Veb 0.2

Reference archive: this page documents the original Yab browser. Features, platforms and release dates here do not describe the current Veb prototype. Veb release plans →

Ask your agent right from the field, mail in a space of its own, a new welcome, live folders, routines, and screen sharing from Veb's own box.

Added

  • Ask your agent from ⌘T or ⌘L: under any words, Search, Ask and Task, with what your words read as on top. A question is answered right in the field, with follow-ups, and knows the page you're on and what you read.

  • Mail, off until you turn it on in Settings › Mail: your Gmail in a space of its own, kept on this Mac and sorted by what each mail wants, with replies written ahead for mail that needs you.

  • Remind Me and Send Later on a thread, Undo Send, and Do It, which hands a mail to your agent.

  • The code a site mails or texts you hangs under the box that asks for it, and Return puts it in.

  • The mail pin says how many need you, and ⇧⌘I goes to mail and back.

  • Agents read, search and draft your mail through Veb's own tools; sending stays yours.

  • A new welcome: Veb's own parts at their real size, from the first glass to Start Browsing.

  • Veb's own menu at the foot of the box, ⇧⌘K: Send Feedback, Changelog, Keyboard Shortcuts, updates and About.

  • Hold ⇧ over a link for what it is about, in a tip under the pointer.

  • A newer Veb is written by hand beside the Update button.

  • Live folders: your GitHub pull requests kept up to date in a folder of their own, and folders fed by a GitHub search, Linear issues, Figma, Notion, Google Drive, YouTube subscriptions or any site's feed.

  • Routines in Settings › AI, made the way commands are: a prompt, the tabs it works in and how often; what they find comes to ⌘T, the chat column and ⌘J.

  • Share a tab, a window or the screen from Veb's own box when a page asks, as Chrome does.

  • A call's floating window picks the microphone, speaker and camera, and shares the screen.

  • Resting on a pin lists what is there: today's meetings with Join, its live folder's tabs, or the pages you last read on the site.

  • The band's "+N" lists every tab playing or paused, with Pause All, and a speaker that mutes the one playing.

  • Right-click Veb in the Dock for its windows by their pages, New Window and New Private Tab.

  • ⌘J can open a chat about the page, or carry the line's words into one (Settings › AI › Agents).

  • Kept tabs get short names: the site's name left out, and a long title said in a few words on this Mac.

  • Recently Added lists bookmarks newest first.

  • New Mail stands on glass at the top of mail's column.

  • The mail pin wears an envelope with its count at the corner, and its card lists the threads that need you.

Improved

  • Connecting Claude Code or Codex shows every step on its icon, and Get to Know works out of sight, its tabs in one folder.

  • The page lays itself out as ⌘S moves the column.

  • Every line of a tab's menu has its mark.

  • A pin's card stays up while the pointer runs over its lines.

  • One-time codes are set in Settings › Autofill.

  • The chat column comes in and goes away smoothly, the window laid out once.

  • Tooltips, a page's own too, sit on the same dark glass as toasts.

  • Both right-click menus wear the same marks as ⌘K.

  • The private box is tinted evenly, in a deeper violet.

  • ⌃Tab goes through today's tabs you last looked at, leaving pins and kept tabs out.

  • The window's look is set on Appearance, from a dot; the Look page is gone.

  • Developer Mode is offered only for a page you went to, in the row.

  • A chat's answer not opened yet says "new", in the chats' list and on the Routines place.

  • A pin's corner says how many wait, and a meeting's minutes, on one plate.

  • Mail keeps to Gmail's quota: it paces each account, waits out a slow down and goes on with a first sync cut short.

  • Before Google's sign-in page, Veb says it will warn about Veb and what to press.

  • A sent form's new answers are kept without asking, and the morning look sorts them.

  • Mail, the ⌘J answer, chats and form marks wear your Mac's accent color.

  • The Update button stands where the space capsule was in the column.

  • ⌘K's list goes away on a click anywhere else.

Changed

  • The field's History row is gone: Ask answers from your history instead.

  • The bookmarks bar is a plain on or off switch.

  • Mail leaves the extensions button out.

Fixed

  • ⇧⌘M mutes a tab for real, as its speaker does.

  • ⇧⌘C in the field copies the chosen row's link.

  • A private tab stays out of what ⌘J and chats give agents.

  • The window comes back from the Dock after an agent has worked in a page.

  • What an agent asks stays in step between its chat and the page.

  • An agent's script gives back an async script's value, and an older Veb still running says which to open instead of "unknown".

  • ⇥ puts the search above the agent's row again.

  • The agents' room goes back off screen when a display comes or goes.
