v0.8.6

Jazz v0.8.6 – Smoother moves, better stage lighting

This release doesn’t add a thousand new knobs – it makes the ones you already have feel way better.

✨ Highlights

• Release notes, right when you update

  • When you upgrade Jazz, you now see the release notes directly in the update flow.
  • No more guessing what just changed or hunting through GitHub tags.
  • Makes it easier to understand what’s new before you dive back into your workflows.

• Unified activity state machine + smarter file picker

  • The activity state machine has been unified, making Jazz’s internal “what’s happening now?” logic more predictable and easier to extend.
  • The file picker tool is now wired into this unified flow, so file selection behaves more consistently across different tools and activities.
  • Net result: fewer edge cases, smoother UX, and a cleaner foundation for future features.
