0.16.0-beta.1 - 2026-11-10

  • Background tasks: Paseo now shows the background tasks an agent is running, such as shells and monitors, above the composer, with a Stop button for each. Works with Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode v2. (#6220, #9162 by @fxlelouarn)
  • Faster diff loading: Opening Changes shows the file tree right away while file contents load. Large diffs arrive in batches, so the rest of the app keeps responding while they load, and diffs take priority over the daemon's background worktree scans. (#8907, #9241, #9243)
  • Fewer reconnects on return: Returning to the app keeps a working connection, including one in the middle of a large response, and reconnects once when it has to. On a host with several saved connections, Paseo stays on the one that works. (#8651, #9086, #8855, #9116)
  • Keyboard shortcuts on mobile: With a keyboard connected, iPad and Android now run the same shortcuts as desktop, including your custom bindings. Shortcut hints and Settings → Shortcuts appear when a keyboard is detected. Shortcuts also work in narrow desktop and browser windows. (#8625 by @jeroenfrenken, @lstroud)
  • Touch-sized tablet controls: On iPad and other touch-screen devices, the wide layout now has touch-sized buttons, rows and bars. The composer toolbar folds its controls into the model menu when space runs out, and swiping right on the workspace reveals a collapsed sidebar as an overlay. (#8748, #8885, #8891, #8909, #9151, #9238, #8739 by @zeyugao)
  • Plugin sidebar views: A plugin can replace the sidebar's content with its own layout of workspaces, agents, projects and terminals across every connected host. Pick the view per device under Settings → Sidebar; Paseo's sidebar header and footer stay in place. (#8906)
  • Plugin composer controls: Plugins can add their own controls to the composer, and read and set its prompt, attachments, provider, model, mode and thinking. They can also put the cursor in any agent's composer, add items to New workspace, and store their own metadata on agents and workspaces. (#8744, #9209, #9207)
  • Polish: The chat stays still when a turn ends, and returning to a chat that has not changed shows it as it is with no refresh. Tool rows show their final title and icon from the first frame, the context window popover opens with usage already loaded, and sidebar hover cards open one at a time. (#8944, #9175, #9242, #9248, #9212, #9071)
  • Rebuilt mobile chat timeline: The chat timeline on iOS and Android was rebuilt. Expanding or collapsing a turn summary, todo card or tool-call group keeps the line you tapped in place, and on Android so do Show more, Show less and plan cards. (#8717, #9085)
  • Undo workspace archive: Archiving a workspace in the app now shows a "Workspace archived" toast for six seconds. Undo, or Cmd/Ctrl+Z, restores the workspace with its tabs and agents. On desktop, sidebar workspace rows also get an archive button on hover. (#8904, #9104)
All changes

Added

  • Added a Change base picker in Changes for worktree workspaces, so diffs, the commit list and Git actions can use another branch (#8642, #8934 by @Myasuka)

  • Added fx as a provider you can add from the provider catalog in Settings → Hosts → Providers (#9160)
  • Added background agents: an agent or plugin can create a helper with background: true that opens no tab, sends no notification and stays out of the sidebar and default agent lists (#8683)
  • Added syntax highlighting for Terraform and HCL files (.tf, .tfvars, .hcl) (#9106)
