Lots of little things

Improvements

• The All Workspaces page now has project filters, plus a redesigned row layout showing repo icons and last-active time

Polish and fixes

Conductor figures out which agent messages are most important and collapses the rest. We have a new algorithm that is more accurate (especially with Claude Code background agents) and will more often highlight the most important messages.

(To see all messages without collapsing any you can always hit ⌃O.)

Workspace and Chat Links

You can now right click to copy a link to a workspace or chat.

Improvements

Claude Sonnet 5

Introducing Claude Sonnet 5, Anthropic's newest model, now in Conductor. Performance is much closer to Opus 4.8 while being significantly cheaper. Give it a try!

• Brought back the "Add project" button in the sidebar.
• Added "Add project" to the command palette.

Multiple Run Scripts

Your script is running? You'd better go catch it!

Conductor now supports multiple run scripts - that means you can control all of the commands for your monorepo, tests, and scripts with the "Run" button.

See Run scripts for setup details.
