v0.5.0

dwork 0.5.0 adds explicit project discovery and named workspace controls.

What changed

• Scan one or several directories: dwork scan . or dwork scan ~/projects ~/work. Roots are validated before registration; --dry-run previews and -- permits paths beginning with a hyphen.
• Start saved workspaces together with dwork up api frontend, leaving all other workspaces running. The full batch is checked and applicable workspace/group confirmations are collected before startup; task and browser prompts remain separate.
• Stop selected registrations with dwork down api frontend, retaining ownership checks, Docker-target and service boundaries, KEEP protections, live locks, and shutdown confirmation.
• Bash and Zsh complete named lifecycle arguments and positional scan directories. No-name up, down, and scan retain their existing behavior.
• README now introduces scanning early. Windows/WSL setup explains complete ZIP extraction, choosing and checking the Linux interpreter and user, and manual restart or desktop-shortcut options. Installation and launch do not enable startup.

Tray compatibility

Companion 0.2.1 supports native CLI 0.4.x and 0.5.x (dwork-cli>=0.4.0,<0.6). This changes compatibility metadata without changing companion runtime behavior. The portable Windows app includes its runtime and requires no separate Windows Python installation.

Downloads and verification

Attached packages: CLI wheel/source, Debian/Ubuntu, Fedora 44, Arch, and portable Windows tray 0.2.1, with SHA256SUMS covering all six downloads. Release jobs build, test, install and smoke-check packages before attaching them. The local suite completed 428 tests with 3 platform skips; quality checks passed.

PyPI, the public Homebrew tap, AUR submission and apt-repository publication remain separate and pending. The native companion remains a separate package; its wheel is not attached to this release.
