release.yml:
- The header comment block and dry_run input description still referenced
the PR-and-merge step that was removed in 53c2e45. Updated both to
describe the direct-commit flow.
runtime.test.ts:
- The runtime resolver's npm-package branch (step 2 — the primary path
after npx kandev@latest or npm install -g) had no positive coverage. In
the test env, require.resolve for @kdlbs/runtime-* throws
MODULE_NOT_FOUND, so the existing tests only exercised step 1 (env var)
and step 3 (cache via --runtime-version), plus the no-runtime-found
fallthrough.
Added two tests using vi.spyOn on Module._resolveFilename to point at a
fake bundle inside tmpDir:
- happy path: installed npm package resolves to source=npm with the
right bundleDir
- corrupt-bundle path: validateBundle errors propagate (rather than
being swallowed and falling through to "no runtime found")
These cover the real-world scenarios users will hit on either install
channel.
Tests: 132 → 134.
Kandev
Manage tasks. Orchestrate agents. Review changes. Ship value.
Quick Start
Homebrew
brew install kdlbs/kandev/kandev
kandev
NPX (requires npm 7+)
npx kandev@latest
Either install path resolves a platform-matched runtime (Go backend, agentctl, Next.js standalone web), launches the backend + web, and opens your browser. Data (worktrees, SQLite DB) is stored in ~/.kandev by default.
Version and Updates
The package manager owns the runtime version. kandev@X.Y.Z ships with the matching runtime.
- Update via Homebrew:
brew upgrade kandev - Update via npm/npx:
npx kandev@latestornpm install -g kandev@latest - Print CLI version:
kandev --version
Advanced: pin a specific runtime tag
--runtime-version <tag> downloads a specific GitHub release runtime instead of using the installed one. For debugging compatibility issues only:
kandev --runtime-version v0.16.0
