v0.6.5 — Sessions survive Desktop quit

v0.6.5 — Sessions survive Desktop quit

Critical fix

Desktop was starting client-owned RPC workers. The Prime Agent daemon cleans those up about 30 seconds after the UI disconnects, so sessions looked "not running" after quit/reopen.

Now

• New/resumed Desktop chats use resident daemon workers
• Quit still detaches only (does not kill agents)
• Reopen Desktop and reattach to the same live work

Also

• Live Agents panel improvements
• Missing/deleted sessions fail closed (no accidental recreate)

Download

Unsigned Apple Silicon zip. Right-click → Open (Gatekeeper). Needs Prime Agent installed.

v0.6.4 — Live Agents panel (critical)

v0.6.4 — Live Agents panel

Critical fix: sub-agents should show in the Agents panel within about a second of spawning, not after ~60s.

Changes

• Live rlm_child_update events paint the panel immediately
• No longer buffer those events until the parent chat send finishes
• Live running children win over stale disk "deleted" rows
• Faster poll + direct roster file watch while a turn is live

Download

Unsigned Apple Silicon zip attached.

Right-click app → Open (Gatekeeper). Needs Prime Agent installed.

v0.6.2 — Open source macOS client for Prime Agent

Changelog

0.6.2 — 2026-08-10

Highlights

• Closing Prime Desktop detaches from agents instead of stopping them. Live work keeps running; reopen the app to reattach.
• You can switch sessions and start a new chat while a reply is still streaming. The old chat keeps working in the background.
• Closing a split pane no longer demands that you stop the live reply first.
• Composer text is remembered per session when you navigate away and come back (until you send it).
• Chat view sticks to the latest output while you follow along, and lets go when you scroll up.
• New Agents dashboard: live workers, child sessions, and related resident sessions.
• Sidebar session clicks always stay single-pane. Split View only opens from the explicit split controls.
• Local install helper: scripts/install-prime-desktop.sh (build, clean quit, install into Applications, reopen).
• Open-source pack: MIT license, security notes, contributing guide, package metadata.

Docs & first-run (flagship)

• Full install guide, troubleshooting, roadmap under docs/
• npm run doctor environment check
• Stronger README with hero, stranger install path, demo checklist
• First-run empty state with setup steps
• Code of conduct + support docs
• GitHub secret scanning enabled on the public repo

• npm run ui-smoke — pass
