CodeXomics v0.723.0 Release Notes

  • Release date: October 29, 2026
  • Application version: 0.723.0
  • In-app display: v0.723
  • Plugin API: 2.0.0

Summary

This release completes the application updater and its signed release pipeline, and incorporates main-menu fixes and previously unreleased application improvements. Current source builds use Electron 43.8.7 and require Node.js 22.12+ and npm 10+. The standalone test matrix covers Node.js 20 and 22.

For changes on main since this tag, see the Unreleased changelog.

Application Updates

  • One update window shows checks, release notes, download progress, cancellation, verification failures, retries and confirmed restart installation.
  • Startup checks repeat every six hours. Stable builds reject prereleases and downgrades, and unsupported package types explain their update method.
  • Electron requests time out on inactivity, including before response headers.
  • macOS installation readiness waits for native signature validation.
  • SHA512 checks and native signature verification remain enabled. Windows and Linux installation requires an explicit restart; macOS also stages on quit.

Release Engineering

  • Native macOS, Windows and Linux builds provide manifests and referenced artifacts.
  • Missing signing/notarization credentials fail release builds. Windows signing identities must match the configured updater publisher.
  • Combined release artifacts are validated before upload to a draft. macOS ZIPs cover both Intel and Apple Silicon; Linux includes AppImage and DEB; Windows provides NSIS and a separately named portable edition.

Other Changes

  • Repairs main-menu actions, project-manager dispatch and keyboard shortcuts.
  • Includes the source tree's agent settings, streaming, annotation review and performance improvements since the previous public beta.

Installation And Compatibility

Save work in all windows before installing. Older public beta packages lack a complete update feed; users may need to install this release manually once. Portable and store-managed installations use their manual or package-manager update route. See the user guide and the canonical release procedure.

Validation And Availability

The updater was validated with unit tests, real Electron window/network checks, and unsigned local macOS packaging. Native signing and upgrade installation must pass release QA before the draft is made public. See the update audit for validation details and limits.
