ByteRover CLI 3.14.0 brings the human-in-the-loop review queue into the brv webui dashboard: pending curate operations now show up next to your other diffs in the Changes tab, with a per-project on/off toggle on the Configuration page. The release also fixes two long-standing pain points: brv vc checkout now works right after brv vc init and brv vc fetch instead of failing with a misleading "no commits yet" error, and the MCP server used by Claude Desktop, Cursor, and other MCP-aware clients no longer pegs the CPU or hangs on shutdown when the daemon disconnects.

What's Changed

✨ Added

• Review pending changes from brv webui. The human-in-the-loop review queue now lives inside the Changes tab, with a Configuration toggle to turn review on or off per project. Approve, reject, or inspect pending curate operations next to your other diffs. The brv review CLI commands still work, and dashboard links deep-link straight to the right project's Changes tab.

🐛 Fixed

• brv vc checkout works on a freshly initialized project. Right after brv vc init and brv vc fetch, checking out a remote-only branch used to fail with a misleading "no commits yet" error. The fetched ref now resolves correctly, so the init, fetch, checkout sequence works as expected. A typoed branch name also reports "branch not found" instead of "no commits yet."

• MCP server no longer pegs the CPU after the daemon disconnects. When the daemon dropped, the MCP server used by Claude Desktop, Cursor, and other MCP-aware clients could spin into a high-CPU loop and hang on shutdown. It now installs one-shot crash guards, exits cleanly within 2 seconds, and lets pending tool calls return a real error before the connection closes. By @bao-byterover in [#664]

🚀 Upgrade & Install

Fresh install (macOS / Linux):

:::sh
curl -fsSL https://byterover.dev/install.sh | sh

Existing users: re-run the installer above to upgrade in place, then run brv restart to reload the daemon so the new MCP shutdown guards and HITL webui handlers take effect.

✅ No Breaking Changes

All changes are backward compatible. Existing context trees, provider configs, and connected agents continue to work with no migration. The HITL review toggle defaults to whatever your project already had set (review stays on unless you previously disabled it with brv review --disable), and the brv review CLI commands are unchanged.
