v0.2.0

VibesOS 2.0

A major release bringing project-based workflows, file upload support, and desktop app improvements.

Project Directory Support

• Project folders are now first-class — choose or create a project folder to scope all file operations, deploys, and WebSocket sync
• Recent projects sidebar with screenshots for quick switching
• Project config via vibes.json in each project folder
• Backups written to .vibes/backups/ within project folders
• Auto-populate recent projects from legacy apps on first run

File Uploads & References

• Upload text files, data files, and documents as context for generation
• Large assets uploaded to R2 instead of embedded in workers
• Intent picker for uploaded files (seed/content/context)
• Loading indicator for large file reads

Editor & UI

• Apps panel in navbar with slide-in sidebar
• Choice markers rendered as clickable buttons
• Undo/redo bar hidden until there's history
• Dark fill for logo text, proper theme handling
• Single newlines now render as line breaks in chat

Desktop App

• Fix webview race condition on login and setup screens
• Hidden native titlebar for cleaner appearance
• Auth token refresh timeouts to prevent blank screen on cold start
• vibes:// deep link support (including vibes://fix)
• Plugin fingerprint check on every launch
• Auto-updater with skip tracking and version comparison

Infrastructure

• TinyBase sync via Durable Objects (replaced Fireproof Connect)
• Workers for Platforms namespace deployment
• R2 asset storage for deployed apps
• Pocket ID renamed from Alchemy, Docker image pinned
• Hardened JWT validation, default-deny auth, reserved subdomain blocking
• Install worker validates latest.txt integrity

v0.1.64

What's new

• Multi-pass theme switching — Comment-delimited @theme: sections in app.jsx enable instant color/font swaps (Pass 1, <100ms) followed by targeted Claude creative restyle (Pass 2, 30-90s)
• Faster Claude subprocess calls — Inlined static prompts and app content to eliminate Read tool round-trips (~30s saved per call). Reduced tool permissions and max turns to prevent wandering.
• Editor mode improvements — Generation, theme switching, and legacy restyle all benefit from the prompt inlining optimizations
• New utility — scripts/lib/theme-sections.js for extracting, replacing, and validating theme sections
• Test fixes — Added __VIBES_THEMES__ and __VIBES_THEME_PRESETS__ to safe placeholders in assembly tests

v0.1.57

Fix JWT template name mismatch in launch skill.

The bundle defaults to template: "with-email" and Clerk is configured with that name, but the launch SKILL.md told users to name it fireproof. Fixed to with-email.

v0.1.47

• Consolidate WORKFLOW.md into CLAUDE.md
• Extract canonical workflow graph
• Defer admin ID collection to post-deploy
• Project-scoped admin user ID with automated collection
• Fix connect URL port construction
