Houston v0.4.18
Houston 0.4.18
New ways to organize your missions, clearer scheduling and integrations, and a reliability pass so problems actually get reported when something goes wrong.
Added
- Drag and drop missions between columns. Rearrange mission cards across your board columns by dragging them, so the board matches how you actually work.
- Friendlier schedule picker. Setting a custom schedule for a routine now uses a simple interval picker instead of raw cron-style entry.
- Search highlights in archived missions. When you search archived missions, the matching words are now highlighted so the result is easy to spot.
Changed
- Clearer integration cards. An integration that still needs you to sign in now says "Waiting for you to connect," so the next step is obvious.
- Formatted update notes. The "update available" dialog now renders these release notes with proper formatting instead of raw text.
- Clearer problem reports. When Houston hits an error, the follow-up message now says "report sent" with a short reference code. Tap Copy to grab it and send it our way so we can pin down exactly what happened.
Fixed
- Routines run on the day you picked. A weekly routine now fires on the correct day of the week instead of being off by a day.
- Mission Control matches your boards. The chats and missions shown in Mission Control now line up with what is on each agent's board.
- Routine editor stays correct when you switch agents. Opening the routine editor after switching agents no longer shows leftover settings from the previous agent.
- Archived mission search lines up. The archived-mission search now sits and behaves consistently with the rest of the board.
- Problem reports carry the real details (behind the scenes). We fixed our build pipeline so crash reports point at the actual place a problem happened instead of unreadable scrambled code, and so problems in Houston's background engine get reported too. Nothing for you to do.
Before you upgrade
- Mac: quit Houston before installing. macOS does not always replace a running app cleanly. If in doubt, remove
/Applications/Houston.appand drag the new copy in. - Windows x64: auto-update from 0.4.7 or later pulls you forward automatically. The MSI is still not OS-code-signed (SignPath integration still pending), so Windows SmartScreen may warn on a fresh install.
- Windows ARM64: there is no auto-update path from an emulated x64 install. Download the ARM64 MSI manually, uninstall the x64 build first, then install the ARM64 one.
