Tempest v0.1.14
Tempest v0.1.14
Cutting the friction out of launching an agent on an existing branch.
What's in this release
Branch session menu — flatter, faster
Launching an agent from a branch's "+" menu used to be a two-step: pick the agent, then land on a separate prompt panel, then submit. Now the menu has the same flat shape as the project-level NewSessionMenu — a shared optional prompt textarea at the top of the dropdown, and clicking any agent spawns immediately with that prompt. One click instead of two, and the menu now sources agents from the merged useAgents() registry, so custom agents added in Settings (v0.1.13) show up here too. Removed ~200 lines of the old two-view state machine along the way.
Platform Support
| Platform | Status |
|---|---|
| Windows 11 (x64) | Supported. Pre-built binary available. MSI and NSIS installers. |
| macOS | Supported. Separate arm64 and x86_64 builds. |
| Linux | Supported. x86_64 and arm64 AppImage + deb. |
Windows requires WebView2 (bundled automatically when necessary).
Database Branches (from v0.1.5) additionally require Docker; without it the feature stays dormant and everything else works normally.
Atlas semantic search (from v0.1.10, fixed in v0.1.11) downloads a ~25 MB embedding model on first opt-in.
What's next
Improved version of Atlas is already landing behind this release — asset nodes and describes edges, so retrieval can hop from a component to the image/JSON/CSS it references without leaving the graph. Beyond that, the roadmap's "Now building" threads carry forward: Threads polish, Hephaestus hardening across all three OSes, Automations graduating out of beta, more agents through the Bridge pattern, and keyboard-native everything.
