Backlight 0.9.2

Download: Backlight-0.9.2.zip, with Backlight.app inside: unzip, move it to Applications. A release is the build with the agent tools (Settings › Agents, off until you turn it on); the plain build is ./build.sh from the source.

It is self-signed, not an Apple Developer ID, so the first time macOS refuses to open it: open it once, then System Settings › Privacy & Security › Open Anyway.

Requires: macOS 27 on Apple silicon.

Updates. Backlight updates itself: Backlight menu › Check for Updates…, and once a day by itself unless Settings › General turns that off. Update and Restart downloads the zip, checks it against its SHA-256 and the app in it against this app's identifier, then replaces the old app (which goes to the Trash) and opens the new one. Nothing is installed without your say.

New since 0.9.1

• Responsive design keeps your window. The page stands in a frame instead: iPhone, iPad or any size, by the fields under it or by dragging its edges. The frame belongs to its tab, ⌘+ and ⌘− work inside it, and the agent's resize uses it too. A frame that doesn't fit the window is drawn smaller; the page is told the size you set all the same.
• Settings is a panel over the page, like History and Downloads, and its texts are shorter.
• A pop-out from an extension is a panel too, not a window of its own. Bitwarden's "pop out" is one; a click outside puts it away.
• A download shows itself. The list comes out under the downloads button when one starts and goes away by itself after the last one is done.
• Local servers. The address keeps its port (localhost:3000), and a JSON document opens as a tree that folds, with Raw and Copy.
• The empty window shows the sites you use most, on the desktop blurred.
• The update box lists what changed in a line each.

After updating, quit and reopen Backlight if it did not restart itself, and start a new chat in your agent.
