Sensorium — Sycophancy v0.1.1

Hotfix release. Three frontend bugs found on the first day of public use, plus one small UX feature added during the fix. The Sycophancy flavour, probe bank, narration prompts, and engine architecture are unchanged from v0.1.0 — see the v0.1.0 release notes for the full feature description.

What changed

Bug fixes

  1. Markdown is now rendered in the assistant reply. v0.1.0 was rendering raw markdown source — ## Heading and **bold** showed as inline characters. v0.1.1 ships a small safe markdown parser (no external dependencies; URL allow-list against unsafe link schemes); replies render with proper headings, bold, italic, lists, inline code, and fenced code blocks.
  2. Speaker label no longer overlaps the message body. The 56px gutter could not hold the full anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6 identifier; v0.1.1 derives a short, gutter-friendly label ("Claude", "GPT-4o", "Gemini", etc.) for the message header and preserves the full identifier as a tooltip on hover.
  3. The input box clears immediately on Send. v0.1.0 waited for the full response before clearing, making it look as if Send had not fired. v0.1.1 clears the input first and disables the composer (textarea + send button) for the duration of streaming, with a dimmed visual treatment.

Small feature

  1. "+ NEW CHAT" pill at the top of the chat area. Click to clear the conversation and start fresh; the input is re-focused for immediate typing. Visually dimmed when there is nothing to clear or while a reply is streaming.

Build pipeline

Behind the scenes, the flatpak build script and manifest have been generalised to read the version from package.json instead of hardcoding it — affects future releases, not this one.

First-launch warnings

Same as v0.1.0 — Sensorium remains unsigned. macOS Gatekeeper will warn on first launch; right-click Sensorium.app → Open → Open anyway, or from Terminal: xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Sensorium.app. After the first launch no warning appears.
