Project records

• Changelog — release and engineering-checkpoint history.
• Development Changes — source commits, pull requests, and the documentation synchronized with them.
• Repository README — build, install, usage, and public download information.

Current status

• Latest public release: v1.2.0.
• Current prerelease: v1.3.0-alpha1 — Command Timeline alpha, for local testing. Marked as a GitHub prerelease, so it does not replace the stable download.
• Last engineering checkpoint: v1.2.4, Command Timeline Phase 4.
• v1.2.1 through v1.2.4 are engineering checkpoints, not public GitHub Releases. The stable /releases/latest download remains v1.2.0.

Command Timeline Phase 4 completes the in-memory feature surface: pane-local search over each pane's bounded command text, the commandTimeline.enabled and commandTimeline.historyLimit settings, trustworthy shell-degradation states, and bounded history with oldest-first eviction. Search is literal and case-insensitive, never reads command output, and is never persisted. There is still no persistent history, no output cache, and no telemetry.

Feature guides

• Command Timeline — per-pane command list, keyboard reference, and privacy limits.
