Features
- 🛡️ Running-app protection for casks — BrewBar now detects when a cask's app is actually open and skips it. Auto-upgrade skips running apps by default (Settings → Running apps); manual bulk upgrades can opt in too. The confirmation dialog now names the apps that are actually running instead of a blanket warning, and stays silent when none are
Fixes
- 🎯 The “Upgrade only…” submenu now stays visible whenever anything is outdated, even with a single kind (formulae or casks) — the empty kind is greyed out instead of the whole submenu disappearing
- 🔤 Cask version labels no longer show raw build-id hashes (e.g. Claude showed
1.20186.9,69f150a4c9316d5c8cd7b9f130ed583d15c0383e— now just1.20186.9)
