v0.5.30 — Desktop ↔ web bridge overhaul

Highlights

  • Major reliability pass on the connection between the chat and your open project
  • Live desktop heartbeat in chat so you can see when the editor is actually reachable
  • Required-update flow with clear full-screen guidance when auto-update cannot migrate your install
  • AI leans on live engine state before reporting that work succeeded

Changes

Added
  • Dismissible banner when a chat stream stalls waiting on the desktop bridge
  • /api/desktop/alive signal wired into the chat experience
  • Full-screen update blocker for installs that must migrate before continuing
Improved
  • Cached chat history for faster sidebar loads when reopening projects
  • Prompt context wait window extended to match the desktop relay under heavy turns
  • Agent prompts emphasize runtime evidence over assumptions after tool calls
  • macOS and Windows 0.5.30 builds notarized / signed with both export template flavors
Fixed
  • Editor state reads stay responsive during long AI turns with many tool calls
  • Watchdog recovers stalled streams instead of leaving silent placeholders
  • Update prompts only surface when a full reinstall is actually required
