Finch 1.4.2

Official Windows support, plus refinements to multi-window, deep links, and usage stats.

Back to changelog

New

  • Official Windows support: Windows x64 and ia32 installers are now available for direct download from the website.
  • Multi-window upgrade: smarter URI routing across windows, with stream events broadcast to every window viewing the same session.
  • finch:// deep links: jump straight to a specific session via a URI scheme.
  • Usage stats revamp: a unified layout with Settings, plus caching and skeleton loading.
  • Grep / Edit tool improvements: Grep gained more output control options; Edit now protects against writes without a prior read.

Improvements

  • Fixed title bar, shortcut, path, and window chrome issues on Windows and Linux.
  • rg now prefers Finch's bundled ripgrep, auto-repairing it when missing and falling back to the system tool.
  • Removed the Google Fonts CDN dependency in favor of locally hosted fonts.
  • The memory system now auto-archives old entries when over capacity instead of erroring out.
  • Improved provider and built-in model ordering, and more accurate detection of custom models.
