AEGIS Desktop v6.1.0

AEGIS Desktop v6.1.0

🧠 Thinking Bubble — See How Your AI Thinks

AI reasoning and thinking content now appears as an interactive bubble in the chat.

• Live mode — animated bar with timer while the model is thinking
• Finalized mode — compact "Thought for Xs" pill, click to expand full reasoning
• Works everywhere — extracts thinking from 4 different sources (structured blocks, dedicated fields, tagged content, prefixed messages)
• Stream + poll — real-time stream events with automatic polling fallback for older Gateways
• Compatible with Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, and any model that exposes reasoning

⚡ Exec Approvals — Now Actually Work

Exec approval prompts were never reaching AEGIS Desktop due to three separate bugs. All fixed:

• Missing permissions — handshake now requests operator.approvals scope + tool-events capability
• Silent button failure — fixed API method name typo (approvals → approval) that caused Allow/Always/Deny clicks to do nothing
• Dropped events — fixed payload parsing that silently discarded approval requests
• Auto-cleanup — expired approvals disappear automatically instead of lingering forever

🔗 Gateway Connection — Self-Healing

The app no longer gets stuck on a pairing screen when the Gateway token changes:

• Auto token recovery — reads the correct token from the Gateway config file and reconnects without user action
• Smart error classification — distinguishes token mismatch, origin blocked, rate limited, and actual pairing requirements
• Rate limit backoff — waits 60 seconds before retrying after too many failed attempts
• No more infinite loops — origin-blocked connections stop retrying immediately

📋 Background Tasks Panel

A new collapsible panel shows background work happening across your AEGIS system:

• Live tracking — ACP runs, subagent spawns, cron executions, and CLI operations
• Smart refresh — polls every 15s when tasks are active, 60s when idle
• Auto-expand — panel appears when tasks start, collapses when they finish
• Status at a glance — running, queued, succeeded, failed, timed out — with duration and runtime type

🔇 Smarter Notifications

• Heartbeat responses (HEARTBEAT_OK) and silent replies (NO_REPLY) no longer trigger desktop notifications when the app is minimized
