0.9.0 RELEASED!!

[acoliver]

Release v0.9.0

There was so much done in this release that the model that usually writes the release notes just couldn't handle it and listed just about everything out rather than categorize etc. The headlines are the sandbox stuff, security stuff, better to-do lists, hooks support, pluggable compression strategies, PDF/image support for all the major providers/models, and experimental LSP support, among much more.

In addition, we now have a tap, so you can finally install with Homebrew.

brew tap vybestack/homebrew-tap
brew update
brew install llxprt-code

You might also want to install jefe while you're there. Jefe lets you manage multiple LLxprt code instances without having 90 terminal tabs open. It also simplifies using sandboxes. It has absolutely revolutionized how I work.

Finally, we now have an updated website see:

• LLxprt Code https://vybestack.dev/llxprt-code.html and the docs: https://vybestack.dev/llxprt-code/docs/
• LLxprt Jefe https://vybestack.dev/jefe.html

Installation

Install or upgrade LLxprt Code using npm:

npm install -g @vybestack/llxprt-code

Or use directly with npx:

npx @vybestack/llxprt-code

What's New

This is an action packed feature release. The headlines:

• Complete overhaul of security keys and auth tokens now stored in the os keystore.
• sandboxing now allows you to control everything from memory to processors with Docker and Podman. It delegates to the proxy to get PATs or OAuth tokens. The llm can't leak your PATs! Claude can't open 10 instances of Vitest and brick your system.
• asynchronous subagents (in process)
• Ast edit, grep, and more.
• experimental lsp server support!
• better and pluggable compression strategies
• hooks support
• greatly improved session continuation and a /continue menu
• Persistent todos and editable todos
• Image and PDF support across the major models and providers (not just Gemini)
• /stats quota display across both OAuth accounts and providers along with PAT-based providers
• Deepseek reasoner support
• Thinking blocks in Codex/openai models
• better anthropic thinking support
• support for all the February models
• core memory (save to system instructions)
• Sync to Gemini-cli 0.23.0

There was a lot more done but you can go look in the release notes for that!
