mesalogo c037d7fb20 fix: complete runtime and workspace workflows
Restore Ask workspace reads and output paging without granting write access,
and let programming Subagents reuse their parent's browser page. Allocate
browser resources only when used, keep Agent pages aligned with workbar tabs,
recover released bindings, and remove unused automatic screenshot work.

Preserve inherited Runtime selections during remote usage persistence and
manual compression. Keep viable channel model fallbacks, display the actual
scheduled-task mode and Harness model source, and avoid rediscovery delays
when calling healthy MCP tools. Fix directory/history refresh, case-only
renames, rename-aware commit diffs, and FastGPT probe success reporting.

Add regression coverage and align feature documentation. The Agent-side
connection timeout fix requires deploying an updated Agent; existing Ask
read-only and Execute authorization boundaries remain unchanged.

Final validation: 3839 tests passed, 66 skipped; typecheck, lint, development
build, and diff checks passed. Isolated Electron UI/MCP workflows passed with
a loopback model fixture. Current-source Linux x64 Host checks passed with
three successful real model requests. Chromium loadURL rejection was not
reproduced in the UI; released-binding recovery has automated coverage.

Release note: 修复 Ask 读取项目文件、浏览器页面显示与恢复、文件管理及模型配置跟随中的不一致,并减少无用截图和 MCP 等待。定时任务显示实际工作模式,远程会话可正常保存继承 Runtime 的用量;远端连接超时修复需更新 Agent 后生效。

GoodBuddy workspace

GoodBuddy is a desktop application for model chat, coding agents, knowledge retrieval, notes, and scheduled tasks. No GoodBuddy account is required. Workspace data is stored locally by default. Model endpoints can run on the same device, on a private network, or at a provider selected by the user.

Highlights

  • Local-first workspace: No GoodBuddy account is required. Workspace data stays local by default, and users choose where model services run.
  • Unified Agent Runtimes: Use direct models, OpenCode, Continue, and the preview DeepSeek Harness from one desktop interface.
  • Explicit execution boundaries: Ask remains read-only, while Execute uses the current account's permissions. Tool activity, cancellation, timeouts, and token usage are recorded.
  • Broad platform coverage: Official Linux releases cover x64 and arm64, including compatible distributions used in China's domestic computing ecosystem. A separate experimental loong64 preview is available for LoongArch systems.
  • Knowledge and long-running work: Knowledge bases, graphs, Magic Notes, tasks, and Smart Heartbeat share one desktop workspace.

Platform coverage describes operating-system, instruction-set, and package compatibility, not certification for every hardware vendor or distribution release. LoongArch is outside the official release matrix; see the LoongArch preview notes for its current limitations.

Agent Runtimes

Runtime Functions Configuration
Direct models Chat, retrieval, image generation, and built-in tools GoodBuddy model connections
OpenCode Coding agents, native commands, tools, and skills GoodBuddy-managed or native OpenCode configuration
Continue Rules, prompt presets, and coding tasks GoodBuddy-managed or native Continue configuration
DeepSeek Harness (preview) A fixed host with optional plugin capabilities GoodBuddy-managed OpenAI-compatible connection

Each run reports cancellation, timeouts, token usage, tool calls, and history. Runtime-specific capabilities and configuration remain separate.

Download

Download a build from GitHub Releases:

Platform Architectures Formats
Windows x64, arm64 NSIS, portable ZIP
macOS x64, arm64 DMG, ZIP
Linux x64, arm64 AppImage, DEB, RPM

The experimental LoongArch loong64 build is distributed through a separate preview channel on the product website.

Desktop installers do not contain remote Agent payloads. Local projects do not need an Agent package; managed SSH users download or import one explicitly in Settings.

Code signing and macOS notarization are not configured yet, so the operating system may display a security warning.

Run from source

Requires Node.js 24 and npm:

git clone https://github.com/mesalogo/goodbuddy.git
cd goodbuddy
npm ci
npm run dev

See BUILD.md for build and packaging instructions.

Documentation

Privacy and execution boundaries

  • Model requests are sent only to services selected by the user.
  • Local data stays in the operating system's application data directory by default. API keys are encrypted by secure system storage.
  • The Renderer has no access to raw Electron APIs or model credentials.
  • The DeepSeek Harness plugin marketplace is off by default. Third-party install scripts, initialization code, and Execute tools run with the current user's permissions.
  • Remote delegation is enabled only after the user configures an endpoint and token.
  • Private-network compatibility permits in-app HTTP and non-standard HTTPS certificates. WeChat credential and media endpoints remain strictly validated.
