Yardmaster Guide

What's New

What changed in each version of Yardmaster, newest first, with the guide for each.

New is something you can do now, Improved works better, Fixed was repaired.

    • New
      Signed-in readers of a Google sign-in Share can now copy its text to paste into an AI chat, or make a one-hour link their AI can read. Open the Reader menu on the page. If you own the Share, you can turn this off for it with the Allow AI reading switch in Access settings.
    • New
      Full Send lets one chat work without asking about anything, sensitive files included. Pick it from the arrow next to Allow, or from Chat permissions in the chat menu. Yardmaster warns you first, shows a red badge while it is on (click it to turn it off), and turns it off when the chat ends or the app restarts. "Allow everything in this chat" now says plainly that it still asks before passwords, keys and logins.Approve what your agents ask for
    • New
      Authors can gate step-by-step Share sections behind checkpoint questions whose answers and locked content are sealed with PBKDF2-SHA-256 and AES-GCM so the answer never appears in page source.
    • New
      When a launch timer on a Share hits zero, Countdown Moment fires confetti for everyone who has the page open at the same server-synchronized moment, with a calm static celebration when reduced motion is enabled.
    • New
      The new Pick a Date Share Kit builds time-zone-aware scheduling grids where participants view candidate windows in their own time zone, drag across slots to mark Free or Busy, watch the live group availability heat map update, and add the locked winning slot to Google Calendar or download its .ics invite.Every kind of Kit page
    • New
      The new Debate Share Kit builds two-sided argument pages with collapsible claims, rebuttals, and source links, a private 1 to 10 agreement slider before and after reading, and a live How Minds Moved summary that shows how the arguments shifted the group without revealing individual slider positions.Every kind of Kit page

For Anti-Gravity, Yardmaster writes them where it looks for rules, in ~/.gemini/config/rules and in the project. Turn off Give Codex and Anti-Gravity my Claude rules in Settings to keep your own rules to Claude.Run sessions on Codex

    • New
      Sign in once for every engine. Select a remote MCP server such as Mobbin in Agent Tools > MCP Servers and click Sign in for all engines. Yardmaster keeps the sign-in encrypted on this computer, and Codex, Antigravity and other agents that reach the server through Yardmaster all use it. An agent that needs a sign-in asks you with an Inbox card first.Install and update your tools
    • New
      Test every tool, on the MCP Servers view, connects to every server you turned on and shows whether Claude, Codex and Antigravity can use it: Ready, Needs sign-in, Failed or Not enabled, with the reason. It only lists tools and never runs one.Install and update your tools

      Git guardrails now reach past Claude sessions. Codex sessions that Yardmaster starts are covered, and an inbox notice appears if Codex ever stops running the guardrail (Codex billed through OpenRouter is not covered yet). Codex works in the project folder, so on a project sitting on main or master it can't edit files or commit until it makes its own worktree. Antigravity sessions are covered too, checked live in Antigravity 1.4.11, through a small plugin in Antigravity's own folder (the guide shows how to remove it). Sessions merged into main no longer leave empty merge commits behind.Build software step by step with the Dev Pipeline
