What's New

Added global symlink for IDEs and improved HTTP request reliability.

New Features

  • Added `global` symlink to tool install directories for IDE compatibility.
  • Added `outputs = { auto = false }` support to task JSON schema.
  • Added new Aqua packages: `runxhq/runx` and `takumin/passt-bin`.

Improvements

  • HTTP requests now automatically retry if the response body is dropped mid-transfer.
  • Dotfiles history rebuilds are optimized by skipping unchanged files.
  • Updated JSON schema to accept `outputs = { auto = false }` on tasks.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed lockfile checks for release tags containing `@` (e.g., `cli@0.46.0`).
  • Fixed errors decoding responses when transfer drops mid-transfer.

Upgrade Notes

A new `global` symlink will be created in each tool's install directory pointing to the globally selected version. IDEs can use this path for consistent tool resolution. If no global config selects a tool, the symlink will be removed.
