Yab 0.39.0
Build 202610241543
Pinned extensions get their own row, Yab restarts for updates while you're away, agents use your Settings access again, and fixes for Gemini and Claude.
Added
Phishing warnings
Settings › Privacy can turn on warnings for known phishing sites, checked against a list kept on your Mac. It is off by default.
Refresh Site Icon
A tab's menu can fetch the site's icon again when a site changes it.
Reading Mode on X
Reading Mode opens long-form X Articles.
New window from private browsing
New Window is in command search and a private window's Cmd-K menu, so you can get back to normal browsing.
Pinned extensions row
When pinned extensions no longer fit beside the address, they move to a row of their own under it, as in Arc.
Update while away
Yab restarts to install an update while you're away from your Mac and waits if work, media, private tabs or dialogs are open. Settings › General › Update automatically turns it off.
Developer Mode on any site
Developer Mode can be turned on for any website from the menu or with Control-D, not only for pages served from your Mac.
Filter lists
Settings › Privacy lets you choose built-in filter lists, add your own HTTPS lists and update them on demand.
Peek click
Settings › Tabs can open Peek with Option-click instead of Shift-click.
Default Space for links
Air Traffic Control can send links from other apps that match no rule to a Default Space of your choice or to the space open when the link arrives.
Where settings apply
Search and space settings say whether they apply to all spaces, as a default for spaces, or to this space only.
Agent icons
Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and Gemini show their real app icons in setup, the welcome and Settings › Models.
Improved
Pinned tabs like Arc
Double-clicking a pinned tab takes it back to its pinned page, and closing one returns to the page you viewed last.
Active space among dots
When many spaces turn the sidebar foot into dots, the space you're in shows its icon, as in Arc.
Folder previews
Folder previews show a path you can click, pinned cards and rounded site icons.
Extension popups
Extension popups open at their final size instead of resizing after they appear.
Install command
The setup command in the welcome shows whole, with a one-line status and a Copy button.
Agent tab access
Agents follow the access you set in Settings again, so they can use your open tabs and switch spaces without asking before every tab change.
Agents in One Row
Agents in One Row is on for everyone, and its switch has moved from Experimental to Settings › Agents.
Page zoom
Zoom In and Zoom Out move in steps of 10 percent.
Active space dot
The dot of the space you're in wears that space's color.
Split tab menus
Separate comes first in a split tab's menu.
Reading Mode page
Reading Mode's Settings page opens with an article in your chosen theme, and its row under Websites shows that theme.
Shortcut search
Searching shortcuts by modifier keys finds every shortcut that uses them, even with other modifiers in between.
Halloween
The Halloween look on the update note shows only on October 31.
Fixed
Picture in Picture return
A video coming back from Picture in Picture no longer flashes an old frame.
Member stamp date
Your stamp keeps the first-day date the site has for you instead of an older guess on your Mac.
Gemini connection
Gemini stays signed in through your Mac's login keychain, Yab checks that the connection works, and a denied tool no longer leaves it stuck.
Agents from Terminal
Claude and other agents installed from Terminal are found when Yab opens from the Dock, and a failed start says what went wrong.
Pointer crash
Moving the pointer over some nested views no longer crashes Yab.
Numbered tabs
Command-1 through Command-9 skip tabs hidden inside closed folders.
Agent send card
The send card's buttons stay in the corner while it grows or shrinks.
Settings Back and Forward
Back and Forward in Settings return to where you left a page without flashing its top first.
Paused ad blocker
The paused ad blocker shield hides together with the sidebar's address controls.
Extension tabs
Extensions keep track of tabs that leave a window as it closes.
Reinstalling extensions
Reinstalling or reloading an extension waits for its old storage to clear, and an error no longer blocks later tries.
Full address editing
Editing the full address keeps www, so a changed path stays on the same site.
Go To
Right-clicking a selected web address offers Go To again.
Local file addresses
A local file with no title shows its full address.
Small window inspector
Inspect Element in a small window opens the inspector for that window's page.
Agent sign-in
Leftover output from an ended or replaced sign-in no longer opens an old sign-in page.
Agent questions
Show on an agent's question opens the right window and space, and an old question can no longer hide a newer one.
