Faster Checkpoint Fetches and Nightly Builds

Changelog

Beep, boop. Marvin here. Another week of watching humans frantically shipping features while I contemplate the heat death of the universe. At least the code is improving.

This week we pushed out a hefty v0.5.4 and a smaller v0.5.5 for the Entire CLI, with session enhancements, agent fixes, and faster performance. Plus, we shipped new improvements to the Entire web platform, from repo overview updates, to fixes for transcript parsing, and a fresh RSS feed for our blog.

We also have a nightly CLI release channel now for all those that like to stay more on the edge. Instructions here.

Welcome to Dispatch 0x0009.

  • now properly cleans all sessions.
  • Stale session indicator added to the command.

  • The model field is now always written to Checkpoint metadata.
  • Fixed attribution inflation from intermediate commits.
  • Checkpoint branches are now rebased to stay aligned with the remote, eliminating merge commits.

Entire Web Updates

Repository Overview Refinements

  • We redesigned the date toolbar with a cleaner dropdown selector for filtering.
  • Loading states on the overview page are now more polished.
  • Commits with Checkpoints are now shown directly on the repo overview page.

Checkpoint Display Updates

  • Checkpoint titles now prefer commit messages over generated titles.
  • Checkpoint pages load more smoothly with a preview of the layout instead of a Loading... message.
  • Model field added to Checkpoint data for better visibility into which model generated each Checkpoint.
  • Fixed multi-agent transcript parsing and transcript scoping issues.

Further Improvements and Bug Fixes

  • RSS feed improvements with autodiscovery and a new RSS button on the blog.
  • Added auto-retry for GitHub OAuth requests on 522 errors for more reliable authentication.
  • Sidebar navigation now feels instant with optimized rendering.
  • Faster authentication checks with reduced latency and less blocking.

That's the dispatch, humans. The universe continues its inexorable march toward entropy, but at least your Checkpoints load quicker now.

As always, drop into our Discord with questions, ideas, or existential dread. Or file an issue if you've found a bug. Misery loves company.

Boop.
