🚀 CodeBuddy Code v2.79.0 Release ​

✨ New Features ​

Daemon Mode & Background Sessions ​

Added Daemon process support, allowing you to manage background-running CLI instances via daemon start/stop/status/restart commands. Also supports the --bg flag to launch tasks in the background, with ps/logs/attach/kill commands for full lifecycle management of background tasks.

Web UI Workers & Log Management ​

The Web UI now includes a Workers page for visual management of all Worker processes and Daemons, supporting start, stop, and terminate operations. Also added a standalone log viewer supporting 4 log types (telemetry/process/debug/conversation) switching, keyword search, and syntax highlighting.

System Monitoring View ​

The Web UI now includes a Metrics page displaying system CPU, memory, and disk usage overview, as well as per-instance process-level resource metrics (RSS, Heap, uptime), with 8-second auto-polling refresh to help you stay on top of resource status at all times.

Editor Experience Major Upgrade ​

  • Tab Enhancements: Support drag-to-reorder, pinned tabs (Pin), overflow scroll arrows, and an enhanced context menu (copy path, reveal in file tree, close to the right, close saved)
  • Breadcrumb Navigation: File path hierarchy displayed at the top of the editor; click to quickly switch between sibling files
  • Quick Open: Support Cmd+P / Ctrl+P to quickly search and open files
  • File Preview: Support image preview (zoom/drag/checkerboard background), Markdown, PDF, SVG preview, and binary file info pages
  • Status Bar: Bottom bar displays cursor position, selection info, language type, and other editing status
  • Recent Files: Empty editor page shows a list of recently opened files

🔧 Improvements ​

  • Execution Phase Tracking: The loading status bar now shows fine-grained execution phases (preparing / waiting for model / streaming / processing / running tool), helping you understand what the Agent is currently doing
  • Background Task Support Expansion: stream-json and headless modes now support background tasks; only print mode (-p) retains its original limitation
  • Settings Page Refactor: Refactored into a data-driven settings panel with REST API support for reading and writing user-level settings, including toggle, select, text input, and JSON editor controls, with save feedback prompts after operations
  • Code Block Optimization: Copy button now appears as a floating button on hover, language label bar removed for a cleaner interface
  • Menu Interaction Improvement: Slash commands, @ file completion, and + feature panel now support clicking outside to auto-close

🐛 Bug Fixes ​

  • Command Completion Menu: Fix the issue where the completion menu still shows when typing command arguments; the menu now correctly closes when the cursor leaves the command name area
  • Metrics Collection: Fix the circular invocation issue with the metrics endpoint in multi-instance scenarios
  • Session Working Directory: Fix the issue where the Web UI session working directory was set to a URL instead of the actual path
