Shuttle 0.1.3, based on Chromium 154.0.8037.129. Shuttle on Linux and Windows (WSL2) now behaves like a desktop app,
and the installer can start it for you.

New

  • Linux: starting Shuttle yourself opens chrome://agents. From the app menu or shuttle in a terminal, you get a
    window with your agents, their sessions and the quick start. A second launch focuses that tab instead of opening
    another. Agents, scripts and Puppeteer (no terminal) still start it without a window. The menu entry's "New Window"
    action opens a normal window.
  • Windows (WSL2): Shuttle's own window frame, and it follows Windows dark mode. Before, WSLg drew a light title bar
    that ignored dark mode, and the window could reach behind the taskbar. Your own Light/Dark choice in Shuttle still wins.
  • Installer: "Start Shuttle now?" curl -fsSL https://get.shuttlebrowser.com | bash asks at the end and opens
    chrome://agents. Without a terminal (CI, agents) it doesn't ask and doesn't start Shuttle; SHUTTLE_LAUNCH=yes|no
    decides for you.

Fixed

  • Linux: closing the last window no longer stops agents mid-task. While an agent session is open, Shuttle (and its
    MCP server) keeps running without a window; closing the session then quits it. Menu Exit and chrome://quit still
    quit right away.

Updating: Linux with the package repository: sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade / sudo dnf upgrade. macOS: run the
installer again (quit Shuttle first) or replace the app. Package files and the tarball: install or extract over the old
version. Your agents, their logins and your profile stay where they are.

Get started: https://www.shuttlebrowser.com/download. Or ask your agent: "Read https://www.shuttlebrowser.com/INSTALL.md
and help me set up Shuttle."

Known limits

  • macOS has no auto-update yet: run the installer again for new releases.
  • By default the CDP/MCP port is localhost only, with no authentication (web pages are rejected by Origin/Host checks).
    Network mode requires a token for remote clients; traffic is plain HTTP, so use trusted networks or Tailscale/SSH.
  • Linux tarball only: install two libraries first (sudo apt install libnss3 libasound2t64; Ubuntu 22.04/Debian 12:
    libasound2; Fedora: sudo dnf install nss alsa-lib). On Ubuntu 23.10+ (not WSL2) the tarball needs the bundled
    chrome-sandbox setuid helper (see README-LINUX.txt). The packages handle both.
  • Open codecs only: H.264-only video won't play, and there's no Widevine.
  • English UI only. macOS builds are arm64 only for now.
