YabYab 0.31.0
Build 202610191416
Yab updates itself while closed, snippets come in from Raycast and Alfred, Tab asks Claude from the field, and a crash on macOS 15 is gone.
Added
Updates while closed
A closed Yab updates itself: a small helper checks at login and every four hours and puts the newer build in place while the app isn't open.
Snippets from other apps
Settings › Snippets has Bring In: Text Replacements, Alfred and espanso from this Mac, Raycast's exported file and TextExpander's CSV, with a preview of what comes in.
Export bookmarks
Settings › Bring In exports your bookmarks to the HTML file Chrome, Safari and Firefox take in.
Several downloads at once
A page that starts several files at once gets the first; for the rest it asks on the site's card, Allow or Don't Allow, kept for the site in Site Controls.
Tab asks Claude
⇥ in the field asks the agent at once, as Raycast's Tab does, and the field's end says "Ask Claude ⇥".
Reopen a closed window
⇧⌘T brings back a window closed after its last tab, as in Chrome, and File says Reopen Closed Window then.
Copy Email Address
Right-click a mailto: link for Copy Email Address, the address alone.
Extension shortcuts
An extension's Keyboard Shortcuts link opens Settings › Shortcuts at its commands, and the keys an extension had in Arc, Dia or Chrome come with it.
Mail for agents
Agents' mail drafts take Cc, Bcc and files, forward, send from another address of the account and change a kept draft.
Improved
⇧⌘T at once
A tab brought back with ⇧⌘T shows its page at once, as in Arc.
Site searches
⇥ after a site's name lists what you searched there and its pages you read, as in Arc.
Steady search rows
The search engine's rows under ⌘T's words no longer vanish and come back at each key.
Agents use your tab
An agent opening a page you already have open goes to your tab instead of opening a copy beside it.
Answers in the chat
A task's answer is the last message in its chat; there is no separate answer page.
Short replies
A word after an answer gets a short answer back, not the whole answer again.
Task folders
A task's folder that holds one site wears that site's icon.
Agents in your terminal
Folders and tabs of an agent you run in your own terminal, such as Claude Code or Codex, stop looking busy a minute and a half after its last step, and its tabs close on time.
Assistants
Settings › Assistants opens with a way in to connect dots, Muse or Grok Bot, Enter a Code is a page with the code in two groups of four, and each assistant has its own page with its sites in one table.
Quit with an agent at work
⌘Q asks with three buttons: Cancel, Stop and Quit, Quit When Done.
Column over the page
With the page edge to edge, the column brought out over it wears its space's look, as Arc's sidebar does.
Mail
A tab in front in Mail has back, forward and reload, a draft's Cc and Bcc rows have an × to take them away, and a split just made from a label shows in the column.
Send Feedback
The email field comes filled with the address of your last report.
The field
A paste comes trimmed, and ⌘T or ⌘L again puts its field away, as in Arc.
Changed
⇧⌘B
⇧⌘B shows or hides the bookmarks bar, as in Chrome, Dia and Safari; ⌃⌘B still does too.
Fixed
macOS 15 crash
Yab no longer crashes on macOS 15 when a tab plays sound, including at every launch with a playing tab restored.
Closing windows
Closing a window no longer crashes Yab.
Extensions and loading tabs
Turning off, removing or updating your only extension no longer stops the tabs loading at that moment.
Back and forward
Back and forward no longer hang while other tabs load.
History
A page you left before it finished loading is in History and the field's rows.
Full screen
Escape on a page no longer takes the window out of full screen.
Restart and shut down
Restarting or shutting down the Mac no longer stops at Yab's quit question.
Picture in Picture
A site's Picture-in-Picture on a busy Mac no longer gets stuck halfway.
Swipe back
Two-finger swipes on pages that scroll sideways no longer go back in history by mistake on a busy Mac.
Proton VPN
Proton VPN's popup gets past "Allow VPN permissions" to its sign-in.
Replies on X
An agent's words go into X's reply box once and stay editable.
Agents
A chat Claude turns away starts over on ChatGPT, Connect asks once, Bypass tasks don't stop before sending, and an assistant's task runs right after Yab opens.
Two mail accounts
With two accounts holding the same mail, an agent's reply or archive goes to the right one.
Selections and forms
⌘J on a selection, Replace and filling forms no longer wait 15 seconds on a busy Mac.
Tabs
Tabs dragged to another window land there with a full-screen window above the Dock, and tabs opened one after another keep their order.
Model picker
The model picker's details card stays inside a narrow window.
