Every release, as it shipped.

Evlat now listens only on a socket in ~/.config/evlat/run, a folder only you can enter, and no longer on port 48151, so hooks set up by earlier versions go silent until you update them. A window opens at launch listing them, this Mac's agents and your servers, with Update all; the menu's Review updates… opens it again. Leave Keep these up to date automatically checked and from then on Evlat updates what it wrote by itself, opening the window only when you need to act, such as Codex's /hooks. Open Claude Code sessions take the change with their next message. Your own scripts post to the socket now, with no key: curl --unix-socket ~/.config/evlat/run/evlat.sock http://127.0.0.1:48151/signal …. With several Macs on one server, update Evlat on every Mac first, then the server.

Claude Code and Codex on a server you added in Settings → Servers now ask the bar for permission — Allow once or Deny on the session's card — and Claude's questions are answered there too. While its card waits, Codex shows “Running hook”, two minutes at most.

Settings → Mascot → Look offers Pati the cat, Bit the robot — now with a lit screen, its eyes in the bar's colours — and Puf the ghost beside the cube, each showing waiting, working and done its own way. Your Codex pets appear there too, and so does any mascot you put in the mascots folder, a pet sheet or a character.json: How to Make One opens the guide, with a prompt for your coding agent, and evlat mascot check lists every rule a mascot breaks and draws its states. A finish no longer leaves the mascot's head tilted.

The setup opens in a panel beside the mascot, four steps with the main button in one place: connect your agents, see each one heard, choose where the bar sits and when it hides, and a few last touches, where Open Evlat when the Mac starts and the evlat command turn off as well as on. In Settings, This Mac, Servers and Docker sandboxes sit together under Connections.

With Bateri 0.4 or newer, a session's finish sound, peek and reminders stay quiet while you're at its tab, on this Mac or over ssh; the finish stays new until you look. Go to session now opens the tab of a session on a server you reach through Bateri's own ssh.

A spent usage window says 100%, not “101%”. Docker sandboxes are set up again where your user name is 15 characters or longer, and an sbx update notice no longer hides the sandbox list.

With Settings → General → Body set to Smart hide, the bar stays out while no window is under it and tucks into the edge when one is — drag a window to the edge and it steps aside, move the window away and it's back. It still peeks out when a session waits for you or finishes. No permission is asked: Evlat only looks at where windows are, never at what's in them.

If you liked the body always tucked in, with only the sliver on the edge, pick Tucked. If you were on Smart hide, you get the new behaviour after this update.

When a terminal app such as Bateri restarts and keeps its tabs open, Go to session still brings you to the session's tab instead of losing it.

When Claude asks you something on the bar, picking an option on the last question no longer sends your answers straight away: it marks your pick, and Send sends them. Questions before the last still move on with one press, and Back keeps everything you picked.

If you haven't picked one in Settings → Chat, a new chat runs on whichever of Claude Code and Codex is installed — with only Codex, it's Codex. With neither, the chat says so and links to where each one is installed. If you don't want the chat at all, turn off Enable chat at the top of Settings → Chat: the mascot then ignores clicks, the shortcut and dropped files, and a chat that was running stops.

Sessions of Claude Code running in a local Docker sandbox (sbx) now show on the bar under the sandbox's name: working, waiting for you, finished, with the same sounds and reminders. Turn on Settings → Sandboxes → Watch sandboxes (it's off until you do) and keep using sbx as usual: Evlat sets up each sandbox as it starts, and the ones already running at once. A session already running shows from its next message. Inside a sandbox Evlat writes one file of its own and allows one port; turning the switch off takes both out of the running sandboxes. Go to session opens the tab of the sbx run that started the session, when it can tell which. Sandboxes in Docker's cloud can't reach your Mac.

For a session in herdr, Go to session now selects its pane in more places: behind an ssh or sbx run started in a herdr pane, in herdr on a server you work on over ssh, and in a herdr --remote window. When Evlat can't select the pane, the button says so: "Open herdr in Bateri" instead of "Open in Bateri".

Names on the open bar get more room, and a waiting session says what it waits for in one word, approval or question, so the word is never cut; the card still says it in full. A remote machine is named by its own short name (gpu-01 for gpu-01.eu-central.internal, longer only when two machines would read alike). The line under the list counts the waiting sessions too, in amber, and a highlighted row no longer overlaps the one next to it.

Evlat now looks for a new version every hour, downloads it in the background and installs it when Evlat quits. If Evlat stays open, it asks once a day to restart and install. Turn it off in Settings → General → Install updates automatically. If you choose Remind Me Later, Evlat won't ask again for a day; the menu shows Update Available until then.

Session names get more room on the open bar, and a remote machine or a job's sender sits under the name, so neither cuts the other short. The card beside it is wider and laid out anew: who and where on top, then the status with its time, then what the session is doing or asking, and Open in Bateri (or your terminal) as its one button. Questions show every option's description, let you write your own answer right in the Other… row, and have Next to keep an answer you came back to. A tall card moves up so it always fits on the screen.

Settings → Agents shows Claude Code, Codex and Antigravity as cards. Each card installs everything that agent needs (its hooks and its usage line) with a single Install. A switch turns an agent off: its sessions and usage leave the bar, and Evlat offers to remove its parts from the agent's files. Setup asks which agents you use.

Each server shows one card per agent, installed and switched on or off for that server alone. Antigravity's hooks now really install on a server.

Settings → Chat picks the agent the chat bubble talks to, with that agent's own modes. Codex asks on a card before it runs a command, and the card can Always allow this command. Codex marks its chat protocol as experimental, so Settings warns when your Codex version differs from the one Evlat was tested with.

Settings → Usage.

A new Mascot tab in Settings chooses who speaks — Evlat's own tones, or a character voice from the OpenPeon community, installed with one click — and at which moments: done, error, waiting for approval, waiting for an answer. Every moment is off until you switch it on. Character voices build on @gabeperez's OpenPeon pack player — thank you (#8).

A session you started over ssh on a remote machine now has the Go to session button: it opens the terminal tab that ssh runs in on your Mac. When Evlat can't tell two tabs to the same server apart, it brings their app forward instead. Inside tmux or herdr on the server it opens the tab that is attached to the session now, not the one it was started from; with nothing attached there is no button.

German, Spanish, French, Brazilian Portuguese, Ukrainian, Russian, Japanese, Korean, and Simplified and Traditional Chinese. Evlat follows your Mac's language, or the one you pick in Settings → General → Language, which changes at once.

When sessions of the same repository share a name but sit on different branches, each row on the bar now shows its branch instead of a number. A session's card always shows its branch. Settings → Sessions → Git branch turns this off, or on for every session. Sessions on remote machines show no branch. Thanks to Shinyoo Kim, who asked for it on Product Hunt.

A remote machine no longer needs an ssh key: when the server asks for a password, Evlat shows the question in a small window, and Remember in Keychain (on by default) lets it reconnect on its own after sleep or a dropped network. A one-time code or a key's passphrase is asked every time and never kept. A password the server refuses is tried once, not again: the machine waits for you, and the menu says so — Enter Password… in Settings → Remote Machines. Removing a machine removes its saved password.

It opens the terminal tab you last used, never one that has since closed, and in herdr it also switches to the session's pane, in any workspace. Thanks to @gabeperez (#5).

A Gemini group joins Claude and Codex in the usage block, with its 5-hour and weekly windows. Turn it on in Settings → Sessions → Usage (Antigravity usage line), shown when the agy CLI is installed; the CLI keeps drawing its own status line. The numbers carry a ~: they come from a format Antigravity does not document. Thanks to @gabeperez (#6).

Settings → Sessions → Usage → Hide usage not seen for an hour (off by default) takes a tool's group off the bar until it reports again, instead of keeping it dimmed until its window resets. Thanks to @gabeperez (#7).

When Claude Code asks you a question, the session's card now shows the question and its options, instead of an Allow button that answered nothing. Click an option to answer; tick several when the question allows it; Other… opens a line to type your own answer. Several questions asked at once are answered one after another, with a way back to change an earlier answer, and sent together.
