Builder Wars 0.3.0

What's new in 0.3.0

• A new look that matches X, in three appearances: Lights out, Dim and Light. Pick yours in Settings, under Appearance.
• The app now keeps itself up to date. On macOS, Windows and the Linux AppImage it downloads new versions in the background, then asks you to restart (or installs when you quit). The .deb and .rpm show a notice with a download link instead.
• The Windows installer is now code-signed: Windows names the publisher, Richard Louis Williams.
• Settings shows which version you have and has a Check for updates button.
• The "Run prompt?" confirmation stands out more, so a site's request to run something in your terminal is hard to miss.
• Still on 0.1.0? Download 0.3.0 once by hand. After that, updates are automatic.

Builder Wars 0.1.0

First public release of the Builder Wars desktop app.

• One window with three panes: your AI coding CLI in a terminal, the game, and X.
• The game can hand your agent a prompt, and nothing runs until you approve it.
• Sign in to X once; the app remembers it between launches.
• Works with Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Grok and OpenCode, and with herdr to run several agents side by side.
