v0.0.9

Task editing polish and safety

What's new

• Block deleting tasks with notes: Tasks that have non-empty notes can no longer be accidentally deleted. Clearing the task name or pressing Backspace/Delete will flash the notes icon red instead of deleting, and restore the task name.
• Bullet markers for resting tasks: Tasks in their resting (non-editing) state now show a small bullet marker for better visual hierarchy.
• Fix checkbox jump on edit: Fixed a visual glitch where the checkbox would shift vertically when entering task edit mode.

v0.0.8

Resting state bullets for task lists

What's new

• Bullet markers in resting state: Tasks now display a small filled bullet when a slice is not hovered or selected, giving the list visual structure instead of free-floating text. The bullet crossfades into the interactive checkbox when the slice becomes active.

Also in this release

• Fixed a regression where the checkbox would jump vertically when entering/exiting task edit mode, caused by a double translate-y offset in the TaskMarker wrapper.

v0.0.7

Smarter update checks

What's new

• Tuned update-check caching: Auto-checks now use a 1-hour cache (down from 24 hours), so you'll hear about new versions sooner. The manual itsvertical update command skips the cache entirely and always checks the registry.

v0.0.6

CLI auto-update and quality-of-life improvements

What's new

• CLI auto-update: The CLI now checks for updates after every command and prompts you to update when a new version is available. Supports npm, pnpm, yarn, and bunx with automatic detection of your package manager.
• itsvertical <file> shorthand: You can now run itsvertical myproject.vertical as a shorthand for itsvertical open myproject.vertical, making it faster to open the board UI.
• bunx cache clearing: When updating via bunx, the CLI automatically detects and clears the bunx cache to ensure you get the latest version.

Developer Experience & Polish

Testing infrastructure, bundle optimization, and UX improvements across the board.

What's new

• 65% smaller JS bundle — reduced from 2,587 KB to 895 KB by removing unused editor features (code block highlighting, content type picker, unused slash commands)
• Auto-save indicator — replaced Save buttons with a subtle saving/saved indicator that prevents layout shift
• Disconnected page — the board now shows a friendly disconnected state when the CLI server stops, instead of silently failing
• Notes button while editing — the notes icon is now accessible even while editing a task name
• pnpm run dev command — full dev environment with Vite HMR + CLI auto-restart using a single command
• Testing infrastructure — Vitest setup with 117 tests covering the reducer, serialization, CLI commands, drag helpers, and utilities
• CI pipeline — GitHub Actions workflow running lint, type-check, and tests on every push/PR

Also in this release

• Added release skill for automated publishing workflow
