Actioneer for Linux 1.0.8
Actioneer 1.0.8 focuses on making live GitHub Actions monitoring more reliable while using the GitHub API more efficiently.
Highlights
- In-progress workflow runs now keep refreshing while they are still active, so expanded jobs and steps stay current before the run finishes.
- Expanded run details are more stable and easier to read, with clearer badges, preserved job context, and contiguous step numbering.
- Workflow status badges are now translated more consistently across the app's supported languages.
- Background refresh is lighter on the GitHub API, reducing duplicate requests and helping preserve rate-limit headroom.
Technical improvements
- Fixed several live-refresh lifecycle issues in the detail pane so switching repositories or rebuilding rows no longer disables the active refresh loop.
- Removed duplicate initial jobs fetches caused by rerender races around freshly expanded runs.
- Reduced unnecessary polling pressure by tightening selected-repo refresh ownership and job-refresh reuse.
Actineer for Linux got translations
Actioneer for Linux has translations available in numerous languages, including Russian, Spanish, French, Portuguese (Brazil), Hindi, Simplified Chinese, Arabic, Bengali, Urdu, German, and Dutch.
It also includes a built-in crash reporter, which you can copy and paste the report or open an issue on GitHub. Additionally, there are some tweaks and improvements made under the hood.
Recent updates for Actioneer for Linux
There were a bunch of updates of Actioneer for Linux recently, which I forgot to post here. Here's what's new in these updates:
1.02
- Faster and smoother UI with refreshed repo/workflow lists and improved scrolling behavior.
- New run filtering controls with better caching, so switching filters is instant and doesn’t reload data.
- Better workflow auto-refresh and run status updates, including fewer duplicate fetches.
- Notifications are more reliable across Snap/Flatpak, with improved icon handling and fallbacks.
- Improved sandboxed credential storage using the secret portal for Snap/Flatpak.
- Offline-friendly cache persistence for workflows, runs, and jobs.
- Packaging and CI updates across Snap, Flatpak, and AppImage for better compatibility.
- Dependency updates and stability fixes.
1.03
- Job logs now render ANSI colors, grouped workflow sections, and clearer command/output formatting.
- Aligned timestamps and command prefixes improve scanability, with stronger error highlighting.
- Packaging CI refreshed with multi-arch updates for AppImage/Snap/Flatpak builds.
- Dependency updates and demo log refreshes for improved accuracy.
1.04
- Handle expired job logs (HTTP 410) with clearer messaging instead of a broken view.
- Strip BOM markers in job logs so first-line timestamps render correctly.
1.05
- Manual workflow triggers now support workflow_dispatch inputs with dynamic parameter fields.
- Dependency updates for ryu, unicode-ident, and zmij.
Claw Screenshot - a console tool to make screenshots on Linux
Recently, I've been playing with Clawd / Moltbot / Openclaw bot. Of course, it ended up with asking it to write some code. Since I'm running it in a VM with Ubuntu Linux, I've been playing with developing some apps for it. And at some moment, I realised that I'm sending screenshots of an app, but each time I have to do it manually.
So I decided to automate that part. I tried some console apps for Linux that promised they can do screenshots, but none of them worked for me for some reason.
So I decided to write my own. I picked Rust, and Openclaw did some research for me about how it should be done. It ended up with a console app that uses the FreeDesktop Screenshot portal. It required creating a .desktop file so I could see that Gnome permission request and click Allow. That is required just once, so now I've automated it.
That's a pretty cool thing to be honest, which I already tried with an iOS app using UI tests - the AI agent just runs UI tests, gets screenshots from a report, analyzes them, and understands what is wrong with the app UI.
I pushed the app to GitHub and published a release with binaries, .deb, and .rpm packets for arm64 and amd64. And it got a nice automatic installation script. Since I made it using Openclaw, I called it Claw Screenshot.

JPG to HEIF converter
Today I've decided to experiment with HEIF that was introduced by Apple with macOS 10.13 and iOS 11. They said that it has the same quality with much lower file size.
It's supported in the latest versions of macOS and iOS and last models of iPhone can take pictures in that format.
I'm thinking about compressing my home archive of photos and videos. I was experimenting with HEVC (H.265) and results were great - I had reduced the size of my videos by encoding them to HEVC with an awesome util called HandBrake.
I found the only way to convert JPG to HEIF (which has HEIC extension). It's possible with the Preview app from macOS. But it would be interesting for me if I can do it by myself in Swift. So I did :)
My folder with 64 photos from my action camera was 203 mb in JPG format. And it's only 31.3 mb in HEIC.
macOS and iOS support it from the box. And what's interesting - it's easy to add pictures in this format to the Photos library and it will appear on all your devices that use iCloud. But if you want to export this picture from the Photos library - it will be converted to JPG on the fly, so it looks like you can't export the original HEIC file.
The converter is free and open source (but it's for macOS only): https://github.com/makoni/jpg-to-heif-converter
