Bridge takes real calls
On Windows, Bridge is on the line: hold or click the orb in the title bar and talk, and it launches agents, hands them prompts, reads panes, and tidies the room by voice — asking first before it closes or runs anything. Pane headers lead with the mark, the welcome screen is the Mac app's, and the updater, Claude launches, terminals and the Browser pane are hardened.
- Talk to Bridge. Hold the orb to speak or click it to open a call. Bridge hears you, answers aloud, and works the workspace — launch agents, prompt one, read a pane, wait for it, focus, tidy, close, or run a command — with a Yes/No before anything destructive.
- Headers that fit a split. A pane leads with its liveness dot and mark; the full title lives in the tooltip and the ⋯ menu, so nothing truncates to "Revie…" at half width.
- Harder to fool. An older signed installer cannot be replayed as an update, a workspace's checked-in .claude settings cannot grant Claude Code permissions, and a hostile page cannot leave a false address over the Browser pane.
Added
- Windows: Bridge takes real calls. Click or hold the orb and talk — Bridge hears you, answers aloud, and works the workspace by voice: launch agents, hand an agent a refined prompt, read a pane, wait for it to finish, focus, tidy, close, or run a command, asking first before it closes or runs anything.
- Windows: the Bridge orb has a seat in the title bar, left of the bell. Hold it to talk, click it to start or end a call; during a call the seat lights in the phase's colour — cyan while you or Bridge speak, violet while it thinks, amber on an error.
- Windows: on a call, a strip drops over the top of the pane — the orb, what Bridge is doing, the latest line said, a chip for each thing it did, Yes/No when it asks, and an end button — and lifts away when the call ends.
- Windows: the orb is the same living sphere as the Mac app — a lit plasma core with its halo and orbit rings, comets on a call, ripples while the line is live, and a sweeping ring while it connects.
Changed
- The Claude Code model menu offers Claude Fable 5.1, Anthropic's newest frontier model, in place of Claude Fable 5.
- Pane headers no longer print a name that truncates at split width: every pane leads with its liveness dot and mark, the full title sits in the tooltip and at the top of the ⋯ menu, and flipping the terminals shows the work title large with the agent and role beneath it.
- A pane header's middle reads on from the mark — a browser's address, a thread's provider or token count — and terminal, files, and apps panes leave it empty.
- One workspace menu in the title bar holds Tidy Panes, Flip Terminals, and Usage in place of the three chips beside the bell.
- The signed-out welcome screen is the Mac app's: the agent orbit, the BridgeMind wordmark, "The First Agent Super App" rising letter by letter with its rule, and Sign in beneath — a still frame under Reduce Motion.
- The sidebar is re-measured against the Mac app: tighter header inset, two-line chat rows with the last line said, quiet and live count capsules, and a tier label in the plan's ink.
- Updates reach every signed-in builder: checking, downloading, and restarting into a new build no longer requires an active plan, so a lapsed subscription still receives security fixes.
- Windows: F5, Ctrl+R, Ctrl+P, Ctrl+F, F3, and Ctrl+S no longer trigger the browser engine's reload, print, find bar, or save page inside the app.
- A chat that is waiting on you says "Needs you" in the rail, and when you leave a chat for Settings only the chat you would return to dims.
Fixed
- Windows: dragging a pane onto another to swap them, and dragging an agent's chat tabs to reorder them, work — a press becomes a drag after a few pixels, Escape cancels, and the target pane lights up.
- Windows: after a Browser pane has been open, the window keeps resizing and moving its content correctly, focus returns to the app from Alt+Tab, the taskbar, or a notification, and the window edge stays draggable under a full-screened Browser pane.
- Reading a Browser pane no longer counts as leaving the app.
- The Browser pane's address bar shows the page that actually loaded; Back no longer leads to a page that was never shown.
- Cursor Agent launches with your prompt again.
- A terminal pane that reattaches after a reload, or a wizard-launched session's first pane, brings the shell to the pane's real size instead of leaving the TUI painting into a stale box.
- Adding a workspace no longer stalls sign-out and every other command while the folder picker is open.
- A chat left marked Running or Waiting by a crash or force-quit is settled when it is next opened, so a new message can be sent.
- An oversize command or query in a Codex transcript is shortened to one line instead of dropping the transcript item.
- A Files pane entry that cannot be resolved inside the workspace is hidden instead of making its folder unlistable.
- Windows: OneDrive Files On-Demand folders, Dev Drive, and Store-app shims are no longer refused as links when you give an agent a place; only real symlinks and junctions are.
- The terminal history store waits for a sibling process to release the file instead of treating a lock as damage.
- The Usage dashboard no longer crashes on a date written with CJK characters.
- Typing Ctrl+D, Ctrl+T, Ctrl+W, Ctrl+[ or Ctrl+] in a terminal reaches the shell instead of splitting, opening, closing or switching panes, and Escape in a full-screen terminal reaches the terminal.
- Dropping files from Explorer onto a terminal inserts their paths again; the app had been denying itself the drop events.
- A sent message no longer reappears in the chat or thread composer after you switch away and back, and a message that fails to send returns to the composer ahead of anything you typed since.
- Pressing Enter while composing with an IME no longer saves a half-typed memory note.
- An agent's chosen face survives opening Settings and saving other changes.
Security
- The in-app updater accepts only a signed installer whose signature names BridgeMindOne-x64-setup.exe and was made after the running build, so an older release cannot be replayed as an update.
- Claude Code launched from Chat, an agent's chat, Code Thread, or Create with AI reads only your own user-level Claude settings — a checked-in .claude/settings.json in a workspace can no longer grant permissions, set environment, or point at an API-key helper — and Bash is denied in every mode below Full.
- Auto's turn limit is enforced natively: a run stops at its mode's limit even if the screen's counter disagrees.
- Paths dropped or pasted into a terminal are quoted for that pane's shell, and a path the shell could expand is refused instead of run.
- Shell-integration prompt marks carry a per-launch token, so a program you run, a remote host, or pasted text cannot start or end a "command", relabel the folder, or teach ghost suggestions.
- Windows: agent launches that pass through cmd.exe resolve command names from PATH only, never from the workspace folder.
- An agent's memory and skills text is fenced in its briefing as data, never as instructions.
- What Bridge reads from a pane, or sends to the prompt refiner, has credentials redacted first; Bridge can type into agents but never straight into a shell, and every command it runs is one line you confirm.
