What's New

Release notes span different product lines; newer adds codewhale rebrand, vision route, and portable config.

Breaking Changes

  • Legacy npm package `deepseek-tui` and the `deepseek`/`deepseek-tui` command names are deprecated in favor of `codewhale`/`codew`, requiring migration per docs/REBRAND.md.
  • The placeholder engine tree is replaced by a single authoritative model-turn loop, which may alter internal extension or integration points.
  • Container users must mount config at /home/codewhale/.codewhale rather than the previous home path.

New Features

  • Experimental `deepseek-v4-flash-vision-exp` route that accepts image input.
  • Portable config export/import with backup and rollback support.
  • Codewhale-versus-Pi parity harness for side-by-side evaluation.
  • Redesigned terminal status rows showing provider, model, and thinking level.
  • Bounded multi-file diagnostics for scoped analysis runs.

Improvements

  • Consolidated model-turn loop replaces the previous placeholder engine tree.
  • Expanded distribution: npm wrapper, Docker/GHCR image, Cargo, Homebrew, archives, and shell installer.
  • Both `codewhale` and `codew` entrypoints now ship in a single install across most channels.
  • Docker `latest` tag is refreshed on each release for easier pinning workflows.

Upgrade Notes

The two release notes describe unrelated codebases (an Astryx design-system release versus a Codewhale CLI release), so confirm you are actually on the same product lineage before upgrading. If you are on the Codewhale line, follow docs/REBRAND.md to move off the deprecated `deepseek`/`deepseek-tui` names, reinstall via `npm install -g codewhale`, and update container volume mounts to /home/codewhale/.codewhale. Treat the vision route as experimental and keep a config backup before importing.
