Full Release Notes
# More Bang Mode™ improvements [This morning we released the new Bang Mode](https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/tag/v0.78.0). For this release, we did a couple small fixes and enhancements to it: * We tweaked the font colors to make it more legible; * A long-running command will now show immediately and stream output as the command runs; * Session name generation is fixed for sessions started with a command. ## Agent bug fixes We made a few bug fixes to [Fantasy](https://github.com/charmbracelet/fantasy) to make Crush behave better with certains providers and models. * The `tool not found` error now print the list of available tool. This is targeting certain models like Kimi that sometimes can get lost and call tools that doesn't exist; * Fixes potential tool call errors with the GLM family via Fireworks; * Fixed some GPT models via Azure (thanks @dustinlagoy); * Fixes Gemini via VertexAI (thanks @eswar-7116); * Fixed tool calls sometimes not working properly for local models. Have a great weekend and keep crushing! :rocket: The Charm Team ## Changelog ### New! * 1c2da8930cdf77c0cff1ba8014028b4ec31f5f82: feat(bang): remap ansi 16 colors (@taciturnaxolotl) * 6db54b3a969389d97a414fb20f3d527a237d7565: feat(bang): show pending spinner (@taciturnaxolotl) * 6814ccfca6715ac018ac1ff7046146a913b24824: feat(bang): stream results in (@taciturnaxolotl) * 5f07034e42387e2b47b2cd81c8802df8d90b992c: feat(bangmode): adjust command output color (@taciturnaxolotl) * ee47eb808cfeedafac0aba2d2acc2be9f2c9a73e: feat(bangmode): allow prefixing a string with bangmode (@taciturnaxolotl) * 47ed0f3a2fc96feed9a127ea83960fe5a681e30a: feat(bangmode): cancel command execution (@taciturnaxolotl) * f46387bb525c8bf27fed2a7e8adf28aceff2ab68: feat(bangmode): copy message result (@taciturnaxolotl) * 175ce34cc8d1325f6727ab896df22c8babcaca3b: feat(bangmode): properly strip ansi in copy and context (@taciturnaxolotl) * a06fd0348a10152468600761f57d46a74f17f689: feat(schema): fix the reflection on provider options (@taciturnaxolotl) ### Fixed * 03bfdc66fb2633b799170d95c984625d03f9db8d: fix(bang): set title in bang mode (@taciturnaxolotl) * 8305eb033961aa0eabf11c25340e2fc39945813c: fix(bangmode): fix duplicate command message race condition (@taciturnaxolotl) * 48e9cca2ffe2ab012ee305bcb20b64601f3945ee: fix(bangmode): interleave stderr and stdout (@taciturnaxolotl) * cf0d7c2f5e9f2b1acdb4fd387361021119298705: fix(bangmode): move ansi remaping into common and cleanup bangmode (@taciturnaxolotl) ### Other stuff * ce2dc1ee7e799924f6534ce119994951834d4db5: chore(bangmode): adjust ANSI16 colors (@meowgorithm) * 2f89862dccf03213c6e049735064a0feb25d7534: chore(bangmode): adjust working indicator text color (@meowgorithm) * f82a46860d608c453b941fb88a74952d6d0788c8: chore: auto-update files (@charmcli) --- <details> <summary>Verifying the artifacts</summary> First, download the [`checksums.txt` file](https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.79.0/checksums.txt) and the [`checksums.txt.sigstore.json` file](https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.79.0/checksums.txt.sigstore.json) files, for example, with `wget`: ```bash wget 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.79.0/checksums.txt' wget 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.79.0/checksums.txt.sigstore.json' ``` 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' \ --bundle 'checksums.txt.sigstore.json' \ ./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! </details> <a href="https://charm.land/"><img alt="The Charm logo" src="https://stuff.charm.sh/charm-banner-next.jpg" width="400"></a> Thoughts? Questions?
