Moving from Capacitor to kcap
Kurrent Capacitor was renamed kcap in October 2026. The product is the same; a few commands, paths and URLs changed with the name
What changed
Section titled “What changed”| Before | Now |
|---|---|
| ”Capacitor” in the web app, the desktop app and the CLI’s messages | ”kcap” |
Docs at /docs/capacitor/… | /docs/kcap/…; old links redirect |
Artefacts: /artefacts/…, kcap artefact, the kcap-artefacts tools | Pages: /pages/…, kcap page, kcap-pages; the old forms still work but are deprecated |
The connect-capacitor skill for Muse Assistant | connect-kcap; saying “Connect Capacitor” still works |
| Setup’s “Capacitor” steering text in agents’ instruction files | Rewritten on kcap refresh or kcap setup |
What did not change: the npm package @kurrent/kcap, the kcap command, your workspace URL, your profiles and tokens, your sessions and their links, ~/.config/kcap
If an older install misbehaves
Section titled “If an older install misbehaves”- Old wording in your agent. The steering block in an instructions file still says Capacitor.
kcap refreshrewrites it; orkcap plugin install --codex(or the flag for that agent) - An agent calls
kcap mcp artefacts. It still works as an alias.kcap refreshupdates the registration topages - Bookmarked docs links 404. Links under
/docs/capacitor/and the pre-namespace/docs/redirect; a link to a page that was merged lands on its replacement. If one does not, tell us - A Slack preview shows the old name. Previews come from the server; a workspace on an older server shows the old name until it is updated
Frequently asked
Section titled “Frequently asked”Do I need to reinstall? No. kcap update is enough
Will kcap artefact go away? Yes. kcap artefact, the kcap-artefacts tools and /artefacts/… links are deprecated. They still work today so nothing breaks on the day of the rename, but move to kcap page, kcap-pages and /pages/… as soon as you can; see Pages
Does anything about my data change? No. Same server, same storage, same audiences
