NCC Sidecar v1.2.2 is live
This release focuses on backup integrity, recovery, and more reliable discovery for self-hosted services.
Encrypted backups by default
Node backups (Kind 30001) now use NIP-44 encryption. Managed service lists and configuration data are no longer published in plain text to relays.
Improved admin recovery
A new two-stage bootstrap flow allows full recovery after reinstall. Logging in is enough. Sidecar locates your encrypted bootstrap keys linked to your identity and restores state automatically.
Updated resolution engine
Now running ncc-06-js v0.6.0, improving discovery resolution, protocol filtering, and overall reliability.
UI refinements
Standardised theming for cleaner dark mode transitions, relay management restored, and a new “Copy NPUB” shortcut added to the dashboard.
The goal remains simple: make Nostr services easier to discover without compromising privacy.
