Reviewing pull requests no longer means jumping to your browser. This release brings a full GitHub Tasks panel right into Braid: browse PRs and issues across all your repos, read the conversation, scan the checks, page through changed files with inline diffs, and approve or request changes without ever leaving the app.

Braid Mobile gets friendlier this release. Leave the app in your pocket for a while and it now wakes up and reconnects on its own, no more staring at a frozen screen. You'll also get a nudge when your agent needs you even if the app is closed, plus a plain terminal tab for when you just want a quick shell.

This release rounds out the mobile companion. Braid Mobile now feels at home on iPad, the home screen got a cleaner redesign, and a round of hardening across pairing, transport, and terminal sizing makes the desktop connection steadier. We also fixed a packaging issue so desktop builds stay lean.

Braid now has a mobile companion. Pair your phone to your desktop over your local network and keep an eye on your agent sessions from anywhere in the house - watch live terminals, check PR status, and manage worktrees without sitting at your desk. Pairing is end-to-end encrypted and discovery happens entirely on your LAN, so nothing about your sessions leaves your network.

Start a worktree from a Jira ticket and Braid now hands your agent the full story - description, acceptance criteria, comments, and linked issues - as an editable draft, so it picks up exactly where the ticket left off. You can also preview HTML files right in the editor, and we've laid the first runtime groundwork for Linux. Under the hood, a new resource-level refresh system keeps your files, PR status, and checks fresher with less redundant fetching.

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.
