Changelog

v0.1.256 (2026-09-06)

• Resume an agent’s previous session when recreating a worktree at the same path with workmux add --continue, optionally supplying a follow-up prompt.
• Fix workmux send failing to deliver multiline messages and single-line Codex prompts on Kitty. (#268)
• Report missing executables selected with --agent before creating branches or worktrees for local launches.
• Select an agent with -a or --agent in the worktree skill, and preserve attachment paths in delegated prompts.
• Reuse agents’ existing conversations for follow-up work with the coordinator skill, including after worktrees are merged or removed.

v0.1.255 (2026-09-05)

• Improve sidebar performance without sacrificing responsiveness:
  • Cut background Git status CPU by 74% in benchmarks.
  • Cut GitHub status refresh CPU by 60% in benchmarks.
  • Cut tmux observation CPU by 26% in a large-session benchmark.
• Show accurate Git status for agents in nested directories, shared repositories, and linked worktrees while ignoring directories outside Git repositories.
• Keep agent sessions available to resurrect after multiplexer restarts and workmux upgrades without accumulating duplicate history.

v0.1.254 (2026-09-03)

• Fix workmux send leaving prompts unsubmitted in active Codex panes. (#261)
• Speed up sandbox startup for repositories with large local Git configurations. (#266)

v0.1.253 (2026-09-02)

• Configure the shell and arguments used for lifecycle hooks with hook_shell, including machine-specific shell paths and flags.
• Fix Pi panes being marked done during interrupted compaction or retry turns; they remain working until a successful continuation finishes.

v0.1.252 (2026-09-01)

• Fix: Kitty worktree creation and status tracking tolerate unavailable foreground process metadata. (#265)

v0.1.251 (2026-09-01)

• Fix: Generate concise branch names for question-style --auto-name prompts, and reject invalid model responses before creating a worktree. (#264)
• Harden multiplexer command execution and worktree cleanup against untrusted shell text, repository-controlled Git hooks, and filesystem target replacement.
• Clear completed or waiting status immediately when the agent pane is already focused.

v0.1.250 (2026-08-30)

• Fix: Keep pane-less agent status updates tied to the correct tmux pane, preventing unrelated shells and editors from being marked as active. (#252)

v0.1.249 (2026-08-30)

• Improve sidebar performance by reducing startup latency, idle wakeups, tmux polling, and rendering overhead.
• Register agent panes on startup so they appear immediately in the sidebar and dashboard. (Agent harness support varies.)

v0.1.248 (2026-08-26)

• Set dashboard.close_on_jump: false to keep the dashboard open when jumping between agents and worktrees. (#226)

v0.1.247 (2026-08-25)

• Use workmux status --all and workmux list --all to inspect tracked agents and worktrees across every repository in the current multiplexer.
• Configure the dashboard’s initial sort order with dashboard.sort_mode. (#249, #250)
• Use idempotent workmux sidebar on and workmux sidebar off commands for global and session-scoped sidebar lifecycle control.
• Set sidebar width or height when enabling it, using terminal units or percentages.
• Fix sidebar colors failing to update after configuration changes and stale selections lingering after switching agents.
• Raise the deny-mode network proxy connection limit, make it configurable, and return an HTTP 503 response when the proxy reaches capacity.
• Restore workmux add for Git LFS repositories while keeping shared Git configuration and hooks read-only in container sandboxes. (#256, #258)

v0.1.246 (2026-08-24)

• Fix container startup failing with network.policy: deny when the host provides IPv6 nameservers, which happens with Podman. (#254)

v0.1.245 (2026-08-23)

• Fix agents losing write access to the worktree under rootless Podman with network.policy: deny. (#253)
• Fix stale agent status, title, and activity age lingering in the sidebar when tmux reuses a pane ID for a different process.

v0.1.244 (2026-08-22)

• window_prefix accepts the {project} placeholder, which expands to the main worktree’s directory name. A single global config can namespace tmux window and session names per repository. (#230)
• Fix a regression from the Git security hardening in v0.1.241 that caused protected Git operations to ignore standard global and system configuration. Global ignore rules apply consistently to merge safety checks.

v0.1.243 (2026-08-21)

• Add Grok (SpaceXAI) as a supported agent for status tracking, interactive prompt injection, and skills. workmux setup installs status hooks and bundled skills under ~/.grok/ or $GROK_HOME. (#207)
• workmux add --fork works with Codex. Bare --fork picks the Codex session you are in, or the most recent one recorded for the current worktree, and --fork=<id> takes a session ID or an unambiguous prefix. (#229)
• The dashboard agents table can be reordered and trimmed with the dashboard.agent_columns option. (#225)
• workmux add --pr accepts pull request URLs from GitHub Enterprise installations, not only github.com.
• Passing -a/--agent no longer replaces explicitly configured pane commands such as nvim, which also stops a second agent from being spawned. The agent goes into a plain shell pane, and layouts where every pane has a command are left as they are. (#243)
• Fix the prompt being injected twice into panes whose command is written out literally as the agent’s own command. (#242)

v0.1.242 (2026-08-20)

• workmux setup installs the Copilot CLI status hook once at the user level (~/.copilot/hooks/workmux-status.json), so pane status tracking works in every repository without per-repository setup. Requires Copilot CLI 0.0.422 or later, and unrelated hooks in that file are preserved. If a repository still has a .github/hooks/workmux-status directory, remove it to avoid running the hook twice. (#247)

v0.1.241 (2026-08-20)

• Harden Git handling across sandbox backends. Container guests can no longer modify shared Git configuration or hooks, while normal commits and branch operations continue to work. Workmux host Git operations also ignore repository-controlled hooks and executable Git settings.
• Freeze the effective configuration when a sandbox session starts, preventing guest changes to .workmux.yaml from altering host-side spawn, status, merge, or close operations during that session.

v0.1.240 (2026-08-19)

• Apply configured pane percentage values in the Kitty backend, so layouts split the same way they do in tmux. Percentage sizing requires Kitty’s splits layout; absolute size values remain unsupported there. (#239)
• Treat custom tmux status_icons as plain text when clearing a status on pane focus, so icons containing tmux syntax work as written.

v0.1.239 (2026-08-18)

• Set sidebar.dim_stale: false to keep stale sidebar rows in their normal status colors instead of dimming them. (#234)
• Keep OpenCode panes marked as working while any parent or subagent session is active, and avoid false completion indicators from untracked or deleted sessions. (#235)
• Detect outdated Pi and Oh My Pi status extensions during workmux setup and offer to replace them, preventing excessive status update processes from older extensions.

v0.1.237 (2026-08-09)

• Make workmux status --json return a versioned observation object instead of an array, with scope and state-file diagnostics. Unresolved explicit targets return partial results with a nonzero exit status. (#210)
• Treat <global> as empty when the corresponding global hook or file-operation list is unset, allowing shared project configs to work without matching global values. (#224)

v0.1.236 (2026-08-08)

• Show working, waiting, and done status icons in Zellij tab titles. (#220)
• Keep agent status updates tied to the correct pane when background hooks run without TMUX_PANE (seems to happens with Claude Code occasionally).
• Track Codex subagents through new dedicated stop hooks, keeping the pane marked as working until the root turn finishes.
• Place new tmux windows in the session whose pane paths best match the current directory when pane context is unavailable, and return an actionable error when multiple sessions match equally well.

v0.1.235 (2026-08-07)

• Close and remove the correct tmux windows even after they are renamed, without affecting unrelated windows that reuse the original name. (#212)
• Redraw the full sidebar cleanly after terminal resizes, preventing fragments of the previous layout from remaining on screen.
• Prevent sidebar auto-exit from killing the active pane in another window. (#219)

v0.1.234 (2026-08-04)

• Sort sidebar rows by recent activity or tmux window order with sidebar.sort, and show native tmux window numbers in custom layouts with {window_index}. (#214) (#215)
• Prevent filesystem reads from triggering continuous sidebar refreshes on Linux, eliminating config reload loops and unnecessary CPU use. (#217) (#218)
• Keep agent views available and clean up stale state when a tmux pane disappears. (#213)
• Preserve the exact spelling and capitalization of parent tmux session names passed to workmux add or workmux open.
• Accept branch names from automatic naming commands that exit without reading the prompt from stdin.
• Let bundled agent skills dispatch cross-project worktrees directly into the requested tmux session without an intermediate window.

v0.1.233 (2026-08-02)

• Preserve valid auto-generated Git branch names, including slash-separated names such as fix/issue-123. (#206)
• Include agent type, working directory, tmux session and window, and last-update time in workmux status --json. (#210)
• Keep agents visible in status views when a tmux pane query fails temporarily. (#209)

v0.1.232 (2026-07-31)

• Use the mouse throughout the dashboard to switch tabs, select or open rows, run actions, scroll previews and diffs, and navigate files.
• Show GitHub checks for remote branches without pull requests in the sidebar and dashboard, including failure indicators for main branches.
• Keep sidebar GitHub status refreshes efficient across linked worktrees, reducing redundant requests for the same repository.
• Keep the dashboard’s current-session filter tied to the active tmux session when opened in a popup.

v0.1.126 (2026-02-28)

• Added workmux update command for self-updating workmux directly from GitHub releases. Downloads the latest version, verifies checksums, and replaces the binary in place. Homebrew-managed installs are detected and directed to use brew upgrade instead
• workmux now automatically checks for updates in the background and shows a notification when a newer version is available. Checks happen at most once per day during workmux add. Disable with auto_update_check: false in config or by setting the WORKMUX_NO_UPDATE_CHECK environment variable

v0.1.125 (2026-02-28)

• Added Apple Container as a sandbox runtime alongside Docker and Podman, enabling sandboxing on macOS using Apple’s native container technology (macOS 26+, Apple Silicon).

v0.1.123 (2026-02-24)

• Add GitHub Copilot CLI as a supported agent for status tracking. Copilot hooks are installed per-repository via workmux setup. Note: the waiting state is not supported due to Copilot CLI hooks API limitations

v0.1.122 (2026-02-23)

• Fork branch references (e.g., someuser:feature) now prefix the local branch name with the fork owner (someuser-feature), preventing conflicts with existing branches like main

v0.1.120 (2026-02-21)

• Built-in agents (claude, gemini, codex, opencode) are now auto-detected in pane commands, so prompt injection works without the <agent> placeholder or a matching agent config. Just use the agent name directly as the pane command (e.g., command: "codex --yolo") and prompts are delivered automatically. (#57)

v0.1.119 (2026-02-21)

• Added session mode: worktrees can now be created as their own tmux sessions instead of windows, giving each worktree a separate window list, history, and layout. Enable with --session flag or mode: session in config.

v0.1.114 (2026-02-15)

• Sandbox: Host git identity (user.name, user.email) is now automatically available inside sandbox environments, so git commits from sandboxed agents use the correct author

v0.1.112 (2026-02-13)

• Added sandbox support for running agents in isolated environments. Two backends: containers (Docker/Podman) for ephemeral sessions, and Lima VMs for persistent machines with built-in Nix/Devbox toolchain support. See the sandbox guide for setup.

v0.1.101 (2026-01-29)

• Fixed status icons breaking tmux themes that use padding spaces in window format strings (#45)

v0.1.100 (2026-01-26)

• Added nested config support for monorepos: place a .workmux.yaml in any subdirectory to configure that project independently. When you run workmux from a subdirectory, it finds the nearest config. Working directory, file operations, and hooks are all scoped to the config directory. (#39)
• Added WM_CONFIG_DIR environment variable for hooks, pointing to the directory containing the .workmux.yaml that was used

• The create command now displays which base branch was used
• Improved validation for pane configurations with helpful error messages

v0.1.10 (2025-11-09)

• Added --from flag to add command to specify which branch, commit, or tag to branch from
• Fixed rm command failing when run from within the worktree being removed
