v0.16.0

Release Notes

Latest Release: v0.16.0 (March 22, 2026)

🩺 Workspace Health Sidebar + Module Install Modal

Summary: Introduces the Doctor Evidence Viewer — a persistent sidebar panel that reads .rapidkit/reports/doctor-last-run.json and renders an inline health dashboard (score bar, system tool status, per-project issues) without any extra CLI call. Also wires the Available Modules sidebar item click directly into the same install confirmation modal used on the welcome page, so users see exactly what will be installed and where before confirming.

Added

• 🩺 WORKSPACE HEALTH sidebar panel (DoctorEvidenceProvider)

  • Reads .rapidkit/reports/doctor-last-run.json from the active workspace — zero CLI overhead
  • Summary row: health score bar (e.g. 70% ███████░░░) with ✅ passed ⚠️ warnings ❌ errors counts
  • Timestamp row: Last checked: Xm ago with (cached scan) badge when CLI reused cache
  • System Tools (collapsible): per-tool status row — ✅ Python, ⚠️ pipx, ❌ ... with message detail
  • Projects (collapsible): each project with health icon; unhealthy projects expand to show individual issues
  • No-data state: single click-to-run item (No health data — run doctor to scan)
  • No-workspace state: placeholder until workspace is selected
  • Three view/title toolbar icon buttons:
    • $(run) Re-run Doctor — opens terminal at workspace CWD, runs npx rapidkit doctor workspace
    • $(wrench) Auto-fix Issues — opens terminal, runs npx rapidkit doctor workspace --fix
    • $(refresh) Refresh — re-reads evidence file from disk immediately
  • File watcher: auto-refreshes the panel the moment the CLI writes new evidence (no manual refresh needed)
  • Live workspace sync: uses a live getter () => workspaceExplorer.getSelectedWorkspace() so the correct workspace is always used, regardless of initialization timing
  • onDidChangeTreeData subscription: workspace switch immediately triggers a panel reload

• 📦 Module install modal from AVAILABLE MODULES sidebar

  • New command rapidkit.showModuleInstallModal
  • Clicking any installable module in the sidebar now opens the InstallModuleModal — the same confirmation modal used by welcome page module cards
  • Modal shows: module name, version, description, category tags, installation target (workspace name + path), and exact CLI command (npx rapidkit add module <slug>)
  • User must explicitly click Install Module to proceed — no silent execution
  • Module data is normalized with display_name field to match the webview ModuleData interface

Changed

• 🔄 Workspace-switch health refresh now hooks directly into workspaceExplorer.onDidChangeTreeData — fires immediately after selectedWorkspace is updated, before any command event chain
• 🧩 WelcomePanel gains two new static methods:
  • setExtensionContext(context) — stores context so sidebar-triggered flows can open the panel without passing context through the call chain
  • showModuleInstallModal(moduleData) — opens the panel (if needed) and posts openModuleInstallModal to the React webview
• 🪟 App.tsx handles new openModuleInstallModal message — sets selectedModule and opens showInstallModal, identical to the welcome page card click flow

Fixed

• ⏱️ Workspace Health not showing on reload — fixed initial workspace path not being passed to the provider because workspaceSelected event only fires when workspace changes, not on first load. Now explicitly seeded after workspaceExplorer.refresh() completes.
• 🗂️ Stale health data after workspace switch — fixed by always re-reading evidence from disk in getChildren instead of relying on in-memory cache
