AI Summary

This is a small bug fix release for Crush that addresses an OAuth token expiration issue with Claude Code Max integration. Previously, tokens (which last 8 hours) were only refreshed at boot, causing them to expire if Crush was kept open for extended periods. The fix implements automatic background token refresh without requiring a restart.

Key Highlights

  • Fixed OAuth token expiration issue for Claude Code Max integration
  • Tokens now refresh automatically in the background
  • No restart required for token refresh
  • Resolved issue where tokens expired after 8 hours of keeping Crush open

New Features

  • Automatic background refresh of OAuth tokens for Claude Code Max

Full Release Notes

# A small fix for Claude Code Max

Claude Code Max tokens last 8 hours. Crush refreshed that at boot only, but if you kept Crush open for that long, it would eventually expire. We'll now refresh tokens automatically without a restart.

<summary>Verifying the artifacts</summary>

First, download the [`checksums.txt` file](https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.19.3/checksums.txt), for example, with `wget`:

```bash
wget 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.19.3/checksums.txt'
```

Then, verify it using [`cosign`](https://github.com/sigstore/cosign):

```bash
cosign verify-blob \
  --certificate-identity 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/meta/.github/workflows/goreleaser.yml@refs/heads/main' \
  --certificate-oidc-issuer 'https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com' \
  --cert 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.19.3/checksums.txt.pem' \
  --signature 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.19.3/checksums.txt.sig' \
  ./checksums.txt
```

If the output is `Verified OK`, you can safely use it to verify the checksums of other artifacts you downloaded from the release using `sha256sum`:

```bash
sha256sum --ignore-missing -c checksums.txt
```

Done! You artifacts are now verified!
