This one's packed. You can now reply to PR review comments without ever leaving Braid, filter and sort your sidebar project list in ways that actually make sense for multi-worktree workflows, and see your Claude/Codex usage at a glance with a new persistent status bar. We also gave the onboarding flow a proper redesign, polished up the search panel, and squashed a long-standing terminal resize bug.

A maintenance release focusing on terminal readability and agent compatibility. Light theme users will notice better contrast in terminal output, and Codex sessions now correctly surface input notifications.

We're introducing the foundation for our upcoming mobile companion app! This release includes a new companion server with end-to-end encrypted (E2EE) pairing so you can securely control your terminal from your phone. Additionally, we've refined our webview permissions so embedded apps work seamlessly without annoying dialogs.

Thanks to Sujal for flagging the DRM playback issue that kicked off the v26.2.2 permission fixes!

This release improves our Widevine CDM support by fixing an issue where DRM-protected content would fail to play if it requested unknown permissions. Braid will now correctly prompt the user for unknown permissions instead of silently failing.

Braid now installs status hooks for nine different CLI agents out of the box, so tools like Gemini, Codex, Copilot, Cursor, and Grok light up with live status dots and Mission Control cards the moment you launch them in a terminal. This release also fixes drag-and-drop on recent Electron versions, ensures all open terminals re-theme instantly when you switch themes, and enables Widevine playback in embedded app webviews.

Feature release adding auto-detect and launch for CLI coding agents in the terminal, brand SVGs, native file drops, clipboard image paste, and numerous terminal improvements including per-theme ANSI colors and PTY daemon for session persistence.

Added xterm addons, search, auto-run commands, and layout fixes, along with other minor fixes.

You can now drag and drop entire folders as file mentions, and GitHub API requests use an auth token for higher rate limits. Also fixed a bug where clicking a search result row would get stuck at the top of the editor.

Maintenance release with no notable app changes.

You can now review PRs without leaving Braid. The new code review panel shows reviews grouped by file with syntax-highlighted diff hunks, comment threading, and resolved/unresolved filtering. A reviews summary also appears in the Checks tab so you can see review status at a glance.

Full-text search is here too. Hit the search tab in the right panel and ripgrep powers instant results across your entire worktree, with case-sensitive/regex toggles and file-type filtering.
