0.1.3

Download: Mac, Apple silicon · Mac, Intel · Windows · Linux AppImage · Linux .deb

On a Mac with 0.1.1, download once and drag it into Applications to replace the old copy. Updates install themselves from here on.

Smaller downloads, gentler updates, and savings in dollars.

Mac

  • A Mac that downloads Lunchbox in a browser no longer calls it damaged. macOS now shows its usual prompt for apps from outside the App Store: open System Settings › Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway, once.

Updates

  • Restart now waits for your agents. While a room is working the button reads Restart when agents finish, and the update installs the moment they do.
  • After an update, Lunchbox opens on the page you left.
  • Coming back to the app after an hour checks for a new version, so updates arrive the same day.

Windows

  • The installer is half the size, 116 MB instead of 226 MB.

Agents

  • Add OpenCode in one click from the agent menu. It brings free models with no key. If OpenCode is not installed yet, the Agents page shows the command to install it.
  • Small local models reach their crewmates however they dress the request up: bullets, quotes, headings, bold, italics or code.
  • When an agent fails after writing part of its answer, the error shows under the text.

Savings

  • Savings shows dollars for every agent that reports a cost, Grok included, and for rooms from before 0.1.2. Codex is priced from its credit rates.

And

  • The agent menu draws above the chips below the message box.
  • Tabs and section headers fit in a small window.
  • The room list no longer reads every room's history to find which rooms need you, so Lunchbox starts faster and uses less memory as your rooms pile up.

Lunchbox 0.1.2

The first update since launch, shaped by your reports. Thank you for every screenshot.

Updates

  • Macs now update themselves. Lunchbox downloads the new version in the background, checks it against the release, and installs it when you quit or click Restart now. (From 0.1.1 you install this one by hand once; after that it is automatic.)

Rooms

  • One plan per task. Agents post their checklist once and tick steps off; a repeated list now shows only what changed, and Progress is the single list to follow.
  • Progress shows the agent who did each step, file names and code instead of raw text, and long steps wrap cleanly.
  • When an agent hits its usage limit partway through an answer, the next one carries on from there.
  • Commands and edits from a turn that failed are kept, so the next agent and the proof check see them.
  • Escape no longer stops a working agent when you only meant to close a menu or dialog.
  • Scrolling up while an agent works now stays where you put it.

Windows and Linux

  • Agents installed with npm start on Windows again (the "could not start: INFO: Could not find files" error).
  • Tools installed through nvm, fnm, Volta, bun or pnpm are found.
  • Linux keeps its own title bar; the window buttons on Windows sit level with the header.
  • Dropdown lists are readable on Linux and Windows.

Local models

  • Ollama gets a context window big enough for the room, so answers no longer come back empty or cut off. An empty answer now says so.

Savings

  • Savings shows what cached tokens saved from the first cache hit, with the cost of writing the cache in the note. Agents without published prices are counted in tokens.

And

  • New room has eight new patterns in its header, a different one each visit.
  • Right click a room in the sidebar to archive or delete it.
  • Checkpoints skip build folders and files over 25 MB, and never lose your files when a checkpoint fails.
  • Rooms, settings and the spending ledger survive crashes and full disks.
  • Flows that hang or wait for approval time out, and old flow rooms are cleaned up.
  • Over 40 smaller fixes from a full review.
