Some small, nice enhancements

This is a small release, but with some small fixed and QoL enhancements.

More reliable skills

We made changes, inclusing in the system prompt, to ensure the model will load a skill when it should.

Fixes for light theme

If you use your terminal emulator with a light theme, it was possible that some markdown content appeared to be invisible. This happened due to a dark text on dark background issue, but it's now fixed!

iTerm2 progress bar: it’s back

iTerm2 users will now see a progress bar when the agent is working, just like it already worked for Ghostty and Rio.

Remember that you want you can disable this with this setting on your crush.json

{
  "options": {
    "progress": false
  }
}

Clipboard fix for Apple Terminal

Copying a code when authenticating with an OAuth provider is now fixed for some terminals, like the Apple Terminal on macOS.

Verifying the artifacts

First, download the checksums.txt file and the checksums.txt.sigstore.json file files, for example, with wget:

wget 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.61.1/checksums.txt'
wget 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.61.1/checksums.txt.sigstore.json'

Then, verify it using cosign:

cosign verify-blob \
  --certificate-identity 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/meta/.github/workflows/goreleaser.yml@refs/heads/main' \
  --certificate-oidc-issuer 'https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com' \
  --bundle 'checksums.txt.sigstore.json' \
  ./checksums.txt

If the output is Verified OK, you can safely use it to verify the checksums of other artifacts you downloaded from the release using sha256sum:

sha256sum --ignore-missing -c checksums.txt

Done! You artifacts are now verified!
