v1.3.0 of fdb

2026-04-28T19:57:01.255489Z

1.3.0 was published on Apr 28, 2026.

Changelog excerpt:
### New commands

- `fdb syslog`— streams native system logs (iOS Console / Android logcat) for the running app
- `fdb native-tap`— performs a native in-process tap; also available as `fdb tap --at x,y`for absolute coordinate targeting

### Improvements

- `fdb describe`now surfaces off-screen children of `GridView`and `ListView`that were previously hidden
- App death is now detected and surfaces an `APP_DIED`error immediately instead of hanging
- `.fdb/`state directory is now auto-located by walking up the directory tree, so fdb commands work from any subdirectory of the project
- `fdb status`returns `RUNNING=true`when a launch was interrupted but the app is still alive via VM URI fallback
- `fdb.app_pid`is now stored separately from `fdb.pid`for accurate app liveness detection

### Fixes

- Session directory walk-up no longer escapes to a parent `.fdb/`that has no `vm_uri.txt`when the local PID is stale
- `fdb status`VM URI fallback works correctly when launch is interrupted
