Changelog

v0.1.0

The first stable release includes the CLI help improvements from beta.17 and strengthens input ownership and filesystem completion.

• Only known local-path arguments trigger filesystem completion. Package names, repository and image names, expressions, and unknown command arguments no longer cause directory scans merely because they contain a slash. Known file slots and redirections retain completion; native shell Tab remains available when no Hokan menu is open.
• Completion tasks, AI results, pending Tab actions, and confirmations belong to one prompt. Late results cannot act on a later prompt, and foreground programs receive their own input.
• Track split and late terminal color replies across program exit, with a two-second grace period, while preserving replies for active programs.
• Offer explicit spelling and parent-path repairs. Accepting a repair only fills the command; it never creates directories or executes the correction.
• Probe command help with the interactive shell PATH and invalidate cached help when PATH or the executable changes.
• Handle duplicate shell notifications without disrupting history, and keep recoverable protocol diagnostics in opt-in logs.
• Refresh dependencies within the Rust 1.96 compatibility boundary.

Existing beta users can move to stable with:

Shell
hokan upgrade --channel stable --yes

Restart Hokan after updating. Future updates follow the installed binary's stable channel. Configuration and history are retained. Certification remains limited to the tested environments.

The GitHub release contains macOS and Linux archives for x86_64 and aarch64, SPDX SBOMs, SHA-256 checksums, and the pinned-key Ed25519 checksum signature.

v0.1.0-beta.10

This beta fixes recommendation and terminal interaction races, and repairs self-updates against the actual release archives.

• Keep dismissed suggestions closed until input changes or the list is reopened.
• Preserve meaningful quoted, escaped, multiline, and Unicode whitespace in history and completion filtering.
• Reuse substring-search state and avoid UTF-8 decoding for ASCII fuzzy queries when scanning large histories, while preserving Unicode matching.
• Require confirmation when a known high-risk operation appears alongside syntax whose risk cannot be determined.
• Reject stale cursor reports and restore terminal input modes correctly when a command is queued before the initial prompt.
• Finish outstanding cursor queries before restoring terminal modes on exit, with a bounded wait for terminals that do not respond.
• Make release archives readable by both existing updaters and the installer.
• Stage updates beside the executable, serialize concurrent installs, preserve the original backup, and verify the exact reported program version.
• Default new beta installations to the beta update channel, preserve explicit channel settings, respect automatic-update opt-outs, and throttle failed background retries as well as successful checks.
• Publish releases only after all archives, checksums, and SBOMs are uploaded.
• Fix flaky terminal fixtures and update the withdrawn chacha20 dependency.

Existing beta users whose configuration explicitly tracks stable can switch once:

Shell
hokan upgrade --channel beta --yes

Automatic updates run silently when a Hokan session starts, at most once per configured interval (30 minutes by default). The next launch uses the updated binary. Set [update].enabled = false or HOKAN_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 to disable them.

If an older updater cannot replace an installation whose cache is on a different disk, rerun the beta installer documented in the README to obtain this fix.
