Remocode v1.1.2 — Via Mode Fixes, Interactive Questions & Auto-Update

Major improvements to Telegram via mode, interactive question detection, and a fully working auto-updater. Plus a fresh new tagline.

This release packs a lot of fixes into a small version bump. Via mode is now significantly more reliable, interactive question detection works properly, and the auto-updater is fully operational.

Via Mode Menu Selection — Fixed

Previously, selecting numbered menu options (like Claude Code's tool approval prompts) through Telegram didn't work correctly. Typing 1, 2, or 3 — or pressing the corresponding Telegram buttons — would often select the wrong option.

The problem: Ink-based CLI apps (like Claude Code) use a cursor-based menu. Sending all arrow keys at once only registered the first one. On top of that, the menu wraps around — pressing Up from option 1 jumps to the last option, not staying at 1.

The fix: Each arrow key is now sent individually with a small delay between them. The selection logic is simple: send (N-1) down arrows from the top, then Enter. No more wrong selections.

This works for both:

  • Typing a number in the Telegram chat (e.g. 3)
  • Pressing an inline button (e.g. the [3] button)

Interactive Question Detection — Full Output + Buttons

When interactive question detection is ON, the app now shows the full terminal output (same as when it's OFF) and adds interactive buttons below it. Previously, it would truncate the output — breaking the reading flow.

The detection feature now has a (BETA) label in Settings to set the right expectations.

Help Command Cleanup

The help command in Telegram was cleaned up:

  • Removed outdated commands (on <name> write, <name>:<cmd>)
  • Added peek command (visible even outside via mode)
  • Better organized command grouping

Auto-Updater — Now Working

The auto-updater now works end-to-end:

  • Primary: Downloads from our CDN (dl.remocode.org)
  • Fallback: GitHub Releases if CDN is unreachable
  • Differential downloads via blockmap (only downloads what changed — typically ~4% of the full binary)
  • 12-hour periodic checks + manual check from Settings
Note: Auto-update only works between properly signed releases. If you're on a dev build, install the latest DMG manually from [dl.remocode.org](https://dl.remocode.org/releases/Remocode-latest.dmg).

New Tagline

Changed from *"Your remote cockpit for vibe coding"* to:

Remote Your AI Coding Session

Updated across the login screen, onboarding, about modal, and app metadata.
