Pick a thinking level, type anywhere, and fewer sign‑in annoyances

2026-04-23 — v1.0.4

Runner now lets you pick a thinking level for each conversation, or set a default for the workspace — from quick, lightweight replies to deep, deliberate reasoning. Choose the one that matches the task and move on.

What changed:

• Thinking level: Pick how much effort Runner spends on a reply per conversation, or set a default for the workspace — from quick replies to deeper, deliberate responses.
• Composer: Start typing anywhere in a conversation and your keystrokes go into the message box so you can keep the flow.
• Move to Applications (macOS): The first time you open Runner from Downloads or a mounted disk image, the app offers to move itself into your Applications folder.
• Sign in: After finishing sign‑in in your browser you return to the running Runner window instead of opening a second one.
• Connection recovery: If your local sign‑in state ever gets stuck, you can reset it from within the app.
• Skills Library: Cleaner spacing and a simplified phone‑number section in settings for a tidier layout and fewer distractions when configuring skills and contacts.

Why it matters: You can match Runner's effort to the task, type without interruptions, and spend less time on sign‑in or layout annoyances. Small changes, but they keep conversations moving and reduce friction when you need Runner to actually help.
