Summary
AI summaryUpdates New, opt-in, and Settings across a mixed release.
Full changelog
Toolport can now hold risky tool calls for your approval, and it runs quietly in the background so it's always ready to.
New
- Human-in-the-loop tool approval (opt-in). With "Require human approval" on (Settings), Toolport holds any destructive or untrusted-server tool call, raises a desktop notification, and waits for you to approve or deny it in the app. Fail-closed: if you don't decide in time, the call is denied. Off by default.
- Runs in the tray / menu bar. Closing the window now keeps Toolport running in the background (system tray on Windows, menu bar on macOS) so it can hold calls for approval while you work. The tray tooltip shows how many are waiting; quit explicitly from the tray menu.
- Launch at login (opt-in). Start Toolport hidden in the tray when you sign in (Settings > General).
Changed
- Security notices are tiered by severity, so real threats aren't buried. Risky tool-definition drift (a destructive tool changing, a tool dropping a readOnly/destructive safety annotation, or poisoned content) stays a loud, actionable notice; benign vendor revisions move to a quiet, collapsible "Recent tool changes" history. Dismissals now stick across restarts, and duplicate notices from multiple clients are collapsed.
Fixed
- Cleaned up leftover "Conduit" references (the Teams connect URL placeholder, the "download from releases" link, and the exported setup filename).
Windows (.exe), macOS (.dmg for Apple Silicon and Intel), and Linux (.AppImage / .deb) builds are below. Existing installs update automatically.
