Full Changelog: v0.2.0...v0.2.1

ace v0.2.0-beta

macOS Beta Release

This beta is a macOS-only desktop release focused on browser reliability, Codex workflow clarity, provider/session correctness, and sharper runtime diagnostics. It includes builds for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.

Downloads

• Apple Silicon: ace-0.2.0-beta-arm64.dmg
• Intel Mac: ace-0.2.0-beta-x64.dmg
• Auto-update payloads: macOS ZIP files, blockmaps, and latest-mac.yml are included for Electron updater support.

Highlights

• Browser links now behave like a normal browser: target="_blank" and popup/new-window requests open inside new ace browser tabs, and right-clicking links includes Open Link in New Tab. (#63)
• Browser failure handling is cleaner: unreachable pages show a simple retryable error page instead of a blank webview or noisy boxed UI. (#63)
• Right-side browser panel shortcuts now support fullscreen and floating chat toggles, including macOS Option-key normalization for keyboard layouts that emit alternate characters. (#63)
• Codex goal workflows are easier to drive and read: goal command discovery is surfaced in the UI, and completed/stopped goals no longer keep showing as actively pursued. (#61)
• Runtime diagnostics remain visible after work completes, including completed hidden-work summaries and visible runtime error details. (#60)
• Provider checks are scoped to instance settings so multi-provider setups avoid cross-instance validation noise. (#62)
• Desktop process teardown and release infrastructure are more reliable, with additional Linux build workflow hardening kept out of this macOS artifact set. (#58, #59)

Merged PRs Since v0.2.0-alpha

• #63 Open browser links in new tabs from webviews
• #62 Scope provider checks to instance settings
• #61 Add Codex goal command discovery and UI support
• #60 Keep runtime diagnostics visible in completed work
• #59 Refresh repository docs and workflows for ace

Notes
