January 2026 delivered a major modernization of waveterm's routing, remote job capabilities, and core tooling with a strong focus on reliability, performance, and developer productivity. Key outcomes include a WSH Router Core Refactor enabling link-based routing with support for unauthenticated links, elimination of legacy proxies and auth-token quirks, and enhanced debugging/logging. OSC handlers and pinned tabs were removed to reduce surface area and maintenance cost. A new Persistent Terminal Sessions capability and a comprehensive Job Manager framework now support checkpointing, streaming broker integration, and long-lived remote jobs. Foundational RPC streaming primitives with windowing and a custom circular buffer (cirbuf) SetEffectiveWindow establish the groundwork for scalable RPC data paths. Router/domain socket enhancements enable routing by linkid, untrusted-link handling, and a new domain-socket mode with an updated connection controller. Core tooling and dependencies were upgraded (Go 1.25.6; JS packages), Monaco editor cleanup, and build stability improvements (fixing compile errors, removing unused constants). UI refinements (Confirm on Quit, tab indicators) and governance work (clear contribution guidelines, deprecation messaging) round out the effort. These changes collectively reduce risk, improve reliability and security, and unlock longer-running remote workflows and scalable routing for the product.
