HiveMinds 1.8

What's new

• HiveMinds Host: run projects and agents on another machine on your local network, such as a Linux PC. Install hiveminds-host there and its projects and agents appear in HiveMinds next to This Mac.
• Pairing: hosts on your network show in the sidebar. Press Pair…, compare the fingerprint, type the 6-digit code the host shows, and say yes on the host. You can also pair by address in Settings > Hosts.
• Agents on a host work like local ones: start them, watch their terminal, type, answer permission prompts and plans, see Changes and History, with the host's name on each tile and card. Quitting HiveMinds leaves them running.
• Sharing an agent: several devices can watch the same agent. One types at a time, and others see who it is and can press Take Over.
• Stays on your network: hosts accept private addresses only, connections are encrypted both ways, and every device needs the code and your approval. Agents on a host can run anything its user can, so pair only devices you trust.
• For now, meetings, Split up, shell and browser tabs, attachments and pull requests are for projects on This Mac.
• HiveMinds is now open source under the MIT licence.

Install

The app: download HiveMinds-1.8.0.dmg, open it and drag HiveMinds into Applications. The app is not notarised, so the first time, right-click it and choose Open.

The host (optional, Linux x86_64): download hiveminds-host-0.5.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz and follow the README.txt inside. It needs glibc 2.38 or newer, git, Claude Code logged in on that machine, and Avahi so your Mac can find it (without Avahi, pair by address). If a firewall is on, allow 7420/tcp and 5353/udp.
