ChangesSection of the release

Performance & Stability

  • Added proper timeout handling for bash commands
  • Default timeout: 2 minutes (120 seconds)
  • Maximum configurable timeout: 10 minutes (600 seconds)
  • Fixed Windows path handling for escaped characters
  • Improved telemetry for metrics collection

Environment Configuration

  • Environment variables from configuration are now loaded earlier in the startup process
  • This ensures custom environment settings are available throughout the entire session

Better User Onboarding

  • New users (fewer than 10 startups) now receive targeted tips:
  • "Start with small features or bug fixes, tell Claude to propose a plan, and verify its suggested edits"
  • Replaced advanced git worktree tips with more beginner-friendly guidance

️ Safety Improvements

  • Added supervisor interrupt handling with clear messaging
  • New interrupt message: "Interaction interrupted by the safety supervisor."
  • Better separation of different interruption scenarios (user interrupts vs safety interrupts)
