- 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)
- Backfill CHANGELOG.md from all 17 GitHub releases (was stale at v0.1.0)
- Add draft-release-notes and release-bump agent skills
- Remove stale PATCH_NOTES.md, mlx-test/, move PROJECT_STATUS to docs/notes
- Minor voicebox-server.spec cleanup
Replace verbose startup messages with a clean summary:
- App version, Python version, OS/arch
- Database path (fix None display), data directory
- Profile and generation counts
- Backend, GPU, model cache path
- Clean up stale loading_model status on startup
- Remove noisy progress manager log line
- 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
Replace the outdated backend README (473 lines of stale API docs and
pre-refactor file tree) with a concise architecture document covering
module structure, request flow, backend selection, API domain overview,
and development commands.
Delete REFACTOR_PLAN.md -- all phases are complete.
Update STYLE_GUIDE.md to remove refactor plan references and replace
the verbose target layout with the current actual structure.
Split the 2,578-line main.py (90 routes) into 12 domain-specific router
modules under routes/. main.py is now a 45-line entry point.
New structure:
- app.py: FastAPI instance, CORS, startup/shutdown, safe_content_disposition
- routes/: health, profiles, channels, generations, history, transcription,
stories, effects, audio, models, tasks, cuda
- services/cuda.py: moved from cuda_download.py
Also includes Phase 5 database/ package (from parallel agent):
- database/__init__.py re-exports all symbols for backward compat
- database/models.py, session.py, migrations.py, seed.py
All 90 routes verified registered and app imports cleanly.
- 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
- Story items can be pinned to a specific generation version via
toolbar dropdown (shows when clip is selected and has >1 version)
- version_id column on story_items with migration, validated against
the generation's versions before saving
- Split/duplicate preserve the source clip's pinned version
- Export and playback resolve version-specific audio paths
- Extracted _build_item_detail helper in stories.py (DRY cleanup)
- Story list restyled from rounded cards to flat rows with rounded
hover/active states, gradient header fade, and dynamic bottom
padding that accounts for track editor + generate box
