2.1.518 Jul 2026Release notes
Open source →Fixes
- Updated generated theme templates for current Flutter APIs — replaced
CardThemewithCardThemeDatain the light and darkAppThemetemplates so newly generated projects use the correct material theme type. - Refreshed AI agent config templates — updated Codex and Gemini settings templates to use the newer model object shape; Codex now defaults to
gpt-5.6and Gemini togemini-3.5-flash.

2.1.415 Jul 2026Release notes
Open source →Improvements
- Expanded
AppColors— replaced the minimal 5-constant class with a full design-system palette: brand (light + dark), accent (light + dark), backgrounds, surfaces, borders, text (primary/secondary for each mode), semantic (error, success, warning, info), and neutral utilities (divider, disabled, overlay).AppColors._()private constructor prevents instantiation. - Reworked
AppTheme—AppTheme._()private constructor;light()/dark()renamed tolightTheme/darkThemegetters; all hardcodedColor(...)values replaced withAppColors.*references; added full component theme coverage:cardTheme,elevatedButtonTheme,outlinedButtonTheme,inputDecorationTheme,bottomNavigationBarTheme,navigationBarTheme,drawerTheme,dividerTheme,chipTheme,snackBarTheme; importsapp_colors.dart. - New
PaginatedListView<T>widget — generated tolib/core/common_widgets/paginated_list_view.dart; pure stateless widget that handles scroll-threshold triggering, separated/normal list modes, loading indicator, empty state, and end-of-list widget. All state (items, isLoading, hasReachedMax) is owned by the caller's state management layer.

2.1.328 Jun 2026Release notes
Open source →Changes
- Removed arrow-key TUI menu — state management selection reverts to the simple numbered prompt (
1. BLoC / 2. GetX / 3. Riverpod). The ANSI raw-mode approach causedStdinExceptionon Windows terminals and added unnecessary complexity. The--stateflag continues to work as before for non-interactive use. interactive_menu.dartremoved.configure-aiagent selection also uses a numbered prompt.

Open source →Bug Fixes
- Fixed crash on Windows when launching the arrow-key state selection menu —
StdinException: Error setting terminal echo modewas thrown on certain Windows terminals (cmd.exe, some PowerShell hosts) that reportstdin.hasTerminal = truebut do not support raw mode. Raw-mode setup now happens before any rendering;StdinExceptionis caught inselect()and silently falls back to the numbered list (1. BLoC / 2. Riverpod / 3. GetX).

2.1.028 Jun 2026Release notes
Open source →Improvements
- Decoupled AI scaffolding from
arcle create— default project creation now generates only the Flutter Clean Architecture structure. AI agent config (.ai/,.claude/,.codex/,.gemini/,scripts/) is no longer generated automatically. - New command:
arcle configure-ai(alias:arcle agent-init) — interactive one-question wizard to scaffold AI agent context files for an existing project. Detects state management fromarcle.yaml; prompts if not found. Supports Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Google Gemini, or all three. - Arrow-key TUI menu for state management selection — replaced the text-based prompt (typing
bloc/getx/riverpod) with an ANSI arrow-key navigable menu. Falls back to a numbered list automatically in CI/CD and non-TTY environments. The--stateflag still bypasses the menu for scripted use. - New command:
arcle review(aliases:arcle audit,arcle -r) — pre-commit quality gate that runs:dart analyze— static analysisdart format --output=none --set-exit-if-changed— format check- Missing-tests scan — checks only files changed in the current git diff; warns on any
lib/file with notest/counterpart flutter test(opt-in via--test)flutter test --coveragewith percentage report (opt-in via--coverage)- AI-assisted diff review via configured agent binary (opt-in via
--ai)

2.0.025 May 2026Release notes
Open source →ARCLE Agentic Flutter Development Platform
New Commands
arcle agent add <claude|codex|gemini|custom>— scaffold agent-specific config files (.claude/,.codex/,.gemini/,.custom-agent/)arcle agent remove <agent>— remove an agent configuration directoryarcle agent switch <agent>— setactive_agentin.ai/settings.yamlarcle agent list— list all configured AI agents in the projectarcle agent validate— validate that all required.ai/files existarcle ai init [--state]— generate.ai/project context & rules directoryarcle ai sync— sync.ai/settings.yamlstate fromarcle.yamlarcle ai validate— check all required.ai/config filesarcle ai doctor— diagnose AI configuration healtharcle upgrade [--force]— upgrade an existing ARCLE project to v2.0.0 (SDK, analysis, dimensions,.ai/, scripts)
Project Scaffolding
- New projects now include
.ai/directory with 6 AI agent context files:settings.yaml,project-context.md,architecture-rules.md,coding-rules.md,security-rules.md,permissions.yaml - New projects now include Claude Code integration (
.claude/CLAUDE.md,.claude/settings.json) - New projects now include OpenAI Codex integration (
.codex/instructions.md,.codex/settings.json) - New projects now include Gemini integration (
.gemini/GEMINI.md,.gemini/settings.json) - New projects now include
scripts/setup.sh,scripts/setup.ps1,scripts/doctor.sh,scripts/doctor.ps1
Breaking Changes
- Replaced
DimensionsTemplates.dimensions(state)with universalDimensionsTemplates.dimensions()— new implementation usesdart:uiPlatformDispatcher directly (works for all state management, no GetX dependency) - Updated
analysis_options.yamltemplate: replacedprefer_relative_importswithalways_use_package_imports, addedavoid_unnecessary_containers,prefer_single_quotes,unnecessary_const,unnecessary_new - Minimum Dart SDK raised from
^3.5.4to>=3.7.0 <4.0.0
Improvements
- Generated project

1.0.420 Apr 2026Release notes
Open source →- Reworked localization management around dedicated top-level commands:
arcle add locale <code>adds a single locale to the project; on first use it creates the localization infrastructure, and on later calls it appends the locale to the existing setup.arcle delete locale <code>removes a single locale's JSON file, updatessupportedLocales/isSupportedinapp_strings.dart, removes the GetX locale section when applicable, and cleans theassets/langs/pubspec entry when the last locale is removed.
- Added localization command aliases:
arcle add loc <code>,arcle delete loc <code>,arcle del locale <code>, andarcle del loc --<code>. - Added
--<code>flag shorthand for locale commands such asarcle add loc --myandarcle del loc --my. add localenow supports any ISO 639-1 locale code, with built-in country-code mappings for 60+ languages; unknown locales receive English-value placeholder JSON so the app stays runnable while translations are filled in.- Updated localization injection so feature keys are added to every JSON file under
assets/langs/and every// arcle:keys_*marker ingetx_localization.dart. - Added
arcle verify --check-featuresto scan every module underlib/features/and report missing data, domain, or presentation layer files for the project's state management. - Added
arcle verify --check-assetsto verify that every asset path declared inpubspec.yamlexists on disk. - Added
arcle verify --check-l10nto verify that each feature has its{feature}_titletranslation key present inassets/langs/en.json(BLoC/Riverpod) orlib/core/localization/getx_localization.dart(GetX). - Added
arcle verify --fullto run--check-features,--check-assets, and--check-l10nin a single pass.
