Changes

  • Major
    • Releases now use a phased, resumable flow with fast preflight checks, live verification, and checksum-sealed on-demand assets for remote gxserver packages and the Project board bd tool.
    • GPUI now covers much more desktop parity, including Sparkle updates, Developer ID signing, native app menus, window-frame restore, quit behavior, support logs, crash reports, ghostex:// links, Finder file opens, and titlebar update controls.
    • GPUI browser, board, portless, agent, session-history, onboarding, and terminal workflows now behave closer to the macOS app while the new libghostty-vt terminal engine groundwork moves the shell toward cross-platform terminals.
    • Terminal and sidebar workflows are steadier, with embedded-browser link opens, terminal link diagnostics, stabilized sidebar drag selection, project ghost fixes, better GPUI IME handling, and first-prompt rename reliability.
    • Manage file context menus now support Reveal in Finder, Add to Session Context, create-here actions, and clearer relative path copying.
  • Minor
    • Automate WKWebViews now receive the Project Board bridge and automation agent lists exclude unlaunchable agents.
    • Sidebar multi-select avoids accidental drag capture, keeps pane-hidden rendered rows selectable, and adds New Group / Move to New Group affordances when supported.
    • Hermes Agent is now available in the default sidebar list with matching Android and iOS session icons.
    • GPUI hides the App Icon picker where that native subsystem is unavailable and records GPUI-specific diagnostic log files alongside the existing macOS scenarios.

On-demand components

The app downloads these automatically when first needed (remote Linux machines, Project board) and verifies them against checksums sealed inside the signed app:
