Improvement0.0.12

Desktop v0.0.12

Desktop v0.0.12 introduces a redesigned transcript view where each tool call gets its own row with status indicators and inline diffs, updates typography and UI styling with Inter and Geist Mono, and fixes several critical issues including Hub daemon reconnection, Claude Code provider integration, and output token handling for reasoning models.

  • Every tool call now gets its own row in the transcript, with its own icon, status, and expandable detail — no more "Read 3 files · Ran 2 commands" grouping. Commands read like a terminal ($ bun test) with their captured output on expand, and edits show their diffs inline, one per hunk.
  • Running tool rows are highlighted in brand violet and settle to gray when they finish; errors stay red.
  • File diffs — both in chat rows and the diff panel — now render through a shared syntax-highlighted renderer that follows the app's theme instead of the browser's.
  • Refreshed session transcript layout, message surfaces, and composer, with new Inter and Geist Mono typography.
  • The thinking indicator now stays up during quiet stretches of a turn, such as while tool arguments are streaming, so the turn no longer looks frozen.
  • Message actions (copy, fork, timestamp) no longer crowd the message text, and expanded panels render at full opacity instead of faded.
  • On the welcome screen the chat input is centered and top-aligned, and prompt suggestions are temporarily hidden.
  • The first turn of a fresh session no longer wedges the composer on "Agent is working…" forever.
  • Scheduled runs no longer appear in the session sidebar and history list.
  • Reconnecting to a stale managed Cline Hub daemon is fixed. When another Cline install ships a newer Hub, the app now prompts to update and restart — and stages the app update first, so it no longer relaunches into the same version and immediately re-prompts.
  • The Hub daemon now shuts down cleanly instead of exiting with an error when a client is still connected.
  • The Claude Code provider is usable for agentic work again: sessions are anchored on the workspace folder, your ~/.claude and project settings are loaded, and file edits under the workspace are allowed instead of every write being refused with no approval prompt.
  • Truncated tool-call JSON is now rejected instead of being silently "repaired" into wrong arguments.
  • Fixed strict providers (seen on Vercel with kimi-k3) rejecting a turn with "user message must have content" when a message held only empty text.
  • Fixed a mid-turn crash on streamed tool calls with non-zero indexes, hit through LiteLLM's Anthropic passthrough.
  • Compaction now respects your Max Output Tokens setting instead of a hardcoded 1024-token cap — reasoning models were spending the entire budget thinking, so no summary arrived and compaction was skipped every time.
  • Vertex AI: added Fable 5 and custom model IDs, and the global-region picker no longer hides models from the live catalog.
