This release is all about teamwork and stability. It introduces a new "client-server" setup, which means the app can run as a central hub that multiple people (or "clients") can connect to at the same time. This is great for developers collaborating on the same code, as they can now share a single workspace, see what each other is doing, and get smarter alerts without stepping on each other's toes.
What's new
- Shared workspaces: Multiple users can now connect to the same workspace (your project folder) at the same time. The app tracks who is looking at what and shares those updates live with everyone.
- Smarter notifications: You can now get a bell sound or visual alert when a task finishes. This works even if you are controlling the app remotely through an SSH connection (a secure way to control a computer over the internet).
- Tool previews: If the app tries to use a tool but gets denied permission, it will now show you a "diff view"βa side-by-side comparison of what the tool *would* have changed.
- Auto-closing prompts: If two people are connected and one approves a permission prompt, the prompt automatically closes for the other person.
Improvements
- Data safety locks: The app now refuses to open a data folder if another instance of Crush is already using it. This prevents two programs from trying to write to the same file at the exact same time, which can corrupt data.
- Live config updates: If someone changes the app's settings, those changes are instantly broadcast to everyone else connected to the server.
- Better visibility: The server now reports exactly how many clients are currently watching a session and whether a task is still in progress.
Fixes
- AI Copilot models: Fixed an issue where certain AI models (like GPT 5.4 and 5.5) stopped working. They now correctly use the required "Responses API" to function again.
- AWS Bedrock Europe: Fixed bugs that prevented the app from loading your AWS login credentials properly, specifically for users connecting to the European servers.
- Server crashes: Fixed a "panic" (a sudden crash) that happened when a user canceled an event subscription. Also, if one user cancels a task, it no longer sends a "500 error" (a server crash message) to the other connected users.
- Permission glitches: Made permission checks "idempotent"βmeaning no matter how many times the system asks or how many clients are connected, the permission result stays exactly the same.
- Windows cleanup: Fixed an issue where Windows computers couldn't clean up temporary files after tests finished running.
