v0.1.0-beta.12

Released: December 2, 2025

🎉 What's New

System Tray Support

Kunobi now lives in your system tray for quick access and improved workflow.

Minimize to tray when closing the main window instead of fully exiting
Access key actions directly from the tray menu: show/hide window, check for updates, open settings, or quit
Platform-specific icons for macOS, Windows, and Linux
Kunobi stays ready in the background for instant access

How it helps: You can now keep Kunobi running in the background without cluttering your taskbar. Quick access to common actions from the system tray means you can check cluster status or open settings without first bringing up the main window.

A new custom titlebar enhances the desktop experience with better platform integration.

Native look and feel on macOS with transparent titlebar
Theme toggle and shortcuts accessible directly from the titlebar
Cleaner window appearance across all platforms

Automatic connection when selecting a cluster

How it helps: No more navigating away from your current view to switch clusters. The status bar selector lets you change clusters instantly while staying focused on your work.
