Hmbown/CodeWhale v0.8.55

v0.8.55 — Together AI, OpenAI Codex, Model Catalog

on GitHub

CodeWhale is the canonical project, command, npm package, and
release-asset name. The legacy npm package deepseek-tui is
deprecated and receives no further releases. Users coming from
v0.8.x legacy deepseek / deepseek-tui names should migrate
with docs/REBRAND.md.

Install

Recommended — npm (one command, both binaries)

npm install -g codewhale

The wrapper downloads both binaries from this Release and places them in the same directory.

Docker / GHCR

docker run --rm -it \
  -e DEEPSEEK_API_KEY="$DEEPSEEK_API_KEY" \
  -v ~/.deepseek:/home/codewhale/.deepseek \
  ghcr.io/hmbown/codewhale:v0.8.55

The image ships the codewhale dispatcher and codewhale-tui runtime. The latest tag is also updated on release.

Cargo (Linux / macOS)

cargo install codewhale-cli codewhale-tui --locked

Both crates are required — codewhale-cli produces the codewhale dispatcher and codewhale-tui produces the interactive runtime that the dispatcher delegates to. Installing only one binary will fail at runtime with a MISSING_COMPANION_BINARY error.

Manual download — platform archives (recommended)

Each archive below contains both the codewhale dispatcher and codewhale-tui runtime, plus an install script:

Unix (Linux / macOS):

tar xzf codewhale-<platform>.tar.gz
cd codewhale-<platform>
./install.sh

Windows:

• For the installer path, run CodeWhaleSetup.exe; it installs both binaries under %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\CodeWhale\bin and adds that directory to the current-user PATH.
• Extract codewhale-windows-x64.zip
• Run install.bat (copies to %USERPROFILE%\bin)
• Add %USERPROFILE%\bin to your PATH

The portable Windows archive skips the install script — extract and run from any directory. The NSIS installer is currently unsigned and may trigger Windows SmartScreen until a signing certificate is wired into the release pipeline.

Individual binaries are also attached below for scripting and the npm wrapper. The legacy npm package deepseek-tui is deprecated and is not republished. For migration from v0.8.x legacy binary names, see docs/REBRAND.md.

Verify (recommended)

Download the checksum manifests from this Release and verify:

# Linux — archive bundles
sha256sum -c codewhale-bundles-sha256.txt

# Linux — individual binaries
sha256sum -c codewhale-artifacts-sha256.txt

# macOS
shasum -a 256 -c codewhale-bundles-sha256.txt
shasum -a 256 -c codewhale-artifacts-sha256.txt
