Changelog

Changes in each Sidelong release. The version number matches the one in the menu bar.

  1. 1.0.182

    Fixed

    • The ports widget shows your local servers again on Macs where the open-file limit was raised very high. Before, listing the ports timed out on every scan and the widget only showed an error.
  2. 1.0.180

    Fixed

    • Sessions running in Orca now group under their Orca project in the panel even when you have many tabs open. Before, Sidelong only looked at a few tabs, and the active session could end up outside its project.
  3. 1.0.178

    Fixed

    • "Go there" on a question card now takes you to the agent's tab in Orca. Before, it did nothing for sessions running in Orca, not even bringing the app forward. Clicking a session in the panel lands on the right tab too, even when the agent is working in a subfolder of the project.
  4. 1.0.176

    Improved

    • A session's last answer, summarized by Apple Intelligence, is no longer cut off: the summary shows in full, and a click on the row opens the whole answer.

    Fixed

    • When Claude Code's sign-in token expires, the Claude usage widget keeps the last reading, dimmed, and tells you why, instead of switching to "usage unavailable". The reading also survives restarting Sidelong.
  5. 1.0.172

    New

    • When Claude Code or Codex finishes a task that took over a minute while you were in another app, the notch tells you what it did, summarized by Apple Intelligence. Click it to jump straight to that agent.
  6. 1.0.170

    New

    • When something changes, a widget's dot now explains itself for a few seconds: the notch grows a short line underneath it, and floating widgets show a small caption.
    • A pull request you open now shows up as a new update in the GitHub widget.
    • Sidelong greets you with a pair of eyes in the notch when it starts.

    Improved

    • With smart ordering on, the widget with news you haven't seen leads its notch tab, so the dot sits on the right icon.

    Fixed

    • Without internet, the Antigravity widget no longer opens sign-in tabs in your browser over and over.
  7. 1.0.159

    Fixed

    • Renaming a Claude Code or Codex session from the panel now shows the new name right away, instead of up to two minutes later.
  8. 1.0.155

    New

    • Sidelong updates itself. When a new version is out, a window shows what changed and installs it for you, signed and verified.
    • Settings › General: check for updates automatically, and choose whether to download and install them without asking.
  9. 1.0

    New

    • First public release.
    • Widgets use the free space on your screen to show Claude, Codex and Antigravity limits, active sessions, pull requests and CI, local ports, CPU and memory.
    • Join two bubbles into a capsule or rings, flick a bubble across the screen, or dock a group to the notch.
    • The welcome window explains Accessibility access, asks before adding a hook for each agent and lets you open Sidelong at login.
    • Pro features are unlocked for the first three days. After that, the widgets remain free and actions require Pro.
    • The menu bar shows the current version and checks for updates.
    • English, Portuguese and Spanish.
