Roadmap · Changelog

What's next.

BoxB is built in the open. Here's what we're shipping next, and what we've shipped already.

◆ Coming Soon

More than messengers.

BoxB is becoming the single window for everything you work in. Code, chats, tickets, CI, secrets, AI — all under one frame, no logging in and out.

  • Soon

    Code & Repos

    • GitHub
    • GitLab

    Your repos, PRs, and issues — accessible without leaving BoxB.

  • Soon

    AI Assistants

    • ChatGPT
    • Claude
    • GitHub Copilot

    Every assistant you use, in one keystroke.

  • Soon

    Project Management

    • Jira
    • Linear

    Track work where it lives. Switch contexts without losing place.

  • Soon

    Team Chat

    • Slack
    • Discord

    Already here, but going deeper. Native integration, faster switching.

  • Soon

    CI/CD Monitor

    • GitHub Actions
    • GitLab CI
    • Vercel
    • Jenkins
    • CircleCI

    Watch your pipelines without opening five tabs.

  • Soon

    Built-in Terminal

    • xterm.js local shell panel

    A real terminal, panel-docked. No more alt-tabbing to PowerShell.

  • Soon

    Pre-commit Secret Scanner

    • TruffleHog
    • Gitleaks (local engine, no cloud)

    Catches API keys and secrets before they hit your repo. All scanning happens on your machine.

  • Soon

    AI Command Bar

    Natural language across every tool. ‘Show me yesterday's PRs from Sarah’ just works.

  • Soon

    Context Bridge

    CI failure jumps you to the failing test, the related ticket, and the person who last touched it. One click.

Plus: macOS · Linux · code-signed installers · auto-update polish

◆ Shipped

Version history.

Every release. What changed. Real progress, written in plain English.

  1. v0.1.1

    May 1, 2026

    Auto-update foundation + the great icon fix

    • Catalog icons now render correctly in installed builds (the path resolution bug was real and embarrassing — fixed)
    • Auto-update wired in: silent background download, restart prompt when ready, no nagging
    • Version display added to the empty state so you always know what you’re on
    • Behind the scenes: code-signing prep, NSIS installer naming corrected
  2. v0.1.0

    April 2026

    First public build

    • Workspaces, multi-window, locked workspace windows
    • Per-instance service rename
    • Smart hibernation (light freeze for messengers, aggressive unmount for everything else)
    • Custom in-app toast notifications (because Windows native ones hung in unsigned dev builds)
    • 17 catalog services + custom URL support
    • System tray, single-instance lock, close-to-tray
    • First packaged Windows installer
