v0.23.0: The PostgreSQL Plugin Takes Over From the Built-in Driver, SQL Files Open in Editor Tabs, and a Data Folder You Can Sync

v0.23.0 lets plugins ship their own Visual EXPLAIN parsers, which is what the new SQL Server plugin (1.0.0-beta.1) needs, opens, edits and saves .sql files in editor tabs without executing them, moves the whole data folder to any location such as an iCloud Drive or Dropbox folder, deprecates the built-in PostgreSQL driver in favour of the PostgreSQL plugin with a reversible, per-connection or bulk migration flow, fixes two bugs that swallowed keystrokes in the SQL editor, and carries community fixes for dump escaping, connections.json field loss, the PostgreSQL pool size and shortcuts firing during IME composition.

v0.22.0: Themes That Follow Your OS, Spreadsheet Selection in the Grid, and a Titlebar That Gets Out of the Way on Tiling Window Managers

v0.22.0 adds a Follow System theme mode with separate light and dark picks that switch live with the OS appearance, Google Sheets style keyboard selection in the data grid (Shift+Arrow ranges, Ctrl+Space columns, Shift+Space rows, header click to select a column), automatic hiding of native window decorations on Hyprland, Sway, i3 and other tiling window managers, a round of notebook fixes, and community patches for the production banner, PostgreSQL test connections with client certificates, SQLite text BLOBs and MySQL routines in non-default schemas.

v0.21.0: Fold Your SQL, Pick Your Page Size Per Tab, and Postgres Client Certificates That Actually Get Sent

v0.21.0 adds dialect-aware folding with hover previews to the SQL editor, a per-tab rows-per-page selector that overrides the global limit (including an All option), PostgreSQL mTLS client-certificate authentication, cancellable plugin installs, a safety-confirmation countdown that is now opt-in and shared between destructive and production guards, an SSL-mode migration that finally runs in the MCP process, and a batch of grid, export and import fixes from the community.

v0.20.0: A Command Palette That Knows Which Pane You're In, Paste That Works Like a Spreadsheet, and PostgreSQL Moves Out of the Core

v0.20.0 replaces the quick navigator with a scope-aware command palette, teaches the data grid to paste spreadsheet ranges as staged edits, moves PostgreSQL out of the core and into a standalone plugin at full parity with the built-in driver (the first step in migrating every built-in driver to the plugin pipeline), adds inline hex preview and editing for BLOBs, and makes rows with binary primary keys deletable on MySQL.

v0.19.0: Connections That Know They're Production, Columns That Keep Secrets, and Tables Without a Primary Key You Can Finally Edit

v0.18.0: Users and Privileges, a Connection Test That Tells You Where It Failed, and a Data Grid You Can Actually Select

v0.18.0 adds MySQL/MariaDB user and privilege management, rebuilds the connection modal around a real SSH test with classified errors and a step-by-step diagnostics log, lets a connection browse every database without picking any, gives the data grid keyboard navigation and honest copy scopes, exports the ER diagram as Mermaid or DBML, and teaches PostgreSQL to edit hstore and render expression indexes.
