Changelog

New releases of Amoeba, newest first.

0.1.49Latest

Oct 14, 2026

More reliable prompting, clearer Hive conversations, and everyday fixes.

Improved

  • Hive conversations open full screen with real GitHub photos, provider avatars, and stable agent and subagent identities.
  • Shared goals show acceptance criteria and progress, retain messages through reconnects, and apply checked task results without duplicate activity.
  • Follow-up prompts preserve valid conversations after session updates, provider switches and temporary failures.
  • Connect and install CLI providers inside Amoeba, with clearer recovery guidance and supported model and effort choices.
  • Authenticated updates prepare in the background on supported macOS and Windows installations.
  • Smaller service runtime payloads retain offline tools.

Fixed

  • Request mode displays native permission requests and visible tool denials. Stop clears pending approvals and stays stopped during final checks.
  • Long reasoning and tool results display in order without duplicate replay.
  • Onboarding stays in the selected session and keeps provider controls usable.
  • Slow ACP startup recovers, and Claude sign-in uses current authorization links.

0.1.48

Oct 9, 2026

Private learning, clearer collaboration, and better agent control.

New

  • Hive can turn checked task results into reusable knowledge. Suggested personal behavior preferences stay private and unverified until you explicitly accept them, with controls to correct or forget them.
  • Attach Markdown files to prompts in Editor and Vibecoder.

Improved

  • Configure Hive settings before launching the first agent.
  • Escape interrupts the running agent across the app; provider sessions remain available for the next prompt.
  • Collaborator surfaces use GitHub profile photos.

Fixed

  • Session sharing requires explicit participation, and live output shows temporary recovery status after a reconnect.
  • People can recover when a repository lookup returns 404.
  • Claude sessions on Windows start reliably and load the correct repository instructions in child worktrees.
  • Terminal commands keep their input in order when typing or pasting, including Enter.
  • Improved managed agent startup on Windows.
  • Log in, Sign up, and Terms remain accessible in compact windows.
  • Shared Git sync controls show a teammate's latest saved choice and keep keyboard focus on the selected option.
  • Claude model discovery preserves advertised Opus 5.5 models.

0.1.46

Oct 8, 2026

Introducing the all-new Amoeba. A new era for building with AI.

New

  • 🎨 A huge redesign. Down to the details. Our most ambitious release yet brings rebuilt Mission Control, a cleaner Editor and Vibecoder, and redesigned sessions, onboarding and Settings. A fresh experience from the moment you open your repo.
  • 🧬 Native Amoeba. Extraordinary possibilities. The Amoeba coding harness brings repository context, code graph tools, terminal tools, Plan and Build permissions, and live collaboration into your workspace. From the first idea to the next commit.
  • ⚡ 180+ models. A world of choice. Frontier models, Kimi, MiniMax and more, with supported reasoning controls. Use Amoeba credits or connect your own provider.
  • 🧠 Meet JevRouter. A reported coding benchmark comparison puts it at approximately 99% of Opus 5.5's score at 40% lower cost per task. Results vary by workload.

Improved

  • 🐝 Your agents. Working together. Hive brings clearer shared goals, lead-agent selection, agent controls and spending settings alongside collaboration and live file sync.
  • 🎛️ More control over how you build. The model picker shows each model's supported reasoning controls, including effort levels, thinking toggles, and fixed or default behavior.
  • ✨ Clarity while you work. Amoeba model names remain readable while a prompt is running.
  • 💎 Every tiny charge, visible. Managed prompt footers show settled costs across the full tool loop, preserve tiny charges, and display zero as $0.00000000. Pending receipts refresh when settlement arrives.

Fixed

  • Successful managed prompts stay successful when run cleanup encounters a persistence conflict.
  • Prompt startup and recovery handle stale lifecycle state consistently.
  • Turn costs use the session and agent's authoritative receipts, including older conversations when their run can be identified safely.

0.1.43

Oct 1, 2026

Reliable interruption, invitations, and continuous file sync.

Improved

  • Resume saved provider conversations with /session and /resume when the provider supports it.
  • Review shared-file conflicts in a dedicated sidebar tab, with less autosave clutter.

Fixed

  • Escape stops the running provider and its tools immediately, with a visible interrupt hint.
  • Invite teammates into the selected session, including teammates joining a workspace for the first time.
  • Keep live file sync running across branch switches, commits, and detached HEAD while preserving local edits and Git history.
  • Keep conflict recovery scoped to the active session and retry safely during Git operations.

0.1.42

Sep 30, 2026

Live file collaboration and more reliable updates.

Improved

  • Live working-file sync with editing avatars and conflict recovery.
  • Control automatic Git sync per workspace, with saved changes batched every five seconds.
  • Enable or disable automatic updates for Linux AppImages in Settings.
  • More reliable Cursor model discovery and clearer model and reasoning-effort selection.
  • Workspace AMOEBA.md settings and optional preparation commands before Build.

0.1.40

Sep 24, 2026

Amoeba v0.1.40 improves the editor, providers, keyboard controls, and prompt handling on Linux, Windows, and macOS Apple Silicon.

Improved

  • Choose reasoning effort for custom API models.
  • Edit or remove saved provider keys and custom providers.
  • Restored editable Explorer highlighting and selected-code comments.
  • Platform-specific shortcuts and editable keyboard bindings.
  • Accurate Codex running status and context usage beside the model picker.
  • Long prompts pass through collaboration context lookup.
  • Improved Linux packaging and update delivery.

0.1.38

Sep 21, 2026

Amoeba v0.1.38

Improved

  • Adds native voice dictation and manual file editing.
  • Improves saved provider model catalogs, model defaults, prompt layout, and queued prompts.
  • Fixes file selection, focused Select All, source-control commits, and repository sharing.
  • Adds Linux update controls and improves update notifications.

0.1.37

Sep 19, 2026

Fixes and improvements

Improved

  • Instagram, TikTok, and other in-app browser tabs now close when you return from a session to Mission Control.
  • Model discovery now reads Hermes-style ACP catalogs and launches OpenCode model commands consistently across platforms.
  • Custom API providers retain their saved model catalogs and no longer rediscover them for each prompt.
  • Session model and reasoning-effort selections persist when you reopen a session.
  • Teammates can see unfinished output and reasoning as it arrives, with better recovery after reconnecting.
  • Collaboration supports up to twenty workspace agents, keeps shared context and file snapshots current, and displays each teammate's provider and model.
  • Repository creation and private-repository invitations have clearer readiness and access handling.
  • Workspace searches can be cancelled without blocking later work; live output stays with its own session.
  • Claude coordination-tool approvals and Amoeba review hooks follow the correct session and application scope.

0.1.35

Sep 18, 2026

Amoeba v0.1.35

Improved

  • Opening Amoeba again now restores the native Amoeba window instead of opening a stock VS Code window.
  • Fixed an app-exit crash when terminals are still running.
  • Chat links are clickable, with a choice of the system browser or Amoeba's in-app browser.
  • Agent edits preserve existing executable-file permissions.
  • Imported repositories keep their normal Git transport; reopening repairs the legacy Amoeba override that could break fetch and push.
  • Esc in the prompt box stops the selected agent run.
  • Removed the blank room header strips; the console can extend to the header when no file is open.

0.1.34

Sep 17, 2026

Amoeba v0.1.34 ships together for macOS Apple Silicon, Windows x64, and Linux x64 (AppImage).

Improved

  • A single model pill opens the searchable model picker and an effort slider. The selected model stays visible during catalog refreshes.
  • Custom OpenAI-compatible providers gain directory listing, regex search, exact-text edits, and shell commands alongside file reading and writing. Request mode asks before edits and commands; unknown tool names return a recoverable tool error.
  • Cancelling or timing out custom-provider commands terminates their process tree and prevents queued tools from starting after cancellation.
  • Retired pricing, quota, and billing controls are removed.
  • Diagnostic upload handling and mobile invite email layout fixes are included in the source release.
  • macOS: built and signed on Apple Silicon, notarized and stapled by Apple, Gatekeeper accepted for both the app and the disk image, every native binary confirmed arm64-only, and the packaged runtime exercised through the real app UI.
  • Windows: built and signed through Azure Trusted Signing, then installed and exercised on Windows from the exact signed bytes, covering both the installer and the portable archive.
  • Linux: the AppImage launched and exercised on Ubuntu 24.04 and on Arch Linux, including the extraction fallback for hosts without FUSE, plus the updater's download, restart and install cycle.

0.1.33

Sep 15, 2026

Repository access and easier model setup.

New

  • Add all discovered models from a compatible API provider once, then switch models in chat.

Improved

  • Terminal shell startup, interactive pagers, font defaults, and resizing.

Fixed

  • GitHub sign-in no longer blocks the file explorer and terminal when the server omits automatic Git identity setup.
  • A failed model test no longer disables a saved provider.

0.1.32

Sep 12, 2026

Runtime packaging maintenance.

0.1.31

Sep 11, 2026

Fixes private GitHub repository session setup, signed-in account display, and session-start progress and error recovery.

0.1.30

Sep 10, 2026

Amoeba v0.1.30 is available for Windows x64 and Mac with Apple Silicon.

Improved

  • Refreshed onboarding with the interactive Amoeba mark and GitHub sign-in.
  • More reliable provider setup, explicit model selection, clearer retry errors, and recovery through Settings.

0.1.28

Sep 7, 2026

Maintenance update with improved provider reply handling, sign-in focus recovery, and a smaller app download.

0.1.27

Sep 5, 2026

Notes for this release are on the way.

0.1.26

Aug 30, 2026

Notes for this release are on the way.

0.1.25

Aug 27, 2026

GitHub sign-in shrugs off a flaky connection.

Fixed

  • The first step of signing in with GitHub could fail on a single DNS miss or a network change, even though the later steps already rode those out. Every step now retries the same way.

0.1.24

Aug 27, 2026

Windows finds its own updates.

Improved

  • Both the Windows installer and the portable ZIP are signed and timestamped.

Fixed

  • Windows was checking for updates against the wrong version number, so it could miss a new release. It now compares the Amoeba version and offers the update when there is one.

0.1.23

Aug 26, 2026

Sign in with GitHub works behind proxies and VPNs on Mac.

Improved

  • Mac and Windows ship from the same build again: both platforms are on 0.1.23 together.

Fixed

  • On Mac, Amoeba now talks to the Brain through the system network stack, so proxy, VPN and managed certificate settings are honored. If GitHub sign-in hung on a corporate network, this is the fix.

0.1.22

Aug 23, 2026

A fresh, signed Windows build.

New

  • Windows is freshly built, signed and timestamped, and catches up with everything since 0.1.19. The Mac build is unchanged from 0.1.21.

Fixed

  • An agent launched from a code comment now revives a collaboration room that had gone stale instead of failing to start.

0.1.21

Aug 19, 2026

Errors stay where they happened.

Improved

  • Images dropped into the composer show a preview.
  • Reasoning from command-line agents is color-coded in rooms.

Fixed

  • A composer error now stays with the session it came from instead of following you into the next one.

0.1.20

Aug 18, 2026

Agents think out loud, and the Mac installer looks like one.

New

  • Agent thinking, tool calls and replies stream into the session room as they happen, instead of arriving all at once when the turn ends.
  • The composer names the exact model that will run before you send.
  • Prompts can be copied straight from the transcript.

Improved

  • The Mac disk image opens as a proper installer: the app on the left, Applications on the right, drag across.
  • Every invite, to a session or a workspace, sends the onboarding email.
  • Switching providers confirms itself with a toast, and the Sessions list shows every workspace you belong to.

Fixed

  • Attention popups only appear when the window is in the background.
  • A run that ended without a reply no longer ends silently.

0.1.19

Aug 17, 2026

Agents launch reliably, however many repositories you connect.

Improved

  • The watcher now uses the platform's native recursive watching: one handle per repository instead of one per file, so big workspaces no longer eat the system's limits.

Fixed

  • On Macs with several repositories connected, launching an agent could fail with a bare "request failed". The file watcher was holding one open file handle per watched file, and past ten thousand or so macOS refuses to start anything new.

0.1.18

Aug 17, 2026

Updates on Mac now install themselves.

Fixed

  • Clicking Update now stages the update, quits, installs and relaunches on its own. Before this, the staged update was thrown away while the app was closing.
  • One catch: builds at 0.1.17 or older cannot apply this fix to themselves. Install this version once from the download, and every update after that is automatic.

0.1.16

Aug 16, 2026

Comment agents work where you asked for them.

Improved

  • An agent launched from a code comment now runs inline in your session, so you watch it work right where you asked.

0.1.10

Aug 13, 2026

Signed builds on both platforms.

New

  • The Windows build is signed and timestamped, and the Mac build is notarized by Apple. Both platforms install with a normal double click, no security warnings to click through.

0.1.9

Aug 12, 2026

Your agents can tap you on the shoulder.

New

  • Native system notifications when an agent finishes or needs your attention, so you can go do something else while it works.

Improved

  • Mac and Windows now ship from the same app source, so the two builds are the same product on the same day.

0.1.8

Aug 11, 2026

The native front door, with the scaffolding gone.

Improved

  • Amoeba opens straight into Mission Control and onboarding. The leftover code-editor startup path from earlier builds is removed.
  • Agents start in Request permission mode: nothing runs on your machine without asking first.

0.1.7

Aug 10, 2026

Leave a comment on a line, get an agent that read the room.

New

  • A Comment action appears at the edge of any hovered or highlighted code line.
  • A saved comment can launch an agent that arrives already knowing the repository, the file, the exact lines, the surrounding code and what you wrote.

0.1.6

Aug 9, 2026

Claude and Codex collaborate from the first minute.

New

  • A fresh workspace configures both Claude Code and Codex for shared-Brain coordination immediately, with the same collaboration instructions and the same tools.

Improved

  • Prompts now carry context for the selected session, including messages between agents scoped to the people in it.

0.1.5

Aug 9, 2026

The first signed Mac release.

New

  • The Mac build is Developer ID signed, hardened and notarized by Apple. It opens with a normal double click for the first time.
  • Native close, minimize and full-screen window controls behave like every other Mac app.
