# Changelog

> What's new in Hiveku

## May 2026

### GitHub source-of-truth model

* When GitHub is connected to a project, GitHub is now the canonical source of code -- the Hiveku database is a working buffer reconciled against GitHub at every deploy
* AI chat sessions auto-commit to GitHub at session end. A 10-second debounce batches back-to-back chat turns into a single `hiveku[bot]` commit, prefixed `[hiveku] Sync from Hiveku`
* Bot commits never trigger an auto-deploy. The auto-deploy toggles continue to fire only for pushes made outside Hiveku (your laptop, VSCode, external collaborators, GitHub Actions, etc.)
* Every deploy starts with a pre-deploy sync. If the database and GitHub have BOTH modified the same file since the last sync, the deploy is paused with a conflict notice -- you pick which version wins, then retry. Previously these conflicts could silently overwrite work
* External MCP agents (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) gain a `project_commit` invariant -- tool descriptions now state that committing is required for persistence on GitHub-connected projects, with explicit warnings about the auto-overwrite risk
* See [GitHub Integration](/integrations/github) for the full model and [Deployments](/publishing/deployments) for how the pre-deploy sync gate works

### Native Mobile (Expo) project type

* New project type — pick **Native Mobile** in the new-project dialog to scaffold a real Expo Router app with Supabase auth, items CRUD, NativeWind, and protected route groups; Supabase database is provisioned automatically
* Per-project Fly.io preview running Metro + React Native Web inside an iPhone/Android phone-frame chrome (11 device presets, landscape mode, accent color picker — selection persists per-project in localStorage)
* AI agent trained on Expo Router + NativeWind conventions; knows the difference between an OTA-deliverable JS edit and a native-dependency change that requires a Build & Ship
* Mobile Credentials page — connect your Apple Developer (`.p8` ASC API key) and Google Play (service account JSON) accounts; live preflight validation via signed JWTs, encrypted storage in AWS Secrets Manager
* One-click Build & Ship — kicks off parallel iOS + Android EAS builds, auto-creates the iOS App Store Connect record on first build, and auto-submits to TestFlight + Play Console Internal track
* Build cancel button, email notifications on success/failure, decoded Apple/Google error messages with **Fix with AI** deeplink (\~60% of common failures resolvable end-to-end)
* OTA Update channels (Preview + Production) with atomic Promote button; bundle size warnings (amber at 75 MB, red at 100 MB) with per-package breakdown
* App Store Assets generator — one form turns app name + tagline + accent color into a 1024×1024 icon, splash screen, and store-listing copy (subtitle, description, keywords)
* GitHub integration parity with web projects — Build & Ship tags the commit, AI edits auto-commit, `.env` excluded from sync
* See the [Mobile Quickstart](/mobile/quickstart) to ship your first build in \~60 minutes

### Design Studio — Layered Motion Graphics

* New animated design surface at `/dashboard/marketing/design/` — every text, shape, image, and CTA stays an editable Fabric layer while motion plays
* Animation is a property of layers (not a baked MP4), so dragging the headline mid-playback, retyping any word, or swapping a color via the picker keeps motion working
* AI design agent generates the static frame using your brand kit, then animates each layer with coherent strategies — Cascade Fade-Up, Kinetic, Hero Scale + Fade, or Slideshow
* 14 enter/exit presets + 4 loop motions (pulse, wiggle, breathe, rotate-slow) shared across the AI tool, the per-layer Style panel editor, and the MP4 export compositor
* 18 layered animated starter templates spanning Instagram / Reel / TikTok / YouTube / email-banner surfaces — fully editable from frame zero, no template lock-in
* Per-layer animation editor in the right Style panel with debounced sliders (250ms), auto-pause on selection, and snapshot-and-restore runtime that prevents drift
* Canvas-level Animation panel with one-click strategy buttons that preserve existing loop motions when re-strategizing
* MP4 export via Remotion render worker; PNG export client-side for static designs
* See the [Design Studio docs](/design/overview) for full coverage
