OxideTerm Native GPUI Preview

Final Preview notice: This is the last GPUI Preview release. The supported upgrade path to the stable OxideTerm 2.0 release starts from an installed OxideTerm 1.x client. Preview builds will not be upgraded in place to stable 2.0. Keep or install the current 1.x client and use its upgrade flow when OxideTerm 2.0 is released.

2.0.0-gpui-preview.17

This is the final GPUI Preview before the stable OxideTerm 2.0 release.

Upgrade requirement: The supported upgrade path to stable OxideTerm 2.0 starts from an installed OxideTerm 1.x client. Preview builds do not update in place to stable 2.0. Keep or install OxideTerm 1.x and use its upgrade flow when the stable release is available.

• Added a guided 1.x-to-2.0 migration tour covering the native GPUI architecture, CLI migration from oxt to oxideterm, visual and animation changes, workflow additions, and internal reliability improvements.
• Reworked the SFTP path with bounded owned transport queues, improved short-read handling, directory scheduling, shared rate limiting, progress persistence, transfer diagnostics, and lower-copy SSH channel delivery.
• Improved the native update experience with application-level update prompts, download progress, on-demand release notes, and stricter separation between Preview and Stable update channels.
• Refined session management, the macOS application launcher, notification center, file manager, settings, Host Tools, cloud sync, and connection workflows for clearer hierarchy and more consistent native layout behavior.
• Added explicit OSC 52 clipboard-read permission while keeping remote clipboard reads disabled by default.
• Tightened SSH shell bootstrap, host probing, reconnection, keychain access, secret handling, single-instance release lanes, and cross-platform packaging behavior.
• Unified workspace top-chrome transparency and divider rendering across the activity rail, session sidebar, main tab bar, OxideSens, and Host Tools.

What To Test

• SSH connection creation, saved connections, reconnect, known-host prompts, and jump/proxy routes.
• Telnet and serial connection creation, saved profiles, and session manager editing.
• Terminal tabs, split panes, command bar, quick commands, broadcast input, recording, and local shell behavior.
• SFTP browsing, transfers, previews, and remote file workflows.
• Local, remote, and dynamic port forwarding.
• Cloud sync setup, scope selection, upload/pull preview, conflict handling, rollback backups, and provider-specific OAuth flows.
• OxideSens AI sidebar, model/provider setup, context capture, tool calls, approval behavior, and credential redaction.
• Settings, i18n, theme rendering, keyboard shortcuts, and visual parity with the Tauri version.

Known Preview Caveats

• Some workflows may be incomplete or rough around edge cases.
• macOS builds are not notarized unless explicitly stated in a later release.
• Windows SmartScreen and macOS Gatekeeper may warn because this is an unsigned/early preview build.
• If a workflow is business-critical, keep the stable Tauri release installed as your fallback.
