AI Summary

This release focuses on session resumption and crash recovery, allowing browsers to resume exactly where they left off with their tabs and URLs. It introduces a 'wake' mechanism that provides visual feedback during engine startup and improves the reliability of browser rebuilding after failures.

Key Highlights

  • Session Resumption: Browsers now open where they were left off, restoring their tabs and URLs.
  • Wake Functionality: Clicking a 'not up' pane wakes the browser with a stopwatch for visual feedback.
  • Crash Recovery: Browsers dying mid-command are automatically rebuilt on the same pages.

New Features

  • Persistence of browser tab URLs in session state.
  • Automatic rebuilding of browsers on the same pages after a crash.
  • Stopwatch indicator during engine startup.

Full Release Notes

A browser you left open comes back where it was.

A reopened session already gave you back who its browsers were. Now it gives you back their pages too: the urls are saved beside the identity, and the first command aimed at a declared browser starts it and reopens the tabs it had. Click a pane that says "not up" and it wakes, with a stopwatch on it - starting an engine takes seven to fourteen seconds and an interface that goes quiet for that long is telling you nothing.

It happens once. After the wake, the tabs are the browser's own business.

A browser that dies mid-command is rebuilt the same way now: the same person, back on the same pages. Before this it came back correct and empty, and the only way to notice was to go looking for your own work.
