Fix Windows Terminal mode issues.
- Fix split direction: use -H for top/bottom layout (opposite of tmux)
- Fix command quoting: use cmd /c to avoid Windows file-not-found errors
- Remove confusing tmux session closed message in wt mode
Windows Terminal native split-pane option.
- Add multiplexer config option to switch between tmux/psmux (default) and Windows Terminal's native split-pane
- Avoids the psmux focus-freeze issue when switching away from the terminal window on Windows
- Config: multiplexer: "tmux" (default) or "wt" for Windows Terminal
Add multiplexer config option to switch between tmux/psmux (default) and
Windows Terminal's native split-pane on Windows. This avoids the
psmux focus-freeze issue when switching away from the terminal window.
- Add Multiplexer field to config with MultiplexerBackend() getter
- Add startWtSession() using wt.exe split-pane command
- Dispatch startTmuxSession() based on OS and config
- Document option in config.example.yaml
Compact menu layout and cross-env namespace discovery.
- Reduce menu item height from 3 rows to 1 (no description, no spacing) for denser display
- Merge namespaces from all configured envs so namespace-only-in-prod is no longer missing
- Reduce menu item height from 3 rows to 1 (no description, no spacing)

Self-update support, config editing, and ExternalSecret CRD fixes.
- Self-update command (kctl-tui update): download and install the latest release directly from GitHub
- Startup update check: interactive prompt on launch when a newer version is available (opt-out via auto_update_check: false in config)
- Config edit command (kctl-tui config edit): open ~/.kctl-tui/config.yaml in your default editor
- ExternalSecret CRD fix: use the correct CRD name when force-syncing
- CI: upgrade to Go 1.25
New subcommand 'kctl-tui config edit' opens ~/.kctl-tui/config.yaml
in the user's editor. Respects VISUAL/EDITOR env vars, falls back to
notepad on Windows and vim on Linux/macOS. Creates the config directory
and a starter file if they don't exist yet.
The force-sync pre-filled the ExternalSecret object name with the
Kubernetes secret name (e.g. job-apply-common-secrets), but the
kubectl annotate command must target the ExternalSecret CRD object
(e.g. job-apply). Added external_secret_name_template config option
with fallback to k8s_secret_name_template.
- Add auto_update_check config field (defaults to true)
- Load config before update check, skip if auto_update_check is false
- Add TTY check before interactive prompt (skip in non-TTY environments)
- Update config.example.yaml with new option documentation
- Upgrade go-version from 1.24 to 1.25 in build.yml (required by go-selfupdate v1.6.0)
- Add kctl-tui update command and interactive startup check to README.md
- Document new features in CHANGELOG.md
- Update Go version requirement to 1.25+ in README.md and CONTRIBUTING.md
- Add Phase 5 (Self-update) to PLAN.md roadmap
When starting kctl-tui without a subcommand, check GitHub Releases
for a newer version and prompt the user to update.
- Silent skip for dev builds and network errors
- Prompt: 'Update now? [y/N]'
- On 'y': apply update, then start TUI
- On 'N'/Enter: start TUI immediately
Add 'kctl-tui update' subcommand that checks GitHub Releases for
new versions and replaces the running binary.
Uses github.com/creativeprojects/go-selfupdate for safe binary
replacement with automatic OS/arch detection.
Supports --verbose flag for detailed update progress logging.
This release adds --help and --version flags, updates dependencies,
improves documentation for Windows support, and refines CI pipelines.
- Add --help and --version flags to main binary
- Update GitHub Actions workflow to latest major versions
- Update Go dependencies to latest versions
- Fix SPEC.md and README.md for current codebase (Windows fully supported)
- Update PLAN.md with roadmap for v0.3.0 and v1.0
- Add release command automation
- SPEC.md: Windows is now a fully supported platform (not secondary)
- SPEC.md: Remove outdated 'manual pane handling' claim for Windows
- SPEC.md: Update non-functional requirements (Linux/macOS/Windows)
- README.md: Remove duplicate 'This downloads...' paragraph
- README.md: Use --namespace instead of -n in k9s examples
The / filter in the list component captured keystrokes after returning
from tmux, showing random text like 'cc' and blocking cursor navigation.
Filtering is not needed for the 3-level context/team/namespace flow.
- Debug fmt.Fprintf calls were always visible in TUI
- Added VerboseLog() to kubeexec package for use by full.go
- All tmux debug output now only shows with --verbose flag
psmux on Windows doesn't handle ; separators when args are passed
individually via exec.Command. Instead of chaining commands with ;,
run each setup command (new-session, set-option, split-window, etc.)
as individual exec.Command calls. Only tmux attach uses ExecProcess
so it properly takes over the terminal.
psmux on Windows doesn't handle ; separators when args are passed
individually via exec.Command. On Windows, build the full tmux
command string and run it through cmd.exe /c instead.
- Remove -- separator from tmux args (psmux on Windows doesn't support it)
- Unknown subcommands now show error + usage (exit 1) instead of starting TUI
- --help now always shows usage and exits (no fallthrough to TUI)
tmux aborts the entire command chain when kill-session fails (no
existing session). This caused 'no current target' error on Linux.
The kill-session is now a separate exec.Command() call before
starting the tmux chain, ignoring any error.
