Changelog

What's new in Eclipse.

Eclipse updates itself. Settings › General › Check Now if you can't wait.

1.1

Eclipse is now free. No license, no account, no trial. Every tool, every theme, every update.

New

  • Approve Claude Code from the notch. Live session status, Allow or Deny on a pill that drops out of the notch, and an Agents tab with history. Opt-in and local-only: requests travel over a socket on your Mac, and Eclipse never approves anything on its own. Try it for one session with claude --settings before installing anything.
  • Now Playing from any app (turn it on in Settings), not only Music and Spotify.
  • A redesigned card: a tab strip with up to seven pinned tools, heights that fit each tool, new motion and a hover peek.
  • Updates itself once a day (you can turn this off), plus a welcome tour, a redesigned Settings window, an About window, Report a Problem and Uninstall.
  • Choose how the notch opens: hover, click, or only your shortcut. Record any shortcut you like.

Better

  • Built for macOS 27. Hides over full-screen apps, and what peeks out beside the notch is sized to the free menu bar space, keeping clear of menus and the » overflow. Optionally allow Accessibility for exact sizing next to long menus.
  • Focused defaults. Six core tools are on for new installs; everything else is one switch away in Settings › Tools. Upgrading keeps the tools you had.
  • Shelf: select several files, drag them out together, Quick Look and share. Clipboard: keyboard-first, and it never sets off macOS's paste prompt on its own.
  • Calendar day headers and RSVP state, a Timers dial, rain chance and sun times in Weather, compact Now Playing.
  • Far less work while idle: timers, stats, screen time and the visualizer wake up much less often.
  • Runs natively on Apple silicon and Intel, macOS 14 or later.

1.0

The first release: Home and launcher, Now Playing, Shelf, Clipboard, Notes, Calendar, Timers, Stats, Screen Time, Weather, Sounds, Emoji, Units, Claude usage, Revenue and the Message ticker, with live activities around the notch and four themes.
