v0.12.0 (2026-05-07)

Import Ecosystem Expansion — 6 AI Tools Covered

This release expands Mantra's supported AI coding tools from 4 to 6, adding the two most widely-used tools missing from the lineup, and delivers a full Import Wizard UI refresh.

GitHub Copilot Chat Import

  • The #1 AI coding assistant with 20M+ users and 90% Fortune 100 penetration
  • Local import: auto-detects VSCode, VSCode Insiders, and JetBrains distributions
  • Remote SSH import: import sessions from remote servers over SSH
  • Multi-distribution disambiguation: when Copilot Chat appears from different IDEs under the same name, the Import Wizard shows a subtitle chip to distinguish sources
  • Live updates: Mantra appends new messages in real-time as Copilot Chat files change

OpenCode (sst) Import

  • The fastest-growing open-source AI coding CLI (@opencodevs/opencode ecosystem)
  • Reads SQLite database (opencode.db) with cross-platform path auto-detection (macOS / Linux / Windows)
  • Live updates via the SQLite incremental polling engine — real-time message append for in-progress sessions
  • Full support for all 7 message part types (text / reasoning / file / tool / patch / step-start / step-finish)

Import Wizard UI Refresh

  • Import Wizard now displays all 7 import sources uniformly, with 3 new tool cards added
  • Each tool has a brand icon and accent color (Copilot Chat blue #0969DA · OpenCode orange #F97316)
  • Tools with multiple IDE variants automatically show a distribution subtitle chip to distinguish sources

Error Monitoring

  • Sentry integration for automatic runtime error capture and reporting
  • Built-in user feedback dialog — submit feedback in one click when something goes wrong

Note on Roo Code: Roo Code has announced it is shutting down. Mantra has accordingly removed its frontend import entry; the backend parser is retained in case the service resumes.


v0.11.8 (2026-04-28)

Interface & Interaction Refresh

This release focuses on the visual and interaction experience of the player interface — restructuring navigation to make mode switching more intuitive and the layout hierarchy cleaner.

Mode Navigation Rail

  • A new vertical Mode Rail on the left edge replaces the compact mode switcher previously embedded in the top bar.
  • All four modes (Analytics / Playback / Compress / Replay) have distinct accent colors; the active mode is highlighted with a colored indicator bar.
  • Common shortcuts (Hub, Skills, Settings) are consolidated in the rail's footer, keeping the top bar uncluttered.

Streamlined Top Bar

  • The top bar is narrower and refocused on breadcrumb navigation, search, and session actions — removing controls that have moved to the Mode Rail.

Per-Mode Visual Polish

  • Playback: Message bubbles now show a role label and reveal timestamps on hover; tool call cards and output blocks received visual refinements.
  • Replay: Controls and panels adopt a unified purple accent palette, making step state and operation type easier to follow.
  • Analytics: Metric cards and charts updated with the new mode color system.
  • Compress: Panel and action element visual consistency improved.
  • Filter bar: Responsive layout in variable-width panels is now more stable.

v0.11.7 (2026-04-28)

Skills Hub Major Upgrade

This release significantly expands Skills Hub capabilities — from daily management to community collaboration.

Tags & Ratings

  • Add tags to Skills for quick filtering and categorization
  • Rate Skills 1–5 stars to track which ones are most valuable to you
  • Full-text search (FTS): search across skill names, descriptions, and tag content

Version History & Snapshots

  • File-system monitoring: automatically create snapshots when Skill files change (500ms debounce)
  • Snapshot timeline: view the complete change history in the Skill detail panel's "Version History" tab, with source badges (import / file change / manual restore)
  • One-click rollback: restore to any historical version; current content is auto-backed up before restore
  • Snapshots with identical hashes are deduplicated to save disk space; up to 50 snapshots retained per Skill

GitHub Repository Bulk Import

  • Enter a public GitHub repository URL to bulk-import all SKILL.md files
  • Shallow clone: end-to-end < 30 seconds for repos with 100+ Skills
  • Supports specifying branch and subpath to import only a subdirectory
  • Upstream subscription tracking: records source repo and commit SHA; click "Check Upstream" in the Skill detail panel to see if updates are available

Unified Conflict Resolution

  • Consistent conflict handling across all sources (tool directory scan / custom directory / GitHub upstream updates)
  • Three-way comparison view: compare Base / Ours / Theirs side-by-side for fully informed decisions
  • Three strategies: Overwrite (adopt upstream), Rename (auto-append -2, -3… suffix), Skip
  • "Apply to remaining conflicts" bulk strategy to reduce repetitive decisions

Skill Identification Improvements

  • Name disambiguation: automatically add suffixes when importing duplicate-named Skills — zero data loss
  • Origin detection: parses .git/config + HEAD when importing from GitHub; card subtitle displays host/owner/repo so same-named Skills from different sources are instantly distinguishable
