PandaPaw Version History
PandaPaw Version History
PandaPaw ships continuously — most days bring more than one release. This page tracks what actually changed, version by version, so you can see the pace of development and look up what a recent update fixed.
Check which version you are on with pandapaw --version, and update anytime with pandapaw update --restart — see PandaPaw — Remote Bridge for Claude Code and Codex for install and update details.
Latest releases
v0.1.66 — Aug 5, 2026 Release housekeeping only (rebuild, no functional change).
v0.1.65 — Aug 5, 2026
- Hardened the release pipeline: it now refuses to run with missing configuration instead of silently falling back to placeholder keys.
v0.1.64 — Aug 5, 2026
pandapaw statusnow shows your account pairing state, andpandapaw add-deviceis a quicker way to add another machine.- Fixed self-update failing for non-admin/non-root installs by moving the real binary to a location your user account can always write to.
v0.1.63 — Aug 4, 2026
- Fixed a crash loop on startup when PandaPaw had no projects configured yet.

- Fixed
pandapaw statusreporting every service as stopped on CentOS 7, even when they were running fine.
v0.1.61 — Aug 4, 2026
- Made update downloads more reliable end-to-end, closing a window where a binary could go out before its checksum manifest.
- Fixed background services failing to install on CentOS 7 and similar systems without per-user service support.
v0.1.60 — Aug 4, 2026
- After install, the
pandapawcommand now works right away in your current terminal — no need to open a new one. - Fixed the terminal UI occasionally mistaking Claude Code's own output for a real prompt and pressing Enter on it.
v0.1.59 — Aug 4, 2026
- Reliability fix to the Windows release pipeline's code-signing step (build-side only, no user-facing change).
v0.1.58 — Aug 4, 2026
- Cleaned up console output on Windows — no more garbled boxes — and trimmed noisy log lines during interactive use.
v0.1.57 — Aug 4, 2026
- Fixed
pandapaw --restartsometimes stopping services without bringing them back up. - Fixed garbled Chinese-language error text from Windows scheduled tasks.
v0.1.56 — Aug 4, 2026
pandapaw updatenow also checks and installs the PandaCode engine, even when everything else was already current.- Question cards from Claude Code now show their introductory text, not just the answer choices.
v0.1.55 — Aug 4, 2026
- You can now send a follow-up message mid-task without it getting lost, and manually stopping a task now force-stops tools that are still running.
v0.1.54 — Aug 4, 2026
- The installer now picks the fastest way to download Node.js automatically (tries the official source, falls back to a mirror) — noticeably faster and more reliable installs in some regions.
v0.1.53 — Aug 4, 2026
- Internal cleanup of the rules/skills/memory sync pipeline (retired an older sync path). No user-facing behavior change.
v0.1.52 — Aug 3, 2026 Release housekeeping only (rebuild, no functional change).
v0.1.51 — Aug 3, 2026
- Rules, skills, and memory now sync between your machines over a live push channel instead of periodic polling — changes propagate faster.
- Memory now syncs through its own history, kept separate from your project's.
- Fixed Codex not showing images returned by tools inline.
v0.1.50 — Aug 1, 2026
- Fixed device-mesh networking status detection failing on machines where it wasn't installed in the default location.
v0.1.49 — Aug 1, 2026
- Faster, more reliable update downloads on Windows via an accelerated transfer path.
v0.1.48 — Aug 1, 2026
- Fixed a Windows bug where restarting the device-mesh networking service could leave it stopped entirely instead of coming back up.
v0.1.47 — Aug 1, 2026
pandapaw updatenow also updates the device-mesh networking component, and--restartrestarts it too.
v0.1.46 — Aug 1, 2026
- Faster update downloads worldwide via a global CDN acceleration endpoint.
v0.1.45 — Aug 1, 2026
- Local edits to rules/skills/memory files are now picked up and synced noticeably faster.
v0.1.44 — Aug 1, 2026
- Fixed a bug where a single corrupted sync entry could stop the whole rules/skills/memory sync system — it now skips just that entry and keeps going.
v0.1.43 — Aug 1, 2026
pandapaw statusnow surfaces sync items that are stuck after repeated failures instead of failing silently.- A sync problem with one rule or skill file no longer blocks all the others from applying.

Before version numbers (May – July 2026)
Before July 24, 2026, PandaPaw didn't track individual release versions — it was under active initial development, going from an early prototype to the architecture it has today: the PandaCode engine (Claude Code-compatible, then extended to work with OpenAI-format backends), Codex integration, the account-based install/update/pairing system, remote computer-use control, and device-mesh networking. We don't have a reliable per-build breakdown for this period, so we're not listing individual changes here rather than guessing.
