v0.3.40 Three-panel Workspace Shell

Release date: 2026-06-09

v0.3.40 focuses on the desktop workspace shell so future context, detail, and supporting tools can live beside the main work area instead of competing with it.

New features

  • The desktop workspace now uses a three-panel shell with a left navigation rail, center main workspace, and right auxiliary rail.
  • The new right auxiliary rail includes its own expand/collapse entry plus reserved header and body space for future context, detail, and helper tools.

Refinements

  • Left and right rail toggle buttons now stay fixed near the top edge of the window, so their position does not jump when panels expand or collapse.
  • Both the left navigation rail and right auxiliary rail support drag-to-resize and remember the latest desktop layout preference.
  • The desktop title bar now uses a more precise drag region so search, status, user actions, and window controls are less likely to be treated as draggable space.

Fixes

  • Window controls in the compact desktop title bar no longer interfere with nearby interaction zones, making minimize, maximize, and close more reliable.
  • The hidden-brand Electron utility title bar no longer lets the drag overlay block toolbar clicks in the top area.

Notes

  • These release notes continue to record only user-visible application changes, not internal development or build-process adjustments.

v0.3.41 Shell and AI Assistant Polish

Release date: 2026-06-09

v0.3.41 keeps polishing the desktop workspace shell, especially the title bar, left navigation rail, and the AI assistant chat layout where boundary spacing still felt loose.

Refinements

  • Blank space in the top title bar can now drag the desktop window while keeping window buttons, rail toggles, notifications, and avatar controls fully clickable.
  • Left navigation child-route groups now stay collapsed by default, so areas like AI Assistant no longer auto-expand and occupy sidebar space.
  • The left rail now supports narrower expanded and collapsed widths, and the right auxiliary rail can shrink the center workspace further during resize.
  • The default expanded left-rail width is tighter, and the top-right rail toggle now sits closer to the window edge to reduce unused title-bar space.
  • The left navigation panel uses a flatter, lighter surface, with tighter corners and inner padding to reduce sidebar bulk.
  • Bottom global navigation and account spacing in the sidebar are tighter, while the avatar/name block now aligns with the main navigation icon and label columns.
  • Navigation row height and spacing are further compressed, and the utility title bar height is lower.
  • Expanded left-nav groups can now toggle by clicking the main text area, with chevrons aligned more tightly to labels.
  • The avatar, display name, and account menu are now consolidated into the lower-left settings entry, leaving only message and notification status actions in the top title bar.
  • The AI assistant chat page now realigns the secondary sidebar boundary, resize handle, and bottom composer padding so they no longer overlap each other.
  • The AI assistant send button now uses an upward arrow with a tail for clearer action recognition.
