Beta update. Terminals now look like your usual shell, and finished sessions stop calling for you.

New

  • Images in the terminal. Programs that draw pictures in the terminal now work, for example fastfetch --logo-type sixel or iTerm inline images. The console host built into Windows drops these, so Kotilo now ships Microsoft's console host (ConPTY, the same one Windows Terminal uses). If a terminal misbehaves, turn off Use the bundled console host (ConPTY) in Settings → Terminal and restart Kotilo.
  • Prompt icons out of the box. If you have a Nerd Font installed (for oh-my-posh, starship and similar prompts), terminals use it in front of the default font. The one you use in Windows Terminal is picked first. Settings → Terminal shows which one; enter a font of your own to override it.

Fixed

  • A session whose turn had already finished turned "waiting for your answer" about a minute later, along with a second notification. It now stays finished and you get one "completed" notification. Questions an agent asks during a turn still show as waiting.
  • A session started outside Kotilo stayed in the list with its old state after its terminal was closed, until Kotilo restarted. It now updates within a few seconds.

Known limitations (beta)

  • Still not code-signed. SmartScreen may warn ("More info → Run anyway"); Smart App Control blocks unsigned apps. Our SignPath Foundation application is pending; see the code signing policy.
  • Terminal colour schemes are not configurable yet.
  • Windows only; macOS is planned.
