Kite is now Kaze

  • A new name (風, wind) and a new icon: a pinwheel of three translucent petals. Everything you had
    stays — your tabs, sign-ins, saved keys and chats. Old kite:// addresses open their kaze:// page.
  • Agents connected to Kite (Claude Code, Codex…) show "Repair" in Settings › External agents:
    one press renames them to Kaze.

A richer, calmer look

  • Floating panels, menus and dialogs have a soft sheen and depth; buttons and tags use translucent
    fills that take the window's tint; the main action in a dialog is a dark "ink glass" button.
  • Fields are white and quietly inset instead of grey wells, everywhere.
  • Settings' colour tiles in Apple's system colours, each at its own brightness — no more muddy
    orange or dark green.
  • The New Tab page wears the window's colour: one large field, the pages you just saw as cards with
    their snapshots, your sites as plates.

Fixes

  • Nothing stays stuck in its hover look when the pointer moves onto a page (the sidebar's resize
    handle no longer shows up by the page).
  • The floating agent card appears in the page's corner and no longer jumps on its first drag.
  • Short titles show whole; only titles that don't fit fade out.
  • Menus: a check mark no longer covers its label; Zoom's full-screen button is back in the menu.
  • "Helpers" are now called Subagents.
