Free desktop build of Alethe for Windows, macOS and Linux. The local app is free; cloud/sync services may be offered separately.
Download the installer for your platform from the Assets below.
✨ Highlights
- Full-profile backup export. Exporting an account now archives the entire profile — Todos, history, activity metrics, preferences, tokens, scrollback and anything else — instead of a fixed short list, so nothing you own is lost when backing up or migrating.
- "Erase all data (fresh install)". A new menu action wipes every profile, account, project, scrollback, setting and log, so the app restarts exactly like a brand-new install (pair it with an export first).
- Reworked startup loading screen that shares the Home view's background and ASCII-art treatment for a consistent look.
- New default profile picture using the current dark app icon.
🐛 Stability fixes
- Fixed switching accounts hanging with "Could not safely switch accounts: PTY reader flush barrier timed out" — each parked terminal's pseudoconsole is now closed before waiting for its final scrollback flush.
- Fixed creating a new account getting stuck on a long, broken loading state — the fresh profile reaches onboarding cleanly and parking the previous profile's terminals no longer blocks the switch.
- Fixed onboarding freezing on "Detecting installed CLIs…" — CLI detection is now time-boxed per agent, so a slow or unreachable PATH entry can't stall the flow.
- Prevented concurrent terminals from resuming the same Codex conversation (active-writer crash on restore), and made Codex active-writer recovery robust to bootstrap errors split across multiple PTY chunks.
🤖 Agent Sandbox
- Archived the experimental Agent Sandbox project mode behind a build flag while it stabilizes — its entry points are hidden so no new sandbox projects can be created.
- Under the hood: persistent Codex app-server conversations, stable job/thread identifiers, parent-to-worker hierarchy visualization, real planner↔worker delegation, and session persistence across workspace tab changes.
📱 LAN remote control
- Open an authenticated mobile web view from the menu to browse agent chats, watch terminal output live and send one message at a time — with a configurable authenticated-device limit, per-device sessions with expiry and revocation, and hardened WebSocket auth and headers.
🎨 UI & polish
- Standardized all project dropdowns on a compact, viewport-safe, portal-based control with truncation and keyboard handling.
- Independent native desktop icon theme preference (defaults to Dark; supports all themes plus the Blue/Pink Gradient variants).
- Consistent top-bar spacing, height and radius across both layouts; dev-only tools tucked into the menu.
- Set the Windows NSIS installer icon explicitly and refreshed desktop/installer branding to the Dark Alethe icon.
