syncOnStartup() (pull+import, fired at launch) and autoSync() (export+push,
debounced off chat activity) ran as fully independent, uncoordinated Tasks
with no mutual exclusion. A user launching the app and chatting right away
could hit autoSync's export mid-pull, leaving a freshly-written untracked
file that the pull then refuses to merge over — the same failure class as
the earlier folders.json bug, now much more likely to surface widely since
folders.json/notes.json are brand new for every existing sync repo.
Adds a shared isSyncing guard across all three entry points (syncOnStartup
skips if busy, autoSync waits for a clear slot, syncNow throws
.syncInProgress) and moves Sync Now's pull/import/export/push orchestration
out of SettingsView into GitSyncService.syncNow(), where the guard can
actually protect it.
Notes files now export to notes/ + notes.json alongside conversations.json,
matching folders.json's manifest pattern: matched by conversation ID, never
overwrites notes a machine already has locally, same empty-state orphan-
cleanup safety guard as the existing conversation/folder sync code. Also
adds Cmd+D to the "Discard" button on the crash-recovery restore prompt.
Fixes two Swift 6 actor-isolation build warnings surfaced along the way:
ConversationNotesService and the String filename-sanitizing extension are
pure, state-free helpers called from nonisolated contexts (DatabaseService,
GitSyncService) but defaulted to @MainActor — marked nonisolated.
Gives each conversation an opt-in, persistent memory file the model reads
automatically every turn and writes to on its own initiative via a fenced
```update-notes``` block in its reply — no per-write approval, matching the
Confab-as-CLAUDE.md-for-itself concept Rune wanted. /notes on|off|show,
files live in ~/Library/Application Support/oAI/notes/, embedded ID header
for future Git Sync compatibility. Adds DB migration v12.
New "Read Release Notes" entries in the Help menu (current installed
version) and the "Check for Updates" alert (the new, not-yet-installed
version) render a release's markdown notes in a Confab modal.
- UpdateCheckService.fetchReleaseNotes(forTag:) fetches a release's
title + body from Gitea's public releases-by-tag API, caching the
result by version tag in the settings table (a published release's
notes don't change, so no need to refetch on every view).
- ReleaseNotesView reuses the existing MarkdownContentView renderer;
shows a friendly "not available yet" state for versions with no
published Gitea release (e.g. a dev build ahead of the last release).
- ReleaseNotesRequest carries which version to show atomically via
.sheet(item:), per this project's established sheet-timing pattern.
- Removed the redundant "Release Page" button from the update alert
now that notes show in-app; added an explicit .keyboardShortcut
(.cancelAction) to its cancel button so Escape actually closes it —
role: .cancel alone didn't do it, since NSAlert only auto-binds
Escape to a button literally titled "Cancel".
Folders and conversation→folder assignments now sync across machines:
- Folder gains updatedAt (v11 migration) to resolve renames/reparents
last-write-wins across machines.
- New folders.json manifest at the sync repo root: folder tree +
conversationId→folderId assignments, imported before conversation
files so new conversations land in the right folder immediately.
- Local folders missing from the manifest are pruned (reparent-safe),
guarded the same way conversation-orphan cleanup already is against
an empty/stale manifest wiping everything.
Three real bugs found and fixed during live multi-machine testing:
- Sidebar never refreshed after Git Sync imported conversations/folders
directly into the database — only reloaded on launch or when the
advanced conversation list closed, with no equivalent hook for the
Settings sheet.
- "Sync Now" exported before pulling, so it could write folders.json
as an untracked file that then collided with the remote's tracked
copy on the next pull ("untracked working tree files would be
overwritten by merge"). Reordered to pull → import → export → push.
- Folder assignment only applied to brand-new conversations during
import, so any conversation already synced to a machine before this
feature existed never got filed — which in practice is every
conversation on a second machine, not an edge case. Now backfills
a folder assignment for existing conversations that aren't filed
anywhere locally yet, without clobbering an already-set folderId.
Also renamed the "Initialize Repository" button to "Clone Repository"
(it's always been a git clone, not new-repo creation) across the UI,
localization catalog, and Help Book.
Folders can now contain other folders, arbitrarily deep — e.g. "Work"
containing "Project A"/"Project B". v10 migration adds a
self-referencing parentId column; tree ordering, depth, and cycle
detection are pure Swift (Folder.orderedTree/isDescendant/
visibleFolderIds), not SQL, so listFolders() stays a simple flat
query.
- Create nested folders via "New Subfolder…" (context menu, both
list views) or by dragging a folder onto another to reparent it.
Dragging onto an existing descendant is rejected (cycle guard).
- Deleting a folder reparents its children and any conversations
filed directly in it up one level to the deleted folder's own
parent — conversations are never deleted. This also fixes a real
bug: the previous deleteFolder never persisted unfiling to the
database, only patched in-memory state, so a conversation whose
folder was deleted kept a dangling folderId and silently vanished
from view after the next relaunch.
- All "Move to Folder" pickers (sidebar, advanced list, per-row
context menus, the Save dialog's folder popup) show an indented
flat list reflecting the tree.
- New DraggedItem enum disambiguates a dragged folder from dragged
conversation(s) in the shared string-based drag payload, and
unifies both list views on the same bundled-multi-selection format
— closes a gap where dragging a multi-selection in the advanced
list (⌘L) only moved the one row grabbed, unlike the sidebar.
Confirmed working live, including relaunch-survival of the
delete/reparent fix.
"oAI" reads as easily confused with OpenAI, both visually and in
casual conversation. Renamed to "Confab" throughout: Xcode
target/scheme/bundle ID (com.oai.Confab), Info.plist and Help Book
identity, all user-facing UI text, internal Log subsystem and color
identifiers, localization catalogs (6 languages, including a proper
reworded/retranslated Intel-deprecation notice), Help Book HTML
content, and docs (README/DEVELOPMENT/PRIVACY/SECURITY).
Deliberately cosmetic-only: the on-disk data folder
(~/Library/Application Support/oAI/), database/backup filenames,
Keychain service identifiers, and EncryptionService's key-derivation
inputs are all left untouched so existing conversations, settings,
and stored API keys survive the update with zero migration and no
re-entering credentials. Verified live: a real signed build
successfully decrypted a stored API key and loaded an existing
conversation database after the bundle ID change.
Also includes a small already-completed, previously uncommitted
model-release-date feature (ModelInfo/OpenRouterModels/
OpenRouterProvider/ModelInfoView) that happened to share several
files with this rename.
Gitignored on this branch and updated on disk but not part of this
commit: CLAUDE.md, RELEASE_NOTES.md, and the build*.sh scripts.
collapse state, make merge provider picker visibly clickable
Deleted conversations coming back: exportAllConversations() only ever
wrote files for conversations that currently exist — it never removed
the exported markdown file for a conversation that had been deleted
locally. That file just sits in the sync repo forever, so every
future pull+import (including on every app startup) silently
resurrects it, since importAllConversations() only skips an import
when a matching local ID already exists. Fixed by having export also
delete orphaned files (conversation ID no longer present locally), and
added GitSyncService.syncAfterDeletion() — a debounced export+push
triggered right after any delete/bulk-delete/merge-cleanup, so the
removal reaches the remote promptly instead of waiting on an
unrelated future auto-save. Existing duplicates need one more manual
delete to clear, but they'll stay gone after that.
Folder collapse state now persists (SettingsService.collapsedFolderIds,
JSON-encoded like favoriteModelIds) and is restored on app launch, in
both the sidebar and the advanced conversation list.
Merge model picker: the provider switcher was legitimate (it does load
each provider's own catalog independently) but looked like plain
text — no chevron, no button styling — so it wasn't obviously
clickable. Restyled to match HeaderView's provider menu affordance
(icon + label + chevron on a colored pill).
UsageStats/ModelUsageStat/ConversationUsageStat need explicit
nonisolated inits under this project's SWIFT_DEFAULT_ACTOR_ISOLATION =
MainActor setting, same as Message/Conversation. deleteFolder also
discarded FolderRecord.deleteOne's Bool result implicitly via the
write closure's return value.
Conversations can now be filed into flat (non-nested) folders, shown
as collapsible sections in both the sidebar and the advanced
conversation list. New folders migration (v9) adds a folders table
and conversations.folderId with ON DELETE SET NULL, so deleting a
folder unfiles its conversations rather than losing them. Move/rename/
delete via context menu; conversation lists with no folders fall back
to the existing flat view unchanged.
Extends the existing Stats sheet (⌘⇧S) with a Session/All-Time segmented
picker. All-Time aggregates tokens, cost, and message counts across every
saved conversation, broken down by model and by conversation, using the
modelId already stored per message — no schema change needed.
Apple Intelligence / Foundation Models is now genuinely available on
this machine (macOS 27 beta 4) — it was reverted back in June
(f63226b) when it wasn't. Ports the reverted AppleFoundationProvider
forward onto 2.4.3, adapted for everything that's changed since:
PolyForm license headers, current AIProvider protocol shape, current
Settings.Provider/ProviderRegistry/CreditsView/SettingsView structure.
Fixes a real bug found via live testing: LanguageModelSession.
GenerationError was deprecated in macOS 27.0 in favor of a new
LanguageModelError type. On a macOS 27+ runtime, generation failures
now throw LanguageModelError, not GenerationError, so the original
error-mapping catch never matched and Apple's raw error text leaked
to the user instead of oAI's friendly message. Now dispatches to
whichever type the runtime actually throws, gated with
@available(macOS 27.0, *), keeping the old GenerationError path as
a fallback for macOS 26.x (the app's actual deployment target).
Confirmed end-to-end in the live app: provider selectable, Settings
shows a live "Available" badge, chat header shows correct branding,
and — a real, expected Phase 1 limitation — oAI's default system
prompt (active Agent Skills + MCP tool guidance, ~16K tokens on this
machine) exceeds the on-device model's 4K context window on the
very first message. The friendly error message now correctly reports
this instead of Apple's raw string. Tool calling remains out of scope
until Phase 3.

Switches the project from AGPL to a source-available license that
restricts commercial use — selling oAI or any part of it, standalone
or bundled into another product/service, now requires a separate
commercial license from the copyright holder. Noncommercial use,
study, modification, and sharing remain fully permitted.
Updates: LICENSE (canonical PolyForm Noncommercial 1.0.0 text +
commercial licensing contact note), SPDX headers and file-header
boilerplate across all Swift source files, the in-app About dialog's
license link (+ its localization catalog entry), README.md and
DEVELOPMENT.md license sections.

Fetches /api/v1/images/models in parallel with /models and merges results
into the model picker. Image-only models (e.g. Sourceful, Seedream, Flux
via this endpoint) were previously invisible since they don't appear in the
standard /models endpoint.
Models from the images API get usesImagesAPI=true and route through a new
generateImageAPIResponse() path in ChatViewModel that POSTs to /api/v1/images
with {model, prompt} instead of the chat completions endpoint. The response's
b64_json data is decoded and displayed via the existing GeneratedImagesView.
Cost is taken directly from the usage.cost field in the images API response
(USD per image) via a new rawCostUSD field on ChatResponse.Usage, bypassing
the token-based calculateCost() path used for chat models.

Personal Data Tools: native Calendar, Reminders, Contacts (hidden pending
Apple TCC fix in beta), and Location & Maps access via EventKit, Contacts
framework, and MapKit. Write actions (create event/reminder, complete
reminder) gate through an approval sheet. Four hardened-runtime entitlements
added to oAI.entitlements; Info.plist usage strings added for all services.
Personal Data section shows a β badge while Contacts is hidden.
2nd Brain always-trust: inline toggle on the Agent Skills row for the skill
named "2nd Brain" skips the bash approval dialog when the command contains
.brain_helper.py, gated by three runtime checks in MCPService.
Research agents: spawn_research_agents tool runs up to 5 concurrent read-only
sub-agents (read_file, list_directory, search_files, web_search — no write,
no bash, no nesting). Bounded by maxConcurrentAgents setting (default 3) and
a hard ceiling of 8 tasks. Added items field to Tool.Function.Parameters.Property
for JSON Schema array support; wired into AnthropicProvider.convertParametersToDict.

- Message, Conversation, EmailLog: add nonisolated to inits — plain value
types have no actor isolation, but the macOS 27 SDK was inferring it
- EncryptionService: replace lazy var encryptionKey (which mutates self and
gets inferred as @MainActor) with an eagerly-initialized let in init()
- FileLogger: add nonisolated to shared, write, and minimumLevel so they
are callable from nonisolated AppLogger methods without warnings
- LogLevel.<: add nonisolated to the Comparable conformance method
