chore(release): version packages

[dohooo]

This PR was opened by the Changesets release GitHub action. When you're ready to do a release, you can merge this and the packages will be published to npm automatically. If you're not ready to do a release yet, that's fine, whenever you add more changesets to main, this PR will be updated.

Releases

helmor@0.43.0

Minor Changes

• #825 4d07a72 Thanks @JRBusiness! - Add opt-in support for attaching sessions to plain local folders that are not git repositories.

  • New "Non-git directories" setting (Settings → General). When enabled, Open project can attach a session to any local folder; these run as local-mode sessions with no branch/worktree actions.
  • Harden agent process environment resolution so bundled CLIs find their PATH reliably (Windows PATH is rebuilt from the registry), and resolve git pointer paths correctly for Windows absolute and UNC paths.

Patch Changes

• #894 e0beec2 Thanks @dohooo! - Scrolling up in a chat thread and stopping no longer makes the conversation jump or shake — row heights now settle into place while the scroll is still moving, so your reading position stays put.

• #895 d176c6d Thanks @dohooo! - Fix in-review workspaces sometimes opening to an empty "No session selected" panel instead of their conversation.

• #893 c56bb1b Thanks @natllian! - Refine non-git directory workspace support:

  • Non-git folders now work out of the box — removed the opt-in "Non-git directories" setting.
  • Non-git workspaces use the chat-style layout (no diff/inspector panel or branch pickers), and their repo settings page shows a "Non-git repository" notice instead of account and git options.

 # 02 - Workspace
 
-A workspace is the central unit of work in Helmor. It represents an isolated working copy — a branch, a file tree, and a set of sessions — dedicated to a single task.
+A workspace is the central unit of work in Helmor. It represents an isolated working copy — a file tree and a set of sessions — dedicated to a single task.
+
+## Workspace types
+
+Helmor supports two types of workspaces:
+
+- **Git-based workspaces** (default) — the workspace is attached to a Git repository. These workspaces provide branch isolation, diff baselines, branch pickers, and Git-specific features.
+- **Non-git workspaces** — the workspace is attached to a plain local folder without Git. These use a chat-style layout with no diff/inspector panels or branch pickers, and run as local-mode sessions with no branch or worktree actions.
 
 ## What a workspace provides
+
+For Git-based workspaces:
 
 - **Branch isolation** — each workspace gets its own Git branch so agent edits never contaminate other work.
 - **File tree** — browse, search, and edit files scoped to this workspace's state.
 - **Session history** — every agent conversation and its resulting changes are recorded.
 - **Diff baseline** — changes are compared against the workspace's target branch.
 
+For non-git workspaces:
+
+- **File tree** — browse, search, and edit files in the local folder.
+- **Session history** — every agent conversation and its resulting changes are recorded.
+
 ## Isolation modes

 | **Local** | Points directly at the repository root. Multiple conversations share the same files. Useful for quick edits without branching overhead. |
 | **Chat** | A scratch directory with no Git binding. Good for exploratory questions where you don't need file changes. |
 
+Non-git workspaces always operate in local mode — they point directly at the folder you opened.

 ## Lifecycle
 
-Workspaces move through four states:
+Git-based workspaces move through four states:
 
 1. **Initializing** — database record created; filesystem setup in progress.
 2. **SetupPending** — a project setup script was detected (e.g., dependency install). Run it or skip.
 3. **Ready** — the workspace is usable. Start sessions, browse files, review diffs.
 4. **Archived** — task complete. The worktree is cleaned up and the branch deleted (if Helmor created it).
 
+Non-git workspaces have a simplified lifecycle without branch or worktree cleanup.
+
 ## Branching behavior
+
+For Git-based workspaces:
 
 - **FromBranch** — Helmor forks a new branch from your selection. The workspace owns the branch; archiving deletes it.
 - **UseBranch** — the workspace attaches to an existing branch. The branch is preserved on archive.
+
+Non-git workspaces have no branching behavior.

+For **Git repositories**, Helmor uses the repository as the source for:
 
 - **Workspaces** — isolated copies branched from your default or target branch.
 - **File browsing** — view, search, and navigate the project tree.
 - **Diffs** — compare agent changes against the base branch.
 - **Git operations** — commit, push, and prepare PRs from inside the app.

+For **non-git folders**, Helmor provides file browsing and chat-based agent sessions without Git-specific features.
 
 Helmor does not replace Git. It wraps Git with an agent-friendly workflow layer.
