What's Changed

Added

  • Waypipe Support — Wayland application forwarding for SSH connections via waypipe; auto-detected on Wayland sessions when waypipe binary is available on PATH; per-connection toggle in SSH Session options; graceful fallback to direct SSH when unavailable (#36)
  • IronRDP Clipboard Integration — Bidirectional clipboard sync between local desktop and remote RDP session via cliprdr channel; server→client text is auto-synced to local GTK clipboard; local clipboard changes are automatically announced to the server; Copy/Paste buttons remain as manual fallback; feedback loop prevention via suppression flag

Fixed

  • Missing icons on KDE and non-GNOME desktops — Replaced all non-standard icon names (emblem-ok-symbolic, emblem-system-symbolic, call-start-symbolic, modem-symbolic, application-x-executable-symbolic, etc.) with freedesktop-standard equivalents; replaced icons missing from Adwaita (emblem-default-symbolic, emblem-synchronizing-symbolic, utilities-system-monitor-symbolic, view-sidebar-start-symbolic, tag-symbolic) with available alternatives; forced Adwaita icon theme via GtkSettings for consistent icon availability on all desktops; unified protocol icons via single source of truth in icons.rs, eliminating hardcoded duplicates across sidebar, tabs, dialogs, templates, and cluster views (#35)
  • Serial connection creation failed — Serial and Kubernetes connections no longer require host/port validation (they use device path / pod name instead); previously "Host cannot be empty" error blocked saving these connections
  • Serial/Kubernetes missing client toast — Shows user-friendly toast when picocom (Serial) or kubectl (Kubernetes) is not installed, and when Kubernetes pod/container configuration is incomplete; fixed toast overlay discovery that failed on adw::ApplicationWindow internal widget hierarchy
  • libsecret password storage panic — Fixed debug_assert crash in libsecret backend that rejected non-UUID lookup keys (e.g. "test (vnc)"); libsecret uses name (protocol) format, not UUIDs
  • libsecret password retrieval — Fixed is_available() check that always returned false because secret-tool --version is not a valid subcommand (exits with code 2); the store path bypassed this check but the retrieve path went through SecretManager which skipped the backend, causing saved passwords to never be found on connection
  • VNC/RDP identical icons — VNC now uses video-joined-displays-symbolic (two monitors) instead of video-display-symbolic which was identical to RDP's computer-symbolic in Adwaita
  • SFTP via mc opens root instead of home — mc FISH VFS URI now includes /~ suffix to open the remote user's home directory; mc is launched via sh -c wrapper for correct terminal sizing
  • SSH agent not inherited by VTE terminalsspawn_command now injects SSH_AUTH_SOCK/SSH_AGENT_PID from the global OnceLock<SshAgentInfo> into VTE-spawned processes; previously mc, ssh, and other terminal commands could not reach the SSH agent when RustConn started its own agent (Rust 2024 edition forbids set_var)

Improved

  • Client Detection — Added waypipe to Settings → Clients detection tab
  • Documentation — Added Waypipe section to User Guide and Architecture docs
  • Translations — Added waypipe-related strings to all 18 languages
