The app can now update itself, and answers render properly.

Updating

Lens checks for new versions on launch and offers them in the panel. Press Update now and it downloads the installer itself, with progress. On Windows it installs and restarts. On macOS it opens the disk image for you to drag across, because replacing a running app needs a signing certificate this build does not have.

Nothing downloads or installs without you choosing it.

New

  • Slash commands. Type / in the message box for /screen, /summarise, /translate, /reply, /export, /new, /model, /docs, /web and more. Arrow keys to choose, Enter to run.
  • Export a chat as Markdown, plain text or JSON.
  • Rate an answer. A thumbs up or down under any answer. This is not a statistic: a rejected answer is never reused as context again, and an approved one is preferred.
  • Light theme, plus an option to follow your system.
  • API keys in Settings. Add or change a key for Claude, Gemini, OpenAI or Groq at any time, not only during first run. Keys are encrypted with your OS keychain.
  • Model server address in Settings, so you can point Lens at another computer's GPU.
  • Shortcuts reference in Settings, showing the right keys for your platform.

Fixed

  • Answers were printed as raw markdown, so **bold** appeared with the asterisks.
  • Documents can be removed one at a time rather than only all at once.
  • A model that is not installed now names the server and lists what is available, instead of a bare 404.

Notes

Not signed with a paid certificate, so on first run: macOS right-click the app and choose Open; Windows choose More info then Run anyway.
