herdr v0.8.2 adds Windows GA, Qwen Code support, remote attach, new config keys for window titles, tab bar status, and pane resize bindings • Adds `ui.window_title` config key to keep the outer terminal window title in sync with the active workspace and host across window managers and tab bars. • Adds `ui.pane_outer_borders` config key to independently show or hide the outside edges of split-pane borders. • Adds `ui.status_indicators = "symbols"` setting to use distinct static shapes for blocked, working, done, idle, and unknown agent states. • Adds `theme.custom.sidebar_bg` config key to give the desktop sidebar its own background color without changing built-in theme defaults. • Adds `theme.custom.selection_bg` config key for a dedicated per-theme cursor color in Navigate-mode selection rows. • Adds optional `keys.move_tab_previous` and `keys.move_tab_next` bindings to reorder the active tab in place, wrapping at either end. • Adds optional `keys.resize_pane_left`, `keys.resize_pane_down`, `keys.resize_pane_up`, and `keys.resize_pane_right` bindings to resize the focused pane in one keystroke without entering resize mode. • Windows clients can now use `herdr --remote` to attach to Herdr servers on Linux and macOS. • Panes can now route right-click gestures to mouse-reporting applications via the pane menu, `herdr pane input`, `pane.input.set`, or the `pane split --right-click pane` launch option. • Adds Qwen Code detection for idle, working, and user-confirmation states, plus optional native session restore. • The desktop tab bar now supports configurable right-aligned status entries for zoom state, hostname, date/time, literal text, and asynchronously refreshed command output. • Copy mode now supports `B`, `E`, and `W` motions over whitespace-delimited big words. • Cursor Agent CLI, MastraCode, Hermes Agent, and Grok CLI integrations now install and run natively on Windows. • Windows support is now generally available through stable releases, using the stable update channel by default. • Headless servers now use a configurable 120×40 virtual terminal (up from 80×24) when no client is attached. • The plugin marketplace now discovers valid manifests at repository roots and subdirectories, groups multiple plugins per repository, and publishes their versions and exact default-branch commits.
