wisp 0.31.1: wisp models uninstall (or /models uninstall in chat). It shows what goes and how much space it frees, then asks you to type the model's name. Ollama's copy goes through Ollama, and the model's settings go with it. github.com/pidster/wisp/rele…
wisp 0.31.0: a second way to install. Alongside Homebrew there's now Wisp.app in a signed, notarised disk image. Drag it to Applications, open it, choose Install, and wisp and wisp-tui land in ~/.local/bin. No admin password. github.com/pidster/wisp/rele…

wisp 0.29.0: wisp-tui's conversation gets a pane of its own. - Long outputs & thinking fold to a summary + last 3 lines - Shift+↑↓ steps through it, ←/→ fold - Ctrl-Y copies a part (OSC 52, works over ssh) - Quit, and it's back in your scrollback github.com/pidster/wisp/rele…

wisp update keeps the app current. It downloads the new disk image and checks its checksum, and that the app inside is signed by wisp's developer and notarised by Apple, before swapping it in whole. Opt in to updates.check and wisp asks GitHub once a day.

Also in 0.31.0: each install now declares where its parts live, and wisp doctor checks them all. wisp models lists each runtime's models by name. Off by default, nothing leaves your Mac until you ask.

wisp 0.28.0: you manage the thread store. - wisp threads lists, shows, deletes, and hands threads between agents (delete and hand are yours alone, never the model's) - /resume switches threads mid-chat - wisp-tui gets a thread picker github.com/pidster/wisp/rele…

wisp 0.27.0: every thread is saved as it goes, and any face can resume it. - An agent's MCP threads survive a reconnect, rebuild, or crash - Every chat is saved, no /save needed - wisp chat --resume opens any thread, an agent's too github.com/pidster/wisp/rele…

Here's a new flavor of prompt injection: using agents to target other agents that have more relaxed guardrails. The trust model from the 90s was not designed for AI. arstechnica.com/security/202…

It would be a shame if this video was shared far and wide. Do you really want these charlatans running the country?! teapaw.org/orlaminihane/status/20…

Would you be interested if JetBrains releases a totally local AI agent, working 100% on your laptop, using our code insight engine and deeply integrated into the IDE? Yes, it will be probably 1 month behind the very recent frontier models, but no token blood bath anymore WDYT?
