CLI Pulse 1.43.0 (build 96)

A cleanup release. The headline is that the Companion CLI helper stops asking you to install an
update it could never actually apply.

The "Update available" that wouldn't go away

If your helper is the one built into CLI Pulse, Settings could show a permanent
"Update available → 1.30.0" that the Update button never cleared. Installing the standalone helper
package didn't clear it either, because that package doesn't replace a helper that ships inside the
app.

  • Built-in helpers now say so. Settings shows "Built into CLI Pulse — updates automatically when
    you update the app", and the install/uninstall controls that only apply to the standalone package
    are hidden.
  • The built-in helper is swapped the moment you update. Previously the old helper process kept
    running until your next login, so an updated app could still be talking to the previous version.
    Now it is restarted as part of the update.
  • Standalone-package users are unaffected. If you installed the helper package yourself, real
    updates are still offered exactly as before — only the false prompt is gone.

Also in this release

  • DEVID builds are now genuinely Apple-Silicon-only, matching what the download has always claimed.
  • The helper package ships a bundled tmux, so wrapped sessions no longer depend on your having one
    installed.
  • Better first-run diagnostics: the app now records which version it is running and, when a provider
    produces no usage data, whether that is because the CLI isn't installed, is switched off, or the
    read actually failed. This is what lets us fix "CLI Pulse shows nothing" reports without guesswork.

Requires macOS 13 or later. Apple Silicon.
