v0.2.2

v0.2.2 — Windows, Cloudflare Quick Tunnel, and stability

Adds Windows support and a one-shot Cloudflare tunnel, widens file-tree/search
ignore lists for bigger workspaces, and includes a round of stability fixes
around PTY teardown, WebSocket keep-alive, and agent lifecycle.

Highlights

• Windows support. Release builds now produce
  noide-server-windows-x86_64.exe; terminal tabs default to PowerShell and
  git is required for Source Control (install Git for Windows if it is missing).
• Cloudflare Quick Tunnel. With no flags the server downloads
  cloudflared into ~/.noide (or %LOCALAPPDATA%\noide on Windows) and
  starts a trycloudflare.com tunnel, printing a public wss://-friendly URL
  to stderr. Drop --no-cloudflare if you bring your own reverse proxy.
• File tree / search ignore lists widened. More project noise is skipped by
  default (intermediate build/output folders for common stacks), so large repos
  browse and search more cleanly.
• Chat agent detection is stricter. chat_check_install now distinguishes
  "missing" from "wrong binary on PATH", and streaming startup surfaces a
  clear error instead of proceeding silently when a shadowed CLI doesn't match
  the requested agent.
• Cleaner PTY shutdown and ring-buffer attach path. The PTY reader now
  fails fast on a full outbound channel instead of blocking inside the reader
  thread, and terminal attach/replay code is less twiddly around ring state.
• Smarter WebSocket keep-alive. Idle connections are still probed, but the
  server now resets the idle timer on the pong it just sent (not on the
  incoming ping), so a half-closed client can't keep the server convinced the
  connection is alive.
• Windows cleanup hardened. chat_cancel and server shutdown both kill
  Windows agent processes with separate OpenProcess(...) / TerminateProcess(...)
  / CloseHandle(...) calls, and Cloudflare's Windows binary path/fallbacks
  are a bit more robust.

Install (upgraded)

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/n-o-ide/noide-server/main/install.sh | bash

Re-running upgrades you to the newest release. Pin a version with
VERSION=0.2.2. The Windows binary is noide-server-windows-x86_64.exe.

Windows note

SmartScreen may warn about an unsigned binary — click More info → Run anyway,
or verify against the published SHA256SUMS before running.

macOS note

Downloaded binaries are quarantined by Gatekeeper. If you see
"cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified", remove the
quarantine attribute once:

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine "$(command -v noide-server)"

Run

noide-server

On startup you get the usual pairing code + QR plus a Cloudflare tunnel URL
if the download succeeds. Enter the pairing code in the NoIDE app
(Settings → Server) and connect.

noide-server --no-cloudflare

Use --no-cloudflare (or set up Caddy/nginx as in the README) when you
already have a wss:// path.

Install a downloaded binary manually:

curl -fLO https://github.com/n-o-ide/noide-server/releases/download/v0.2.2/noide-server-linux-x86_64
curl -fLO https://github.com/n-o-ide/noide-server/releases/download/v0.2.2/SHA256SUMS
sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS --ignore-missing
chmod +x noide-server-linux-x86_64 && sudo mv noide-server-linux-x86_64 /usr/local/bin/

Security

• Pairing is on by default — the code only exists on the server's console.
• Use wss:// whenever the connection leaves your trusted LAN; the token
  travels in the URL query string, so don't reuse long-lived credentials.
• --no-auth exists for localhost development only.
• Cloudflare Quick Tunnel is opt-out at startup via --no-cloudflare; the
  tunnel URL is visible only on the server's console (not exposed in the
  WebSocket protocol itself).

See the README and
PROTOCOL.md
for details.

Full Changelog: v0.2.1...v0.2.2

v0.1.0

v0.1.0 — first release

noide-server is the self-hosted backend for the NoIDE app: a single native
binary that serves file operations, PTY terminals, Git, and AI coding agents
(kilo / opencode) over one WebSocket connection. The NoIDE app connects to it
from anywhere (browser, PWA, iPad, Android tablet) — run the server where your
code lives, and edit it from every other screen you own.

Highlights

• Pairing auth by default. On startup the server prints a fresh
  XXXX-XXXX code plus a scannable ASCII QR; every client must present the
  code to connect. No accounts, no config — restart to rotate.
• One binary, zero runtime deps. No Rust or Node.js needed to install or
  run (see Requirements in the README). git is only required on the host if
  you use the Source Control features.
• Terminal (PTY) sessions, file tree / read / write / search, and full Git
  (status, diffs, stage/commit/push/pull, branches, stash, merge conflict
  resolution) over the WebSocket.
• Chat AI agents (kilo / opencode) with streaming responses — run against
  any model endpoint, seeded with an API key from the app.
• Self-host friendly: plain ws:// for LANs, wss:// behind Caddy/nginx
  or Codespaces/Cloudflare tunnels for the internet.

Install

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/n-o-ide/noide-server/main/install.sh | bash

Verifies the SHA-256 checksum, installs to ~/.local/bin, and doubles as the
upgrader (re-run to update). Pin a version with VERSION=0.1.0. Read it first
instead? Download and run it by hand — or grab a binary + SHA256SUMS below.

Run

noide-server

Enter the printed pairing code in the NoIDE app (Settings → Server) and
you're connected. Full walkthroughs (systemd, Codespaces, Termux/AndroNix,
wss via Caddy/nginx) are in the README.
