Bridge

Changelog

What shipped in each Bridge release. Every build is Developer ID signed, notarized, and stapled.

0.5.10

September 21, 2026

OpenCode sessions, attention alerts, and memory

  • macOS attention alerts use a glass toast that stays put while unrelated UI renders.
  • The usage dot is back on the chat and headlines the tightest window, with usage refresh isolated per account.
  • Mission Control can close a chat and hide worker sessions. The live badge counts active pinned workers.
  • Memory extraction is proposed on the chat's own model, and safe memories can promote automatically.
  • OpenCode turns stay on the session tree, the event stream reconnects with backoff, and subagent rows are labeled. A stall watchdog treats provider heartbeats as liveness rather than progress.
  • GitHub offers Connect when no repository resolves, and a pasted GitHub link asks where it should open.
Release notes

0.5.9

September 16, 2026

Database compatibility release

  • Includes the schema 58 migration for databases created by the current Bridge build.
  • Ships as a new macOS version so the compatible DMG is selected instead of the older 0.5.8 build.
Release notes

0.5.8

September 12, 2026

Worker reports reach the parent

  • Corrects updater public-key encoding; the 0.5.7 build was rejected before publication, and the signing key is unchanged.
  • Worker results are saved with a pending notification and delivered in full when the parent can accept its next turn.
  • Busy or disconnected parents retain pending reports, and peek can recover a completed worker's summary, tests, and remaining work.
  • Request throttling no longer means an exhausted subscription, and rejected API keys get key-specific guidance.
  • Provider switches no longer relabel old errors, and live and stored copies of one failure render only once.
  • Changing credentials in an external terminal can still require refreshing the running provider process.
Release notes

0.5.6

September 11, 2026

Images, agent setup, and Linux builds

  • Paste or upload an image straight into a Codex, OpenCode, or image-capable Cursor session.
  • Setup can install an agent and run its provider sign-in, and a recovered login keeps the draft you were writing.
  • Work shows only connected integration activity from the past 24 hours, timed by the source rather than by a cache refresh.
  • Debian, AppImage, and Arch candidates build alongside the signed macOS disk image.
Release notes

0.5.5

September 8, 2026

The Span app icon

  • A mint deck over two off-white supports on a dark tile, regenerated for every platform size including each macOS ICNS entry.
  • Release checks now catch missing icon colors and invisible exports before a build ships.
  • Keeps the startup, window lifetime, daemon ownership, and shutdown fixes from 0.5.4.
Release notes

0.5.4

September 8, 2026

Streaming feedback and bounded repair loops

  • Sending a message gives immediate feedback, and streaming and transcript updates land more smoothly.
  • Worker-result repair loops are bounded, and a reused worker starts from a fresh budget.
  • Better model-switch handoffs, clearer compaction ownership, and steadier context checkpoints.
  • Clean shutdown now also retires detached model-switch summary processes.
Release notes

0.5.3

September 7, 2026

Shutdown no longer strands a finished session

  • Quitting with an idle provider could leave stale process ownership in the database, so a chat that had succeeded appeared failed at the next launch.
  • Normal shutdown now records a recoverable stopped state and preserves both the conversation and the provider resume identifier.
  • Completed, cancelled, and failed outcomes are unchanged.
Release notes

0.5.2

September 7, 2026

macOS startup and window lifecycle

  • Startup errors report their actual cause instead of aborting through the native launch callback.
  • Concurrent copies of the app can no longer start competing desktop hosts or kill another build's daemon.
  • Long socket paths fail early with an actionable error.
  • Packaging verifies the icon, sidecars, signatures, entitlements, notarization ticket, and exact disk image contents.
Release notes

0.5.1

September 4, 2026

The notarized build launches

  • WebKit JIT entitlements are granted under the Hardened Runtime.
  • Window chrome catches Objective-C exceptions instead of aborting the process.
Release notes

0.5.0

September 4, 2026

First public macOS disk image

  • Developer ID signed and notarized for macOS 12 or later on Apple Silicon.
  • The Codex, Claude Code, and OpenCode command-line tools stay optional.
