droppyformac1/droppy-code v1.3.0

on GitLab

New features

• Pi joins the providers, with supervised, auto-accept and full-access approval levels.
  
• Slash commands in the composer: type / to lead a message with a command.
  
• Reply quotes: quote part of a reply to answer it in place.
  
• Hydra pair recipes and the cookbook page in Settings: ready-made lead-and-heads pairs with an effort for each side, and providers fall back to what is signed in.
  
• A Hydra intro popover the first time Hydra is switched on.
  
• The Hydra merge and report popovers: merge request notes with their files and status, and report digests with each head's outcome and landed files.
  
• Follow-ups sent while a turn runs are bundled into one message.
  
• Finished heads pop into panels on their own.
  
• The last Hydra pair is remembered and applied to new chats.
  
• A Discord invite button.
  
• Z.ai joins the providers, with the GLM Coding Plan, GLM models and plan limits in the usage popover.
  
• Banked resets for Codex: the usage popover and Settings, Providers show the resets a Codex account has banked; spend one, after a confirm step, to clear its active windows, and the bars spring back down.
  
• Command-W asks to archive the thread, Command-S settles it.
  
• Questions with several to answer come one per page, with navigation between them.
  

Bug fixes

• A running chat no longer shows nothing until it is reopened: the timeline could take content growing under it for a scroll still coasting and stop following, and a Hydra note landing mid-turn split the turn into two blocks under one name, leaving the running tail undrawn.
  
• A thread reopened at its top: when its first rows fit the pane, the history landing above left the view on the oldest rows; it is put back on the end.
  
• A thread stopped mid-turn (settled, archived, its pair switched) closes its turn instead of showing the working line for good; deleting a running head tells its lead; Stop no longer waits on git for its diffs.
  
• Escape in Settings or a file picker no longer closes a chat popover underneath it.
  
• Hydra on every provider: heads run with full access in their own copy, so none waits on a permission prompt nobody can answer; Codex heads are recognised however the app-server announces them; a Claude head's stream survives the lead's turn ending; a block anywhere in a reply sends its heads, a block on a stopped turn says so, and a pair whose heads' provider is off says where the heads run instead; an Antigravity head starved of permissions reports a failure rather than a clean finish.
  
• The effort slider runs from low to high on Grok: its levels arrived from extra high down, and the knob sat at Low for the highest.
  
• The freeze after typing caused by the key view loop is gone, AppKit owns the loop now.
  
• The merging row's stage words no longer tear mid-transition.
  
• The working badge's time no longer jumps out of the badge when the steps open.
  
• Sidebar hover tracking and file card spacing are fixed.
  
• Nested links in Hydra report rows no longer steal the button's click.
  
• A link inside a merge note opens the merge request.
  
• Selectable text no longer overflows the row below it: it is framed to its measured height.
  
• Opening a work group, step or tool scrolls it into view, and copying a link confirms with a checkmark.
  
• Heads announced only through activity notes still join the team, and spawning notes read more clearly without the lead repeating each head's status.
  
• The merge pill no longer shows a stale elapsed time once the merge has landed.
  
• A thread keeps its model as the live catalogue changes: the built-in list holds the reference while the live list refines the details.
  
• An interrupted turn settles instead of hanging, and the Hydra chevron only shows where there is something to open.
  

Refinements

• Floating panels dock on both sides of the chat only when both fit beside it; dragging and edge-resizing a panel no longer re-lays out the chat every frame, and sidebar and terminal drags step and settle like a window resize.
  
• The merge popover shows the heads whose work went into the merge; hovering a head names its task and the files of its that landed.
  
• Head reports open in a plain popover with a pinned header and a compact body; a head's provider mark always shows in its panel; the team's rows sit on the agent's side of the chat; a head going out is announced with its own face rather than a spinner.
  
• The welcome tour has eight pages of new captures over the desktop, with the floating thread list and Hydra's cookbook among them.
  
• Chat zoom lives in Settings with a live preview.
  
• History loads asynchronously so switching chats is instant.
  
• The app launches straight into the chat.
  
• The model chip and thread rows use right-click popovers.
  
• While a turn runs, the working line is the head panel's progress card: the task breathing, the stave bar filling with the turn's steps, the time in its pill, and the chevron opening the steps; Settings › Conversation › Show activity while working turns it back into the plain line.
  
• The question popover opens on its badge at one size and stays put while you answer; it is plain and native now.
  
• The checklist card hugs its steps like the other badges.
  
• Hydra recipes name current models with flexible effort levels.
  
• The license is GNU AGPL v3 with attribution.
  
• Cursor's reasoning levels come through a parameterized model picker.
  
• A Debug build runs as Droppy Code Dev beside the release app, with its own library and settings.
  
• Chat switching stays instant on long threads: a turn is finished once, a thread is written once, and snapshots and change lists cost less per turn.
  
• Commands stop with their turn, provider sessions stop cleanly, and the composer and message editor render more cheaply.
  
• The changelog page on the site is redesigned, its picture tiles take a top-copy, bottom-picture layout, and the composer tour gains scenes for notifications, commands and quotes.
