v0.1.3 - Agent ops, skills, and image support

What's new

• Added Agent Ops tools for long-running sessions: persistent goals, plans, checkpoints, session health, session summaries, and bounded handoff helpers.
• Added local skill support with --skill, --skills, --skill-root, --list-skills, plus list_skills and read_skill tools.
• Skills now persist across resumed sessions; resuming with --skill pbc refreshes the saved system prompt and stores the skill list in session JSON.
• Added view_image for workspace screenshots, diagrams, photos, and UI images, returning metadata, dimensions, and data URLs when small enough.
• Added web search and fetch tooling so agents can search current information and read page text.
• Added broader workspace/repo tools: batch file reads, search, glob, tree, stats, git status/diff/log/blame, cache, and safer shell aliasing.
• Improved TUI/session reliability, including repaired tool-call history on resume and sequential execution for shell-style tools.
• Added dummy smoke fixtures and project instructions for testing wrapper tools.

Verification

• npm run check
• npm run smoke
• npm run build:exe
• Verified global d --print-system --skill pbc loads the PBC skill.

v0.1.2

What's new

Quiet outfile mode

dsw now supports silent Markdown output for detached subagent workflows:

dsw -p "inspect this repo" --permission full --no-output --outfile result.md

Default outfile content includes:

• Final assistant response
• Files touched by edit tools

Add --full-chat to write the whole transcript, including tool calls, tool results, and reasoning content.

Also included

• --outfile alias for --output
• --no-output validation that requires an output file
• Resume flow now renders recent session history before prompting

v0.1.1 — standalone exe build

What's new

Standalone executables

The installer now builds real .exe files using Node.js SEA (Single Executable Applications) and esbuild:

• dsw.exe / d.exe — interactive agent
• dsd.exe — detached runner
• dswait.exe — output file poller

Exes are copied to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\dsw\ and that directory is added to your user PATH automatically — no npm, no Node.js required to run after install.

How it works

1. esbuild bundles each ESM entry point → single CJS file (local imports inlined, node: builtins kept external)
2. node --experimental-sea-config compiles the bundle into a .blob
3. postject injects the blob into a copy of node.exe
4. d.exe is a copy of dsw.exe for the short alias

Build it yourself

npm install          # installs esbuild + postject
npm run build:exe    # produces dist/exe/*.exe
