v0.2.4

[0.2.4] - 2026-03-21

Added

• Preflight auth check on bae start and bae init — verifies Claude Code can respond before booting
• Runtime auth error detection — shows actionable message in channel instead of cryptic "/login" text
• Timestamped logs (HH:mm:ss.SSS) for all bae start output
• bae upgrade command — updates to latest version and restarts if running
• Auto-update on bae start — checks npm and updates before booting
• Live auto-update — checks npm every 6 hours while running, installs and restarts automatically
• Auto-restart after bae channel add/remove, bae workspace remove/set-executor, and bae init
• Auto-start bae after bae init completes (no manual bae start needed)

Changed

• bae start -d promoted as recommended default in help text and all hints
• Config changes no longer require manual restart — bae restarts itself
• Typing indicator stops cleanly after agent reply (no more lingering "typing...")

Fixed

• Typing indicator stuck for minutes after agent reply on Telegram
• Auth error leaves typing indicator running — broken process stayed alive, steered messages caused minutes of phantom typing
• Opt out of auto-updates with BAE_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1
