Patterm 0.2.8

Windows fixes for quitting and updating:

  • Quit exits after managed processes stop even if final resource cleanup reports
    an error. Shutdown dialogs and the debug log include the underlying exception.
  • The desktop launcher runs Patterm.exe. An electron.exe compatibility copy
    remains in the package so older installed updaters can install this release.
  • The installer prepares Start menu shortcuts separately and replaces them
    atomically, preserving the existing entry if setup fails. Running-app errors
    identify the blocking process by PID and executable path.
  • In-app update checks no longer fail with “Digest method not supported” when
    verifying signed release manifests in Electron on Windows.
  • Quit warnings count only agents and commands on the local machine, excluding
    paired hosts.

Platform support

Linux x64 and arm64 are the supported release platforms.

macOS and Windows desktop builds are experimental, including when attached
to a stable release. They pass automated build checks but still need hands-on
testing with agent CLIs; bugs and platform differences may remain.

  • macOS: Apple Silicon (macos-arm64) and Intel (macos-x64) app zips.
    These builds are ad-hoc signed, not Apple Developer ID signed or notarized,
    so macOS may block opening them. Install or update with install-macos.sh.
  • Windows: a portable x64 zip (windows-x64) and the per-user PowerShell
    installer (install.ps1).
  • The background service installer and Tailscale setup are Linux-only.

Each app archive has a matching .sha256 file. Install and sign into your agent
CLIs separately. See the repository README for platform installation details.
