aac96bb5

Features

Major framework upgrade: React Native 0.83, Expo 55, Zero 0.26, Drizzle v1, React 19.2, and Vite 8 with multi-stage Docker builds using the official bun image, oxlint TypeScript plugin, and per-user zero kvStore
Maestro native E2E test flows for app launch, login, and comment posting with testIDs added to key components for element targeting
Zero error boundary with user-facing retry UI that shows sync error details and a retry button, replacing the previous silent failure mode
Zero connection state monitoring with disconnect/reconnect toast notifications and auto-reload/reset actions when client data errors occur
on-zero createZeroServer accepts an optional external connection pool for non-standard environments like Cloudflare Workers with PGlite
env:update rewritten with preset system supporting custom files, strategy auto-detection for yaml/js/dotenv/ts files, and merged with generate-env into a single command

Improvements

Native auth restructured to happen after login for better performance, avoiding zero sync errors before the splash screen finishes
Docker switched from bind-mounted directories to named volumes, fixing permission issues when host UID/GID doesn’t match the container user
on-zero permission and ensure error checks use string-based name comparison instead of instanceof, fixing false negatives caused by Vite’s dependency optimization creating duplicate module instances
Zero concurrent mode fix: replaced use() with useContext() for React 19 concurrent safety, and disabled unstable_batchedUpdates on native since React 19 auto-batches (passing it caused re-entrant work loop errors)
Switched from op-sqlite to expo-sqlite for zero native storage, and removed incompatible packages (expo-glass-effect, react-native-fast-squircle, vxrn/expo-plugin) for React Native 0.83 compatibility
All oxlint warnings resolved across codebase with proper ignore patterns
react-native StyleSheet dependency removed by inlining absoluteFill across 9 files
Links now inherit font properties from parent components
findStragglers uses pgrep instead of ps for sandbox compatibility
tko run --no-root fixed to treat the flag as a leaf node, preventing duplicate script execution when parent and child both resolve the same scripts
Loosened peer dependency ranges to prevent bundler module duplication
Force clear session on auth error for clean recovery
Playwright test caching added with increased timeout
Removed duplicate useUser hook in favor of useUserById from features/user
Minio removed from deploy configuration
Integration tests updated with API-based SSR permissions verification

Bug fixes and chores (19)

Week of March 9, 2026

4cbf2849

Features

on-zero awaitEffects option for server mutations lets async tasks be awaited before returning instead of fire-and-forget, with authData moved into an options object for a cleaner API
PermissionError class for typed permission denials, letting callers distinguish expected access denials from unexpected errors via error name
Notification close button

Improvements

serverWhere SSR evaluation fixed by converting module-level state to a global singleton, preventing Vite’s module duplication from creating separate server/client state instances that caused permission filters to not apply during SSR
on-zero server-side detection improved with isServerRuntime() helper that auto-detects Node/Bun without relying on Vite environment variables, fixing mutator permission checks outside Vite contexts
on-zero code generation now includes read-only models (those without a mutate export), ensuring Zero schema registration works for all tables
on-zero code generation handles Symbol.iterator and other symbol-keyed TypeScript properties without crashing by skipping synthetic __@ prefixed names
Mutator error logging gated behind DEBUG flag, and expected permission rejections no longer logged as errors to reduce log noise
Loosened peer dependency ranges to prevent bundler module duplication issues
Skills docs now require frontmatter, fixed stale symlinks, and removed tko-scripts autogeneration

Bug fixes and chores (11)

Week of March 2, 2026

8f3883ce

Features

on-zero deep TypeScript to validator generation - automatically generates runtime validators from your mutation argument types, with full support for nested objects, arrays, unions, and optional fields
on-zero ControlQueries component for disabling query subtrees - wrap parts of your component tree to conditionally disable all Zero queries underneath
on-zero getQuery() for accessing raw query objects outside React components
on-zero setAuthData exported from public API for manual auth state control
on-zero dynamic environment state replaces static isServer detection, fixing edge cases where server/client detection was wrong

@take-out/run package extracted from scripts for cleaner separation of process management concerns
on-zero models can now omit mutators entirely for read-only tables
on-zero HMR boundary moved from generated code to vite plugin, so generated file changes no longer trigger full page reloads
integration tests stabilized with API-based login instead of UI-driven login and proper wait conditions
uncloud deploy containers (migrate, minio-init) kept alive with healthchecks so dependent services don’t start too early
PTY runner kills entire process group to prevent orphaned processes
SIGHUP handled to prevent orphaned processes when terminal closes
on-zero crash-prevention added to postgres error handling in zero server
on-zero permission throws now treated as denials with dev-mode warnings for unexpected errors, preventing crashes from misbehaving permission functions
on-zero permission check fixed for upsert operations when the target row doesn’t exist yet, matching the existing insert behavior
on-zero environment detection in SSR mutators uses the creation-time value instead of a potentially stale global state

Week of February 3, 2026

0918f5d1

Features

Push notification system - notification model, queries, server actions, device registration, and in-app notification list with real-time updates
Notification listener and emitter architecture for decoupled notification handling across the app
Notification prompt flow with persistent storage to avoid re-prompting users
Intercepting routes for feed detail - posts open in a modal overlay on web while preserving direct URL navigation
Push notification toggle in settings
cmd() script helper - tagged template API for cleaner CLI scripts with auto-generated --help, typed argument parsing, and built-in run() context
run() function for one-shot non-reactive Zero queries - defaults to server fetch ('complete'), pass 'cached' for local-only reads
usePermission now supports permissionStrategy option - choose between 'optimistic' (evaluate client-side), 'optimistic-deny' (false until server confirms), or 'optimistic-allow' (true until server confirms)
on-zero run() works in both queries and mutations, accepting regular query functions alongside synced queries
Local MCP server config added (.claude/mcp.json) for bun-based tooling setup
Burnt and Zeego native integrations added to setup
Type-aware oxlint via oxlint-tsgolint - linter now uses TypeScript type information for more accurate rules
Dev-only docs support in skills generator - documentation can be flagged as dev-only so it’s available during development but excluded from production builds

Upgrades

Tamagui upgraded to 2.0 RC6 with theme and font refinements
One upgraded to 1.6.1 with HTML cache fixes
Zero upgraded to 0.25.12 with less noisy logging

Improvements

Auth simplified - removed JWT token validation (leftover from Tauri integration), streamlined to session-based auth with cleaner Zero push/pull handlers
on-zero permissions no longer require explicit export - permissions are now read directly from the model definition
on-zero usePermission moved to server-side named query to work with Zero 0.25’s materialized query model - each table gets its own materialized permission view instead of one shared query
on-zero generate --after command now runs on initial watch startup and scopes formatting to only generated files, preventing watcher feedback loops
on-zero generate uses a cache directory for output so --after never triggers file writes in the source tree, avoiding watcher feedback loops with linting
nested serverWhere calls inside permission builders now evaluate correctly on the client - previously inner serverWhere was no-op’d, breaking compound permission checks
zeroServer.query() now actually executes the query via tx.run() instead of returning the query builder
all scripts rewritten to use cmd() API - 71 files migrated from raw exec/spawn to typed, self-documenting commands with automatic help generation
scripts directory renamed from ci/ to ops/ (avoids conflict with bun’s built-in bun ci command), and ops ci renamed to ops release
CI pipeline split into separate test.ts and release.ts - test runner extracted for independent use, release just orchestrates test + build + deploy
Env vars simplified - VITE_PUBLIC_ZERO_SERVER and WEB_DOMAIN/ZERO_DOMAIN replaced with just VITE_ZERO_HOSTNAME and VITE_WEB_HOSTNAME (hostname only, protocol constructed at runtime)
Zero env vars centralized through package.json env defaults -> auto-generated .env -> docker env_file instead of hardcoded values in docker-compose
run-frontend-dev.ts merged into run-frontend.ts --dev flag, eliminating duplicate script
CLI startup made faster by lazy-importing dependencies instead of importing everything up-front
package dependencies made lighter - moved to optional peerDependencies so consumers don’t install everything
helpers moved into packages/scripts/ for reuse across projects (github-tail, multipass, parse-env-file, process-compose-env, ssh, uncloud helpers)
consistent fs.xyz import pattern adopted across all scripts instead of mixed destructured imports
Zero version sync extracted to shared script and removed from env pipeline to simplify postinstall
env:update now resolves $dep: version references as fallbacks in CI config, so CI no longer depends on manually-set GitHub secrets for dependency versions
env-server.ts path resolution now tries both src/constants/ and src/server/ locations for compatibility across project structures
compose env processing improved - handles multi-line values (PEM keys) and quotes values containing yaml-breaking special characters (:, #, {, etc.)
migration schema resolution uses public.migrations explicitly to avoid conflicts when a pg schema matching the db user exists
React 19.1 captureOwnerStack used instead of broken __CLIENT_INTERNALS internal for component stack traces
release publish now pins workspace:* deps to actual versions during pack and restores them after, preventing broken publishes
permissions integration test suite added covering mutation guards and query-based permission checks
HotUpdater enhanced with dynamic server URL handling and crash history tracking API
Hot-updater debug info component shows update status, bundle ID, and version info in settings on native
GradientBlurView and PageLayout split into separate native/web files to prevent native deps from leaking into web
TabBar refactored to use View instead of Animated.View with improved glass effect border radius
ProfileEditPage cleaned up - removed transition effects, improved button accessibility
Comment flow integration test added for full create/verify/cleanup lifecycle
Feed detail page refactored with cleaner layout
Default animation durations removed from animationsApp config
Default username display changed from “No name” to “Unknown”
Stricter tsconfig across all packages catches more type issues
Dev cleanup script added for robust process and port cleanup
peerDependenciesMeta added for optional react and @rocicorp/zero in helpers
update-local-env renamed to generate-env since it’s used in CI too, not just locally
sync-prompt renamed to sync-repo for clarity
