Spark 1.0.0

Spark 1.0.0

The first public release of Spark: a native, open-source macOS terminal for your shell, your AI agents, and your next big idea.

Highlights

• Native SwiftUI and AppKit interface with GPU-powered terminal rendering.
• Persistent workspaces, tabs, split panes, layout presets, and restored window geometry.
• Codex and Claude Code activity indicators, context and usage metrics, and macOS notifications.
• An activity panel to find running agents and resume recent CLI conversations.
• Per-terminal Git worktrees with generated names and guarded merges back to the original branch.
• Native code review with a file tree, syntax highlighting, live filesystem updates, and recovery copies when discarding changes.
• A searchable command palette and keyboard shortcuts throughout the app.
• Automatic updates through Sparkle.

Install

Requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later, on Apple Silicon or Intel.

1. Download Spark-1.0.0.dmg below.
2. Open the disk image and drag Spark into Applications.
3. Launch Spark and use your existing shell and tools.

The app and DMG are signed with Developer ID and notarized by Apple. The ZIP is provided for Sparkle updates; SHA256SUMS contains checksums for both downloads.

Codex and Claude Code are optional, installed and authenticated separately. Start them in a new zsh pane to connect metrics. Available fields depend on the CLI version and configuration. Restored workspaces open fresh shells; commands and agents are not automatically restarted.
