4 October 2026

Worktree-first workspaces, context menus everywhere, Stop-hook message race fixed.

  • Worktrees: their lifecycle
  • Worktrees: workspaces are worktrees
  • Worktrees: the daemon

4 October 2026

Your phone reaches Tern from anywhere (Tailscale Funnel, Tern Relay); dictation crash fixed.

  • Remote access: Tailscale mode fails fast with what to do, and a setup checklist
v0.6.0
3 October 2026

SSH remote, runs, remote access from your phone, dictation, app icons.

  • Remote: the ssh socket path budget counts ssh's temporary suffix
  • Dictation: fix the crash, rewrite it cleanly, and keep its permissions
  • Settings drops a revoked device at once; SSH test stops its host daemon
  • Settings: Revoke works in Tern.app (click twice; the web view has no confirm())
  • Review fixes for remote access, dictation and app icons
  • Remote access: Tern on your phone, with end-to-end encrypted push
  • Voice dictation: macOS's speech recognizer, ⌥⌘V tap or hold
  • App icon variants: Ink, Paper, Terminal, Blueprint, Sunset
  • Review fixes for runs and SSH remote
  • SSH remote, part 2: a window on an SSH host
  • App: the project's files, git, gh and formatters go through hostio
  • SSH remote, part 1: tern bridge, tern --host, the host's files and commands
  • Runs page: plans, live run graph, step detail and controls
  • Orchestration: runs of agent steps, carried out by the daemon
v0.5.0
2 October 2026
  • Daemon: an agent's first hooks wait for its session to be registered
  • Updates: a card at the bottom right downloads, checks and installs a new Tern
  • Debugger: Flutter hot reload only while the app runs (a paused web app waits forever); a real Flutter app test
  • Debugger: any language — Dart, Flutter, JS/TS, Ruby, C/C++/Swift/Rust zero-config, your own adapters

  • Bottom bar: no F-key buttons; Shortcuts and the daemon on the right
  • Right sidebar: icons for its tabs (names in the tooltips)

  • Skills page: every agent's skills, installed and shared in one place
  • Skill: tern new after the task example

  • Attention: needs-you questions, unread, activity log, dashboard, native notifications
v0.4.0

Workspaces sidebar, split panes, no dialogs, themes, markdown, terminal scrollback.
