Wisp 0.1.0
Feature parity release with the Codex desktop app's Computer Use, based on an audit of what it ships.
Added
- Per-app instructions: the first state of an app now starts with app-specific guidance, like Codex's
AppInstructions. 19 built-in files (Slack, Notion, Spotify, iPhone Mirroring, Music, Numbers, Clock, Finder,
Safari, Mail, Notes, Messages, Calendar, Terminal, Xcode, System Settings, Chrome, a generic browser block for any
app that handles http links, and Chrome DevTools tabs). Guidance is keyed by bundle id, bundle name or app name,
concatenated, delivered once per session (--instructionsrepeats it,--no-instructionssuppresses it), and
can be overridden or extended with~/.config/wisp/instructions/<bundle id>.md(instructionsMode
merge|replace|off).wisp instructions list|show --app Xexplains what applies. - Model guidance parity in the skill: tool choice, observation discipline, blockers, app resolution, newline
hazards in composers, interruption phrasing, and a four-tier confirmation policy in
skills/wisp/references/confirmations.md. - Per-app approval with risk tiers: high-risk apps (System Settings, Terminal, Keychain, Passwords, Mail,
Messages, Finder) prompt "Allow Wisp to control X?" with once / session / always / deny; a forbidden set
(login window, SecurityAgent, Wisp itself) can never be allowed; grants persist in
~/.config/wisp/approvals.json(wisp approvals list|clear); URL hosts can be blocked
(wisp policy set --block-url host). - An observing lens indicator with activity states (idle, observing, acting, paused) that shows while Wisp reads
a window even when the cursor is hidden; the menu bar and banner say whether Wisp is reading or acting. - Lock-screen monitor: locking the screen cancels the running action, hides the overlays, and invalidates state
so the next read is a full tree;wisp statusreportsscreenLockedandactivity. - Chrome over DevTools: file uploads without a native panel (
wisp chrome upload), JavaScript alert/confirm/
prompt handling (wisp chrome dialog), agent-tab lifecycle with deliverable/handoff marks
(wisp chrome mark; a barewisp endcloses unmarked agent tabs), and hidden-by-default launch with
wisp chrome show|hideandwisp chrome launch --visible. - Background launch parity:
wisp launchand the MCPwisp_launchstart apps in the background
(--activateopts in) and wait for a real window;wisp_turn_endMCP tool; MCP cancellation notifications
cancel the running action; interruption errors read as plain sentences. - Settle detection waits for visible progress indicators; banner text and hint are configurable
(wisp policy set --banner-text,--banner-hint,--lens on|off).
Fixed
wisp apps --runningno longer lists multi-process apps (Chrome, Electron) more than once.wisp launchrefuses to start an app while the screen is locked instead of leaving a windowless process behind.
Changed
- Policy defaults: Terminal, Keychain Access and Passwords moved from the deny list to the high-risk approval
tier; the login window and SecurityAgent are forbidden outright. Password managers stay denied.
