What's in this build
- Project deletion now closes every owned daemon session before removing its records, including live sessions that no longer have a tab, preventing orphaned PTYs.
- Recovered sessions are visible in the dashboard with explicit restore and release actions.
- A PTY daemon that owns your terminal sessions, so closing the app doesn't kill a running agent.
- Provider-history discovery: agent sessions already on your machine — Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, Cursor and others — appear in the dashboard, ready to resume.
- Projects, windows, split panes and layouts, with stash and revive for panes you want out of the way but still running.
- Agent-aware panes with blocked / working / done attention signals.
- A native GPU-rendered UI on macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel) and Linux (x86-64 and arm64).
- Secret-aware redaction: launch arguments that look like credentials are never persisted verbatim.
Community and source builds are network-silent by default. The update check and model-catalog feeds are behind the off-by-default official-distribution feature.
