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.

v0.18.0: 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.

v0.16.0: A Hosted Plugin Registry, Kubernetes Your Way, and Backups That Encrypt Themselves

v0.10.1: Pagination Fix, Context Menu Actions, and Postgres Bindings
