Windows 1.46.0

Added

  • Sysinternals Suite in the apps group - Process Explorer for what holds a
    file or DLL open, Autoruns for everything that starts with the system,
    Procmon for every file and registry access a process makes. winget versions
    it by date (2026-07-09) rather than semver; it upgrades like any other
    package, since winget compares its own version strings.
  • UniGetUI, beside it - one window for what is outdated across winget,
    pip, npm and dotnet tools. It can update packages on its own schedule too;
    leave that off if the daily bootstrap task is meant to be the only updater.
  • HWiNFO - hardware and sensor inspection: temperatures, clocks, voltages
    and WHEA memory errors, with a sensor log for a run under load.
  • CrystalDiskInfo - SMART health for SSDs and HDDs, wear and reallocated
    sectors behind a Good / Caution / Bad verdict.
  • Bulk Crap Uninstaller - everything installed, including orphans with no
    uninstaller and what a removal left behind, and removes them in bulk.
  • Portmaster - which app connects where: domains, countries and
    connection counts per process, with a per-app block list. It installs a
    network filter driver and answers DNS itself, so if WSL, Rancher Desktop or
    a VPN loses name resolution after install, that is the first place to look.
  • ILSpy in the dev group, beside the .NET SDK - decompiles any .NET
    assembly back to C#: a NuGet package with no source, a Unity plugin, a
    build's Assembly-CSharp.dll, without opening a solution in Rider first.
  • mitmproxy in the dev group - an HTTP(S) proxy that shows every request
    and response an app makes: Bruno sends requests, mitmproxy watches what your
    app, game or CLI sends. mitmproxy (TUI), mitmweb (browser UI) and
    mitmdump. HTTPS needs its CA certificate trusted, which stays a manual
    step - visit mitm.it through the proxy - since a bootstrap that silently
    trusts an interception CA is the wrong default. mitmproxy.mitmproxy.

Not added

  • popeye and k8sgpt, which Linux 1.39.0 and macOS 1.42.0 gained: neither
    publishes a winget package. packages.psd1 says so beside the cloud group.

Linux 1.39.0

Added

  • popeye, in the cloud group next to k9s - same author, other half of the
    job: k9s is for looking at a cluster, popeye scans one and grades it -
    orphaned ConfigMaps and Secrets, pods without limits, services with no
    endpoints. A release binary; it answers only popeye version,
    which binary_version already tries last, so it needs no VERSION_ARGS.
  • k8sgpt, beside it - the other question: popeye grades what is sloppy,
    k8sgpt lists what is broken right now (CrashLoopBackOff, Pending pods,
    unbound PVCs, an Ingress pointing at nothing). The scan is local; only
    --explain sends findings to an LLM backend, and --anonymize masks
    resource names before they leave the machine. A release binary,
    with the same version-only answer as popeye.
  • Windows gets neither: no winget package exists for either tool.
  • mitmproxy in the dev group - an HTTP(S) proxy that shows every request
    and response an app makes: Bruno sends requests, mitmproxy watches what your
    app, game or CLI sends. mitmproxy (TUI), mitmweb (browser UI) and
    mitmdump. HTTPS needs its CA certificate trusted, which stays a manual
    step - visit mitm.it through the proxy - since a bootstrap that silently
    trusts an interception CA is the wrong default. Through uv tool, in a
    new GROUP_dev_UV: the archive's package trails upstream by majors.

Not added

  • ILSpy, which macOS 1.42.0 and Windows 1.46.0 gained: upstream's Linux
    build is an amd64-only .deb, and there is no general installer for a .deb
    from a release yet - only ghostty's own block.

macOS 1.42.0

Added

  • popeye, in the cloud group next to k9s - same author, other half of the
    job: k9s is for looking at a cluster, popeye scans one and grades it -
    orphaned ConfigMaps and Secrets, pods without limits, services with no
    endpoints. From Homebrew core.
  • k8sgpt, beside it - the other question: popeye grades what is sloppy,
    k8sgpt lists what is broken right now (CrashLoopBackOff, Pending pods,
    unbound PVCs, an Ingress pointing at nothing). The scan is local; only
    --explain sends findings to an LLM backend, and --anonymize masks
    resource names before they leave the machine. From Homebrew core.

    and response an app makes: Bruno sends requests, mitmproxy watches what your
    app, game or CLI sends. mitmproxy (TUI), mitmweb (browser UI) and
    mitmdump. HTTPS needs its CA certificate trusted, which stays a manual
    step - visit mitm.it through the proxy - since a bootstrap that silently
    trusts an interception CA is the wrong default. From the Homebrew cask;
    there is no formula.
  • ILSpy in the dev group - decompiles any .NET assembly back to C#: a
    NuGet package with no source, a Unity plugin, a build's
    Assembly-CSharp.dll. Cross-platform since 11.0; from the Homebrew cask.
