Release notes

Clearer updates, with a real DMG fallback

0.2.0-beta.50 · September 15, 2026

After a restart you see whether the update landed, Settings → About shows last-checked and install progress, and the DMG fallback comes from the signed manifest instead of a guessed URL.

Fixed

  • Download or install failures keep the checked update so Retry works without checking again.
  • The update chip stays visible for actionable errors, not only when a version is already known.
  • Restarting no longer looks like success before the new version is running.

New

  • After restart, a toast confirms the new version or offers the signed DMG if the update did not finish.
  • Settings → About shows last-checked time, download progress, and Download DMG from the updater manifest.
Newer release MCP you can copy, a clearer first run, and owned Browser tabs Older release Hardened desktop, bug reports that reach admin

You describe the work. Vortex plans, edits, verifies, and ships inside your workspace. The editor, terminal, diffs, and browser are how you watch and steer — not where you are expected to write the solution.
