v0.13.7

Perf ⚡️ and more!

Hi! We have two solid items in release. Read on!

Rendering goes brrrrrrrrr

This release was all about improving Crush’s rendering speeds. Crush will now render much faster, especially when scrolling through the conversation. This also means that Crush CPU usage should be lower, particularly in big, long sessions. Go crazy!

Azure in the Age of Reason

We also made the full OpenAI feature set available to models at Azure. In particular, you can now choosing reasoning (Low! Medium! High!).

See you in the next release. We have some fun stuff coming next week! 💘

Verifying the artifacts

First, download the checksums.txt file, for example, with wget:

wget 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.13.7/checksums.txt'

Then, verify it using cosign:

cosign verify-blob \
  --certificate-identity 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/meta/.github/workflows/goreleaser.yml@refs/heads/main' \
  --certificate-oidc-issuer 'https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com' \
  --cert 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.13.7/checksums.txt.pem' \
  --signature 'https://github.com/charmbracelet/crush/releases/download/v0.13.7/checksums.txt.sig' \
  ./checksums.txt

If the output is Verified OK, you can safely use it to verify the checksums of other artifacts you downloaded from the release using sha256sum:

sha256sum --ignore-missing -c checksums.txt

Done! You artifacts are now verified!

v0.13.6

A few minor fixes

Bugs happen, and on there release we addressed a few of them. 🐞 💥 🔨

• Fixed tools not working properly with crush run (non-interactive mode). By the way, have you tried this mode?
• We'll only use built-in version (Go implementation) of the core utils on Windows from now on. They exist so Windows gets support for commands like cp, rm, mv, mkdir and many others. On other platforms, we'll actually use the system version to guarantee 100% compatibility.
• A couple of rendering and UX fixes.

Stay tuned! We have more prepared for the near future. 🚀

v0.13.0

A smarter, stronger Crush

Hi everyone! 👋

This new release includes a significant refactor on Crush internals:

• Crush is now much more resilient on the provider level and is now powered by a new library we've developed to normalize agentic workflows across providers.
• System prompts, tool calls and other important pieces were also tweaked to generally improve Crush’s behavior.

As a result, Crush should now to perform better on the provider-model and system prompt levels for better speeds, lower token usage, and better output across the board.

Config update for OpenAI-compatible providers

If you have any custom providers that use an OpenAI-compatible API, we highly recommend updating its type on the config from openai to openai-compat. With this, Crush will now behave better with these providers, with extra features that were previously unavailable.

{
  "$schema": "https://charm.land/crush.json",
  "providers": {
    "my-custom-provider": {
      "type": "openai-compat",
      // ...
    }
  }
}

Note

If you have a custom provider that is just a proxy or router through the actual OpenAI API, please keep the type as just openai.

Do not hesitate to reach out on our Slack and Discord servers if you have any feedback! ✨
