Refactored the consent handling logic for both terminal and desktop sessions to utilize a unified requestRemoteConsent method. This change simplifies the consent process, ensuring consistent behavior across different session types. Additionally, introduced default session ID handling and improved logging for consent status. Updated related payload structures to include operator names for better tracking.
- Added a new API endpoint for enrolled devices to raise help requests via REST when not connected to CDAP.
- Improved the device enrollment process by issuing a device token during status polls, allowing for seamless recovery of CDAP authentication.
- Enhanced error handling for device token validation and ensured proper responses for various failure scenarios.
- Updated the build process to support dual UI binaries for Linux (X11 and Wayland) and included a session-aware launcher.
- Refactored the installation script to accommodate the new Linux UI bundle structure, improving deployment flexibility.
- Updated the system tray icon setup to use a platform-appropriate resource method, improving compatibility across operating systems.
- Introduced a new function to provide a tray icon resource based on the platform, ensuring proper icon display on Windows.
- Enhanced the installation process to include copying the Mesa OpenGL library for better GUI support on Windows, particularly in virtual environments.
- Updated the build worker to stage the OpenGL library alongside the application, improving user experience for GUI operations.
- Refactored command-line options to clarify GUI usage and improve overall application behavior in headless environments.
- Updated the UI to utilize a new status handling method, enhancing the display of connection and enrollment statuses.
- Introduced a status dot indicator for better visual feedback on connection state.
- Refactored the Go toolchain installation script to verify the presence of the JSON package instead of PNG, improving compatibility checks.
- Enhanced error handling in the agent build worker to streamline the build process and ensure proper environment setup.
- Added a new function to install the Go toolchain if it's missing or broken, ensuring proper setup for support-agent Generator builds.
- Enhanced the agentBuildWorker to check for a healthy Go binary and requeue builds that failed due to a broken Go installation.
- Updated the build environment configuration to prioritize a working Go toolchain, improving the reliability of the build process.
- Added a new function to stage the Go support-agent source for Generator builds, ensuring proper setup without a full git checkout.
- Refactored connection handling to improve TLS configuration, allowing for insecure connections based on environment variables.
- Updated UI elements for better user experience, including resizing and wrapping labels for status messages.
- Enhanced the enrollment process with improved error handling and status updates.
- Introduced new environment variables and command-line options for running the agent without a GUI, catering to environments like VMs or RDP.
- Updated README and build scripts to reflect new features and requirements.
App.tsx now loads the per-deployment branding profile (get_branding IPC) during boot and applies it to the document: primary/accent colors map onto the existing --accent CSS variables, product name becomes the document title, and an optional logo data URL becomes the favicon. New src/lib/branding.ts exposes loadBranding()/getBranding() with safe fallbacks to built-in BetterDesk defaults so unbranded developer builds still render.
install-build-toolchain.sh now installs the x86_64-pc-windows-msvc Rust target instead of windows-gnu, because the build worker cross-compiles Windows installers via cargo-xwin (MSVC ABI). The previous gnu target caused every windows/exe build to fail with 'Target x86_64-pc-windows-msvc is not installed'.

Add a new auth package implementing password hashing/verification (PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256), a random-string generator, and unit tests. Update .gitignore to catch additional sensitive filenames and to ignore legacy dev scripts, migrations, templates and build artifacts. Remove many legacy/dev helper scripts (dev_modules/, scripts/legacy/, build_windows.sh, migrations/, templates/) and add web-nodejs reset-password scripts and a session secret placeholder. Changes consolidate authentication utilities and clean up old/unused development tooling and noise in the repo.
Add a new betterdesk-server Go codebase (server, api, auth, db, relay, signal, metrics, audit, ratelimit, proto, tools, tests) and related deployment/migration scripts. Add a comprehensive SECURITY_AUDIT_2026-03-01 report and .gitattributes; update copilot-instructions (ALL-IN-ONE v2.4.0), README, VERSION, Dockerfiles, scripts, docker-compose and entrypoint. Large updates to web-nodejs (translations, routes, services, frontend assets and middleware) and numerous new utilities; remove legacy Flask web files and archive hbbs-patch-v2 artifacts. Prepares repository for PostgreSQL support, DB migration tooling and the new Go server as the production backend.
Introduce BetterDesk v2.0.0 by adding interactive ALL‑IN‑ONE installer/manager scripts for Docker, Linux and Windows (betterdesk-docker.sh, betterdesk.sh, betterdesk.ps1). Bump VERSION to 2.0.0 and update README and .github/copilot-instructions.md to document the new workflows and quickstart. Move older helpers into scripts/legacy/, add a legacy README and adjust template paths. The new docker script includes compose generation, image build/start/stop, backup/restore, repair/validation, admin password management, diagnostics and uninstall routines.
Renamed versioned files (app_v14.py, script_v15.js, index_v15.html) to generic names (app.py, script.js, index.html) and updated all references accordingly. Added missing columns (updated_at, deleted_at) to the peer table and improved database schema checks and fixes in scripts. Introduced fix_peer_columns.sh for quick peer table repair, enhanced Python dependency installation logic, and updated documentation to reflect these changes. Removed obsolete deployment script and incremented version to v1.5.2.
Removed obsolete v14 static and template files, and deleted legacy scripts and performance config. Added scripts/deploy_v15.sh for clean v15 deployment. Updated app_v14.py to support cache busting via version injection and cache headers. Updated documentation and troubleshooting to reflect new manual key permission steps and streamlined upgrade process. Bumped version to v1.5.1.
