On August 27, 2026, Dockhand switched from version 1.0.44 to the new 1.0.45 version. Dockhand fixes the following issues and adds new options:
New – KeePassXC as a secret provider – pull secrets from a .kdbx via keepassxc-cli, bulk or inline refs
New – Compose generated from a container now captures network config and resource limits
New – Compose validate flags a service with no healthcheck and a defined-but-unused named volume
New – Optional Webhook column on the stacks list with a git stack’s webhook id and copy-URL button
New – Sort by Disk I/O and Net I/O – the header cycles read/write and down/up
New – Option to disable the session timeout
Fix: Security hardening across the API
Fix: Pausing or resuming a backup schedule no longer clears the retention policy
Fix: Emergency script to relocate stack paths after moving DATA_DIR
Fix: Git stacks can now set a custom icon
