Shortcuts that fit your workflow
Keyboard shortcuts are now customizable. Open Settings and use the new Keyboard Shortcuts section to change the keys for search, workspace actions, the file tree, Diff, task navigation, comments, and terminal clipboard actions. Pekan prevents conflicting combinations in the same context, shows which bindings are custom, and lets you reset one shortcut or restore every default. The shortcut reference in Help updates immediately to match your choices.
Agent session tabs in the workspace now stay open when you switch projects and return during the same app session. Each project keeps its own set of session tabs and restores the one you were viewing, so moving between boards no longer makes you rebuild your workspace. Agent transcripts can also receive keyboard focus directly, making long conversations easier to navigate without a mouse.
Signed macOS builds can now check for, download, and install future Pekan updates from inside the app. Version 0.211.1 is the bridge release, so it still needs to be installed manually; releases after this one can arrive through the Updates panel. A release only becomes visible after the Windows, macOS, and Linux downloads are all ready, reducing the chance of anyone encountering an incomplete release.
The app shell no longer shows a second outer scrollbar on pages with tall content, and the website now gives new users a clearer path from the homepage to the Getting started guide and explains both manual and agent-assisted task creation.
