v0.9.2 July 22, 2026 latest

• The app icon is now drawn from a vector master, so it stays sharp at every size.

v0.9.1 July 21, 2026

• A brand-new app icon.

v0.9.0 July 17, 2026

• Type-to-filter matches all words: type "pdf 39" and the list narrows to names that contain both, in any order. Space extends the filter while you compose it, and a caret in the filter label shows that you are still typing.

v0.8.0

• Choose your list columns: the header's context menu adds created, last-opened, and added dates, kind, extension, and tags. Each pane remembers visibility, order, and width, and every column sorts.
• Send files via Mail straight from the context menu.
• Undo is sturdier: undoing an operation that overwrote a file restores the overwritten version from the Trash, and a failed undo stays in history so you can try again.
• A "Launch at login" toggle in Settings → General.
• Inode checks for updates quietly at launch instead of interrupting you.

v0.7.0

• Connections support passwords — save one to the Keychain, or type it when you connect.
• Keyboard defaults match Finder: ↩ renames, ⌘O or ⌘↓ opens, ⌘⌫ moves to the Trash.
• Prefer the classic keys? F2, F7, and F8 still work, and every shortcut can be changed in the config.

v0.6.0

• Add your own SFTP, WebDAV, FTP, SMB, or rclone servers in Settings → Connections, with no SSH config required.
• Every server appears in the sidebar: click to connect, eject to end a live session.
• Test a connection before you save it, and point SFTP at a specific private key.
• The ~/.ssh/config importer follows OpenSSH semantics — Include files and variable expansion land the way ssh reads them.

v0.5.0

• Connect to servers with ⌘K — SFTP hosts straight from your SSH config, plus WebDAV, FTP, and SMB shares.
• Copy to and from servers with F5, create folders, rename, and delete — with progress and conflict choices.
• Choose Inode's theme in Settings → Appearance: same as the system, or always light or dark.
• After an update, Inode shows what changed.

v0.4.6

• Ask Inode's availability and error messages are now localized (English and German), and explanations for unsupported requests arrive in the language you asked in.

v0.4.5

• A command-line companion: Settings → General installs the inode command. inode <path> opens a location in the app, with flags for the Shelf, panes, and the visor; inode:// links do the same from other apps, restricted to three vetted commands.
• A plain-language pass over dialogs, tour steps, and settings — English and German; Ask Inode's availability and error messages followed in v0.4.6.

v0.4.4

• Filter the sidebar as you type (⌘⌥F): matching groups keep their children, ↩ activates the first match, ↓ moves into the list.
• First launch opens a window sized to your screen instead of a small fixed frame.

v0.4.3

• Privacy: error reporting is now off by default. Opt in under Settings → General → Privacy, where a footnote spells out exactly what a report carries.
• Safer file operations: a failed or cancelled extraction into a new folder leaves no partial destination, merges refuse conflicts up front, and when a cross-volume move fails while cleaning up the source, the completed copy at the destination stays put.
• Content search stays responsive: search helpers are time-boxed and cancellable, and partial results survive a timeout.

v0.4.2

• Removable volumes get an inline eject button in the sidebar, matching Finder.
• The disk-usage treemap hides dotfiles by default; a header toggle brings them back without a rescan.
• Enabling Finder Windows in the sidebar without automation permission now explains itself and offers the jump to Privacy & Security, instead of silently doing nothing.

v0.4.1

• Launch no longer hangs while macOS is slow to answer keychain requests.
• Folders get a preview too: select one in Preview Mode for a disk-usage treemap — switch between size and file count, and click a directory tile to descend.

v0.4

• Settings rebuilt in the native macOS idiom: General, Appearance, Terminal, and About tabs. Changes apply immediately, and hand edits to config.jsonc fold in live.
• Visor fixes for multi-monitor setups: the slide stays on its own screen, and closing the visor leaves other Inode windows alone.
• Inode registers as a Finder "Open With" target for files and folders.
• One-time upgrade note: Inode joined the river42 app family under a new bundle identity, so v0.2/v0.3 installs update by downloading once from inode.pro — then re-grant Full Disk Access and re-enter your license key. Updates flow automatically again afterwards.

v0.3

• Preview & Edit Mode (⌘⌥P): the inactive pane becomes a live preview of the selection — and text files are editable right there, saved through the same undo-friendly queue. Unsaved edits are rescued, never lost.
• A real search bar behind ⌘F: scopes from This Folder to This Volume to Everywhere, content terms, kind/date/size chips, saved searches. Results open in a split below the browse view.
• Ask Inode can search now: "find reports edited this week" fills the criteria and runs it.
• A Finder-grade "Open With" submenu for any selection.
• Pin Inode on top while you work in another app, and jump back with the Recent Folders picker.
• Install via Homebrew: brew install --cask river42-com/tap/inode.
• Licensing: every purchase includes a year of updates, and the versions you install keep working forever.

v0.2.1

• A first-launch "Welcome to Inode" tour of the essentials, with Full Disk Access guidance where macOS needs it.
• German localization for the core UI.
• The 14-day trial is enforced properly, and keys for other river42 apps no longer unlock Inode.
• The keyboard-shortcuts window opens at a sensible size.

v0.2

• First public build: dual panes with tabs, breadcrumb path bar, list and icon views, Quick Look, session restore.
• Ask Inode (⇧⌘Space) — plain-language selections, filters, and file operations, parsed on device by Apple Intelligence.
• Smart sidebar: working directories of running agents, editors, shells, and tmux sessions; Finder windows; Recents; a Shelf for collecting file references.
• Go Anywhere (⇧⌘G) and a command palette (⌘⇧P) that reaches every action.
• Robust file operations — APFS clones, real progress, per-item conflicts, a queue, and ⌘Z undo across moves, renames, trash, copies, and archives.
• Git status badges, archives browsable as folders, embedded terminal, batch rename, compare & sync, recursive search, visor mode, optional vim keys, JSONC config with live reload.
• Sparkle auto-updates with signed appcast.
