* feat(ci): re-enable Linux release builds (CPU, deb+rpm)
Linux shipped briefly in March 2026 (b580189..103e98b) then was removed
with the message "github runners suck." The post-mortem: standard
ubuntu-22.04 hit disk-pressure during pip+PyInstaller, and a namespace
custom-runner attempt proved flaky. Nothing in the app itself was the
problem — the NVIDIA-package exclusions in build_binary.py (~3 GB
shaved from CPU builds), the CPU-only torch install order, the
PulseAudio/PipeWire audio capture code, and the Tauri deb/rpm bundle
targets all still work.
This restores ubuntu-22.04 to the release matrix as a CPU-only Linux
build with a disk-space cleanup step (jlumbroso/free-disk-space) to
address the root cause of the March failures. Ships .deb + .rpm only
— AppImage was explicitly dropped in e18757b due to glibc portability
issues, keeping that decision.
CUDA-for-Linux is intentionally deferred to a follow-up PR: the
GpuAcceleration.tsx frontend hard-codes CUDA download as Tauri-only
without a Linux branch, and AMD users already get ROCm acceleration
for free on a stock CPU-torch install (backend/app.py:148-160). The
NVIDIA-on-Linux case is the only remaining gap and is non-blocking
for a v1 Linux ship.

* chore(release): bump version 0.4.1 → 0.4.2
tauri-action uses tauri.conf.json's version to name the release, so
pushing v0.4.2 as a tag alone was insufficient — the workflow was still
trying to publish to v0.4.1 (immutable) and failing. Bumps all workspace
package.json files, Cargo.toml, Cargo.lock, and tauri.conf.json.

* ci(release): add Linux bundle-step watchdog + verbose cargo logging
The first v0.4.2 attempt hung inside tauri-action at the bundling stage
on ubuntu-22.04 for ~28 min with no output. Same failure mode that drove
the March 2026 removal (commit 103e98b). Without visibility we're
guessing — probable causes include linuxdeploy/AppImage download stalls
(despite --bundles deb,rpm), cargo link on a cold cache, or disk
pressure during the final link step.
- timeout-minutes: 30 on tauri-action for Ubuntu (45 min elsewhere) —
fail fast with logs instead of waiting out the 6hr job timeout.
- --verbose added to the Linux build args so cargo streams progress.
- CARGO_TERM_VERBOSE + RUST_BACKTRACE=1 exported on tauri-action.
- New 'Disk / environment snapshot' step dumps df/free/tool versions
right before the tauri step so we can correlate with any later
OOM/ENOSPC failure.

* ci(release): disable Tauri updater artifacts on Linux (stops linuxdeploy hang)
Round-2 diagnosis from the v0.4.2 attempt: cargo finished in 3m 55s,
.deb and .rpm were bundled within 22s, then the step hung silently for
25 min until our 30-min watchdog killed it — no further log lines.
tauri.conf.json has `createUpdaterArtifacts: "v1Compatible"`. On Linux
the v1-compatible updater path wants a .AppImage.tar.gz, which means
downloading linuxdeploy-x86_64.AppImage from GitHub at build time.
That download is the silent blocker — same signature as the March 2026
"github runners suck" removal (commit 103e98b).
Fix: pass `--config {"bundle":{"createUpdaterArtifacts":false}}` on the
Linux build only. Mac/Windows continue to produce signed updater
artifacts as before. Linux users update via apt/dnf; Tauri in-app
auto-update for Linux can come later (and would require shipping
AppImage alongside deb/rpm).

* ci(release): pin free-disk-space action + stop removing LLVM
Review feedback on the Linux release workflow:
1. `jlumbroso/free-disk-space@main` was an unpinned ref in a job that
runs with `contents: write` and handles signing secrets. Pin to the
v1.3.1 commit SHA so a force-push or repo compromise can't inject
arbitrary code into our release flow.
2. `large-packages: true` runs `apt-get remove '^llvm-.*'`, wiping LLVM
just before the next step installs `llvm-dev`. That wastes CI time
and risks cascade-removal of reverse deps that won't be pulled back
in by `llvm-dev` alone. The remaining toggles (android, dotnet,
haskell, swap-storage) already clear ~20 GB, which is enough
headroom for the Python + torch + PyInstaller build.

Generations now return immediately with a 'generating' status and appear
in history right away. TTS runs in a serial background queue to avoid
GPU contention. Users can kick off multiple generations without blocking.
- Async POST /generate creates DB record immediately, queues TTS work
- Serial generation queue prevents concurrent GPU access (Metal/CUDA/CPU)
- SSE endpoint GET /generate/{id}/status for real-time completion tracking
- Retry endpoint POST /generate/{id}/retry for failed generations
- Store engine and model_size on generation records for retry support
- History cards show animated loader (react-loaders) for generating/playing
- Failed generations show retry button instead of actions menu
- Model downloads happen inline in the queue instead of rejecting with 202
- Stale 'generating' records marked as failed on server startup
- Autoplay on generate setting (default: on)
- Show engine name on generation cards
- Remove sidebar generation spinner
- Checkbox alignment fix in settings
- Added support for MLX backend on Apple Silicon, enabling optimized performance for TTS and STT tasks.
- Implemented platform detection to dynamically select between MLX and PyTorch based on the runtime environment.
- Updated build process to include MLX-specific dependencies and configurations for macOS.
- Refactored backend code to improve model loading and inference logic, accommodating backend-specific requirements.
- Enhanced documentation to clarify backend selection and performance benefits for different platforms.
- Streamlined installation instructions and troubleshooting guidance for MLX-related issues.
- Created a new .npmrc file to enforce bun usage.
- Bumped version numbers for multiple packages to 0.1.9 in bun.lock.
- Added react-sound-visualizer dependency to enhance audio visualization features.
- Introduced convert:assets script in package.json for asset optimization.
- Updated CONTRIBUTING.md with instructions for converting assets to web formats.
- Added documentation files for API endpoints and developer guidelines in the docs directory.
Previously, running `bun run dev` would fail because Tauri requires
the sidecar binary to exist at compile time, even in development mode.
This forced developers to build the full PyInstaller binary before
they could start development.
This change introduces a streamlined dev workflow:
1. Add `scripts/setup-dev-sidecar.js` - Creates minimal placeholder
binaries that satisfy Tauri's compile-time check. Works cross-platform
(Windows PE stub, Unix shell script).
2. Update Rust code to gracefully handle dev mode - When the sidecar
fails to start, it checks if a manually-started server is already
running on the expected port and connects to it instead.
3. Update npm scripts - `bun run dev` now auto-runs the setup script,
and `dev:server` uses the correct port (17493).
4. Update CONTRIBUTING.md with clearer dev workflow documentation.
New development workflow:
Terminal 1: bun run dev:server
Terminal 2: bun run dev
The bundled binary is only required for production builds.
- Changed the development server port in package.json from 17493 to 8000 for dev.
- Improved GPU availability checks in main.py to include support for MPS on Apple Silicon.
- Removed the Assets.car file from version control as it is no longer needed.

- Configured Tailwind CSS and PostCSS for styling, and set up TypeScript for type safety.
- Added a README with setup instructions, project structure, and deployment guidelines.
- Integrated GitHub links for easy access to the repository and releases.
- Established a consistent UI with reusable components and responsive design.
