Follow-up to #402. The sentinel is only removed inside the grace-period
"sentinel found" branch. When the HTTP /watchdog/disable request wins
the race (normal case on macOS/Linux, occasional on Windows), the
_watchdog_disabled=True check returns first and the sentinel is left on
disk indefinitely.
If a later session spawns a fresh server and the user exits without
"keep running", the new watchdog would find that stale sentinel during
its grace period and keep the server alive against user intent.
Wipe any pre-existing sentinel when the watchdog starts so only signals
written during this session's lifetime can influence grace-period
decisions.

The HTTP /watchdog/disable request races with process exit on Windows,
causing the watchdog to kill the server before the request arrives.
Added a .keep-running sentinel file as a reliable fallback:
- Tauri writes the file to data_dir before sending the HTTP request
- The watchdog checks for it during the grace period after detecting
parent death
- The file is removed after being read to avoid stale state
This approach works regardless of HTTP timing because file writes
complete synchronously before the Tauri process exits.
Fixes#372

- collect-all piper_phonemize to bundle espeak-ng-data for LuxTTS phonemization
- Set ESPEAK_DATA_PATH in frozen builds so the C library finds bundled data
- collect-all perth to bundle pretrained watermark model for Chatterbox
- Add multiprocessing.freeze_support() to fix resource_tracker subprocess crash
- Force tqdm disable=False in TrackedTqdm so byte progress works in prod
(huggingface_hub disables tqdm based on logger level, which prevents
self.n from updating — our progress tracking needs the counter even
though we don't render to terminal)
- Harden devnull redirect to test writability, not just None check
- Add full traceback logging to all backend error handlers
- Add chatterbox/luxtts/zipvoice hidden imports and metadata to spec
- Use YAML block scalar for inline run with colons (build-cuda.yml)
- Explicitly set VOICEBOX_BACKEND_VARIANT=cpu instead of setdefault (server.py)
- Use Path.replace() for atomic move on all platforms (cuda_download.py)
- Log actual exception in checksum fetch warning (cuda_download.py)
Add the ability to download a CUDA-enabled backend binary (~2.4 GB) and
swap it in via a backend-only restart, solving the #1 user pain point
(19 open 'GPU not detected' issues caused by GitHub's 2 GB asset limit).
Backend:
- cuda_download.py: download from R2 (primary) or GitHub split-parts
(fallback), SHA-256 verification, atomic writes, progress via SSE
- 4 new endpoints: GET/POST/DELETE /backend/cuda-*, GET cuda-progress
- server.py: --version flag, auto-detect variant from binary name
- build_binary.py: --cuda flag for CUDA PyInstaller builds
- split_binary.py: split large binaries into <2GB GitHub Release assets
- CI workflow for building CUDA binary
Tauri:
- restart_server command (stop -> wait -> start)
- start_server prefers CUDA binary from {data_dir}/backends/ if present
- Version mismatch check: runs --version before launching CUDA binary
Frontend:
- GpuAcceleration component: download, progress, restart, switch, delete
- API client + types for CUDA status and management
- Platform lifecycle: restartServer() on Tauri/Web
- Aggressive 1s health polling during restart for fast reconnection
- Implemented detailed logging for server startup in server.py, including Python version, executable path, and parsed arguments.
- Added error handling for module imports and server initialization to improve robustness.
- Introduced an Entitlements.plist file for macOS to manage security settings.
- Updated tauri.conf.json to reference the new Entitlements.plist.
- Enhanced error reporting in main.rs for better debugging during server process management.
