CHANGELOG

What's new in Valken

The app updates itself, so you're on the latest version. This is what each one brought.

v0.0.3 LATEST

Demo clusters, opt-in usage data and a more stable Windows build

Try Valken without a cluster, and tell us how it's going if you want to. Several fixes for Windows and older Linux distributions.

  • NEW Demo clusters: open Valken with nothing but a laptop and explore a sample cluster in every lens.
  • NEW Cluster picker on Ctrl+K, with recent contexts first.
  • NEW Opt-in usage data. Off by default; Settings → Privacy shows exactly what is sent, and names never are.
  • NEW Opt-in error and crash reports, with only the kind of error and where in Valken's own code it happened.
  • IMPROVED Events: a histogram in the drawer, ⚡ pulses on cards as things happen, and changes Valken observes itself (rollouts, scaling, ConfigMap and Secret edits).
  • IMPROVED The local database is now encrypted with a key made per install.
  • IMPROVED New logo and app icon.
  • FIXED GPU rendering on Windows.
  • FIXED Linux builds run on older glibc versions.
  • FIXED Resize grips on floating windows, and a crash on exit when stdout was closed.
v0.0.2

List view, Arrange mode and the Pro license

A keyboard-first table of any resource, districts you can shape yourself, and the license check that tells Basic from Pro.

  • NEW List view (Ctrl+L): every resource kind, CRDs included, with :kind commands, regex and label filters, and cells that flash as they change.
  • NEW Arrange mode (E): drag districts, lasso, group with Ctrl+G, rule-based membership and undo.
  • NEW Several clusters open at once with the Fleet view (Ctrl+0) and drift between them. Pro.
  • NEW Right-click menus everywhere, with lens-specific sections.
  • NEW Searchable Settings (Ctrl+,) with undo.
  • NEW The license check: sign in for Pro, or use Basic without an account.
v0.0.1

First public beta

The map, the three lenses and the agent, for macOS, Windows and Linux.

  • NEW Topology lens: namespaces as cards grouped into districts, drill into a namespace, trace a service to its pods.
  • NEW Traffic lens: rps, p95 and 5xx per route from ingress-nginx or Traefik access logs, with a per-pod split.
  • NEW Security lens with Valken Sentinel: image scans, explained risk scores and exposure paths. Pro.
  • NEW The agent on your own model (Claude, OpenAI-compatible, Ollama, LM Studio) and a read-only MCP server.
  • NEW Logs, describe and YAML with drift, in floating windows.
  • NEW Sign in with Google, GitHub or Microsoft, or continue without an account.
