Description: Version control and storage layer.
What we like: Unit of work is a branch which is cloned instantly using content-addressed storage - never push to main directly. Changes based around a branch description rather than commit messages. Create a working tree from a remote repo without requiring a full clone. Spaces combine repos for large cross-repo tasks. Import/export from git.
What we dislike: Only supports macOS (Apple Silicon) and Linux (x86) due to underlying filesystem requirements for content addressable storage.

Description: Multi-workspace terminal.
What we like: Vertical tabs with individual notifications, working directories, and ports. Split panes within each tab with in-app browser support. Fully macOS native (Swift + libghostty). Includes a CLI and socket API for automation. iOS app syncs in real time to continue on mobile. Good keyboard shortcuts.
What we dislike: Currently macOS only, but there is a waitlist for other platforms.

đ anthropics/claude-code v2.1.198 release
What's changed
- Claude in Chrome is now generally available
- Added background agent notifications in
claude agentsâ sessions that need input or finish now fire theNotificationhook (agent_needs_input/agent_completed) - Added
/datavizskill for chart and dashboard design guidance with a runnable color-palette validator - Gateway: added Claude Platform on AWS (anthropicAws) as an upstream provider; model-not-found responses now advance the failover chain
- Background agents launched from
claude agentsnow commit, push, and open a draft PR when they finish code work in a worktree, instead of stopping to ask - The built-in Explore agent now inherits the main session's model (capped at opus) instead of running on haiku
- Subagents and context compaction now inherit the session's extended thinking configuration, improving output quality on delegated tasks
- Fixed brief network drops mid-response aborting the turn â transient errors like ECONNRESET now retry with backoff instead of failing
- Fixed excessive background classifier requests when sandboxed processes repeatedly accessed the same network host
- Fixed background tasks in web, desktop, and VS Code task panels getting stuck on "Running" after they finish or after resuming a session
- Fixed agent teams: a teammate that dies on an API error now reports "failed" to the lead, and messaging a stuck teammate wakes it to retry immediately
- Fixed the
/diffpanel not refreshing when you switch branches or commit outside the session - Fixed markdown tables overflowing and wrapping their right border when rendered in fullscreen mode
- Fixed Claude Platform on AWS and Mantle sessions dead-ending with "Please run /login" when the STS token expires â
awsAuthRefreshnow runs automatically - Fixed "no route to host" for local-network hosts in macOS background agent sessions by declaring Local Network entitlements
- Fixed
/desktopfailing with "Cannot determine working directory" after entering and exiting a worktree - Fixed background agents repeatedly showing "ReconnectingâŠ" every ~52 seconds on macOS while the agents view was open
- Fixed pressing
âinsideclaude attach <id>exiting to the shell instead of opening the agent view - Fixed
claude --bgsilently creating an unattachable session when combined with--print/-p; the conflicting flags are now rejected up front - Fixed the workflow progress view dropping the earliest agents from the list while the phase counter stayed correct in SDK and desktop-app sessions
- Fixed
.claude/rules/conditional rules not loading when the target file is reached via a symlinked path - Fixed Cmd+click not opening URLs in fullscreen mode in Warp on macOS
- Fixed double-click word selection in fullscreen mode to select the entire URL including the scheme
- Fixed plan mode not auto-allowing read-only tool calls when a session starts in plan mode
- Fixed
/branchderiving its default fork name from the compaction summary instead of the first real prompt - Improved focus mode: subagents launched in a turn now appear in its activity summary, and completed background notifications fold into a single count
- Improved syntax highlighting accuracy in code blocks, diffs, and file previews by upgrading to highlight.js 11
- Keyboard shortcut hints now show opt/cmd instead of alt/super when connected from a Mac over SSH
- Improved API retry UX: the error reason is now shown after the second attempt, and a status page link replaces the spinner tip when the API is overloaded
/loginnow opens the sign-in dialog from theclaude agentsview instead of saying it isn't available- Subagents now treat messages from the agent that launched them as normal task direction; an agent's message is still never treated as the user's approval
- Removed the
/agentswizard; ask Claude to create or manage subagents, or edit.claude/agents/directly

What's New in v0.21.4
This release adds Markdown math rendering and continues the code-review pass from v0.21.2 and v0.21.3. The PR review experience is consolidated into a single Overview panel where the description and individual comments are now annotatable, and the "Copy agent instructions" onboarding reaches code review at parity with plan mode. Five PRs land, including one from returning contributor @ishowman.
Markdown Math Rendering
Plans, annotated documents, and PR content now render LaTeX math. Inline math written as
$âŠ$or\(âŠ\)and display math written as$$âŠ$$or\[âŠ\]typeset through KaTeX, with the fonts bundled into the app so equations render offline. Rendered formulas are also first-class annotation targets: you can drag-select across prose and a formula together, or redline a whole equation, and the selection is captured like any other annotation.Because the same renderer handles arbitrary plan text and untrusted PR descriptions, it is deliberate about what counts as math. A stray or unterminated
$$(or an informal amount like$$100k) no longer runs on and swallows the rest of a document â an unclosed delimiter is treated as ordinary text, so headings and paragraphs below it keep their structure and stay annotatable. Dollar amounts in prose such as$5-$10,$50,000-$100,000, or$5/mo ⊠$10/moare left as literal text rather than being mistaken for inline math.PR #878 closing #831, by @ishowman â requested by @XxxXMil.
PR Overview Panel
Reviewing a pull request used to mean three separate dock tabs â Summary, Comments, and Checks â behind three header buttons. They are now one PR Overview panel: the description and checks stack on the left, comments fill the right, and checks collapse into a progressive-disclosure section with a colored progress label. The comments view gained author avatars, a single-row toolbar with search and filters, a "hide bots" toggle, and background refresh so the discussion and check state stay current while you review.
The description and comments are also annotatable. Select text in the PR description and leave a comment, or click "Annotate" on any comment card to attach a note to the whole comment. These notes show in the Annotations sidebar under their own groups, count toward the review, and ship to the agent â with the full comment body quoted alongside your note, since the agent can't see the PR discussion on its own. Prose notes stay bound to the PR they were made on: switching to another PR in place hides them from view and export rather than carrying them onto the new PR, and switching back brings them right back. The description renders through the full shared block renderer, so tables, callouts, code, and embedded media (images,
<video>, and<picture>) all display inline.PR #981, by @backnotprop.
Copy Agent Instructions in Code Review
Plan mode has a "Copy agent instructions" action that hands an agent the exact clipboard contract for posting annotations back into Plannotator. That onboarding now exists in code review too, at parity with plan mode: the review header menu offers "Agent Instructions" in a live session, and the copied payload documents how to read the changeset, derive line numbers from the diff, and POST line-, file-, and general-scoped comments (including code suggestions). The backend already accepted these; this closes the missing on- ramp.
PR #983, by @backnotprop â suggested by @hakunin on X.
Additional Changes
- Immediate feedback when launching a review agent â clicking Run in Review Agents now shows a pending launch row and a "Starting" state right away, surfaces server-side launch failures instead of silently clearing the request, and hands off cleanly to the real job once it starts. PR #980, by @backnotprop.
- Annotation count badge in the plan and annotate header â the annotations toggle in the shared plan/annotate header now shows a numeric count badge, matching the code-review header. PR #979, by @backnotprop.
- Sturdier media and delimiter parsing â the shared markdown parser no longer lets an unclosed
<video>/<picture>tag or a multi-line<img>swallow or garble the rest of a document, and<picture>/<source>and responsive<img>now render correctly. This hardens the same renderer the math and PR Overview work rely on.

đ exe.dev Adding Features Without Interrupting Network Connections rss
A busy network
People use exe.dev to build and run programs on virtual machines. For virtual machines that are serving web traffic, we handle encryption and authentication. For people using their VM as a traditional computer, we transparently support SSH access. We also provide terminal access to VMs via the web, and of course our popular Shelley AI coding agent. These features and others require exe.dev to proxy incoming connections between the broader internet and an individual VM.
This network proxying isnât trivialâwe have to identify the VM the user is trying to reach, route the connection to that VM (which may be in some different region of the world), and provide basic authentication to verify that the user has access to the VM. For outgoing connections from the VM, we have to route the outgoing network connections correctly, and we provide an increasing number of integrations.
Managing these features and adding new ones means that we regularly update the software that directs network connections, sometimes deploying multiple times a day. Of course, at the same time our usersâand their usersâare making and using network connections to VMs. We have to be able to deploy new software without interrupting those network connections. In this post weâll look at how we do that.
Pipe process
The answer is to simplify the problem by handling the network connections in a separate process, known internally as exepipe. The exepipe process intentionally does not implement any features. Its only job is to manage network connections. That makes it a simple program that doesnât change very often. We can and do run it for months without redeploying it.
An exepipe process takes commands from a proxy process. These commands are simple and donât have any features or options.
The simplest command is âlisten on this network address, and forward any connections to this other network address.â This command is used on VM host machines to direct incoming connections on an external address to a VM address that can only be seen on the same machine.
Another command is âtake these two network connections, and copy data back and forth between them.â This is used by the proxy. The proxy will accept an incoming connection, handle authentication, decide which VM the user is trying to reach, and open a connection to that VM. When both connections are up and running, the proxy will direct exepipe to copy data between the connections.
This uses a handy and slightly obscure socket feature: Unix socket ancillary data. When using a Unix domain socket, you can send ancillary data which can include, among other things, file descriptors. The receiving process gets a new file descriptor that refers to the same open file description as the original process. This file description can be a network socket. This effectively duplicates a network socket from one process to another.
For both of these commands, the exepipe process winds up copying data between network connections. Fortunately on Linux this can be done efficiently using a pair of
splicecalls over a pipe.Since exepipe is rarely restarted, this copying will last as long as it needs to.
There are of course many ways to copy data between network connections, such as the socat program. That, however, requires a separate socat program per connection and a lot of state tracking. Using a single exepipe server is a more efficient use of system resources.
SSH copying
Handling SSH connections is similar, except that forwarding one SSH connection to another SSH connection is more complicated than forwarding a simple TCP connection. The SSH protocol is packet-oriented, with separate communication channels, and the ability for the SSH client to query the SSH server in various ways. The exepipe process has to forward these channels and queries back and forth over two SSH connections.
Restarting the pipe process
Of course, sometimes we do need to change exepipe.
When we redeploy exepipe, we donât want to break any of the connections that the existing instance is managing. So, rather than restart exepipe, we start a new exepipe and leave the old one running.
The new exepipe will contact the old exepipe and tell it to transfer any listening sockets, including the socket used to receive new commands from the proxy. The listening sockets will be handed over using Unix socket ancillary data. The old exepipe will then do nothing but keep copying data between sockets that are already open. When all of those socket connections are closed, the old exepipe has nothing left to do and it will quietly exit.
This work is all in the service of supporting exe.dev users. We handle the details of the network to present a simple and seamless interface, using implementation complexity to provide user simplicity.

đ Simon Willison Have your agent record video demos of its work with shot-scraper video rss
shot-scraper video is a new command introduced in today's shot-scraper 1.10 release which accepts a
storyboard.ymlfile defining a routine to run against a web application and uses Playwright to record a video of that routine. I've written before about the importance of having coding agents produce demos of their work; this is my latest attempt at enabling them to do that.Here's an example video created using
shot-scraper video, exercising a still in development feature adding the ability to create new tables in Datasette from pasted CSV, TSV or JSON data:That video was created by running this command:
shot-scraper video datasette-bulk-insert-storyboard.yml \ --auth datasette-demo-auth.json --mp4
(That
--authJSON file contains a cookie, as described here in the documentation.)Here's the
datasette-bulk-insert-storyboard.ymlfile:output: /tmp/datasette-bulk-insert-demo.webm server: - uv - --directory - /Users/simon/Dropbox/dev/datasette - run - datasette - -p - 6419 - --root - --secret - "1" - /tmp/demo.db url: http://127.0.0.1:6419/demo/tasks viewport: width: 1280 height: 720 cursor: true wait_for: 'button[data-table-action="insert-row"]' javascript: | (() => { let clipboardText = ""; Object.defineProperty(navigator, "clipboard", { configurable: true, get: () => ({ writeText: async (text) => { clipboardText = String(text); }, readText: async () => clipboardText, }), }); })(); scenes: - name: Bulk insert existing table rows do: - pause: 0.8 - click: 'button[data-table-action="insert-row"]' - wait_for: "#row-edit-dialog[open]" - pause: 0.5 - click: ".row-edit-bulk-insert" - wait_for: ".row-edit-bulk-textarea" - pause: 0.5 - click: ".row-edit-copy-template" - wait_for: "text=Copied" - pause: 0.8 - fill: into: ".row-edit-bulk-textarea" text: | title,owner,status,priority,notes Prepare release video,Ana,doing,1,Recorded with shot-scraper Check pasted CSV import,Ben,review,3,Previewed before inserting Share the branch demo,Chen,queued,2,Bulk insert creates three rows - pause: 0.8 - click: ".row-edit-save" - wait_for: "text=Previewing 3 rows." - pause: 1.2 - click: ".row-edit-save" - wait_for: "text=3 rows inserted." - pause: 1.0 - click: ".row-edit-cancel" - wait_for: "text=Prepare release video" - pause: 1.0 - name: Create a table from pasted CSV open: http://127.0.0.1:6419/demo wait_for: 'details.actions-menu-links summary' do: - pause: 0.8 - click: 'details.actions-menu-links summary' - click: 'button[data-database-action="create-table"]' - wait_for: "#table-create-dialog[open]" - pause: 0.5 - fill: into: ".table-create-table-name" text: "launch_metrics" - click: ".table-create-from-data" - wait_for: ".table-create-data-textarea" - pause: 0.5 - fill: into: ".table-create-data-textarea" text: | metric_id,name,score,recorded_on m001,Activation rate,87.5,2026-06-29 m002,Retention check,72.25,2026-06-30 m003,CSV import health,95,2026-07-01 - pause: 0.8 - click: ".table-create-save" - wait_for: "text=Previewing 3 rows." - pause: 1.2 - click: ".table-create-save" - wait_for_url: "**/demo/launch_metrics" - wait_for: "text=Activation rate" - pause: 1.2
The video command documentation includes simpler examples, but for the purpose of this post I thought I'd go with something more comprehensive.
That demo YAML storyboard was constructed entirely by GPT-5.5 xhigh running in Codex Desktop, using the following prompt run inside my
~/dev/datasettecheckout of this branch:Review the changes on this branch.cd to ~/dev/shot-scraper and run the command "uv run shot-scraper video --help"Now use that new video command to record a video demo of the new features from this branch, including running a "uv run datasette -p 6419 --root --secret 1 /tmp/demo.db" development server so you can record the video against a demo DB that you first create.Now that I've released the feature the prompt could say "
run uvx shot-scraper video --help" instead and it should achieve the same result.I really like this pattern where the
--helpoutput for a command provides enough detail that a coding agent can use it - it works kind of like bundling aSKILL.mdfile directly inside the tool. I used the same pattern for showboat and rodney.How I built this
shot-scraper videostarted as an experimental prototype.shot-scraperis built on top of Playwright, and the key feature it needed was for Playwright to be able to record video of browser sessions with enough control to create the desired demo.I first tried this a few years ago and found that the Playwright-produced videos included additional chrome that was useful for debugging a test failure but unwanted for a product demo.
They fixed that a while ago, but there were still some minor blockers. In particular I was getting a few white frames at the start of the videos, since the recording mechanism kicked in before the first URL was loaded by the browser.
Playwright 1.59 added a new screencast mechanism providing much more finely grained control over video recording. This was very nearly what I needed, but the resulting videos were fixed at 800px wide.
I found a landed PR fixing that but it wasn't yet in a release. Then yesterday they shipped it in playwright-python 1.61.0 and I was finally unblocked to finish implementing the feature!
The code itself was all written by GPT-5.5 xhigh in Codex Desktop. I had it write the documentation as well which gave me a very useful frame for reviewing the design - much of the iteration on the feature came from reviewing that documentation, spotting things that were redundant, inconsistent or confusing, and requesting (or dictating) a better design.
The YAML format itself was mostly defined by the coding agent. I had it use Pydantic to both define and validate the format, partly to make the design easier to review.
This is a great example of the kind of feature that I almost certainly wouldn't have taken on without coding agent support. I filed the original issue in February 2024, and had difficulty finding the necessary time to solve this in amongst all of my other projects.

đ Evan Schwartz Scour - June Update rss
Hi friends,
Many of you mistakenly got onboarding emails yesterday. I'm sorry about that. I was tweaking the way emails are sent to new users and accidentally sent it out to everyone. Don't worry, you'll get your weekly digest on Friday as usual. (If you got a message about verifying your email, please do verify yours if you'd like to continue receiving the weekly digests.)
In June, Scour scoured 841,977 articles from 27,356 feeds , and 123 new users signed up. Welcome!
Here's what's new in the product:
đ Links Between Articles
Scour now tracks and shows which articles cover other ones so you can find coverage, reactions, and responses to a given story. Under any post, you can see both the stories that the given one links to, and which other sources link to it. A detail I especially like is that the covering sources you tend to like and read are shown first, so you can easily find your favorite commentators' reactions.
Relatedly, there's now a page that shows the most widely covered stories across Scour. If you subscribe to specific feeds, you can also add this as a feed to source content from.
Laurynas Keturakis suggested this over a year ago and after finally implementing it this month, it quickly became one of my favorite Scour features. Thanks Laurynas!
đ Grow Your Feed After Reading
After you love or like a post, you'll see a small prompt to add more interests similar to that article's content. Adding interests is the best way to hone your feed and make sure Scour surfaces articles you'll like, so I hope this makes it easier to do that.
If you subscribe to individual feeds, that prompt will also include a way to subscribe to the publisher's feed, if you aren't already, so you'll get more content from them.
Similarly, if you dislike a post, you'll see some options to have less of that kind of content appear in the future.
đ± Redesigned Feed User Interface
The Scour feed got a makeover! The new layout should be easier to scan and interact with.

Clicking or tapping a post opens the expanded view:

Also, on mobile, you can swipe articles right or left to quickly like or dislike them.
đșïž Discover Section
The new Discover section contains all of your personalized interest and feed recommendations, as well as the pages to browse popular posts, interests, and feeds. Head over there if you'd like to build out your feed more, or if you want to see what others are reading on Scour.
đŁïž Better Screen Reader Support
Scour now works far better with assistive technology. Every post is a labeled article whose actions are reachable by screen reader and keyboard, menus support arrow-key navigation, and the things that used to change silently (filter updates, search results, newly loaded posts) are announced as they happen. If you or someone you know reads Scour with assistive tech, I'd love your feedback. See the new Accessibility page for the full picture.
đŹ Testimonials on the Homepage
Enjoying Scour? I added testimonials to the homepage and I'd love to include your review! Email me to let me know your thoughts (and of course, constructive feedback is also very welcome).
đ Some of My Favorite Posts
Here were some of my favorite articles I found on Scour in June:
- I've been thinking a lot about the ways that AI changes what it feels like to be a software engineer and I especially appreciated these takes:
- Andrew Diamond made a great comparison with historical fiction writers in Software Engineering in the Age of AI.
- Vardan Torosyan pointed out that every engineer is now facing the kind of overload engineering managers have always dealt with: There is Too Much.
- Candost discusses having an ownership mindset in On the Changing Role of Software Engineers.
- And a goofy font that Bill Tarbell made that's readable for humans but not for AI: Souls Only.
Happy Scouring!

đ Cryptography & Security Newsletter The Threat of Residential Proxies rss
The last several years have seen the continuous rise of so-called residential proxies. If youâre not familiar with this term, the name refers to the proxies usually (but not always, as we will see later) installed at residential addresses and used for website scraping and similar activities. Itâs a fairly niche topic, and itâs quite likely that you wonât have heard about it. It is, however, a phenomenon that requires your attention.

đ MetaBrainz Current ListenBrainz server issues/high load rss
Our apologies if you are experiencing outages or slowness on ListenBrainz currently. First it was AI scrapers, now it's K-pop fansâŠ
In short, we are experiencing massive server load from an unexpected and massive increase in listen submissions. Please bear with us as the small (but mighty) ListenBrainz team works on possible mitigations.
None of your listens are being lost, they are all sitting safely in our (massively overloaded) processing queue:
Try to
spot when the trouble started!This has come about because last.fm recently changed how they calculate their statistics, in order to "reduce the impact of bots and scripts on [their] charts and leaderboards".
This has caused BTS (a K-pop group) fans to abandon last.fm en masse and shift their attention to ListenBrainz (and libre.fm). The keen eye will be able to notice a difference in ListenBrainz' current global statistics, compared to last year.
~~K-pop fans, if you 're reading this, please don't

~~Edit/clarification: We are simply asking the few users who are gaming our charts with (very obviously) tool-assisted submissions to please stop/not to do that. The vast majority of K-pop fans, who are respectful, are always welcome here
We are a very small team on a very tight budget, and don't have the resources to absorb your onslaught. We will start pausing accounts that are found to be aggressively botting and gaming the charts, as per our code of conduct (section 9).
There's more to dig into on this topic, for instance how these listens are being submitted, and the cultural movements and fandom that prompt this kind of mass action, but we need to be fixing queues, not writing blog posts! So we will let our informed community fill in the gaps, in the comments. Happy reading, and here's hoping that our next update/s will be all good news.

đ Ampcode News Agents in Orbs rss
You can now launch Amp agents remotely in orbs:
Orbs are machines where agents can run without supervision. When you create a new thread you get a fresh orb that contains your code, plugins, and tools the agent might need.
Each orb has 32GB memory, 16 cores, $1.66/hour, billed by the minute. They start up quick and go to sleep when you and the agent no longer need them.
Remote and Yet So Near
Agents in orbs aren't running on your machine, but you can control them just like they were.
You can review changes and browse through the files on the orb:
You can use the terminal:
If you want to iterate alongside the agent, you can sync the changes to your local machine by running:
amp sync <thread-id>Like this:
And just like you can spawn new Amp thread with
amp -x, you can useamp -oxto spawn a thread in an orb:amp -ox "Investigate why the latest CI run on 'main' failed"You don't even have to leave the Amp TUI to spawn an agent that lives in orb:
See the manual for more information on orbs and how to use them.
Things Change
The ability to spin up new agents from everywhere and then let them run for as long as they need changed how we work with agents.
Of course, having multiple agents work at the same time was already possible before this: one could use different checkouts for different agents, or worktrees, or run agents manually via SSH on remote hosts.
But when it's this easy to launch an agent on a machine that isn't your own, in the very same interface that you already use to manage your local agents, right next to those local agents, with the very same controls?
Things change.
For one, you tend to do it a lot more.
Why not launch a group of agents to investigate eight different bugs independently when there are no local resource clashes to worry about? Why not turn a bug report into an agent and an investigation instead of a ticket? Why not manage the agent and its results instead of the ticket?
You also start to use them for things you hadn't considered before.
Why not launch an agent to run for a very long time and try out all possible performance optimizations if it doesn't eat up your CPU? Why not have agents run through testing workflows if that doesn't conflict with your local agents and steal memory away from them?
Why not build that prototype? Why not go for that moonshot? Why not try?
Why not?
Time to Find Out
Back in February we said that we hold the models back if we treat them as mere assistants and lock them into a sidebar. The models, we proclaimed, "want to write code and run even when you're not sitting in front of your editor".
And now we're here. Never mind the editor, now we can let our agents run even when we're not sitting at our computer.
We believe that is how a lot of code will be written in the future. We believe that this is not just another step, but a step over an important threshold.
How exactly this will play out we don't know. Some code will likely always be created locally, under close supervision, with a lot of back and forth. But these models are getting so good that the amount of code they can write on their own (and run, and test, and ship) will only grow. At this point, we hold them back if we require them to do it all on a single machine.
And once you let them loose in orbs, you realize how constrained theyâve been.
Time to find out how far they can go.

Weâve also fixed some build issues on Windows (@mukilan, #45079), FreeBSD (@delan, @mrobinson, @mukilan, #44600), and for anyone building Servo on NixOS or with Nix (@freyacodes, #45051, #45135).
This is another big update, so hereâs an outline:
-

â execCommand(), Sanitizer, IndexedDB, accessibility, workers -
Embedding API
â MSRV, cookies, preferences, diagnostics -
For users and developers
â--host-file,--userscripts, DevTools Debugger -
More on the web platform

Stability
â crashes, hangs, static analysis
Security __ Servoâs JS runtime, SpiderMonkey 140.10.0 , had several memory safety bugs that have been fixed in Servo 0.3.0 with the update to SpiderMonkey 140.10.1 (@jschwe, #44755). For more details, see CVE-2026-7322, CVE-2026-7323, and MFSA 2026-36. Work in progress Weâre continuing to implement document.execÂCommand() for rich text editing , under --pref domÂ_execÂ_commandÂ_enabled (@TimvdLippe, #44735, #44973, #44887). This release adds support for the âbackÂColorâ , âforeÂColorâ , âcreateÂLinkâ , âunlinkâ , âsuperscriptâ , âsubscriptâ , and âremoveÂFormatâ commands (@TimvdLippe, #44644, #44682, #44657, #44710, #44677), plus partial support for the âinsertÂParagraphâ command (@TimvdLippe, #44909). Weâre also working on the Sanitizer API, under --pref domÂ_sanitizerÂ_enabled. With the feature now enabled in servoshellâs experimental mode (@kkoyung, #44701), this release adds support for setÂComments() , setÂDataÂAttributes() , allowÂProcessingÂInstruction() , removeÂProcessingÂInstruction() , and removeÂUnsafe() on Sanitizer (@kkoyung, #44734, #44983). IndexedDB continues to improve, under --pref domÂ_indexeddbÂ_enabled. This release brings a more conformant abort() on IDBÂTransaction (@Taym95, #43950). All of the features above are enabled in servoshellâs experimental mode. Weâve made more progress towards accessibility support, including the name from contents algorithm (@alice, @delan, @mrobinson, #44439) and several changes towards building the accessibility tree incrementally (@alice, @delan, @mrobinson, #44766, #45035, #45207, #44768, #44785, #44801, #44767, #45029). The latter is critical for performance in real-world web content. Weâre now working on SharedWorker and ServiceWorker , under --pref domÂ_sharedworkerÂ_enabled and --pref domÂ_serviceworkerÂ_enabled respectively. This release adds support for new SharedÂWorker() (@Taym95, #44761), and parts of the ServiceWorker API (@gterzian, @arihant2math, #45082, #44787). Embedding API
Servo now requires Rust 1.88.0 or newer, up from the old MSRV of 1.86.0 (@sagudev, #44815). We run compile tests with the MSRV, but most of our testing is now done with Rust 1.95.0 (@simonwuelker, #44632).
Breaking changes to the cookies methods in our SiteDataManager API (@longvatrong111, #44708):
-
SiteÂDataÂManager::clearÂ_cookiesnow takes an additionalcallbackargument, allowing it to be called async â to continue calling it sync, passNoneas thecallback -
SiteÂDataÂManager::clearÂ_sessionÂ_cookiesnow takes an additionalcallbackargument, allowing it to be called async â to continue calling it sync, passNoneas thecallback -
SiteÂDataÂManager::setÂ_cookieÂ_forÂ_urlnow takes an additionalcallbackargument, allowing it to be called async â to continue calling it sync, passNoneas thecallback -
SiteÂDataÂManager::setÂ_cookieÂ_forÂ_urlÂ_asynchas been removed in favour ofsetÂ_cookieÂ_forÂ_urlâ to migrate, replacesetÂ_cookieÂ_forÂ_urlÂ_async(âcallback)withsetÂ_cookieÂ_forÂ_url(âSome(âBox::new(âcallback)))
Breaking changes to our Preferences API (@Narfinger, @mrobinson, #44307):
-
threadpoolsÂ_imageÂ_cacheÂ_workersÂ_max,threadpoolsÂ_indexeddbÂ_workersÂ_max, andthreadpoolsÂ_webstorageÂ_workersÂ_maxhave been removed in favour of a combinedthreadÂ_poolÂ_workersÂ_max -
threadpoolsÂ_fallbackÂ_workerÂ_numhas been renamed tothreadÂ_poolÂ_fallbackÂ_workers -
threadpoolsÂ_asyncÂ_runtimeÂ_workersÂ_maxhas been renamed tothreadÂ_poolÂ_asyncÂ_runtimeÂ_workersÂ_max -
threadpoolsÂ_webrenderÂ_workersÂ_maxhas been renamed tothreadÂ_poolÂ_webrenderÂ_workersÂ_max
Weâve also reworked our DiagnosticsLogging API (@mukilan, #44703):
-
You can now set options with
DiagnosticsLogging::toggleÂ_option, and check if they are enabled withDiagnosticsLogging::isÂ_enabled -
Each option is a variant of
DiagnosticsLoggingOption, a new type that also has useful methods for exposing these options in embedder UI -
(Breaking change)
DiagnosticsLoggingno longer haspubfields representing each option â to migrate, replace field writes and field reads withtoggleÂ_optionandisÂ_enabledrespectively -
(Breaking change)
DiagnosticsLogging::extendÂ_fromÂ_stringno longer accepts ahelpoption â this option only existed to support servoshellâs-Z help/--debug=helpoption, so the code implementing it has been moved to servoshell
For users and developers servoshell has two new options: You can now configure the path to a hosts file with --host-file= (singular), as an alternative to the HOST_FILE (singular) environment variable (@jschwe, #44880). You can now provide a directory of user scripts to run in every document with --userscripts= (@jdm, #44754). When using the Debugger tab in the Firefox DevTools : You can now âblackboxâ a script by clicking Ignore source (@freyacodes, #44359). This prevents breakpoints from being hit inside that script, and it should also allow you to step through execution in the debugger without pausing inside that script. The Scopes panel is more accurate now (@atbrakhi, @eerii, #44765). For developers of Servo itself, please note that per project policy, you must not use the output of large language models or other generative AI tools in your contributions. To help us enforce that, we now have CI checks that reject AI agents as coauthors (@SimonSapin, @delan, #44723). Weâve also fixed build issues with --features vello (@Gae24, @yezhizhen, #44875, #45036). More on the web platform
Weâve improved the default appearance of < dl>, < ol>, < ul>, < table>, < thead>, < tbody>, < tfoot>, < tr>, < td>, < th>, < dir>, < menu>, and < form> (@avis137, #44837, #44920).
CryptoKey is now serializable , allowing it to be used in structuredClone() and postMessage() (@kkoyung, #45163).
Weâve improved JS error messages in several parts of the DOM (@n0blenote, @jdm, @TG199, @PuercoPop, #44704, #45186, #44656).
Weâve improved the conformance of form submission (@yezhizhen, #44943, #44953, #44954, #44957), tab navigation (@mrobinson, #44684), javascript: url navigation (@jdm, @TimvdLippe, #43490), âRefreshâ headers and < meta http-equiv=Refresh> (@jschwe, @mrobinson, #45113, #45116), âline-break: anywhereâ (@mrobinson, @SimonSapin, #44609), assign() on Location (@TG199, @jdm, #44298), crypto.subtle.deriveÂBits() (@kkoyung, #44706), getÂComputedÂStyle() (@Loirooriol, #44856), performance.measure() (@shubhamg13, #44675), readÂAsÂDataÂURL() on FileÂReader (@yezhizhen, #44897, #44924), stream() on Blob (@Taym95, #45133), and ML-KEM in SubtleÂCrypto (@kkoyung, #45153).
Weâve also landed improvements to GPUÂSupportedÂLimits (@sagudev, #45114), GPUÂTexture (@sagudev, #45154), createÂBindÂGroup() on GPUÂDevice (@sagudev, #45140), and other WebGPU features (@sagudev, #45097).
Weâve fixed bugs related to < svg> with âContent-Security-Policyâ (@TimvdLippe, @jdm, #44974), â:activeâ (@SharanRP, @mrobinson, #43953), â:hoverâ (@SharanRP, @mrobinson, #43979), âalign-itemsâ (@yezhizhen, #44396), âborder-image- outsetâ (@lumiscosity, #45039), âpaddingâ with âoverflow: scrollâ (@stevennovaryo, #44263), âpointerupâ events (@mrobinson, #44666), âslotchangeâ events (@jdm, #44688), dynamic import() (@Gae24, #44741), and clip() on CanvasRenderingContext2D (@yezhizhen, #44831).
Performance Weâve built a tool that will help us improve âabout:memoryâ by finding untracked allocations (@jdm, @TimvdLippe, @webbeef, #44674, #44980). Servo now requires fewer OS threads per CPU, after we combined the thread pools for the image cache, web storage, and IndexedDB (@Narfinger, @mrobinson, #44307). Weâve landed a bunch of layout optimisations: The fragment tree is now immutable for the most part, with small pockets of interior mutability where mutability is needed. This means that most fragment tree accesses no longer have to incur the runtime cost of borrowing an AtomicRefCell (@mrobinson, @Loirooriol, #44849). Two steps in the layout process, calculating containing blocks and building the stacking context tree , require traversing the fragment tree. This can be expensive, but weâve now combined them into a single fragment tree traversal in most cases (@SimonSapin, @mrobinson, #44911, #45210). Another step in the layout process, calculating scrollable overflow , used to require traversing the entire fragment tree. Weâve effectively eliminated that traversal, by making the calculation both lazy and incremental (@mrobinson, @Loirooriol, #44854). Weâve improved the caching of fragments, shaping results, and other layout results between reflows (@mrobinson, @Loirooriol, @SimonSapin, #45038, #44769). Weâve made incremental fragment layout more precise (@Loirooriol, @mrobinson, #44925). Weâve reduced the memory usage of text shaping (@mrobinson, @SimonSapin, #44609). DOM attributes are much more efficient in this release: When scripts write attribute values, we avoid serialising them until the attribute is read back by a script (if ever), speeding up frequent writes to inline styles by up to 25% (@mrobinson, #44931). When we parse attributes in HTML or read attribute values internally, we avoid constructing Attr nodes until a script actually needs them, reducing memory usage and making garbage collection less likely (@webbeef, @TimvdLippe, @mrobinson, #44209, #45023, #45031, #45060). Weâve eliminated a traversal of the whole DOM tree whenever an < iframe> is attached to the tree, which is especially noticeable when parsing documents with many <iframe> tags (@mrobinson, #45236). Stylesheet locks now use AtomicRefCell, which is even more efficient than a parking_lot::RwLock (@mrobinson, #44883). On OpenHarmony, we now have a real refresh driver for reduced idle CPU usage (@jschwe, @yezhizhen, #44927), and we now cache the font list on disk for faster startup (@RichardTjokroutomo, @d-desyatkin, #44158). Weâve also reduced allocations, GC rooting steps, and other operations in many parts of Servo (@jschwe, @kkoyung, @mrobinson, @SteveSharonSam, @Narfinger, @jdm, @nodelpit, @simonwuelker, #44961, #44944, #44972, #45231, #45078, #44662, #44679, #44967, #44963, #44933, #44935, #44905). To improve Servoâs build times , weâre moving more code out of our massive script crate (@Narfinger, @jdm, #44598, #44636, #44823), and reduced the size of our dependency tree (@jschwe, #44818). Stability __
Several crashes and hangs have been fixed:
- in âcontentâ (@mrobinson, @Loirooriol, @SimonSapin, #45227, #44762)
- in MediaÂStream (@jdm, #44781)

claude agentssession status: completed rows no longer flip between "Done" and "Needs your input", stalled agents are now labeled "Needs attention", and results that mention a PR show a clickable link - Fixed voice dictation swallowing spaces and spuriously starting a recording during very fast typing when voice mode is enabled
- Improved background session reliability: long-running commands and workflows now survive the session's process being stopped, restarted, or updated â including on Windows, where background shells are handed off instead of being killed
- Improved background agents: workers killed by a daemon restart are now automatically resumed from where they left off the next time the agents view opens
- Improved
/code-reviewworkflow: merged five cleanup finders into one, cutting token usage by roughly 25% - Reduced per-frame rendering work in the terminal UI by skipping no-op subtree walks during streaming

Hi!
A couple of side-project updates: keeping my archival tool alive, ssh-over-web-browser tailored to my needs, and a slightly better dictation CLI.
Archivist Updates
I continue to use, and get a lot of value out of, Archivist.
Since the original post about the project, six years ago (sic!), the tool got extended with collecting screenshots, finding similar items across all sources, and recently moved to my new Home Server, hosted as a permanent web app.
For collecting screenshots, I use a two-tier system:
- I have a couple of Hammerspoon shortcuts overriding the default macOS ones, that take the screenshot, place it in
Dropbox/Screenshots/folder, and inject OCR text into the files through a combination oftinyocrandxattr. Dropbox only supports a subset ofxattr, so this took some figuring-out, but I managed to find a way to sync them with the Home Server, with the OCR data surviving in the file. I could do OCR purely in Archivist and save some headaches, but the nice side-effect of having it inxattris that Spotlight indexes that data, so I can do a quick search for image content directly from Spotlight. - Archivist does a refresh of all its sources hourly, and as part of that, picks up any changes to the Dropbox folder, and updates its local DB.
Similarity search was a fun recent addition. As part of the hourly refresh, all images are processed on-device with
DINOv2-basefor embeddings (after some extra post-processing to make them square, without alpha channel, etc.). The resulting vector is stored in the SQLite as a blob of numbers.Together with this, textual values (like the OCR info, metadata, etc.) are embedded with
MiniLM-L6-v2, and stored into another table.The final search uses HNSW index for super fast fetches (under 16ms for my ~10k items), and combines results from image and text similarity searches.
All together, we get this:
Telegraphist
On the topic of always-on custom services, I couldn't find any app that would tick all the boxes for my
ssh-from-iPhone needs:- I continue to stubbornly use
base16-shellfor terminal theming, so I can very easily set colors with a simple command, even though I rarely use it. - I wanted something that works with terminal graphics, as I â also rarely â use
timgto poke at images inline. - Finally, on the Home Server, I'm always in a
tmuxsession, so a native support for that would be nice.
I poked around AppStore, but couldn't find anything ticking at least some of these boxes. I also tested a handful of "web TTY" kinds of things, but nothing sparked joy. So, I made my own TTY-in-a-browser: Telegraphist.
It didn't take much prompting to combine a PTY library, a WebSocket connection, and
xterm.jsand get something tailor-made for me.The
base16-shellcolors not only work in the terminal, but also impact the minimal UI:I can look at images:
And there's a native
tmuxintegration:The most fun part of this project was cutting corners to get to a rough first working version, and then working on improvements from within itself.
Tinyparakeet
Exactly a year ago I wrote about a small Whisper wrapper that I used to use for dictation.
Since then I discovered
parakeetfamily of models, and madetinyparakeetâ a small CLI tool for speech-to-text, fully on-device:It's open source if you, like me, rarely have a need for dictating things, and mostly live in CLI:
szymonkaliski/tinyparakeet.Worth Checking Out
What I've been reading lately:
- The Charisma Machine, recommended by a friend, a great "Look for Opposite Views Instead of Confirming Ones" kind of book on Constructionism.
- Theory and Reality, a great meta-overview of philosophy of science themes. I was already familiar with most of the original works, but it was still fun to go through a refresher, and see them contrasted against each other.
- The Theoretical Minimum, the second half of which was a bit too dense for me right now. Physics has never been my strong suit, and I want to get a bit better at it.
On the web:
- a great talk from Andy Matuschak on LLMs and Malleable Software
- and on that topic, Deadmau5 vibe-coding his own music production tool
- lovely morphing visualizations
- Bret Victor on "Time and Possibility" â the Dynamicland Archive remains a treasure trove
- visualizing p5.js execution
- "I'm not worried about the machines. The machines are fine. I'm worried about us."
- I have a couple of Hammerspoon shortcuts overriding the default macOS ones, that take the screenshot, place it in
-
