cu121 only ships kernels up to SM 9.0 (Ada Lovelace). RTX 50-series
(Blackwell, SM 12.0) and RTX 6000 Pro need cu126 which includes SM 12.0
support while remaining backward compatible with older GPUs.
Closes#289
Wrap SSE generators with BrokenPipeError/ConnectionResetError handling
so client disconnects during generation status polling, download progress,
or audio streaming don't produce unhandled Errno 32 errors.
Closes#248
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)
- Backfill CHANGELOG.md from all 17 GitHub releases (was stale at v0.1.0)
- Add draft-release-notes and release-bump agent skills
- Extract release notes from CHANGELOG.md in release CI instead of hardcoded placeholder
- Remove stale PATCH_NOTES.md, mlx-test/, move PROJECT_STATUS to docs/notes
- Reorganize API reference docs from unknown/ to named groups
- Update openapi.json
- Backfill CHANGELOG.md from all 17 GitHub releases (was stale at v0.1.0)

- 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

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.
On Windows, Voicebox shelled out to netstat.exe on startup to check for
existing server processes. On systems with corrupted DLLs, netstat fails
with 0xc0000142, causing an infinite loading loop.
Replace with:
- TcpStream::connect_timeout() for port-in-use checks (pure Rust)
- PowerShell Get-NetTCPConnection for port-to-PID lookup (built-in cmdlet)
- tasklist for process name verification (unchanged)
Closes#277
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

- Add full traceback logging to all backend error handlers
- Add chatterbox/luxtts/zipvoice hidden imports and metadata to spec
Replace next: { revalidate: 600 } with cache: 'no-store' on GitHub
API fetches so new releases show up within 5 minutes (in-memory cache
only, no Next.js/Vercel cache layer on top).

New Spacedrive-inspired landing page with dark warm color system, glassmorphic navbar, feature cards with animated illustrations, and an interactive ControlUI mockup that cycles through voice generations with real audio playback via WaveSurfer.
The ControlUI demo script is fully data-driven - profiles, generation text, audio samples, and effects are all configurable from a single DEMO_SCRIPT array.
Includes 6 real voice samples (Jarvis, Morgan Freeman, Sam Altman, Samuel L. Jackson, Linus Tech Tips, Fireship) converted to webm opus.
