Changelog

Official version history for the Knaix CLI. All updates prioritized security, reliability, and developer experience.

v0.3.3

Latest2026-03-03

Sovereign Memory Architecture

  • Agentic Memory: The CLI now durably persists cross-session context directly to your local isolated storage (~/.knaix).
  • Background Compaction: Silently distills REPL conversation history on a background thread without blocking your input loop.
  • Explicit Storage: Added /remember to selectively save facts and /memory to audit what your Sovereign Node knows about you.
  • Local Navigability: The knaix memory command now supports local listing and markdown rendering via the --file flag.

Aesthetic & Magic DX System

  • Premium Reporting Layout: Unified and polished all CLI output feedback across the application (Info:, Error:, ✓).
  • UX Transparency: Login, metric reporting, update fetching, and uploads now present clear, elegant status indicators.
  • Async Execution: Commands gracefully degrade or operate asynchronously without clobbering pipes or breaking the visual experience.

v0.3.2

2026-03-03

"Zero to Deploy" Workloads

  • Terminal-Native Provisioning: You can now securely provision your Sovereign Nodes directly from the CLI via `knaix up`.
  • Smart Navigation: Real-time, multi-stage loading spinners provide granular ETAs for kernel boot and Tailscale mesh connections.
  • Directory Uploads: `knaix upload <path>` now accepts directories via recursive parsing to bulk-ingest RAG context.

v0.3.1

2026-03-03

Enterprise Scriptability

  • Structured Pipeline Output: Execute data-retrieval commands with `-o json` for seamless jq integration in headless CI/CD systems.
  • Responsive Terminal Tables: `knaix list` and `metrics` now natively use comfy-table for dynamic window restructuring.
  • Graceful Downgrades: Output neatly switches to minimalist views if table constraints are breached.

v0.3.0

2026-03-03

Magic DX & Immersive Tools

  • Immersive REPL: Introduced knaix repl for persistent, continuous AI sessions with history and Markdown rendering.
  • Smart Failover: Automated node resolution that prompts for a replacement if your default node is unreachable.
  • Byte-Rate Progress: Added real-time upload speed and ETA tracking for the upload command.

Sovereign Hardening

  • Atomic Save Pattern: Prevents configuration corruption during crashes via write-sync-rename logic.
  • 0o600 Permissions: CLI now automatically hardens ~/.knaix/config.json to owner-only access.
  • Connection Pooling: Implemented KnaixContext to reuse TLS sessions, reducing request latency by ~150ms.

Refinement

  • Error Handling: Full migration to anyhow::Result for structured and actionable error reporting.
  • Env Overrides: Added KNAIX_TOKEN and KNAIX_API_URL support for headless automation.

v0.2.1

2026-02-15

Observability

  • Live Logs: Introduced the logs command to stream system output from private agent nodes.
  • Metrics: Added real-time health and performance checks for individual nodes.

UX Polish

  • Context Management: Added the use command for setting persistent default nodes.
  • Output Alignment: Refined list (ls) output with dynamic column spacing for better legibility.
