Fama v1.1.2 — reliable cross-platform release

Released 2026-08-12.

Fixed

  • The release gate now validates the universal macOS package before publishing
    the Windows release, preventing a partial latest release when Mac packaging
    fails.
  • macOS builds explicitly disable automatic identity discovery when no signing
    certificate is configured, avoiding the hosted-runner path error that blocked
    the prior Mac package.
  • The version in package.json, package-lock.json, and the release tag is
    now kept in lockstep by the release workflow's existing tag gate.

Fama v1.1.0 — Windows and macOS parity

Released 2026-08-12.

Fama now ships from one shared Electron codebase as a Windows x64 app and a universal macOS app for Apple Silicon and Intel.

Added

  • Universal macOS .dmg and updater .zip packaging with the same application ID, runtime, features, privacy boundary, tests, and package-secret scan as Windows.
  • Native macOS application, Dock, menu-bar, and tray menus, plus standard reopen behavior when the Dock icon is clicked.
  • Platform-correct startup and built-in voice labels while preserving one shared settings interface.
  • Pull-request and tagged-release jobs that build both Windows and macOS, combine checksums, and attest both platform bundles.
  • A high-resolution macOS .icns generated from the same Signal Aperture identity used on Windows.

Compatibility and signing

  • macOS 12 or newer on Apple Silicon or Intel.
  • The Windows build remains x64.
  • Windows remains unsigned by Authenticode. macOS remains unsigned by Apple Developer ID and is not notarized until the repository owner supplies those signing credentials; hashes, the SBOM, package scans, and GitHub/Sigstore attestations remain mandatory.

Fama v1.0.0 — first stable release

Released 2026-08-11.

Fama is a local-first Windows desktop companion for Claude Code and Codex. It turns the transcript files those agents already write on your computer into a live conversation/activity dashboard, with optional spoken narration.

Highlights

  • Follow Claude Code and Codex sessions side by side, grouped by project and provider.
  • Read messages in a conversation view or inspect reasoning summaries, tool calls, results, and errors in the activity view.
  • Hear the latest active session through the free operating-system voice or optional OpenAI text-to-speech using your own API key.
  • Watch multiple selected projects, rename and reorder lanes, and keep the app available from the Windows system tray.
  • Receive bounded native notifications when active agents finish, fail, or go quiet.
  • Install with the Windows setup executable or use the portable zip; updates are always user-confirmed before download and again before installation.

Privacy and security

  • The local server binds only to 127.0.0.1 and requires a per-process token for mutations.
  • Fama has no account, telemetry, analytics, or remotely hosted application UI.
  • Transcript content stays on the device unless optional cloud voice is enabled. In that mode, only narration requests are sent to OpenAI with the user's own key.
  • Transcript images are size-bounded and external image URLs are never fetched automatically.
  • Every release build runs tests, a high-severity dependency audit, and a package scan that blocks credentials and forbidden files.
  • Release downloads include SHA-256 checksums, a CycloneDX software bill of materials, and GitHub/Sigstore-signed build-provenance and SBOM attestations.

Compatibility

  • Prebuilt and end-to-end tested on Windows x64.
  • Source server requires Node.js 18 or newer.
  • macOS and Linux packaging paths are available for contributors but are not published or claimed as end-to-end supported in this release.

Known limitation

The Windows binaries are not Authenticode-signed yet, so Microsoft Defender SmartScreen may warn on first launch. A real certificate requires owner identity verification and enrollment; Fama does not claim a certificate it does not possess. Download integrity and build origin can instead be checked with SHA256SUMS.txt and GitHub artifact attestations on the release page.
