Beyond Better 0.12.0

IMPORTANT: Major New Features

🎉 Introducing BB Bridge

Work with BB from anywhere — cloud or local — while keeping full access to the
files and tools on your own workstation.

BB Bridge is a lightweight agent you install on your computer that connects it
securely to a BB Hub (cloud or self-hosted). Once paired, you can create a
data source backed by your workstation from any project, without needing to run
the full BB API locally.

What’s new:

• New BB Bridges settings tab for pairing, naming, and managing your devices
• Install the BB Bridge app, pair it with your Hub, and it’s ready to use
• Add a BB Bridge data source to any project and select the paired agent —
  same file access, search, and command execution you get from a local filesystem
  datasource, just reachable from anywhere
• One bridge can serve multiple data sources/projects at once

Note: access to a bridge is scoped to what you explicitly allow (root
folder, allowed commands) — the bridge owner is always in control of what’s
exposed.

🎉 Introducing a new trust & authorization system

Replaces the old localMode setting with a proper trust model that scales from
fully offline use to shared team workspaces — and lays the groundwork for
stronger security as BB grows into more multi-agent and multi-user scenarios.

What’s changing:

• localMode is retired in favor of an explicit trust system that adapts to
  how BB is deployed — offline, self-hosted, or cloud
• Establishes verified trust between BB Bridge and its Hub, so a paired device
  only ever does what it’s been explicitly authorized to do
• Foundational work for cryptographic identity — device pairing now sets up
  the trust relationship that future features (fine-grained permissions, audit
  logging, per-request authorization) will build on

Why it matters: this is the plumbing that makes BB Bridge safe to use across
teams — every request a bridge handles will be traceable to real, verifiable
authorization, not just an open connection.
