v0.8.2

Compare Source

Added

• CLI help now points coding agents to Herdr's plain-text guide, documentation index, and built-in control skill.
• Added Qwen Code detection for idle, working, and user-confirmation states, plus optional native session restore. (#​2730, #​2743)
• Herdr now keeps the outer terminal window title in sync with the session through ui.window_title, so window managers and terminal tab bars show the active workspace and the host the panes actually run on. (#​2627, thanks @​dhh)
• The desktop tab bar now has configurable right-aligned status entries for zoom state, hostname, date/time, literal text, and asynchronously refreshed command output.
• Optional keys.move_tab_previous and keys.move_tab_next bindings now reorder the active tab in place, wrapping at either end. (#​2561, thanks @​dhh)
• Optional keys.resize_pane_left, keys.resize_pane_down, keys.resize_pane_up, and keys.resize_pane_right bindings now resize the focused pane in one keystroke without entering resize mode. (#​2558, thanks @​dhh)
• Windows clients can now use herdr --remote to attach to Herdr servers on Linux and macOS. (#​2329)
• Cursor Agent CLI, MastraCode, Hermes Agent, and Grok CLI integrations now install and run natively on Windows.
• Panes can now route normal right-click gestures to mouse-reporting applications through the pane menu, herdr pane input, pane.input.set, or the pane split --right-click pane launch option.
• ui.pane_outer_borders can now keep or hide the outside edges of split-pane borders independently from internal dividers. (#​2535, thanks @​dhh)
• theme.custom.sidebar_bg can now give the desktop sidebar its own background without changing built-in theme defaults.
• Settings and ui.status_indicators = "symbols" can now use distinct static shapes for blocked, working, done, idle, and unknown agent states. (#​2260)
• Navigate-mode selection rows now use a dedicated per-theme cursor color, customizable via theme.custom.selection_bg, so the cursor stays distinguishable from the active Space and Agent highlight.
• Copy mode now supports B, E, and W motions over whitespace-delimited big words. (#​2270, thanks @​jplew)
• The plugin marketplace now discovers valid manifests at repository roots and subdirectories, groups multiple plugins under each repository, and publishes their versions and exact default-branch commits.

Changed

• Windows support is now generally available through stable releases and uses the stable update channel by default. Existing preview installs stay on preview until explicitly switched.
• Headless servers now use a configurable 120×40 virtual terminal instead of 80×24 when no client is attached, giving newly created panes a practical default size. (#​2828)
• Desktop tab labels are now centered in their tabs, so the active-tab highlight has symmetric padding. (#​2570, thanks @​dhh)
• Experimental pane graphics now support bounded named layers, acknowledged full-RGBA primary-layer direct file frames on audited local terminals, owned BGRA fallback, exact pixel mouse input, and placement-only resize replay.

Fixed

• Unix CLI commands now exit quietly when a downstream pipe closes instead of panicking with exit 101. (#​2994)
• The terminal theme now keeps the active Space row fill visible when the Navigate cursor lands on it, in both expanded and collapsed sidebars. (#​2987)
• Busy multi-pane sessions now avoid redundant hidden-pane wakeups and full terminal-state formatting in pane-scaled paths, preventing CPU regressions from high-rate background output, scrollbars, and enhanced keyboard modes. (#​2550, #​2901, #​2962)
• Chinese IME commits now reach panes on macOS when the focused application requests printable key-release events. (#​2924)
• Windows now recognizes Ctrl+1 through Ctrl+9 keybindings instead of decoding those key records as control characters. (#​2910)
• PowerShell panes now keep their process-reported working directory synchronized with the shell's logical location. (#​2879, thanks @​Pimpmuckl)
• Foreground typing no longer waits behind render cadence consumed by output from panes in hidden tabs. (#​2890)
• The Windows ARM64 installer now waits for x64 emulation to release the verified executable before activating the downloaded release. (#​2916)
• On Unix, Ctrl-click URL openers are now reaped after they exit, preventing defunct child processes from accumulating on long-running servers. (#​2903)
• Windows updates now reuse only verified local packages, avoiding security-tool download blocks while preserving checksum validation. (#​2751, #​2816, thanks @​Pimpmuckl)
• Herdr no longer sends the full OSC 4 palette query burst under WSL, preventing reply fragments from leaking into the shell through ConPTY. (#​2440)
• Qwen Code panes now use locale-independent terminal-title states and localized confirmation fallbacks, preventing active or blocked turns from appearing idle. (#​2756)
• Claude Code panes now recognize and strip every half-circle title spinner frame, preventing active turns from appearing idle and keeping titles clean. (#​2707, #​2709, #​2760, #​2762)
• Copilot prompts now focus the target pane before sending input, so background panes do not silently drop prompts. (#​1698, #​2734, thanks @​xkrogen)
• Agent hooks now invoke the running Herdr binary instead of whichever binary appears first on PATH. (#​2722, thanks @​Pimpmuckl)
• Closing a terminal running herdr --remote no longer produces a local client core dump while the remote session stays alive. (#​2424)
• Active Space and Agent rows now use dedicated theme colors that remain visible when the host terminal background matches the selected Herdr theme. (#​2792)
• agent prompt now rejects agents already waiting at approval or question dialogs with agent_blocked, without sending text or Enter. (#​2788)
• agent start now waits for new pane shells and first-run agent prompts to become ready instead of racing them or reporting premature readiness. (#​2410, #​2537, #​2773, #​2774, thanks @​Pimpmuckl)
• prefix+e now preserves logical lines when opening soft-wrapped scrollback in an editor. (#​2733)
• Alternate-screen pane reads avoid unnecessary ANSI formatting work, reducing read latency for TUI agents. (#​2387, #​2426)
• Tab bar clicks are now properly registered when using Ghostty in native fullscreen. (#​796, #​2736, thanks @​HackAttack)
• Prefix keybindings now disambiguate layout-aware shifted punctuation, so a shifted \ no longer triggers prefix+| on keyboard layouts where the same key produces both characters. (#​2674)
• Remote clients now continue redrawing at very large terminal sizes instead of freezing when a full ANSI frame exceeds the transport limit. (#​2670)
• Windows Git status refreshes now reuse repository configuration instead of repeatedly triggering security scans for WSL repositories. (#​2643, #​2688, thanks @​Pimpmuckl)
• Windows idle agent detection now shares process snapshots across panes, reducing CPU use in sessions with many Git Bash panes. (#​2459, #​2494, #​2642, #​2651, thanks @​Pimpmuckl)
• Embedded bare repositories now derive the correct repository name and worktree location. (#​2657, #​2660)
• Root-repository workspaces now retain their saved labels across update restarts. (#​2594, #​2727)
• Elevated Windows panes no longer expose PowerShell's administrator decoration as the terminal title. (#​2632, thanks @​Pimpmuckl)
• Modal name inputs now anchor the host IME cursor to the text field instead of the pane behind the dialog. (#​1755, #​2569, thanks @​kataokatsuki)
• Session Navigator movement ignores modified j, k, and arrow keys instead of consuming unrelated pane input. (#​1981, #​2377, thanks @​atomsbaza)
• OpenCode panes now track the root conversation selected in their own TUI for native restore without adopting activity from attached clients. (#​2450)
• Server stop requests now bypass pane and API traffic, preventing busy sessions from blocking shutdown or admitting a client while shutdown is pending. (#​2612)
• Fish Ctrl+Alt keybindings now work in panes after legacy Alt-prefixed control bytes are decoded with both modifiers. (#​2514)
• Windows recent-history reads no longer perform redundant snapshots, restoring recent output while reducing read cost. (#​962, #​2474, thanks @​Pimpmuckl)
• The Windows installer now activates releases with an atomic directory swap, preventing interrupted updates from leaving an empty release directory. (#​2356, #​2530, thanks @​Pimpmuckl)
• herdr config check now reports unknown built-in theme names instead of silently accepting them. (#​2452)
• macOS herdr --remote clients now keep the accepted bridge socket blocking, preventing an immediate disconnect after the protocol handshake. (#​2478, thanks @​mathijshenquet)
• Prefix keybindings now preserve Shift in WezTerm Kitty keyboard mode, so commands such as config reload no longer trigger their unshifted action. (#​2435)
• Pane applications now receive modifyOtherKeys releases and shifted alternate reports without dropped releases or leaked Ctrl+Tab sequences. (#​2296, #​2302, #​2303)
• Detaching now restores host keyboard reporting, preventing enhanced keyboard sequences from leaking into the shell after Herdr exits. (#​2393, #​2395)
• Default mouse reports are decoded instead of leaking escape bytes into the focused pane. (#​2309, #​2312)
• BEL characters emitted by pane programs now reach the outer terminal so its audible and visual bell settings can react. (#​2453)
• Stable direct installs, self-updates, and remote helper downloads now require and verify the SHA-256 digest published for each GitHub release asset.
• pane read and pane wait-output now accept --flag=value and options before or after the pane ID. (#​2183, thanks @​KyleCo76)
• pane current, pane get, and pane layout --current now resolve the calling pane instead of another client's focused pane. (#​2297, #​2298)
• Configs containing the retired Herdr-written ui.agent_panel_scope setting no longer report it as an unknown key after upgrades. (#​2292)
• Claude Code confirmation prompts using Enter to confirm · Esc to cancel now report blocked instead of idle. (#​2268)
• Kiro CLI prompts now have positive idle detection instead of remaining in an unknown state. (#​2301, thanks @​smileynet)
• Cursor's Run Everything footer no longer produces a false blocked state. (#​1763, #​2220, thanks @​Nagi-ovo)
• Versioned Python agent wrappers such as python3.13 are now detected. (#​2188, thanks @​plarson)
• Pi state reporting now ignores RPC, JSON, and print-mode helper processes that are not interactive TUI sessions. (#​2159, thanks @​rhjoh)
• Collapsed workspace and Agent rows keep their status and active indicators visible, including with ten or more workspaces. (#​2216, #​2239, #​2382, thanks @​ianks)
• Sidebar agent lists keep scrolling when differently sized clients are attached to the same session. (#​2255, thanks @​aiworkflowpro)
• The Session Navigator now searches renamed single-tab labels. (#​2320)

• Ctrl-clicking a URL no longer forwards its release after the browser takes host focus, preventing duplicate tabs. (#​2290, #​2291, thanks @​kataokatsuki)
• OSC 4 palette overrides now render with the requested color instead of forwarding the palette index. (#​2162, thanks @​hamidi-dev)
• Host terminal appearance is re-queried when focus returns, keeping automatic light and dark themes current. (#​2416, #​2417)
• The bundled and installable Herdr agent skill now matches this stable release's CLI and lifecycle behavior. (#​2847)
• pane send-keys and agent send-keys now preserve Shift when sending shift+tab, allowing agent permission modes to be cycled programmatically. (#​1561, thanks @​keinstn and @​tomohisa)

• OMP integrations now preserve Windows absolute session paths for native restore. (#​2092, thanks @​art-wiedzmin)
• Claude integration updates preserve existing settings key order and formatting. (#​2066)
• Physical Escape key records on native Windows now bypass raw VT report framing, so pane applications receive Escape immediately and reliably. (#​1736)
• Native Windows key presses, grouped repeats, and releases now preserve their physical lifecycle and stay with the pane that received the initial press. (#​2077)
• Windows pane send-keys and agent send-keys now deliver semantic Escape as a complete key tap, preventing a following key from being interpreted as an Alt chord.

• Ctrl+_ input bytes now decode as Ctrl+_ instead of Ctrl+-. (#​2164, #​2165, thanks @​Sertug17)
• Prefix and navigate modes now recognize non-US shifted keybindings while retaining legacy US punctuation support. (#​1870)

• Windows installation preserves inherited PATH and related environment variables. (#​1947)
• Windows agent process discovery preserves the owning parent agent across wrapper processes. (#​1514)
• The Rose Pine surface_dim color remains visible when the outer terminal uses a matching theme. (#​1946, #​2002, thanks @​brabli)
