Changelog

March 14, 2026

Added

• Connection check on startup — Cruise validates that Claude Code is reachable and shows a clear error banner with a retry button if not

Improved

• Rate limit countdown now shows the actual clock time when processing will resume (e.g., "until 3:42 PM")
• Rate limit notification sound only plays once, not on every countdown tick
• Machine stays awake during rate limits so the queue can resume automatically without user interaction
• Git auto-commit now captures all file changes, including whitespace-only edits from auto-formatters
• Redesigned task layout — first line displays as a header with status badge and actions in a right-aligned column
• All tasks are now expandable, not just completed ones
• Priority tasks display in their correct execution order in the queue
• Task priority toggle moved to the action buttons row as a flag icon, consistent with the input area
• Task input and edit textareas are now scrollable and resizable

Fixed

• Start/Stop button now updates correctly when Auto-Start is unchecked
