Epo v3.1.1

     

• The growth chart draws in smoothly end to end: no more mid-animation
  pop, the projection appears only after the actual line finishes
  drawing, and the line and dot fade in instead of snapping.
• The network graph animates only genuine newcomers — it no longer
  re-pops every node during scans.
• Three dozen display fixes across every view: target funnel bars are
  readable, state chips carry their colors again, the queue list no
  longer flashes "Loading…", parked cards release their extra height,
  log lines trim with an ellipsis, and confirm dialogs block the whole
  window while open.
• The settings save indicator renders as a proper chip instead of a
  collapsed sliver, and the release page itself is leaner — downloads
  first, no instruction wall.

Every commit since v3.1.0

• release: v3.1.1 — smooth chart reveal, 35 display fixes, leaner release page (864f6ba)
• fix(ui): full-app QC pass — 35 verified rendering, sizing, and animation defects (fa7894c)
• fix(settings): save chip keeps its pill shape inside the zero-height header row (3a59547)

• First launch: macOS — dismiss the dialog, then System Settings →
  Privacy & Security → Open Anyway (needed once). Windows — More
  info → Run anyway. A no-install build, Epo-3.1.1-portable.exe,
  is in the assets below.
• Your database, settings, and Instagram session carry over — updating is a
  drop-in replacement. Installed apps update themselves from the
  latest*.yml / .blockmap assets below.
• Epo acts on your Instagram account; use it at your own risk (see the
  README).

Full changelog: v3.1.0...v3.1.1

Epo v3.1.0

macOS (Apple silicon · Intel) Windows 10 / 11 open source (MIT) local-first

• Background and overnight runs no longer freeze: every Instagram-facing
  operation now has a deadline, a watchdog revives a stalled tab (after
  sleep, a renderer crash, or a dropped automation session), and quitting
  never hangs behind a wedged loop.
• Failures wait instead of killing the run: repeated failed actions take
  up to three long, jittered backoffs (roughly one to two hours each)
  before Epo concludes something is genuinely wrong; a soft-blocked
  action is parked, never hammered; and records burned during an
  incident are re-queued once it resolves.
• Every quiet state explains itself: overnight rests, daily-cap parks,
  and recovery holds show a reason with a live countdown, settings saves
  confirm or surface their failure, and growth numbers stay honest —
  your chart no longer collapses to zero after the first scan.
• The Chain tab is now Targets, useful from the first session: a live
  per-target funnel, an honest pool-and-coverage readout with a
  days-to-next-target runway, a follow-back conversion verdict that
  waits for real data — and the growth chart compares actuals to plan
  over 14-day to all-time windows.
• Timing never lands on a clock grid: daily wakes, sweeps, backoffs, and
  scroll pacing all draw jittered intervals, and adaptive session pacing
  is now the default for new installs.

Every commit since v3.0.3

• release: v3.1.0 — end-to-end QOL: freeze-proof engine, recovery ladder, honest surfaces (974be9f)
• feat(ui): long-horizon growth surface — actuals vs plan, honest momentum (c8a705c)
• feat(engine): requeue-healer — systemic failure windows give abandoned records back (4f5d2f0)
• feat(ui): Chain tab rebuilt as the Targets console — useful from the first session (91160bf)
• fix(engine): exhaustion needs positive evidence — and is reversible within 48h (e2235db)
• feat(settings): adaptive-session pacing is reachable and the default; knobs stop lying (04dc181)
• feat(timing): noisification layer — no IG-facing wait fires on a predictable instant (8165479)
• feat(adapter): tab health events + sleep/resume observation feed the recovery path (a5c3651)
• fix(rim): shape drift ends walks as a verdict — never a verified-complete empty census (c929ee1)
• feat(engine): classified recovery ladder replaces terminal halts and blocked hammering (225506a)
• fix(prune): census tiles tell one truth — durable last-complete census, honest bar (868ce98)
• feat(engine): parks and holds are first-class visible states, not dashes (29cf4cd)
• fix(ui): chain projection rides the mutation push — target stats tick during walks (7ce4039)
• fix(store): first census no longer erases weeks of charted follower growth (1cc1a3e)
• fix(settings): saves are visible and honest — chip, error toast, no silent revert (9281c3a)
• fix(adapter): bound every tab-facing await; step watchdog recovers a wedged loop (26f9cde)
• ci(repo-health): check our own raw URLs now that the repo is public (7d31de8)
• fix(ci): silence actionlint's SC2016 info; one-click release downloads (78cedfc)

Epo v3.0.3

macOS (Apple silicon · Intel) Windows 10 / 11 open source (MIT) local-first

• Card spacing is back to normal: the first Settings card and the prune
  census card sat flush against their neighbors after the intro-tour
  update.
• The release pipeline is notarization-ready: the moment Apple Developer
  credentials are added as repository secrets, macOS builds sign and
  notarize automatically and first launch loses its warning dialog.

Every commit since v3.0.2

• release: v3.0.3 — tour-anchor card spacing; notarization-ready signing (29691dd)

     

macOS — download Epo-3.0.3-arm64.dmg (Apple silicon) or
Epo-3.0.3-x64.dmg (Intel), open it, and drag Epo to
Applications. The builds are not notarized yet, so macOS blocks the first
launch: open Epo once, dismiss the dialog, then System Settings →
Privacy & Security → Open Anyway (needed once).

Windows — download Epo-Setup-3.0.3.exe (recommended — it
updates itself from here on) or Epo-3.0.3-portable.exe.
SmartScreen may warn on first run: More info → Run anyway.

Full changelog: v3.0.2...v3.0.3

Epo v3.0.2

macOS (Apple silicon · Intel) Windows 10 / 11 open source (MIT) local-first

• macOS builds now open the normal way. v3.0.0 and v3.0.1 hit Gatekeeper's
  "Epo is damaged" dead end on Apple silicon; the app is now properly
  ad-hoc signed, so first launch is just System Settings → Privacy &
  Security → Open Anyway.
• Update checks stay quiet on builds that cannot self-update instead of
  showing an error in Settings → Updates.

Every commit since v3.0.1

• release: v3.0.2 — ad-hoc sign macOS builds; quiet no-feed update checks (e3e8656)

macOS — download Epo-3.0.2-arm64.dmg (Apple silicon) or
Epo-3.0.2-x64.dmg (Intel), open it, and drag Epo to

Epo v3.0.1

macOS (Apple silicon · Intel) Windows 10 / 11 open source (MIT) local-first

• Epo now updates itself: Windows installs download new versions in the
  background and apply them on restart; macOS shows new versions in
  Settings → Updates and brings you to the download page.
• Intel Macs get native builds again — Epo-3.0.1-x64.dmg joins the
  Apple-silicon build (v3.0.0 shipped arm64 only).
• Release notes, packages, and the update feed are now produced by one
  gated pipeline: nothing is published unless the full test, packaging,
  and boot checks pass first.

Every commit since v3.0.0

• release: v3.0.1 (8c6e97f)

macOS — download Epo-3.0.1-arm64.dmg (Apple silicon) or
Epo-3.0.1-x64.dmg (Intel), open it, and drag Epo to
Applications. These builds have a known packaging flaw: macOS reports the app "damaged". Rescue once from a terminal: xattr -cr /Applications/Epo.app — or skip to the newest release, which opens normally via System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway.

Windows — download Epo-Setup-3.0.1.exe (recommended — it
updates itself from here on) or Epo-3.0.1-portable.exe.
