 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [0.12.0] - 2026-10-18
+
+### Added
+
+- **Settings → Agents → Re-check** looks for harnesses and models again, on this computer and on every online machine. Install a CLI, sign in or add a provider (say a new opencode provider), come back to wisp and click it: the list, the model counts and the launcher's harness picker update without restarting wisp, and a toast says what changed ("opencode +12 models", "Codex found"). Each harness now shows how many models it has, and one that isn't installed says to install its CLI and sign in. Before, wisp kept the first detection until it restarted. API: `POST /api/agents/recheck`, or `GET /api/agents?fresh=1` for this computer only.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The calm feed (nothing needs you) looks tidier. **Nothing needs you** gets a green dot and lines up with the **Done** and **Archived** headings, and folded groups now sit close together instead of a full section gap apart. Folded headings highlight on hover so they read as buttons.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- In **Settings → Machines**, the add/edit machine form lays out properly again: labels sit left above their fields, and the **SSH host** and **Name** inputs are full height instead of squashed and centred. The Settings row style was leaking into it.
+
+## [0.11.0] - 2026-10-18
+
+### Added
+
+- Machines shows **Update to X** next to the version when a connected machine runs an older wisp than this computer. One click restarts wisp there as this version (you're asked first if agents are working on it). Before, reconnecting kept the old wisp running, and you had to find **Restart wisp there** in the ⋯ menu. Machines with a custom start command don't show it, because that command decides the version. Machines carry it as `outdated: "<version>"`.
+
+### Changed
+
+- The app responds right away instead of waiting for the server. A new task clears the prompt box and shows up in **Working** as a "Starting up" card while wisp makes its worktree. A follow-up or an answer clears the composer and moves the card to **Working** with your message as the live turn. **Mark done**, **Reopen**, **Archive**, **Delete**, **Stop**, **Rerun**, recipe runs and **Keep this** in Compare also act immediately. If the server refuses, the change is undone, your text and attachments come back, and an error toast says why.
+- The web app uses the same icon as the site and the desktop app (the glowing orb on a dark tile) for its browser tab, home-screen shortcut and notifications.
+- The launcher's **Run on** button sits right after the attach button, so the bar reads attachments, where it runs, then mode, harness, subagents and worktree.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- The launcher's harness picker now lists the harnesses installed on the places picked under **Run on**, not the ones on this computer. Any picked place that has a harness makes it pickable (a union), with its models taken from a place that has it; a harness missing on some of them says **Not on <machine>**, and launching names the place it's missing on. Before, running only on a machine still offered Claude when only this computer had it, and hid a harness only the machine had. Changing the places (or a machine coming online) moves the pick to an installed harness if the current one isn't there. Machines now report each harness's models, thinking levels and whether it can lead subagents.
