0.17.7 Highlights

🎬 The media player's close and minimize buttons work again, wherever it ends up. A player that drifted to the very top of the window slid under the title bar, which swallowed every click on it, so you could not close it, minimize it, or drag it away. It now always stays below the title bar, when it opens, while you drag it, and when the window is resized, and a player stuck up there from before comes back down on its own.

🧾 maestro-cli output is clean JSON again. Diagnostic log lines were printed ahead of the result, so any script piping --json into a parser broke on the first line. They now go to stderr where they belong, and the CLI stops kicking off a second WakaTime download while the first check is still looking for it.

🪝 Claude's answer survives a Stop hook. When a Stop hook told Claude to keep working, only what it wrote afterwards reached the chat, and the reply to your actual question vanished. You now get both, with the held-back answer first.

🐛 Send Feedback signs you in instead of turning you away. The feedback chat now runs as one of the accounts your own agents already use, so a per-agent login no longer fails with "not logged in". If GitHub needs you, Log in to GitHub runs right inside the dialog, and before you write a word it confirms your account can actually file on the Maestro repo and names the account it will file as.

🌳 The Files pane tree reads like a tree. Files and folders at the same depth now share one icon column, so a deep project no longer looks like a staircase. Prefer classic tree lines? Turn on branch connectors under Settings > Display.
