Splitkick v1.5.15: sidebar tabs and agent templates

Starred, To-Do and Graphs become sidebar tabs, agents sort projects into folders and label their own sessions, and Splitkick no longer needs the GitHub CLI.

By · · 2 min read

Splitkick v1.5.15 came out on 13 November 2026. The sidebar gets tabs, agents can tidy up the sidebar themselves, and the first start is shorter: one AI backend is enough, the GitHub CLI is optional.

The Splitkick window with the new sidebar tabs above three projects. Codex asks which of two duplicate invoice rows to keep.

Home sits above the tabs; Projects is selected, the other tabs show as icons with counts.

New

  • Agent templates. Settings → Agents offers four starting points: Vision keeper, Project manager, Worker and Reviewer.
  • Agents sort the sidebar. New MCP tools create_folder, move_project, rename_folder and delete_folder put projects into folders.
  • Agents label their session. New MCP tool set_session_label; the label shows at once in the sidebar, the tab and Home.

Changed

  • Sidebar tabs. Projects, Recent, Starred, To-Do and Graphs are tabs with counts; Home sits above them.
  • The GitHub CLI is optional. Setup is done when one AI backend is ready; GitHub features say when gh is not set up.
  • Settings → Web Browser. Browser for agents and Claude in Chrome now share one pane; Claude in Chrome is off for new installs.
  • Setup goes straight to the local app. It no longer asks for a server, and “Install via SSH” is off for now; add a remote with its Web Access URL.
  • Find in chat is per session. Each session keeps its own search and match.

Fixed

  • First start is one flow from setup to Done to the feature tour, and nothing else opens on top of it.
  • The feature tour fits any window, also a phone, and has a Back button.
  • The GitHub login in setup no longer loops; it shows the error with Check Again and Log In Again.
  • AskUserQuestion works on Windows again.
  • Notifications show again in the desktop app, and a finished update offers Restart Now. On v1.5.9 to v1.5.14: after the download, restart with the Updates button in the sidebar footer, or install the DMG.
  • The Network tab shows only the sessions around the current one.
  • A right-click on the To-Do list on Home opens the full session menu.
  • “Edit connection” works when a remote is unreachable.
  • Find in chat stays on the match while new messages arrive.
