# Kavor 1.2.0

## Highlights

- Adds rich File Node previews for images and PDFs. Large PDFs render only the visible pages, while bounded image,
  canvas, and file limits protect the Workspace from unbounded memory use.
- Completes File and Specification lifecycle workflows: create a Specification from the Canvas menu, rename or
  delete sources from their Workspace surfaces, organize folders, and keep existing Nodes synchronized with
  filesystem changes.
- Lets paths from the Files panel be dropped directly into Terminal and CodingAgent sessions with quoting matched
  to the active shell.
- Expands atomic Canvas proposals with Specification creation, persisted application progress, and recovery of
  reversible File and Specification side effects.
- Makes every available Kavor Skill advertise the exact `kavor.skill.get("<name>")` call a CodingAgent uses to
  load it.

## Fixes

- Preserves custom YAML frontmatter fields, comments, order, filenames, and Workspace-relative paths when editing
  Specifications.
- Stabilizes Terminal and CodingAgent hydration so delayed PTY state does not lose restored content or duplicate
  ownership during Workspace changes.
- Keeps Sticky Note appends as distinct Markdown blocks, avoids creating a revision for an empty append, and
  applies text limits by Unicode code point.
- Hardens File and Specification mutations with serialized Workspace changes, path containment, source
  invalidation, and explicit failure handling.
- Resolves the production dependency advisories present in the previous dependency graph.

## Installation

Download Kavor from <https://download.agentkavor.com>. The page detects the current platform and also exposes all
available packages.

- Windows x64 uses the assisted per-User NSIS installer. The installer is currently unsigned, so Microsoft
  SmartScreen may require explicit confirmation.
- macOS 13+ provides separate arm64 and x64 DMGs. Builds are ad-hoc signed but not notarized; follow the download
  page's Gatekeeper instructions. Kavor-managed updates use the matching architecture-specific ZIP and expose an
  explicit coordinated restart after the cached artifact is revalidated. The manual download remains available
  at all times.
- Linux x64 provides AppImage and DEB packages. AppImage supports Kavor-managed updates with an explicit
  coordinated restart; DEB updates are installed manually from the download page.

## Known limitations

- Windows ARM64 and Linux ARM64 packages are not included until their native PTY, SQLite, process-containment,
  and packaged-runtime gates can run on matching CI environments.
- Windows direct downloads do not yet have an Authenticode publisher certificate.
- macOS packages do not yet have Developer ID signing or notarization. Gatekeeper may require manual confirmation,
  and replacing an ad-hoc build may cause macOS to request access to `Kavor Safe Storage` in Keychain again.
- Microsoft Store distribution is not part of this release.
