ModelManagement.tsx reads migrationResult.moved (added in #433) but
apiClient.migrateModels() was typed as returning only { source, destination }.
The backend actually returns { moved: int, errors: list[str], source, destination }
(backend/routes/models.py:140, 168). Widen the TS return type so the check
typechecks under the new CI gate from #418.

When user attempts to change model storage location with no models
downloaded, the migration API returns moved=0 early. Previously the UI
would still call setCustomModelsDir() and restart the server, causing
unexpected behavior (hang/connection lost).
This change checks migrationResult.moved === 0 and shows a helpful
toast message instead of proceeding with the storage change.
Fixes: #426

Catches format drift that accumulated across 13 authored files in
app/src and docs/. Auto-generated artifacts (tauri/src-tauri/gen,
docs/openapi.json, docs/cli.json, app/src/lib/api) were left alone
since the build regenerates them on each run — baking their formatted
state into git just causes churn next build.
No behavioral changes. Trailing commas, line wrapping, and indentation
only.

The in-app changelog viewer rendered each entry's version number at the
same size as body text (text-sm font-medium), so visually there was no
clear anchor for where one release's notes ended and the next began.
Bump the version heading to text-xl font-semibold tracking-tight and
widen the bottom margin so each release reads as a proper section
header.

Before 0.4 every engine was a cloning model, so the instruct UI in the
floating generate box applied the same way everywhere. Commit 3187344
hid the instruct toggle because the mix of new engines landing in 0.4
made it unclear which ones honored the kwarg. With Qwen CustomVoice
now shipping as the only engine actually tuned for instruct-style
control, bring the button back — conditionally, and only for that
engine.
Changes:
• FloatingGenerateBox: SlidersHorizontal toggle button appears left
of Generate when the box is expanded AND engine is
qwen_custom_voice. Clicking it reveals an additive instruct
textarea below the main text field (not a modal swap like the old
version). State persists across engine switches so the toggle
remembers its last position.
• GenerationForm: narrow the instruct FormField's conditional from
`qwen || qwen_custom_voice` to just `qwen_custom_voice`.
• useGenerationForm: narrow supportsInstruct for the same reason.
Base Qwen3-TTS accepts the kwarg but the model itself doesn't honor
it — only CustomVoice was trained for instruction-based style
control.

- Add cleanup for requestAnimationFrame and setTimeout in scroll effect
to prevent stale DOM writes on unmount or rapid selection changes
- Fix disabled+selected card click: bounce the selection to re-trigger
the engine auto-switch instead of deselecting

- Show all voice profiles with unsupported ones grayed out (opacity) instead of hidden
- Clicking a grayed-out profile selects it and auto-switches the engine to a compatible one
- Sort supported profiles first, with info tip about compatibility at the bottom
- Scroll to selected profile after engine/sort changes with safe margin
- Fix engine desync on tab navigation by initializing form engine from store

When the model wasn't loaded, the app was closed mid-run, or a
generation otherwise errored out, the resulting "Failed" rows
accumulate in history and there was no way to remove them in bulk —
individual delete was the only option.
Adds a header row above the history list (only rendered when at
least one failed generation is present) with a "Clear failed" button
that opens a confirmation dialog, then calls a new
DELETE /history/failed endpoint which sweeps all status='failed'
rows (plus their version files / audio files on disk).

Two changes to address the race condition causing "Failed to split clip":
Backend (stories.py): Added with_for_update() to the item query in
split_story_item so concurrent requests for the same clip are
serialized via a row lock instead of racing.
Frontend (StoryTrackEditor.tsx): Guard handleSplit with
splitItem.isPending to prevent rapid double-clicks from firing
multiple mutations before the first completes.
Fixes#366

- Rust: Replace fragile body.contains("status") with proper JSON
deserialization validating status=="healthy", model_loaded (bool),
and gpu_available (bool) to prevent misidentifying non-Voicebox services
- Frontend: Validate health response has Voicebox-specific fields before
marking server as ready during fallback polling
- Frontend: Discriminate port-in-use errors (poll for external server) from
real startup failures (missing sidecar, signing issues) — surface errors
immediately with a startupError state and Retry button in the UI
- Frontend: Set explicit startup-error state when 2-minute polling timeout
expires so the loading screen shows actionable feedback instead of hanging
- Architecture: Extract QueryClient to standalone side-effect-free module
(lib/queryClient.ts) to decouple serverStore from React bootstrap entrypoint
Add Kokoro-82M as a new TTS engine — 82M params, CPU realtime, 8 languages,
Apache 2.0. Unlike cloning engines, Kokoro uses pre-built voice styles, which
required a new profile type system to support non-cloning engines cleanly.
Kokoro engine:
- New kokoro_backend.py implementing TTSBackend protocol
- 50 built-in voices across en/es/fr/hi/it/pt/ja/zh
- KPipeline API with language-aware G2P routing via misaki
- PyInstaller bundling for misaki, language_tags, espeakng_loader, en_core_web_sm
Voice profile type system:
- New voice_type column: 'cloned' | 'preset' | 'designed' (future)
- Preset profiles store engine + voice ID instead of audio samples
- default_engine field on profiles — auto-selects engine on profile pick
- Create Voice dialog: toggle between 'Clone from audio' and 'Built-in voice'
- Edit dialog shows preset voice info instead of sample list for preset profiles
- Engine selector locks to preset engine when preset profile is selected
- Profile grid filters by engine — shows Kokoro voices when Kokoro selected
- Custom empty state when no preset profiles exist for selected engine
Bug fixes:
- Fix relative audio paths in DB causing 404s in production builds
- config.set_data_dir() now resolves to absolute paths
- Startup migration converts existing relative paths to absolute
Also updates PROJECT_STATUS.md and tts-engines.mdx developer guide.
Two fixes for issue #312:
1. GUI stuck on loading screen when backend is already running externally
(e.g. via python/uvicorn/Docker):
- Rust: add HTTP health check fallback when the process on the port
doesn't have 'voicebox' in its name. If /health responds with a
valid Voicebox response, reuse the server instead of erroring.
- Frontend: when startServer() fails, fall back to polling the
health endpoint every 2s instead of permanently blocking.
2. No data refresh when switching server URLs in settings:
- serverStore.setServerUrl() now invalidates all React Query caches
when the URL actually changes, so profiles/history/models/stories
are re-fetched from the new server.
- Export queryClient from main.tsx for store-level cache invalidation.
Fixes#312
Upgrade CUDA toolkit from 12.6 (cu126) to 12.8 (cu128) for proper
RTX 50-series (Blackwell) GPU support. Users with RTX 5070/5080/5090
were reporting CUDA detection failures with cu126.
Also fix the GPU Acceleration settings panel where the 'Switch to CPU
Backend' button was unreachable — it was inside a conditional block
that required !isCurrentlyCuda, making it impossible to switch back
to CPU once running on CUDA.
Closes#315
Integrates HumeAI's TADA (Text-Acoustic Dual Alignment) speech-language
model as a new TTS engine. TADA uses a novel 1:1 token-audio alignment
that produces coherent speech over long sequences (700s+).
Two model variants:
- tada-1b: English-only, ~4GB, built on Llama 3.2 1B
- tada-3b-ml: 10 languages, ~8GB, built on Llama 3.2 3B
Backend uses the Encoder for voice prompt encoding with caching, and
TadaForCausalLM with flow-matching diffusion for generation. Supports
bf16 inference on CUDA, forces CPU on macOS (MPS compatibility).
Installed with --no-deps due to torch>=2.7 pin conflict; descript-audio-codec
and torchaudio added as explicit sub-dependencies.
Use refetchQueries instead of invalidateQueries for more reliable history
refresh. Add history refetch to SSE onerror handler so dropped connections
don't leave the list stale. Reset page to 0 in HistoryTable when a pending
generation completes.
Closes#231
Switch WaveSurfer from MediaElement to WebAudio backend to prevent
WKWebView deadlocks that were freezing the entire Tauri app during
audio playback.
Reuse a single WaveSurfer instance across track changes instead of
destroying and recreating on every URL change, which was exhausting
the browser's AudioContext pool.
Other improvements:
- spacebar play/pause with capture phase to prevent history item activation
- drag-to-seek on waveform with silent scrub to avoid WebAudio popping
- slider always mounted to prevent layout shift during track transitions
- play button fills icon, accent bg when playing, loop button accent bg when active
- fix AudioBars animation getting stuck by keying on mode
- remove focus ring on history items
- sync slider position on pause and during seek
- remove title text from player bar
- thicker cursor (3px)
- Rename Server tab to Settings with horizontal sub-tab navigation (General, Generation, GPU, Logs, Changelog)
- All sub-tabs are proper routes under /settings/* with /server redirect for backwards compat
- General: connection settings, link cards (docs + discord), API reference card, app updates
- Generation: auto-chunking, crossfade, normalize, autoplay as SettingRow components
- GPU: info card with platform-aware icons (Apple logo for MPS), CUDA management, explainer text
- Logs: real-time server log viewer piped from Tauri sidecar via event system (Tauri-only)
- Changelog: parsed from CHANGELOG.md at build time via Vite virtual module plugin
- New reusable SettingRow/SettingSection components for consistent settings layout
- New Toggle (switch) UI component replacing checkboxes in settings
- Toast viewport now offsets when audio player is open
- Sidebar stays active on settings sub-routes (fuzzy matching)
- Use DB COUNT query instead of list length for take-N label to avoid
TOCTOU race between list_versions and create_version
- Add focus:bg-muted to SelectTrigger for keyboard focus visibility
Critical:
- Remove dead backend.utils.validation PyInstaller hidden import
- Fix story_items table rebuild to preserve track/trim/version columns
- Guard cache migration against same source/destination path
- Fix regeneration audio overwrite (use random uuid suffix per take)
Major:
- Engine selector: validate language on Qwen switch, clear stale modelSize
- Sync language validation regex between profile create and generate (22 langs)
- Guard CUDA download against duplicate concurrent requests
- Only set model_size for engines that support multiple sizes
- Fix 404 swallowed by generic except in history export
- Validate audio_path before FileResponse in export-audio
- Transcription: stream uploads in 1MB chunks, use robust cache check,
call complete_download() on Whisper download success
- Set clean version as default when effects chain validation fails
- Return explicit error when Windows port occupied by non-voicebox process
Backend:
- Generation service reports 'loading_model' status only when model
is not yet in memory, then 'generating' once inference starts
- Migrate hf_offline_patch.py from print() to logging module
- Update ADDING_TTS_ENGINES.md for post-refactor file paths
Frontend:
- HistoryTable shows 'Loading model...' vs 'Generating...' based on step
- FloatingGenerateBox: replace instruct toggle + inline effects editor
with an effects preset dropdown (third dropdown after language and engine)
- Instruct UI removed for now (form field preserved for future models)
- Remove focus ring from Select component globally
