This is the first of our patch update blogs. This is where we'll post small (but mighty) feature updates as well as documenting the bugs that we step on.
TL;DR:
- New Features: Opt-in Anonymous Tracking, New Cmd/Ctrl + K Palette, Agent Daemon Mode
- Bug Fixes: MySQL Session Kill, MongoDB Schema, API Key propagation, Jira Re-run
New Features
Opt-In Anonymous Tracking
Admins will be prompted with a consent form to anonymize tracking within hoop, so we can improve the product with some handy analytics without anyone (including us) knowing who you are.

PR #1011 - https://github.com/hoophq/hoop/pull/1011
Command Palette Interface
Search and navigate faster with the new command palette: just hit Cmd + K on macOS or Ctrl + K on Windows/Linux in the Hoop web app to open it.

Agent Daemon Mode
Users will now be able to ride dragons. We’ve also introduced a new agent command that lets you run the Hoop agent as a daemon for smoother, always-on operations.

Bug Fixes
We smashed some bugs recently, too. Here's what died:
- MySQL sessions can now be killed properly (community report)
- Terminal page connections list now scrolls like it should
- The API Key propagation is now fixed, so no more dropped calls
- MongoDB schema tree browsing works without hiccups
- “Re-run session” option removed in Jira integrations (the context wasn’t playing nice)
- MongoDB integration is sturdier and more compatible across edge cases
Experience Boosts
- Command Palette - Less clicking and easier searching
- Agent Daemon Mode - Smoother rides with fewer restarts
- Opt-in Tracking - Analytics are optionally anonymous
- Bug Fixes - Fewer hiccups
The theme for this release is faster, lighter, and friendlier. See you in a couple weeks with more.
