Changelog

## What's New - Conversational AI for time tracking — natural-language chat to query and edit your timeline (e.g. "log 2 hours on Acme yesterday", "show invoices from last month") - Claude Desktop (Agent Mode) ingestion — captures sessions from Anthropic's Claude Desktop app alongside Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and the rest - Custom roles management — owners can define and assign per-organization roles in Settings → Roles ## Improvements - Cmd+Q on macOS properly cleans up the server before quitting - Main window no longer steals focus when the server restarts - Hub session is more resilient — survives transient 401s instead of logging out on the first one - Better Auth stack updated to 1.6.x with refreshed AI SDK, zod, drizzle, and email tooling - Invoice rendering: tighter margins, annotation dialog now auto-closes after save - Build pipeline now detects stale server output before a release ships ## Bug Fixes - Fixed silent crashes that killed the app every few minutes — the health poller was too aggressive and is now debounced - Fixed orphan server processes hanging around after a restart - Fixed Windows installer size showing as 73 bytes instead of the actual ~272 MB - Fixed migration crash loop on first launch after upgrade - Fixed CLI failing on first run after `npm install -g @scribe.cool/cli` - Fixed several invoice template-config edge cases (SSRF risk, preview drift, oversized inputs)

This is a pre-release build available to beta testers. ## What's New - **Consolidated timeline view.** The canvas renderer is now the default timeline — interactive pan/zoom with the familiar Heatmap and Activity toggles. The old duplicate "Canvas Timeline" button is gone, the view is simply "Timeline" now. - **Custom roles in Settings.** Create per-org roles with fine-grained permissions (Timeline, Projects, Invoices). Built-in owner/admin/member roles stay protected. Owner-only. ## Improvements - **Faster first-click-to-details on the timeline.** Clicking a bar at wide zoom now narrows the date range to that bucket; another click opens the event detail dialog with arrow-key navigation through all events in the range. - **Better Auth upgrade.** Stack bumped to 1.6.8 across web + desktop. More reliable session handling and Stripe flow. - **Claude Desktop (Agent Mode) ingestion.** Scan root now accepts `claude_desktop` type for Anthropic Claude Desktop Local Agent Mode sessions. - **AI chat with write tools.** New `/chat` page can create timeline entries via natural language ("Log 90 minutes on Scribe"). ## Bug Fixes - **CLI install is no longer broken.** `bun add -g @scribe.cool/cli@latest` now installs a working CLI (previous npm version crashed on first `scribe init` with a missing-migrations error). - **Settings → Roles now works.** Role create/edit/delete was returning 403 even for owners. Fixed across all existing organizations. - **Windows installer size reporting.** `staging-windows.json` now reports the actual MSI size instead of 73 bytes. - **No more cyan outline ghosts.** Removed a stray focus-ring on every project row from the old Recharts/HeatBar path. ## Known issues (filed, non-blocking) - Timeline canvas may show uniform gaps at some zoom levels (OPL-2001) - Empty date range renders canvas at default 300×150 instead of an empty-state message (OPL-2004) - Ghost-dot click-to-add-entry from the old scatter view is not yet restored on canvas (OPL-2006) - Per-event hover tooltip is currently bucket-only (OPL-2005)

This is a pre-release build available to beta testers. ## What's New - Claude Desktop (Agent Mode) ingestion — Claude's local agent-mode sessions now show up on the timeline alongside Claude Code, Cursor, and the rest. - Log time via chat — Tell the AI assistant "Log 90 minutes on Project X" and it creates the timeline entry for you. - Scribe AI on the web hub — The hub now has a /chat page with the same AI assistant available on desktop, plus an "Ask AI" entry in the command palette. - Custom roles on the web hub — Organization owners can define named roles (Editor, Billing Admin, etc.) with their own permission sets in Settings → Roles & Permissions. - Inline member role changes — Owners promote or demote team members from the Team page dropdown without leaving the list. ## Improvements - Better Auth, AI SDK, Next.js, Drizzle, zod, and the transactional email library all bumped to their latest stable versions. ## Bug Fixes - Windows installer on the v0.0.76 staging release was shipping a 73-byte stub instead of the real MSI — Windows users now get the full ~272MB installer.

This is a pre-release build available to beta testers. ## Bug Fixes - Fixed the app silently closing itself after hitting a database state it couldn't recover from. The database now self-heals on launch instead of entering an endless quit-and-restart loop. Affects users on v0.0.75 who saw the app "disappear" with no error. - Fixed `scribe` CLI commands (project, client, invoice) failing with "Can't find meta/_journal.json" when installed globally via `bun add -g @scribe.cool/cli`.

This is a pre-release build available to beta testers. ## Improvements - Invoice PDF generation now uses the shared core renderer (same output, single source of truth between desktop and web) - Invoice template editor is now hardened against abuse: logos must be proper image data URIs, bounded at 500KB, and unknown fields are rejected outright - Build tooling now correctly detects stale cached builds so releases always ship the latest code

This is a pre-release build available to beta testers. ## Bug Fixes - Fixed the app window repeatedly stealing focus from other applications - Fixed Cmd+Q not fully quitting the app (server and background tasks now stop properly) - Fixed orphaned server processes causing restart loops after updates - Fixed hub connection being lost after a single temporary network hiccup - Fixed admin role not propagating correctly from hub auth - Fixed project auto-assignment prioritizing git remote over name match - Fixed invoice share links on desktop - Fixed sending invoices via email ## Improvements - Replaced hand-rolled admin system with Better Auth admin plugin - Streamlined desktop sync engine (1116 → ~80 lines) - Added logo support and page overflow handling to invoice PDF - Updated dependencies (Better Auth 1.5.6, Next.js 16.2.2, TypeScript 6.0.2) - Version management now tracks the actual release version in package.json
