Croco v1.11.1

New

• Launch on startup — Settings → Behaviour now has a toggle to launch Croco automatically when you log in (backed by the OS itself: Windows registry, macOS LaunchAgent, or a Linux autostart entry).

Fixed

• "Last commit" is now accurate everywhere. It used to only update when you committed through Croco's own commit UI — commits made via a terminal or another IDE now show up too, across Project Detail, Favourites, and the Projects list (including "sort by Last Commit").
• Completed todos can no longer be un-checked from a project's Todos tab. The existing "locked 6 days after completion" protection on the main Todo page now applies there too, closing a way to bypass it.
• Dashboard layout: Todos and Notes widgets now appear above Recent Commits.
• LeetCode easter egg now opens in your system browser instead of an embedded window (the site blocks embedded browsers).
• Updater now matches the macOS download by CPU architecture (Apple Silicon vs. Intel) instead of possibly offering the wrong build.

Build / packaging

• Fixed a macOS and Linux compile failure — drag_and_drop() is a Windows-only method in Tauri's API and was being called unconditionally, breaking the cross-platform build.
• Fixed Linux packaging: corrected the tray-icon library dependency name and added the FUSE package AppImage bundling needs.

What's New

Git

• Selective staging — stage or unstage individual changed files instead of always staging everything on commit
• Inline diff viewer — click any changed file in the Git panel to see a colorized diff without leaving the app

Favourites

• Drag-to-reorder now actually persists across restarts (previously reset every time)

Cross-platform

• Being worked on right now, You will get to see this probably in the next update.
• macOS and Linux builds are now produced alongside Windows (DMG/AppImage/deb) — early support, not yet as battle-tested as Windows
• Linux auto-update now silently replaces the running AppImage and relaunches
• macOS auto-update downloads and mounts the new version; drag it to Applications to finish, same as a first install
• Fixed a bug where stopping a running dev command on macOS/Linux could leave child processes (e.g. a node process spawned by npm run dev) running in the background

Polish & fixes

• Keyboard shortcuts now display correctly for your OS (Ctrl on Windows/Linux, ⌘ on macOS)
• Performance: fixed unnecessary re-renders across Projects, Todos, Notes, and the sidebar
• Cleaned up in-app browser window drag-and-drop handling

Docs

• README no longer references the AI Assistant / Skills & Automations features, which were removed in a previous release

Patch Notes

Found and fixed a bug which dint let the users reorder things in the application. Easter Egg: Leet Code fix.

Release Notes

• Removed all AI features from the application for a fresh remodel
• Bug Fixes

All the AI features are gonna be back in a new update after every bugs associated with it is fixed.

Bug Fixes

Croco v1.8.0

New

• Todo priorities are now fully customizable. Add, rename, recolor, reorder, and delete priorities from the new Priority Manager (⚙ next to the priority filter tabs on the Todo page). Your existing High/Medium/Low todos keep working as-is — deleting a priority safely reassigns its todos instead of orphaning them.
• New Appearance "Style" setting, independent of Theme — Theme picks colors, Style now picks the whole look-and-feel. Find it in Settings → Appearance:
  • Default — the current look, unchanged.
  • Apple — a liquid-glass style: translucent frosted-black panels, real backdrop blur, pill-shaped buttons, and spring-y motion.
  • Pasta Galaxy — coming soon.
• Patterns page: a second streak. Alongside your commit streak, there's now an App Login Streak that tracks days you've opened Croco — it stays alive even on days you don't push code.
• Archived projects dropdown. The Projects "All" tab now has a collapsible "Archived" section at the bottom, so you don't have to switch tabs to find them.

Improved

• Commit stats on the Patterns page are scanned straight from each tracked project's real git log, not just commits made through Croco — and now auto-refresh every few minutes instead of only once.

Known limitations

• The Apple style uses in-app blur/translucency, not native OS window transparency.
• The quick "add todo" shortcut on a project's own detail page still only offers the three built-in priorities (High/Medium/Low), not your custom ones — a fix for this is planned.

v1.5.0

AI, overhauled

• Direct-API (BYOK) chat for Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, and Ollama — alongside the existing CLI-tool support
• 6 selectable chat modes, a new widget-shaped AI dashboard, and image/text-file chat attachments
• "Generate Context" button writes a reusable project overview that's automatically included in every future chat
• Skills & Automations: define reusable AI personas (Skills) and bind them to triggers — manual, scheduled, or event-based — that can create notes/todos, commit to git, or run project scripts. Confirm-before-execute by default, works even while the app sits in the tray. Skills can be used directly in live chat, and can even be auto-generated by asking the AI to review your own conversation history.
• Auto-detects and offers to configure Claude Code CLI on first launch
• "Login with Claude" button — Pro/Max/Team subscribers can authenticate without an API key
• Fixed AI messages sometimes appearing duplicated, and responses now render as real formatted markdown instead of raw asterisks/dashes

Obsidian vault sync

• One-way sync of your notes into an Obsidian vault as markdown files with YAML frontmatter, organized by project
• Renaming a note updates its vault file in place — no duplicates
• New "Obsidian" section in Settings with a vault picker and a "Sync Now" backfill button

New "Patterns" page — your work habits, visible

• Commit streaks, commit rhythm by hour/day, todo completion rate, note-taking rhythm, and which projects are getting attention vs. going quiet — all computed locally from your own activity history

Proactive suggestions

• A "Suggestions" card on the Dashboard nudges you about things worth knowing — a commit streak about to break, overdue todos, a project gone quiet, a growing high-priority backlog
• Dismissable per-item with a 3-day snooze

Configurable AI Dashboard

• Show/hide and reorder the AI Dashboard's widgets via a new "Customize" mode — drag to reorder, click to hide, persists across restarts

Also

• Ideas moved out of the permanent sidebar onto the Projects topbar (still reachable via Ctrl+K)
• A small Ctrl+K easter egg

More optimizations and bug fixes.
