What’s New in v0.2.0

Desktop App for macOS

Crawler now has a desktop app. It wraps the same crawling engine as the CLI into a visual interface with real-time feedback as pages are crawled.

The app includes 9 dashboard cards:

  • Live Feed - watch pages stream in as they’re crawled
  • SEO Issues - see all 18 SEO check categories at a glance
  • Page Status - status code distribution across your crawl
  • Redirects - redirect chains and loops, visualized
  • Settings - configure concurrency, depth, delay, and more
  • Downloads - export crawl data as JSON, sitemap, or llms.txt
  • Content - browse extracted markdown content (Pro)
  • Newsletter - stay updated on new releases
  • Account - manage your subscription and authentication

One Subscription, Both Apps

Your crawler.sh account works across CLI and desktop. Sign in once and your plan limits apply everywhere - no separate licenses.

Install

Download the macOS DMG from crawler.sh/download or use the CLI installer:

curl -fsSL https://install.crawler.sh | sh

Security Updates

This release also includes security hardening for the desktop app, API, and install pipeline.

A CMS shouldn't slow you down. Crawler aims to expand into your workflow — whether you're coding content models, collaborating on product copy, or launching updates at 2am.
