Per-product release notes for the three projects. Tagged releases

v1.2.0 — the installable editor SDK
Casual Docs ships as one installable npm package — @casualoffice/docs — with a unified, cross-editor contract: documentMode, an on/off event emitter, an imperative handle (getContent/setContent/executeCommand/undo/redo/focus), a features flag-map, editorExtensions, declarative collab and ai props, and iframe + cspNonce style isolation. The same contract ships in @casualoffice/sheets, so a host wires both editors the same way.

v0.16.0 — the installable spreadsheet SDK
Casual Sheets ships as one installable npm package — @casualoffice/sheets — embedding a full spreadsheet editor with the unified, cross-editor contract: documentMode, an on/off event emitter, an imperative handle (getContent/setContent/executeCommand/undo/redo/focus), a features flag-map, chrome extensions, declarative collab and ai props, and iframe + cspNonce style isolation. The same contract ships in @casualoffice/docs, so a host wires both editors the same way.

v0.0.6 — an on-device AI that actually does the work
The AI release. Both editors gain a genuinely agentic assistant that plans, edits, and reviews multi-step tasks — running on a local model on your own machine, so your documents never leave it. Plus real Model Context Protocol support to plug in external tools, and a batch of reliability and polish fixes. Installs in place over v0.0.5 via signed auto-update.

v0.0.3 — first hotfix
A hotfix on the first public binary, from real-world use: open OpenDocument Text (.odt), stop pipe-separated (.psv) files saving as xlsx, make dark mode follow the launcher across both editors, route Print to a PDF on desktop, and use styled in-app dialogs instead of native ones.

v0.0.2 — first public binary
Casual Desktop ships its first downloadable binary for macOS, Linux, and Windows. A Tauri shell wrapping the Casual Docs and Casual Sheets web cores verbatim — single-user, offline, native file dialogs. Signed in-app auto-update from GitHub Releases.

v0.0.4 — rename on disk, theme that sticks
A second round of fixes from real use: rename now renames the file on disk, the in-editor light/dark choice survives a restart, the document-open error banner is gone, and the "number stored as text" toast reads properly. Installs in place over v0.0.3 via signed auto-update.

v0.0.5 — files stay on disk
A storage-hygiene release: on the desktop app your documents are no longer mirrored into browser storage. The file on disk and its on-disk recovery sidecar are the only source of truth — matching the local-only, files-stay-on-disk model. Installs in place over v0.0.4 via signed auto-update.

v0.3.3 — personal mode on root-owned bind mounts
Patch release. Personal mode crashed with SqliteError: unable to open database file (SQLITE_CANTOPEN) when /data was a bind mount to a root-owned host directory. The image chowned /data at build time, but a bind mount keeps its host ownership at runtime, so the node user could not create users.db. The container now starts as root, an entrypoint chowns the data dir to node, then drops to node via su-exec before launching the server — named volumes, fresh bind mounts, and --user overrides all still work, and the server still runs unprivileged.

v0.3.2 — Docker refresh, Univer 0.25, CasualOffice rebrand
Docker app refresh — rebuilds and republishes the image so docker pull casualoffice/sheets:latest works again, and folds in the editor + branding work since 0.3.1. The Univer fork is upgraded 0.24 → 0.25 under the hood. The project is renamed to the CasualOffice org: Docker image casualoffice/sheets, npm scope @casualoffice/*, in-app URLs, and the sheet.casualoffice.org subdomain. Adds an Excel active-cell crosshair highlight and a zen full-screen cell editor.

v0.3.1 — personal-mode boot fix + SDK xlsx extraction
Patch release. Fixes the Docker image so personal mode (Phase C) actually boots — the named data volume was root-owned and the server, dropping to USER node, could not open users.db, so every signup 502d. Default CASUAL_PERSONAL_MODE reverts to none so the anonymous-room demo flow works out of the box. The xlsx import path is extracted into packages/sdk and published as @casualoffice/sheets/xlsx so hosts can load .xlsx into a Univer snapshot without vendoring the parser.

v0.3.0 — personal mode, WOPI host, and the SDK
Minor release rolling up two large feature batches plus the Univer-fork perf revamp. Phase C adds personal mode — per-user file storage, bcrypt + SQLite auth, HMAC session cookies, file CRUD over HTTP, profiles, and an admin surface. Phase D adds a stateless WOPI host so Casual Sheets embeds inside a WOPI-speaking platform. A new @casualoffice/sheets SDK ships the signing + iframe postMessage protocol. The Univer fork moves to a vendored submodule with five perf patches.

v0.2.0 — production-readiness
Six engineering streams that turn v0.1's "real persistence + self-host story" into a workload you can put real users on. Co-edit divergence becomes recoverable (transient-vs-permanent classifier, retry with backoff, click-to-expand dead-letter). The gateway gets per-IP throttling + a hard room cap with LRU eviction. First measured baseline (~1900 req/s, p99 < 3 ms) + a capacity model with five deployment tiers (Solo $5/mo → Sharded linear). Toast surface across the app. Typed Univer facade — 27 caller-side as-any sites eliminated.

v0.2.1 — drawing-sync fix + measured WS ceiling
Patch release closing the last two known production-readiness gaps. (1) A drawing (image or chart) inserted by peer A did not appear on peer B; root cause was the bridge's deepRewriteUnitId only swapping unitIds at object keys, missing the unitId embedded at position [0] of the json1 op path (positional array). New rewriteJson1OpPathUnitId helper fixes it. (2) WS-side load harness lands with measured numbers: 1500 concurrent WS clients × 30 s, sustained 350 updates/s aggregate, p99 broadcast latency 3.2 ms, zero dropped records. The capacity model's "~500 active docs latency knee" prediction was ~10× too conservative; real binding constraint at that size is RAM, not broadcast CPU.

v0.0.3 — 100% fidelity + verified co-edit
Round-trip fidelity hits 44/44 fixtures pristine = 100%. Live co-editing verified end-to-end with a 5-second smoke (multi-peer text fan-out, awareness, live filename rename). New: page color, wordCompat React prop, drawing-fidelity audit, mobile format chip.

v0.1.1 — patch stability
Patch release: Excel-style typed input (currency · percent · negative-in-parens · non-USD symbols) parses as numbers; formula engine triggers initial recalc on workbook mount + swap; mobile lane regressions cleaned up (desktop toolbar hides at ≤480 px, autosave banner no longer clipped); e2e stability fixes that unblock long CI runs.

v0.1.0 — WOPI host, JWT auth, admin panel
The first version-bumped release. Real persistence via WOPI (memory · local · S3 · Postgres), JWT-secured access with role + permission + feature claims, a runtime admin panel for branding · storage · networking · room limits · auth providers · webhooks, OCI image labels + rolling-tag scheme, complex pivot cache passthrough (audit 54/54 pristine), and a full self-hosting + customization docs section on casualoffice.org.

v0.0.2 — public preview
Casual Docs opens the public preview. Home gallery with 14 real .docx templates, stateless Go gateway implementing the y-websocket protocol in ~120 LOC, three-way fidelity harness vs LibreOffice and OnlyOffice, 26 of 39 fixtures round-trip pristine.

v0.0.3 — Phase 2 co-edit shipped
Hocuspocus server + Yjs bridge, room lifecycle, share URL, password-protected rooms, view-only role, Redis persistence option, joiner fast-path, op-log compaction, and the single-port self-hosted Docker image.
