
    a one-time System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway approval.
