v1.51.0

[1.51.0] — 2026-06-08

Fixed

• The Files panel no longer spikes CPU on very large folders (e.g. your home directory or the filesystem root). It previously watched the entire folder tree recursively for changes — on a huge tree that means reacting to every file change anywhere on disk. It now watches only the directories you can actually see (the current folder plus the ones you've expanded), adding and removing watches as you expand and collapse, so the cost scales with what's on screen rather than what's on disk.
• The Git panel no longer spikes CPU on very large folders. Repo discovery is now bounded and cached: it skips system and dependency directories, finds repos breadth-first so shallow repos surface quickly, stops cleanly on huge trees instead of crawling everything, and reuses earlier scans — opening a subfolder of an already-scanned folder costs nothing, and scanning a parent reuses what it already knows about its children. Status and fetch updates run with a capped number of parallel git calls, and in folders with many repos (50+) live polling is paused in favor of a manual Refresh. The Git panel only does this work while it's open.
• Sessions now come back after a reboot, not just after quitting and reopening. Persistent (tmux) sessions live in a background process that a shutdown or restart kills, so previously they were lost on the next launch. Clave now keeps each session's details on disk and, when it finds the tmux process gone, re-opens the tabs in their original folders automatically. Claude Code sessions also resume their previous conversation.
