The build is portable: daiton runs from its own folder, there is nothing to install and no shortcut to create.

Windows 10 or newer, with the WebView2 component that ships with the system. Updates are installed from the page or from inside the program.

Chat and Word documents run on the phone itself, on your key. Photos and screenshots are read by a model that can see images. PDF files are not opened on the phone - the app says so directly instead of showing an empty screen.

Installing on your computer

  1. Press Download and wait for the file to arrive.
  2. Run the downloaded file: daiton opens straight away, there is nothing to install.

Windows may say Unknown publisher. Press More info and then Run anyway - this happens with programs that do not carry a paid code-signing certificate.

Installing on your phone

  1. Press Download for Android - the file appears in your downloads.
  2. Open the downloaded file. Android will ask for permission to install apps from this source - allow it.
  3. Confirm the installation when the system asks.
  4. On the first launch, paste your key to the model. Without a key the app says so in words instead of waiting silently.

Android does not install apps from files without your permission - this is the system protecting you, not an error.

To run it on a computer

  • Windows 10 or newer. The program does not start on Windows 8.1.
  • The WebView2 component - already part of Windows 10 and 11.
  • A key to a model: your own, or a local model on the same computer.

To run it on a phone

  • Android 5.0 or newer.
  • An arm64 processor - as phones from recent years have.
  • Your own key to a model: there is no local model on the phone.

What the phone does not have

  • PDF document parsing: the file is not opened and not parsed, the app says so directly instead of showing an empty screen. Text on a photo is still read - see "What it does".
  • Long work in the background: the system closes background tasks, so the app warns about a long job in advance.
  • Personal conversations with the assistant live on their own device - they do not sync with the computer yet.
  • Voice dictation - in development.
  • External folders: the app workspace is kept inside the app itself, phone folders do not connect to it.
  • Attaching a photo or a file from anywhere: a picture or a file is chosen through the Android system dialog, and the app gets access only to what you chose.
  • Updates from inside the app: a new version is installed by running the file over the old one - the program does not replace itself.

What is new in 0.3.24

Modules are now part of the workspace. A module opens its own program window, the conversation with the assistant stands beside it, and the assistant's channel moves into that window - so one program edits a document, not two copies of the same file. The module tab names the state of its window, shows a snapshot of what is open in it and lists recent files; the same tab opens and closes the window and shows the document inside it. Installing and removing modules, choosing a format handler and connecting the Craft family of apps are available from the interface: ten programs were verified on live documents.

Team chat works without a server. Peers are found on the local network, the connection is direct, and an invitation is a single object - a string, a file, an expiry and a version - so joining takes two clicks. A room shows what the assistant reads; your own messages sit on the right; rooms and messages can be deleted; delivery status stops lying after five seconds.

The shell gained a bottom bar: sessions, rooms and open module windows live in it as pills, lists scroll, and the active pill is marked the same way as an entry in the left column. The extra "+" button is gone from the left column - the action remains in one place, in the bottom bar. The reaction picker opens as a vertical panel and no longer runs off the edge of the feed. The corner of a message bubble follows the block boundary, both for a single message and for a stack.

OpenCode Go is supported, with a live model list and an Anthropic path; every request on the OpenAI path now carries content. Hooks connect to harness events, a blocking Stop returns the turn to work, skills are installed as a folder and loaded on demand, and module tools are found by phrase. Fixed: the turn after a bash timeout, the assistant's question without technical toasts, repeated launch, two "close" buttons, the update loop, and a registry write over the book on disk.
