1Helm 0.0.9

1Helm 0.0.9

This release turns Joseph's full stress-test report into a broad product pass
without replacing the channel-computer, resident-agent, or provider-fabric
architecture that was already working well.

What changed

1. Feedback — Reports are saved locally first, retain bounded opt-in diagnostics and attachments, remain visible to the Captain, and retry central delivery automatically.
2. Channel Notes — Every resident channel now has Markdown Notes as both a channel tab and a header button that opens a resizable right-hand dock. Notes can be created, named, opened, edited, renamed, and saved in that channel computer's /workspace/notes directory.
3. Speech-to-text — Composer dictation can be toggled from the microphone or with one bare Option/Alt tap, continues listening until toggled again, includes an explicit macOS microphone-purpose declaration, and fails with a useful explanation when the browser lacks speech-recognition support.
4. Favorites — The channel header now has a per-user favorite control, and favorite channels appear in a dedicated Favorites section without changing another member's sidebar.
5. Human-only channels — Members can create additional channels that intentionally have no resident agent and no channel computer.
6. Scoped mentions — Typing @ now suggests only the current channel's resident and human members instead of everyone in the workspace.
7. Tab-to-mention — Pressing Tab in an empty composer inserts the current resident's mention.
8. Unread grouping — Settings now includes an optional Slack-style “Group unread channels first” preference with a separate Unreads section.
9. Live Router visualization — Provider Settings now shows the dotted Requests → 1Helm Router → provider flow using real routing activity.
10. Channel Router popover — The router symbol in every channel header opens a credential-free live popover with the routing animation, latest ten requests, external Base URL, copy action, and the guidance “API Keys for the router are stored in Settings → Providers → Endpoints.”
11. Resident avatars — New residents receive one of nine illustrated agent characters on a randomly selected flat-color plate; both character and color remain configurable.
12. Navigable Files — Files now renders real folder structure with breadcrumbs, direct-child listings, folder creation, and folder-targeted uploads instead of one raw recursive dump.
13. Audio and fleet management — MP3 and M4A attachments play in place. Skipper now reports validated live or last-known pressure honestly, distinguishes the Files mirror quota from unknown guest capacity, and owns inspection/remediation instead of asking the Captain to run guest checks.
14. Compact Global Threads — Global thread rows are shorter, quieter, and focused on the information needed to reopen work.
15. Focused resident skills — New residents receive a small operational core plus channel-purpose skills rather than every built-in skill. The full catalog remains searchable, explicit assignments persist, and Skipper retains the complete catalog.
16. Profile image editor — Profile-photo selection now includes move, zoom, square crop, compression, preview, and an explicit save step.
17. Workspace names — Names are Unicode-safe, capped at 100 code points, and wrap visibly instead of fading into an ellipsis.
18. Connection language — The inscrutable “More connections” copy was replaced with plain connection-availability language.
19. Provider Activity — One-hour, 24-hour, seven-day, 30-day, and all-time periods now filter real member-scoped events, and traffic rows use recognizable account/provider names instead of generic “account” labels.
20. Thread usage labeling — Thread usage is identified as cumulative provider telemetry rather than a context-window estimate, avoiding a misleading claim about current context occupancy.
21. Safe model refresh — Provider accounts have a Refresh models action that previews discovery results, gracefully explains unavailable /models endpoints, and supports select all, select none, and individual selection before anything is applied.
22. OpenRouter free models — OpenRouter discovery exposes a “Free only” filter when its catalog returns pricing metadata.

Additional changes

• Open chat threads now show @resident will check back in … with a live second-by-second countdown. Chat and Board read the same persisted follow-up obligation, and the banner clears through the same WebSocket lifecycle when the wake completes or is cancelled.
• The channel-header Router and web microphone permission were explicitly regression-tested against the public demo after their deployment mismatch was found.
• 1Helm v0.0.9 and later are AGPL-3.0-only under Joseph Yaksich. Releases through v0.0.8 remain MIT licensed as recorded in NOTICE.
• CONTRIBUTING.md now requires Developer Certificate of Origin 1.1 sign-off on every contributed commit without treating the DCO as a copyright assignment.

Verification

• Linux: typecheck, build, 117 native-world checks, 89 Node/browser contracts with one environment-only Chrome skip, onboarding 20/20, brief browser 30/30, feedback browser 1/1, production-data browser 18/18, website 4/4, and git diff --check.
• Apple Silicon: real channel-computer acceptance 26/26; the app and DMG were Developer ID signed, accepted by Apple notarization, stapled, strict-verified, and accepted by Gatekeeper; the mounted app and updater ZIP app were independently verified.
• Public demo: favorite toggle, Notes dock, Router popover, mic click, bare Option/Alt toggle, and first-party microphone policy were exercised from the visible UI.
