What's New in HerdrChat
0.15.0
October 21, 2026
• Grok and Antigravity chats: read their conversations, each titled by its session. • Answer Grok's permission prompts from the phone, and use its slash commands in the composer. • Codex chats show the tools Codex runs itself and every phase of a reply, and follow a rewound conversation. • Notifications from Grok, Pi and OMP chats come with a preview. • An agent the app cannot read yet is listed as a terminal row. • Installing an integration on herdr 0.9 no longer reads as a failure, and a downloaded file no longer says "Downloading" under the share sheet.
