Skales just got more social. Not social as in sending tweets — social as in the experience of using it feels more alive, more connected, more responsive. Here's what's new.
Spotlight Bar
Hit the keyboard shortcut and Skales pops up anywhere on screen — ready to take a command, search your sessions, or launch a skill. No switching windows. No clicking. Just think and type.
Discover Feed
A curated stream of prompts, tips, and community highlights. New to Skales? Discover what it can do. Power user? Find shortcuts you didn't know existed. Updated regularly.
Mini-Chat
Collapse the main window into a slim floating panel. Keep a conversation going while you work. Drag it anywhere on screen. Minimize when you're done.
Sound Notifications
Know when Skales finishes a task without watching the screen. Subtle audio cues for task completion, incoming messages, and reminders. Configurable — or off entirely if you prefer silence.
Notification Center
Everything Skales told you, in one scrollable history. Meeting reminders, email alerts, task completions, morning briefings — all logged, searchable, and dismissable.
Calendar Month View
The calendar just got better. Switch between day, week, and the new month view. See your full schedule at a glance without leaving Skales.
Buddy Intelligence
Your Desktop Buddy doesn't just sit there anymore. It notices things — an upcoming meeting, a long-running task, an email you might care about — and surfaces them without being asked.
Privacy Controls
More granular control over what Skales stores locally. Session history retention, log verbosity, and a one-click data wipe. All data stays on your machine. Always has. Always will.
15+ AI Providers
We crossed 13. Expanded provider support now includes additional custom endpoints and more OpenRouter models out of the box. More choice, same local-first philosophy.
What's Next
This update is about making Skales feel more alive and responsive. The next chapter is about depth — smarter agent reasoning, richer integrations, and tools built for how people actually work.
