Glimpse into any brief from a shared link

Shared brief links now show a preview page. Hamster now also revises plans mid-execution.

Brief Sharing

People who open a shared brief link now see a preview page. Team members skip the preview and land straight on the brief.

The share page showing "Sign in to see this brief" with a brief preview card displaying the title, description, and Aligned status badge, and a Sign in to Hamster button

Add teammates to a brief or invite someone new to Hamster from the brief header. Learn more about sharing briefs.

Re-Planning

Hamster can now revise its plan mid-execution. If a task reveals an unexpected dependency, Hamster re-evaluates the remaining steps instead of continuing with the original plan.

Improvements

  • Hamster now reads the current brief when you ask it to revise, instead of working from memory
  • Briefs now show their creator on the list view
  • hamster sync --brief syncs a single brief instead of your entire workspace
  • hamster sync --team selects a team without prompts, so scripts and CI pipelines can sync unattended
  • Hamster now responds when @mentioned alongside other users in the same message
  • You can now send messages with only an attachment and no text
  • Pasting longer text into chat no longer converts it to an attachment unexpectedly
  • Blueprints now show inline diffs when Hamster proposes changes, just like briefs

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed CLI auto-upgrade failing when checking for new versions
  • Fixed MFA sessions losing authentication during long watch sessions
