GitView v0.1.5
GitView v0.1.5
A features + polish release: a reasoning-effort control, a nicer chat transcript, friendlier model
names, and a cleaner workspace toolbar — and the bridge now drives the Claude Code CLI already on your
host instead of bundling one.
Bridge
- Chat drives the host's Claude Code CLI. The
.debno longer bundles the agent CLI (the SDK ships
it as a ~222 MB per-architecture binary); the bridge points at the Claude Code installed on your
machine, so the package stays ~3.7 MB andArchitecture: all. Chat now requires Claude Code
installed and signed in on the host — browsing, diffing, and editing don't. The CLI is
auto-discovered onPATH(and the usual install dirs); setclaude.cliPathin the config to pin a
specific binary. A missing CLI now fails with a clear, actionable message instead of an opaque one. - Reasoning-effort selector. Choose
low/medium/high/xhigh/maxfor the host agent
at runtime (support varies by model — the CLI silently downgrades an unsupported level). Set a default
withclaude.effortin the config, or change it live from the app. Unset leaves the CLI's own default.
App
- Chat opens at the newest message, and transcript text is now selectable and copyable — replies,
code blocks, and tool output. Auto-tail resumes when you scroll back to the bottom. - Reasoning-effort dropdown under Model in the Claude-agent dialog.
- Friendlier names in the pickers —
Opus 4.8,Extra high— while the raw model ids / effort
values remain exactly what's stored and sent. - Cleaner workspace toolbar — Files / Chat moved into the Git dropdown's View section (phone /
e-ink); the branch chip sits in the top bar.
Upgrading
Install the .deb over your existing one — the service restarts itself:
sudo dpkg -i gitview-bridge_0.1.5_all.deb
For chat, make sure Claude Code is installed on the host (which claude).
