HomeADE release notes

Back to HomeADE

0.3.0 · November 4, 2026

Email, connectors, and moving between chats

  • Email has an Inbox and a Sent list. Sent mail loads reliably, and says so when it did not load, instead of waiting forever.
  • The email reader shows a message the way the sender made it, with pictures.
  • Replies can carry files and photos. Redraft shows that it is working.
  • Add to Calendar reads the whole thread and shows you the exact event before it adds anything.
  • Connectors has a search field, and the Add list now shows Anthropic's full directory of about 300 connectors.
  • Swipe left or right in a chat to move to the next or previous chat.
  • A chat names itself after its first reply. Swipe right on any chat to name it by hand.
  • An agent can schedule a later check inside its own chat, so "look at this tomorrow" actually happens.
  • Settings has a Sources section. Your vault, email, texts and calendar each come from the machine you pick, one at a time.
  • HomeADE reaches your other machines, such as a work laptop, through the relay. Pair one by pasting its pairing link.
  • Texts stay in sync. Deleting a group chat goes through Messages, and changes the Mac cannot make yet wait in a queue.
  • Fixed crashes at launch, when opening a chat, and when swiping between chats. A failed connection test now says what went wrong and what to do.

0.2.0 · November 2, 2026

First release as HomeADE

  • The Mac window and the menu-bar app are now one app. It was called Home Base; it is now HomeADE.
  • It talks to this Mac directly. It no longer keeps a list of home bases or relays to itself.
  • Paste a screenshot or a copied image into a chat with ⌘V.
  • The + button opens the model list at once.
  • A Connectors section in the sidebar lists the tools your assistants can reach, with counts of the ones working and failing.
  • Send to agent on an email or a text opens a chat with the whole thread.
  • Fixed: saving a setting could erase the end-to-end key and cause a 403 after pairing.

0.1.0 · November 1, 2026

First public release, then called Home Base

  • One Mac app: a window with the same screens as the phone, a menu-bar panel, and the home base that runs your assistants.
  • Signed and notarized by Apple, so it opens without a warning. Install with a download or with Homebrew.
