Major 0.16.x Additions
🪄 Maestro Cue is a new trigger-based cross-agent orchestration capability. Heartbeats, GitHub issues/PRs, file system monitors, and other data sources can bring your agents to life and pass work between one another.
💻 Major Shell Upgrade — Full-featured xterm.js terminal tabs alongside your existing AI and file preview tabs. Open multiple terminals and rename them freely.
🧑✈️ GitHub Copilot-CLI — Copilot-CLI joins Maestro as a first-class agent with end-to-end integration for both local and remote (over SSH).
🌐 Web UX Parity — The web/mobile interface now supports real PTY terminals, swipeable panels, notification dropdowns, and dozens of desktop-equivalent features. Full touch-friendly experience on tablets and phones.
🔗 SSH Shared History — History synchronization across multiple Maestro instances working on the same project via SSH. Each host writes per-hostname JSONL files to .maestro/history/ on the remote, so all participants see each other's work.
🌍 Browser Tabs — Open web pages directly inside Maestro as first-class tabs alongside AI, terminal, and file preview tabs. Full address bar, navigation controls, session persistence across restarts, and bulk close support. Great for referencing docs, dashboards, or web UIs without leaving the workspace.
