Install or upgrade in one line. Pick your platform below; each command pulls the latest release from GitHub.
v0.7.15 Configurable OpenTelemetry endpoint
You can now save your own OpenTelemetry (OTLP) endpoint during `boost init`, so Boost can mirror traces to your team’s own observability backend.
Features (1)
- • `boost init` can now persist your own OpenTelemetry (OTLP) endpoint settings, so Boost can mirror traces to your team’s own observability backend.
v0.7.14 GitHub Copilot support
Boost now works with GitHub Copilot, compressing tool output for Copilot agents automatically.
Features (1)
- • Added GitHub Copilot support, so Boost compresses tool output for Copilot agents automatically.
v0.7.13 Reversible output compression
Compressed output is now fully reversible — recover the original anytime with `boost retrieve`, alongside richer report insights and several fixes.
Features (3)
- • Compressed output is now fully reversible: Boost keeps the original safe, so you can recover it anytime with `boost retrieve <id>` or search inside it with `boost retrieve <id> --query "..."`.
- • `boost report` now includes richer insights from your coding-agent conversations.
- • Added a Discord community link to the docs site.
Bug Fixes (2)
- • Path-qualified executables (e.g. `./node_modules/.bin/tool`) are now wrapped correctly.
- • `pytest` runs now keep startup and import errors visible and resolve relative virtual-env paths.
v0.7.12 Mascot banners and more reliable updates
Friendly frog mascot banners arrive on `boost`, `boost report`, and `boost init`, and `boost update` now reliably finds the latest release.
Features (1)
- • Friendly frog mascot banners now greet you on `boost`, `boost report`, and `boost init`.
Bug Fixes (1)
- • `boost update` now reliably finds and installs the latest release.
v0.7.11 Shell rewrite fix for variable assignments
Boost no longer wraps bare environment-variable assignments, so setting variables behaves exactly as it does without Boost.
Bug Fixes (1)
- • Boost no longer rewrites bare environment-variable assignments (e.g. `FOO=bar`), keeping variable setting consistent with running commands directly.
v0.7.10 Nx CLI support
Boost now recognizes the Nx CLI as a supported entrypoint, so `nx` commands run through Boost’s output compression.
Features (1)
- • Added support for the Nx CLI entrypoint, so `nx` commands run through Boost and benefit from output compression.
v0.7.9 Shell rewrite fix for command substitutions
Boost leaves command substitutions inside assignments untouched, preventing malformed rewrites for commands like `VAR=$(...)`.
Bug Fixes (1)
- • Command substitutions inside assignments (e.g. `VAR=$(...)`) are now skipped by the hook rewrite, preventing malformed commands.
v0.7.7 DISABLE_BOOST passthrough and website release fixes
Boost refined `DISABLE_BOOST` passthrough and telemetry filtering, and shipped website and install reliability improvements.
Features (1)
- • Added a `DISABLE_BOOST` escape hatch: when set, Boost passes supported commands straight through to the underlying tool, so you can opt out for a single command or session.
Changes (1)
- • Removed the legacy Boost skill and the `boost bug-report` command, replacing the workflow with always-on awareness rules for Cursor and Claude agents.
Dependencies (1)
- • Pinned the Vite React plugin for more reliable Bun installs.
v0.7.6 JFrog-hosted release binaries
Boost release binaries are now distributed through JFrog; the one-line install and `boost update` continue to work unchanged.
Features (1)
- • Boost release binaries are now distributed through JFrog. The install script and `boost update` keep working exactly as before.
v0.7.5 PII redaction for CLI traces
Boost added mini-hash based redaction for sensitive CLI trace egress during `boost sync`, with improved tracing consistency for downstream consumers.
Features (1)
- • Applied deterministic mini-hash redaction for developer-machine command values, paths, and repository context when traces leave the machine during `boost sync`.
Bug Fixes (1)
- • Gated PII redaction behind the appropriate flag and preserved rewrite span names to keep trace hierarchies stable.
v0.7.4 Telemetry retention and CI reliability improvements
Boost improved telemetry retention behavior, tightened tracing and filter handling, and hardened CI and agent setup for more reliable syncs.
Features (3)
- • Added an installation option to support installing Boost from a local archive via `BOOST_INSTALL_FROM`.
- • Introduced an offline agent CI harness with a Linux agent matrix for more consistent test coverage.
- • Improved adoption dashboard matching for beta participants.
Performance (1)
- • Capped trace table retention during `boost sync` to prevent local history growth.
Bug Fixes (3)
- • Skipped the integration-test-tracing job in CI so tracing no longer blocks builds on external observability credentials.
- • Removed the compactLines fallback so command output is passed through unchanged when no Go or TOML filter applies.
- • Improved tracing sync behavior by disabling redundant CI completion gating.
Website (1)
- • Updated Boost logo assets and refreshed release notes documentation.
Changes (1)
- • Documented TOML filters with before/after examples for clearer filter behavior.
v0.7.3 Delegated command tracking and update reliability

- • Moved background auto-update checks into `boost sync`, with hourly throttling and a global opt-out.
Bug Fixes (3)
- • Ensured `boost update` installs `boost-sync.sh` and registers the Stop hook when refreshing older installs.
- • Fixed terms-acceptance handling during initialization.
- • Updated delegated-command CI expectations for shell-style `command not found` behavior.
v0.7.2 Local trace persistence and hook sync hardening
Improved local trace persistence, hook sync behavior, and CI trace artifact generation.
Telemetry (4)
