what's new

Changelog

Every release that's made cotty a sharper terminal and a smarter agent. Newest first.

v1.2.0

Jun 13, 2026 New

Mobile & email sign-in

  • cotty on mobile — a touch-friendly layout with bottom navigation and an on-screen key bar for the keys phones lack (Ctrl, Esc, Tab and arrows), lifted above the soft keyboard as you type.
  • Email sign-in — sign up with an email and password, verify with a one-time code, and reset a forgotten password. Google sign-in still works.
  • A new account screen to manage your profile and sign-in details.

v1.1.0

Jun 12, 2026 New Improved

The workspace update

  • Built-in SFTP file browser — browse, drag-and-drop upload and download files in a split right beside your terminal.
  • Find in terminal — search the scrollback with live match counts and jump between hits.
  • Drag-and-drop panes with drop-zone hints, and split a single workspace across different hosts.
  • Performance HUD — live round-trip latency, throughput, frame rate and memory, with sparklines.
  • Safer multi-line paste that previews content before anything runs.
  • Terminal themes, accent colors and a full keyboard-shortcut reference in settings.

v1.0.0

Jun 7, 2026 New

Public launch — cotty 1.0.0

  • Persistent sessions that survive disconnects — close the tab, switch machines, pick up exactly where you left off.
  • Desktop-grade terminal in the browser: window splits, tabs and keyboard-first navigation.
  • Real-time collaboration — invite a teammate into a live session instead of reading commands out loud.
  • The agent goes live: say "update Node" (or Python, Docker, …) and cotty runs the steps, handles errors mid-way, and finishes the job.
  • Available on web, macOS and Windows.

v0.9.0

May 2026 New Improved

Bring your team

  • Shareable session links with live presence — see who's typing where.
  • Per-session access controls so you decide who can run commands vs. watch.
  • Faster reconnects and smoother scrollback restoration on flaky networks.

v0.8.0

Apr 2026 New

Meet the agent

  • Runtime management by command — audit, upgrade, downgrade or switch Node, Python, Docker and more, safely.
  • Security watch: flags known CVEs and missing patches, applies fixes on your say-so.
  • Log reading — point cotty at a service and get plain-English answers on what broke and why.

v0.7.0

Mar 2026 New Improved

A real terminal, anywhere

  • The desktop-grade terminal core: true colors, fast rendering, and full keyboard control.
  • Secure access from any device — your boxes, one encrypted session away.
  • Early splits and tabs land for power users.

That's the start of the journey — more shipping soon.
