CodeWhale is the canonical project, command, npm package, and
release-asset name. The legacy npm package deepseek-tui is
deprecated and receives no further releases. Users coming from
v0.8.x legacy deepseek / deepseek-tui names should migrate
with docs/REBRAND.md.

Install

Recommended — npm (one command, both binaries)

npm install -g codewhale

The wrapper downloads both binaries from this Release and places them in the same directory.

Docker / GHCR

docker run --rm -it \
  -e DEEPSEEK_API_KEY="$DEEPSEEK_API_KEY" \
  -v ~/.deepseek:/home/codewhale/.deepseek \
  ghcr.io/hmbown/codewhale:v0.8.60

The image ships the codewhale dispatcher and codewhale-tui runtime. The latest tag is also updated on release.

Cargo (Linux / macOS)

cargo install codewhale-cli codewhale-tui --locked

Both crates are required — codewhale-cli produces the codewhale dispatcher and codewhale-tui produces the interactive runtime that the dispatcher delegates to. Installing only one binary will fail at runtime with a MISSING_COMPANION_BINARY error.

Manual download — platform archives (recommended)

Each archive below contains both the codewhale dispatcher and codewhale-tui runtime, plus an install script:

Platform Archive Install script
Linux x64 codewhale-linux-x64.tar.gz install.sh
Linux ARM64 codewhale-linux-arm64.tar.gz install.sh
Linux RISC-V codewhale-linux-riscv64.tar.gz install.sh
macOS x64 codewhale-macos-x64.tar.gz install.sh
macOS ARM codewhale-macos-arm64.tar.gz install.sh
Windows x64 (installer) CodeWhaleSetup.exe NSIS setup
Windows x64 codewhale-windows-x64.zip install.bat
Windows x64 (portable) codewhale-windows-x64-portable.zip —

Unix (Linux / macOS):

tar xzf codewhale-<platform>.tar.gz
cd codewhale-<platform>
./install.sh

Windows:

  • For the installer path, run CodeWhaleSetup.exe; it installs both binaries under %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\CodeWhale\bin and adds that directory to the current-user PATH.
  • Extract codewhale-windows-x64.zip
  • Run install.bat (copies to %USERPROFILE%\bin)
  • Add %USERPROFILE%\bin to your PATH

The portable Windows archive skips the install script — extract and run from any directory. The NSIS installer is currently unsigned and may trigger Windows SmartScreen until a signing certificate is wired into the release pipeline.

Individual binaries are also attached below for scripting and the npm wrapper. The legacy npm package deepseek-tui is deprecated and is not republished. For migration from v0.8.x legacy binary names, see docs/REBRAND.md.

What's in v0.8.60

Added

  • Agent Fleet real-run cutover (#3154/#3096). codewhale fleet run now
    launches durable workers through the headless codewhale exec --output-format stream-json path instead of the local simulation interpreter, with terminal
    worker events freeing leases so queued fleet tasks continue running.
  • Read-only shell parallelism (#2983). The engine can now run conservative
    read-only shell calls in parallel, including strict bash/sh/zsh -c
    wrappers for whitelisted commands, while writes, stdin, background TTY work,
    redirects, pipes, command substitution, and follow-mode tails stay serial.
  • Declarative JS/TS WhaleFlow authoring (#3097). WhaleFlow now accepts a
    compile-only workflow({...}) JavaScript/TypeScript authoring form that
    lowers into the existing WorkflowSpec validator without executing user
    JavaScript.
  • Slash-menu Ctrl+P/Ctrl+N navigation (#3196). The slash command menu now
    supports Ctrl+P/Ctrl+N movement without letting the global file picker steal
    focus while the menu is open. Thanks @1Git2Clone for the PR.
  • New models and first-party provider routes. This release adds
    GLM-5.2 (selectable on the Z.ai Coding Plan and over OpenRouter as
    z-ai/glm-5.2, alongside the existing GLM-5.1 default), a first-party
    Z.ai provider route, a first-party StepFun / StepFlash route
    (step-3.7-flash), and a first-party MiniMax route defaulting to
    MiniMax-M3 with the M2.7/M2.5/M2.1 family selectable (#3187/#3191).

Changed

  • README and contributor credits. The README now has a shorter public
    overview and moves the full contributor ledger to docs/CONTRIBUTORS.md,
    preserving public thanks for DeepSeek,
    DataWhale,
    OpenWarp, and
    Open Design.
  • Fleet-backed sub-agent direction. Runtime docs now state the intended
    cutover clearly: "sub-agent" is role/UX vocabulary, while durable detached
    work should converge on the fleet-backed worker lifecycle with retries,
    receipts, and ledgered inspection.

Fixed

  • Sub-agent eval no longer blocks by default. agent_eval now returns the
    current projection immediately and delivers follow-up input without waiting
    for a running child to finish its provider call. Pass block:true for an
    intentional terminal wait.
  • Z.ai GLM thinking traces. Direct Z.ai requests now use the documented
    thinking shape, preserve and replay reasoning_content, classify GLM
    reasoning streams as thinking output, and accept ultracode as a max-effort
    alias.
  • Claude skill archive compatibility (#2743). /skill install keeps
    portable Claude-style skill folders supported while rejecting multi-skill
    Claude plugin archives clearly instead of silently installing only one skill
    and dropping plugin semantics. Thanks @AiurArtanis for the ecosystem request.

What's in v0.8.59

Added

  • Moonshot Kimi K2.7 Code model. The Moonshot/Kimi provider now defaults to
    kimi-k2.7-code, recognizes kimi/kimi-k2 aliases for that model, keeps
    explicit kimi-k2.6 selectable, and adds the OpenRouter
    moonshotai/kimi-k2.7-code registry row.
  • Concise verbosity mode (#3052). CLI noninteractive launches now default
    to concise prompt/output discipline unless overridden by config, env, or
    --verbosity, while interactive TUI launches remain normal by default.
    Thanks @cyq1017 for the PR.
  • Ephemeral generated project context (#3058). Opening CodeWhale in a
    directory with no instruction files now keeps the bounded generated project
    overview in memory instead of creating .codewhale/instructions.md.
  • ACP registry auth metadata (#1447). The ACP stdio adapter now advertises
    terminal authentication setup in initialize.authMethods, matching the
    registry's validation requirement.
  • Sidebar context menus (#3065). Right-clicking the sidebar no longer shows
    Paste; clickable sidebar rows now offer their row command as the first
    context action.
  • Sidebar hover popovers (#3088). Streaming turns now keep sidebar hover
    popovers responsive while continuing to throttle transcript/body mouse
    motion.
  • Dark-theme selection contrast (#3074, thanks @drpars). Session, config,
    help, context-menu, and approval selections now use the muted selection
    background instead of the bright accent color.
  • Cursor-style activity metadata rows (#3146). Dense successful tool-run
    summaries now render as a single muted Explored ... / Updated metadata
    row, include short command-family labels for successful generic verifier
    groups, and keep keyboard/mouse expansion and detail inspection intact.
  • Provider-wait observability (#3095). Footer stall reasons now name the
    active provider/model route, idle seconds vs stream budget, and whether a
    fanout plan is still at 0 running or dispatch is pending. Structured
    provider-wait incidents log once per turn from the main tick loop (not on
    every footer redraw).
  • Interactive fanout launch gate (#3095). Direct sub-agent children queue
    behind a configurable semaphore ([subagents] interactive_max_launch,
    default 4) with a visible queued: waiting for an interactive fanout slot
    reason before their first model step.
  • Goal lifecycle controls. /goal is now the primary command surface for
    session goals, with pause, resume, complete, blocked, and clear
    controls while /hunt remains a compatibility alias.
  • Persistent thread-goal API. App-server clients can now set, get, and clear
    durable thread goals through thread/goal/set, thread/goal/get, and
    thread/goal/clear, backed by the state store with Codex-style status and
    token/time accounting fields.
  • Command-boundary ownership layers (#2888/#3055). Built-in slash command
    metadata now lives in commands/registry.rs, slash parsing in
    commands/parse.rs, and handlers under group-owned command areas, preserving
    the existing dispatch surface while reducing future commands/mod.rs churn.
  • Approval-rule source metadata (#1186/#2971). Runtime API
    approval.required events now include optional matched_rule metadata when
    an execution-policy rule caused the prompt. Thanks @greyfreedom for the PR
    and @Ram9199 for the audit-semantics discussion.
  • Localized tool-family labels (#2901). Tool activity labels for read,
    patch, run, find, delegate, fanout, RLM, verify, think, and generic tool
    work now route through the shipped locale tables. Thanks @gordonlu for the
    PR.
  • Localized config section labels (#2918). The interactive config view now
    localizes section and session/saved scope labels while preserving English
    search terms. Thanks @gordonlu for the PR.
  • Localized config editor labels (#2919). The config editor modal now
    localizes edit labels, default/unavailable placeholders, and effective
    currency hints. Thanks @gordonlu for the PR.
  • Hotbar number-key dispatch (#3056). Bare 1-8 now trigger bound
    hotbar slots only when the composer is empty, while Alt+1-Alt+8 trigger
    slots regardless of composer text and overlays keep key ownership. Thanks
    @reidliu41 for the PR.
  • Voice dictation commands (#3051). /voice, /voice-send, and
    /voice-control now record through sox/rec/arecord, transcribe via the
    active provider's chat-completions API, and insert transcripts at the
    composer cursor. The voice.toggle hotbar action dispatches the real voice
    command, with help and status text localized across all seven shipped
    locales. Thanks @HUQIANTAO for the PR.
  • Thread rewind and snapshot restore API (#2808). GUI clients can now call
    POST /v1/threads/{id}/undo, /patch-undo, and /retry to fork, roll back,
    or rerun recent thread turns, plus POST /v1/snapshots/{id}/restore to
    restore a workspace snapshot by id. Thanks @bengao168 for the PR.
  • Active provider fallback chain (#2773). Configured fallback_providers
    now build an ordered primary-plus-fallback route that the TUI can report,
    advance through, and reset with /provider fallback reset, including footer
    visibility for fallback state. Thanks @idling11 for the PR.
  • Provider metadata registry (#3005). Built-in provider ids, display names,
    defaults, env vars, config keys, aliases, and wire formats now live in a
    shared metadata registry, with the provider drift check covering the registry
    contract. Thanks @sximelon for the PR.
  • Hugging Face provider route (#2879). Hugging Face Inference Providers now
    have first-class config, env, docs, and registry coverage for the
    OpenAI-compatible router, including huggingface/hugging-face/
    hugging_face/hf aliases and HUGGINGFACE_*/HF_* env fallbacks. Thanks
    @mvanhorn for the PR.

Fixed

  • SSE data lines without spaces (#3152). Chat Completions, Responses, and
    Anthropic stream readers now accept both data: {...} and data:{...} SSE
    frames, matching the spec and preventing providers that omit the optional
    space from streaming empty output. Thanks @wgeeker for the PR.
  • Runtime thread detail N+1 reads (#3141). get_thread_detail now scans
    persisted turn items once and groups them by turn instead of reading the
    items directory once per turn, preserving item order while keeping large
    thread detail loads responsive.
  • Project-local hook trust boundary (#3140). .codewhale/hooks.toml is now
    loaded only after the workspace is trusted in user-owned config, matching the
    project-local MCP trust model while preserving the documented shell-command
    hook contract.
  • Skill registry sync latency (#3139). /skills sync now syncs registry
    entries with bounded ordered concurrency, so network latency no lo...

What's in v0.8.58

Added

  • Native Anthropic provider. A dedicated Messages API adapter
    (/v1/messages with x-api-key auth) replaces OpenAI-dialect shims for
    Claude models: adaptive thinking with output_config.effort shaping,
    prompt-cache breakpoints (capped at 4, earliest dropped), signed-thinking
    replay via signature_delta, normalized cache-hit/miss usage telemetry,
    and SSE error envelopes. claude-opus-4-8, claude-sonnet-4-6, and
    claude-haiku-4-5 join the model registry; configure with
    ANTHROPIC_API_KEY (#3014).
  • Hooks v2. tool_call_before hooks can now return a JSON decision —
    {"decision": "allow"|"deny"|"ask", "reason", "updatedInput", "additionalContext"} — with deny > ask > allow precedence across multiple
    hooks, last-writer-wins input rewriting, and concatenated context. Exit
    code 2 remains a legacy hard deny. Hooks support glob matchers and
    project-local .codewhale/hooks.toml (#3026).
  • Clickable sidebar. Background-job rows show/cancel on click, the
    Ctrl+K hint row runs /jobs cancel-all, and agent rows open /subagents;
    row actions are built in the same pass as the rendered lines so a click
    can never target the wrong job (#3028).
  • OSC 8 out-of-band hyperlink infrastructure with per-region open/close
    sequences that survive partial redraws (#3029).
  • codewhale exec gains --allowed-tools, --disallowed-tools (deny wins),
    --max-turns, and --append-system-prompt (#3027).
  • Constitution prompt source: YAML source-of-truth plus Python renderer for
    the system prompt, with the active prompt now served from
    constitution.md (#3015, renderer reconciliation still tracked).
  • Agent-task issue template, labels, and runner protocol (#3021); remote
    smoke-test droplet loop hardening — gh CLI, swapfile, agent sessions
    (#3022).

Changed

  • Sub-agent routing is provider-aware. DeepSeek ids are no longer
    hardcoded into model validation; routing works from per-provider
    big/cheap candidates, the network router is skipped when a provider has
    no cheap tier, and spawn-time model requests are validated against the
    active provider (#3018).
  • Model-specific facts in the system prompt (context window, sub-agent
    pricing, thinking notes, architecture characteristics) are now templated
    per-model instead of hardcoded DeepSeek V4 claims, in both base.md and
    constitution.md (#3025).
  • Provider capability lookups for Moonshot/OpenAI/Atlascloud resolve from
    per-model registry rows (bare and vendor-prefixed ids) instead of
    hardcoded 64K-era floors (#3023).
  • Reasoning-effort now reaches Atlascloud (DeepSeek dialect), Moonshot
    (thinking enable/disable), and Ollama (think param) (#3024); Moonshot/
    Kimi models joined the reasoning-content provider and model gates (#3016).
  • Transcript polish: compact tool-call cells without boilerplate (#3031),
    internal turn/agent ids hidden behind stable labels (#3030), and Ctrl+B
    now backgrounds the running foreground shell directly instead of opening
    a menu (#3032).
  • The Tasks sidebar separates "Model reasoning" from "Background commands",
    and auth list reports the same active-credential source as
    auth status for openai-codex.

Fixed

  • TUI freeze under sub-agent load. Rapid AgentProgress events
    saturated the render loop and starved terminal input; progress-driven
    repaints are now throttled to one per 100ms (#3033).
  • Hooks on Windows. Hook commands were passed to cmd /C through
    CRT-style argument quoting, which injected literal \" sequences that
    cmd.exe never unescapes — JSON decisions could not parse. Commands now
    reach cmd.exe verbatim via raw_arg.
  • Codex Responses: assistant tool results are converted to
    function_call_output items (multi-turn tool calling previously broke),
    tool schemas are sanitized for the Responses API, and maximum effort
    maps to xhigh (#3019, #3017 — both partially; retry/backoff and
    per-tool strict mode remain open).
  • Better tool-denial and provider error messages harvested from PR #2933
    (#3020).

What's in v0.8.57

Added

  • Turns now survive system sleep. When the host suspends mid-stream, the
    connection used to die on wake with Stream read error: error decoding response body and the turn was lost (#2990). The engine now stamps stream
    progress with both monotonic and wall-clock time; a large divergence on a
    stream error identifies a sleep/wake cycle, and the request is silently
    re-issued (up to the existing 3-retry budget) instead of failing the turn.
  • One-command release prep. ./scripts/release/prepare-release.sh X.Y.Z
    bumps the workspace version, every internal crate dependency pin, the npm
    wrapper, and the README install-tag examples, refreshes Cargo.lock,
    regenerates the embedded TUI changelog slice and web facts, and runs
    check-versions.sh — the v0.8.56 release needed nine follow-up commits for
    exactly these sync points.
  • .github/CODEOWNERS and .github/dependabot.yml (weekly cargo +
    github-actions updates, monthly npm for web/).

Changed

  • The changelog went on a diet. Root CHANGELOG.md now carries recent
    releases (v0.8.40+); older entries moved to docs/CHANGELOG_ARCHIVE.md.
    crates/tui/CHANGELOG.md — embedded into every binary for /change — is a
    generated 15-release slice (scripts/sync-changelog.sh), no longer a
    357 KB manual byte-for-byte copy (~300 KB smaller binaries).
  • GitHub Release bodies are generated from the tagged version's changelog
    section (scripts/release/generate-release-body.sh) instead of a
    hardcoded workflow blob with a hand-pasted contributor list.
  • check-versions.sh now also gates web/lib/facts.generated.ts and the
    README install-tag examples; the CNB mirror pipeline validates the pushed
    tag against Cargo.toml before generating release notes.
  • Docs reorganized: internal design notes moved under docs/rfcs/; stale
    internal docs (old audits, handoffs, region-specific VM notes) removed.
  • Agent-facing polish: the system prompt environment block reports
    codewhale_version (was deepseek_version), the legacy
    .deepseek/instructions.md path is no longer advertised in the prompt
    (still honored for back-compat), and oversized instruction files are
    truncated with an explicit […truncated: N bytes omitted] marker instead
    of a bare ellipsis.

Fixed

  • Docker images build again. The release docker job failed for v0.8.56
    because the Dockerfile still copied the pre-rebrand deepseek /
    deepseek-tui binaries; they are now symlinks to the codewhale binaries
    inside the image, so legacy container entrypoints keep working.
  • .devcontainer/devcontainer.json used the pre-rebrand container name,
    mount path, and deepseek remote user.
  • Stale --bin deepseek examples, DeepSeek-TUI strings in /change
    output, and pre-rebrand doc comments.

Removed

  • Unused dependencies: tracing-appender and zeroize (TUI crate),
    rustls (release crate); the orphaned vendor/schemaui-0.12.0 lockfile
    leftover and a machine-specific one-off scripts/verify_task.sh.

Contributor credits for this release live in the changelog entry above —
thank you to everyone whose reports, PRs, reviews, and reproductions shaped it.

v0.8.56 — Community Harvest: localization, providers, prefix-cache stability, and fixes

CodeWhale is the canonical project, command, npm package, and
release-asset name. The legacy npm package deepseek-tui is
deprecated and receives no further releases. Users coming from
v0.8.x legacy deepseek / deepseek-tui names should migrate
with docs/REBRAND.md.

Install

Recommended — npm (one command, both binaries)

npm install -g codewhale

The wrapper downloads both binaries from this Release and places them in the same directory.

Docker / GHCR

docker run --rm -it \
  -e DEEPSEEK_API_KEY="$DEEPSEEK_API_KEY" \
  -v ~/.deepseek:/home/codewhale/.deepseek \
  ghcr.io/hmbown/codewhale:v0.8.56

The image ships the codewhale dispatcher and codewhale-tui runtime. The latest tag is also updated on release.

Cargo (Linux / macOS)

cargo install codewhale-cli codewhale-tui --locked

Both crates are required — codewhale-cli produces the codewhale dispatcher and codewhale-tui produces the interactive runtime that the dispatcher delegates to. Installing only one binary will fail at runtime with a MISSING_COMPANION_BINARY error.

Manual download — platform archives (recommended)

Each archive below contains both the codewhale dispatcher and codewhale-tui runtime, plus an install script:

Platform Archive Install script
Linux x64 codewhale-linux-x64.tar.gz install.sh
Linux ARM64 codewhale-linux-arm64.tar.gz install.sh
Linux RISC-V codewhale-linux-riscv64.tar.gz install.sh
macOS x64 codewhale-macos-x64.tar.gz install.sh
macOS ARM codewhale-macos-arm64.tar.gz install.sh
Windows x64 (installer) CodeWhaleSetup.exe NSIS setup
Windows x64 codewhale-windows-x64.zip install.bat
Windows x64 (portable) codewhale-windows-x64-portable.zip —

Unix (Linux / macOS):

tar xzf codewhale-<platform>.tar.gz
cd codewhale-<platform>
./install.sh

Windows:

  • For the installer path, run CodeWhaleSetup.exe; it installs both binaries under %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\CodeWhale\bin and adds that directory to the current-user PATH.
  • Extract codewhale-windows-x64.zip
  • Run install.bat (copies to %USERPROFILE%\bin)
  • Add %USERPROFILE%\bin to your PATH

The portable Windows archive skips the install script — extract and run from any directory. The NSIS installer is currently unsigned and may trigger Windows SmartScreen until a signing certificate is wired into the release pipeline.

Individual binaries are also attached below for scripting and the npm wrapper. The legacy npm package deepseek-tui is deprecated and is not republished. For migration from v0.8.x legacy binary names, see docs/REBRAND.md.

v0.8.53

This release renames the project to CodeWhale. The legacy
deepseek and deepseek-tui binaries continue to ship as
compatibility-only deprecation shims during v0.8.x; they print a
one-line warning and forward to codewhale / codewhale-tui.
They will be removed in v0.9.0. The legacy npm package
deepseek-tui is deprecated and receives no further releases.
