What's New in CC Blackbox
1.1.1
September 13, 2026
Fixes for busy sessions and flaky connections. A chat now opens with every prompt in place, including the newest ones. A session name on the list updates the moment you send a new prompt or rename the session on the Mac. When the Mac sleeps or the connection drops, the app says Disconnected instead of looking connected, and it reconnects on its own when you return to the app or pull to refresh. Works best with CC Blackbox 4.8.1 or newer on the Mac.
