ZRepoManager 0.5.0

v0.5.0 — 2026-04-20

New Features

---

Environments & Secrets

Full lifecycle management for GitHub repository secrets and environments — including a bulk-copy operation that GitHub's own UI cannot do.

• Repo Secrets tab: list all secrets for the selected repository with name and last-updated date; create new secrets via name + masked value input; delete secrets with one click
• Environments tab: list all deployment environments (production, staging, etc.) per repo; create and delete environments; select an environment to manage its environment-scoped secrets separately
• Bulk Copy tab: enter a secret name and value once, select any number of target repos via a compact multi-column grid, and push the secret to all of them in a single operation — per-repo success/failure results displayed inline
• Secret values are encrypted client-side using a correct libsodium crypto_box_seal implementation (ephemeral X25519 keypair, Blake2b-24 nonce, XSalsa20Poly1305) before being sent to the GitHub API

---

Dependabot / Security Alerts

Portfolio-wide vulnerability visibility without opening the browser.

• Repo Alerts tab: list open, dismissed, or fixed Dependabot alerts for the selected repo; expand any alert to see CVE ID, GHSA ID, affected package, ecosystem, and a direct link to GitHub; filter by state (open / dismissed / fixed) and severity (critical / high / medium / low)
• Critical vulnerability banner appears at the top of the list when any critical alerts are open
• Enable or disable Dependabot alerts for the selected repo via a toggle button
• Portfolio Overview tab: select multiple repos via a compact grid, click Scan at the top (always visible), and get a cross-repo severity table — each row shows counts of critical (C), high (H), medium (M), and low (L) alerts; archived repos are surfaced as "Archived" instead of crashing
• Archived repositories no longer cause an error toast — they degrade gracefully to an empty state

---

Dependency Scanner

Parse package manifests across your entire portfolio without cloning anything locally.

• Fetches and parses package.json (npm), Cargo.toml (cargo), requirements.txt (pip), go.mod (go modules), and pom.xml (maven) via the GitHub Contents API for each selected repo
• Packages tab: unified list of every dependency found across all scanned repos; search by name; filter by ecosystem (npm / cargo / pip / go / maven); each entry shows all versions in use and how many repos use each version; conflict rows highlighted in amber
• Conflicts tab: packages where two or more repos use different versions — each conflict group shows version → list of repos using it; "no conflicts" success state when the portfolio is clean
• By Repo tab: expandable card per repo showing which manifest files were found and the full dependency list in a compact chip grid
• Summary stats in the page header: total packages, conflict count, repos with manifests found

---

Full Keyboard Shortcut System

Keyboard-first navigation for the Repositories page.

• J / K — move cursor up and down the repo list
• Space — toggle selection for the row under the cursor
• Enter — open the detail slide-over for the row under the cursor
• D — queue delete for selected repos (or cursor row if nothing selected)
• A — queue archive for selected repos (or cursor row if nothing selected)
• R — force-refresh the repo list
• ? — open the keyboard shortcuts overlay listing all available shortcuts
• ⌘K — open the Command Palette (existing, now documented in the overlay)

---

Cleanup Mode Presets

One-click bulk cleanup without manually picking repos.

• Spring Clean: targets all repos flagged as Dead or Empty — shows a preview list before queuing
• Portfolio Mode: targets repos that are not Active and not starred — keeps your best repos safe
• Minimal Mode: ranks all repos by health score and targets the bottom 20
• Each preset opens a slide-over panel with a preview of affected repos; clicking "Queue N repos" sends them to the queue with the appropriate action (archive or delete) and requires the standard confirmation modal

---

Saved Filter Presets

Save and recall filter combinations from the sidebar.

• Type a name and click the bookmark icon to save the current filter state (search text, visibility, language, health category, topic, size) as a named preset
• Click any saved preset to instantly restore all its filters
• Delete presets with the × button
• Persisted to localStorage — presets survive restarts

---

Notification Center — Persistence

• Notifications now survive app restarts — persisted to localStorage via Zustand persist middleware
• Capped at 200 in memory and 100 persisted to keep storage lean

---

Notification Center — Persistence & Desktop Notifications

• Notifications now survive app restarts — persisted to localStorage via Zustand persist middleware
• Capped at 200 in memory and 100 persisted to keep storage lean
• Desktop OS notifications wired to the queue finished event; dispatches new Notification(...) when desktopNotificationsEnabled is on, respecting the per-event notifyOnQueueComplete / notifyOnQueueFailure toggles from Settings

---

Keyboard Shortcuts

• J / K — move cursor up and down the repo list
• Space — toggle selection for the row under the cursor
• Enter — open the detail slide-over for the row under the cursor
• D — queue delete for selected repos (or cursor row if nothing selected)
• A — queue archive for selected repos (or cursor row if nothing selected)
• R — force-refresh the repo list
• F — focus the filter search input
• ? — open the keyboard shortcuts overlay
• ⌘K — open the Command Palette (existing, now documented in the overlay)

---

Cleanup Mode Presets

• Portfolio Mode: targets repos that are not Active and not starred
• Minimal Mode: ranks all repos by health score and targets the bottom 20
• Each preset opens a slide-over panel with a preview; clicking "Queue N repos" sends them to the queue and requires the standard confirmation modal

---

• Type a name and click the bookmark icon to save the current filter state (search text, visibility, language, health category, topic, size) as a named preset
• Click any saved preset to instantly restore all its filters; delete presets with the × button
• Persisted to localStorage — presets survive restarts

---

Bug Fixes

• Secret name sanitization: AddSecretForm and bulk copy now strip all non-alphanumeric/underscore characters with replace(/[^A-Z0-9_]/g, '_') — fixes GitHub's "Secret names can only contain alphanumeric characters" rejection
• Repo selector dropdown z-index: All three pages (Environments, Security, Deps) now use a portal-based RepoSelectorDropdown that renders into document.body with position: fixed — fixes dropdown being clipped under page content with overflow: hidden parents
• Portfolio multi-repo picker z-index: Same portal fix applied to the SecurityPage portfolio picker and the new MultiRepoPicker component
• pnpm / yarn ecosystem detection: deps_scanner.rs now probes for pnpm-lock.yaml and yarn.lock alongside package.json and labels deps with the correct package manager instead of always showing "npm"
• Dropdown not opening (AnimatePresence + createPortal): Removed AnimatePresence wrapping createPortal(...) — framer-motion cannot track a React portal as a direct child, causing silent render suppression. Enter animation preserved via motion.div initial/animate props
• 403 error message leaks full URL: delete_repo, archive_repo, set_visibility, rename_repo, and update_topics now use check_ok/check_json instead of reqwest's error_for_status(), which was producing "HTTP 403 for url (https://api.github.com/repos/...)". They now surface GitHub's actual error body (e.g. "Must have admin rights to Repository")
• Queue double-start: queue_start now checks the current status and returns QUEUE_BUSY if a run is already active — prevents spawning a second concurrent worker
• Queue backend accumulation: queue_start now purges non-pending items before starting a new run; queue_clear Tauri command added (with keepPending flag); queueStore.reset() and clearCompleted() now call it so frontend and backend stay in sync
• Dependabot toggle error message: The opaque GitHub error "Failed to change dependabot alerts status." is now intercepted and replaced with a clear explanation pointing to the security_events write scope requirement or org-level control

---

Other Changes

• Version bumped to 0.5.0 across all config files (package.json, Cargo.toml, tauri.conf.json)

---

ZRepoManager 0.4.0

Changelog

v0.4.0 — 2026-04-19

New Features

---

Pull Requests

---

Release Manager

Create and manage GitHub Releases.

• List releases per repo: tag badge, draft/prerelease badges, asset count, published date
• Expand to read release notes (Markdown rendered), upload assets via native file dialog, download or delete individual assets, edit metadata inline, or delete the release
• Create releases: tag name, release name, target branch selector, Markdown body editor, draft and pre-release toggles
• Queue files before clicking Create — they upload sequentially with a live progress bar after the release is created; the button label shows "Create & Upload N file(s)" as a reminder
• After creation the new release auto-expands so you can upload additional assets
• Cross-repo Overview tab: table of selected repos with their latest release tag and date, sorted oldest-first to surface stale repos

---

Workflow Run Logs

View full CI logs without leaving the app.

• Click any completed run (success, failure, or cancelled) to expand a log panel
• Left column: job list with step-level status icons; click a job to load its logs
• Right column: raw log output with ANSI codes stripped, clipboard copy button, keyword search
• Tabs: Logs | Artifacts — switching tabs never closes the panel

---

Organization Support

Manage org repositories alongside personal repos.

• ContextSwitcher in the sidebar lists all orgs you belong to
• Select an org to load its repositories in the Repos page — same filtering, sorting, and bulk operations
• Org context persists across sessions via localStorage

---

Settings Enhancements

• General Behavior: default grace window slider, default execution mode, stale branch threshold, and repo cache TTL
• Appearance: accent color picker with 6 presets + custom hex input; applied globally to --accent CSS variable on mount
• Notifications: desktop notification toggle (graceful fallback on Linux Tauri WebView), notify-on-queue-complete and failure checkboxes
• Saved Filter Presets: save current repo filter state as a named preset; recall or delete via dropdown in the filter panel
• Background refresh: repo list silently refreshes every 30 seconds without showing a loading spinner

ZRepoManager 0.3.0

v0.3.0 — 2026-04-18

New Features

---

Actions Tab — Improvements

Significant quality-of-life upgrades across the GitHub Actions tab.

• Right-click context menus on workflow rows — enable/disable, trigger, delete workflow (removes the .yml file from the repo)
• Right-click context menus on run rows — rerun failed jobs, view run link
• Run → Running state — clicking Run on a workflow changes the button to "Running" for that workflow; clicking it again while running jumps directly to the Runs tab
• Artifact download in Runs tab — click the artifact count badge on any completed run to expand an artifact card; each artifact row has a Download button that resolves the archive URL via the GitHub API
• Delete Workflow — removes the workflow .yml file via a commit to the default branch using the Git Data API

---

Create Workflow Tab

A full in-app workflow authoring and deployment tool, added as a dedicated tab inside GitHub Actions.

• Choose from ready-made templates: CI (Node/Python/Go/Rust/pnpm), Tauri Release (cross-platform desktop builds), Deploy (generic deployment), Manual — or upload your own .yml
• Monaco YAML editor with syntax highlighting, line numbers, and bracket colorization
• Pill-style per-repo branch toggle to target a specific branch per repo
• Multi-repo support — commit to one or many repos in a single operation
• Tauri Release template includes: tag-push path (auto-release + updater JSON) and manual-dispatch path (artifact upload without release), signing key wiring, and cross-compiled target glob coverage

---

Code Editor (File Manager)

A full code editor built directly into the File Manager, powered by Monaco (the same engine as VS Code).

• Click any file in the file tree or flat list to open it in an inline split view — file tree on the left, editor on the right
• Full Monaco editor with syntax highlighting for 20+ languages (auto-detected from file extension), line numbers, bracket colorization, smooth scrolling, and multi-cursor support
• Unsaved changes indicator (● dot) in the editor header
• Save button (also Ctrl+S) commits the edited file directly back to GitHub with a custom commit message
• Commit message input appears as a slim bar below the header only when there are unsaved changes
• Pop out button (icon-only, tooltip on hover) opens the full standalone editor window and closes the inline panel

---

Standalone Editor Window (File Manager)

A dedicated editor window that opens as a separate app window — completely detached from the main ZRepoManager window.

• Full VS Code-style layout: collapsible file tree on the left, Monaco editor filling the rest
• File search bar in the tree panel to filter by name across the entire repo
• Click any file in the tree to load and edit it; selected file is highlighted
• Save button + Ctrl+S commits changes to GitHub; shows a success banner with a "View commit" link
• Status bar at the bottom showing the current file path, detected language, and unsaved state
• If the window is already open for that repo, clicking Pop out again focuses the existing window instead of opening a duplicate

---

Markdown Preview (Standalone Editor Window only)

Side-by-side Markdown preview available in the pop-out editor window when a .md file is open.

• Preview button appears in the top bar only for .md files — hidden for all other file types
• Click it to split the view: Monaco editor on the left, live rendered preview on the right
• Preview renders full GitHub-Flavored Markdown (GFM): tables, strikethrough, task lists, code blocks with syntax styling, blockquotes, and inline code
• Switching to a non-.md file automatically closes the preview panel
• Sync scroll toggle (green, on by default) — scrolling either panel scrolls the other proportionally; click to disable for independent scrolling

---

ZRepoManager v0.2.0

Changelog

v0.2.0 — 2026-04-16

New Tabs

---

GitHub Actions

A dedicated tab for managing GitHub Actions workflows across every repository you own — without opening a single browser tab.

• View all workflow files and their current status for any selected repo
• Trigger workflow runs manually, with support for workflow_dispatch input parameters
• Enable or disable individual workflows in bulk across multiple repos at once
• Monitor live run status — queued, in progress, succeeded, failed, cancelled
• Inspect individual run logs broken down by job and step
• Download workflow artifacts directly from any completed run
• Filter runs by branch, status, or workflow name

---

Collaborators

A full collaborator management tab that gives you a clear picture of who has access to what — and lets you act on it at scale.

• View every collaborator across all your repos in one unified list
• See each person's permission level: read, triage, write, maintain, or admin
• Add collaborators to one or multiple repos at once with a chosen permission level
• Remove collaborators in bulk across a selection of repos in a single operation
• Track all pending invitations — see who hasn't accepted yet and cancel invites if needed

---

Webhooks

Full webhook lifecycle management across your entire repository portfolio — create, inspect, debug, and re-deliver without touching the GitHub UI.

• List every webhook attached to any of your repos, with endpoint URL and active status
• Create new webhooks from scratch or from saved templates across multiple repos at once
• Choose which events to subscribe to per webhook (push, pull_request, release, etc.)
• Inspect the full delivery history for any webhook — timestamp, response code, duration
• View the raw request and response payload for any delivery
• Identify failed deliveries at a glance with clear error indicators
• Re-deliver any failed payload with one click to retry without re-triggering the event
• Enable or disable webhooks across a selection of repos in bulk

---

Branches

A branch governance tab that gives you visibility and control over branches across all your repos, without cloning anything locally.

• View the default branch for every repo in your portfolio at a glance
• Rename default branches across many repos in a single batched operation
• Apply branch protection rules to multiple repos at once — required reviews, status checks, push restrictions
• View existing protection rules per branch and update or remove them in bulk
• Detect stale branches — branches with no commit activity beyond a configurable threshold
• List all branches per repo with last-commit date, author, and ahead/behind counts relative to default
• Delete stale or merged branches in bulk with dry-run preview before anything is removed

---

Other Changes

• Added .AppImage as a Linux download format (universal, no install required)
• Removed "Coming Soon" roadmap section from the landing page — all four planned features shipped

What it does

ZRepoManager replaces 50 browser tabs and endless GitHub UI clicking. Connect your GitHub account, load all your repos, and do in seconds what normally takes minutes:

• Select hundreds of repos and archive, delete, rename, transfer, or change visibility in one shot
• Queue complex batches with dry-run preview, grace periods, pause/resume/skip/cancel mid-run
• Browse and manage files inside any repo — rename, move, delete, commit atomically
• Upload local folders straight to a repo without hitting GitHub's 100-file drag limit
• Analyze your portfolio — language stats, growth timeline, health decay, per-repo breakdowns
• Get smart suggestions — surfaces dead repos, empty repos, abandoned forks, near-duplicate names
• Right-click anywhere for context menus on repos, files, and upload entries

---

Features

Repositories & Bulk Operations

• Multi-select with checkboxes, keyboard shortcuts, and Ctrl+K command palette

• Pause, resume, skip, and cancel running queues at any point
• Custom persistent tags on any repo — filter, bulk-apply, survives restarts

File Manager & Upload

• Browse every file inside any repo in a flat list or hierarchical folder tree
• Rename, move, and delete files — all changes staged and committed as one atomic operation
