amenbo 0.1.0 — the first release

amenbo’s first release is out. The CLI and the desktop app run on all three of macOS, Windows, and Linux.

What amenbo is

A local, single-world task & project manager. On one machine, a human and an AI drive a single backlog together. Your data lives in one SQLite file on your device — there is no central server, and nothing leaves your machine. You can export everything to JSON / Markdown / CSV at any time.

What’s in this release

• CLI (amenbo) — amenbo shows today’s tasks and the next move; amenbo agent --json is the entry point for AI agents.
• Desktop app — macOS / Linux / Windows, with list and board views.
• Projects and tasks — priority, due dates, dependencies (decompose with dependencies, not subtasks), and classification along dimensions you define.
• Export — all your data out to JSON / Markdown / CSV. No lock-in.
• No network — no update checks, no telemetry. Updates are left to Homebrew / Scoop.

Getting it

macOS (Homebrew):

brew install ShiroDoromoto/amenbo/amenbo             # CLI
brew install --cask ShiroDoromoto/amenbo/amenbo-app  # desktop app

Windows (Scoop):

scoop bucket add amenbo https://github.com/ShiroDoromoto/scoop-amenbo
scoop install amenbo        # CLI
scoop install amenbo-app    # desktop app

On Linux, grab the AppImage / .deb (app) and the CLI binary from the releases.

The desktop app is self-signed, not notarized. On first launch only: on macOS, right-click → Open; on Windows, choose “More info → Run anyway” past SmartScreen.
