v0.3.1
More reliable local-model downloads
Faster, more resilient local-model downloads and a smoother first-run experience for Apple Silicon Macs.
New
- Local models can download over multiple concurrent segments for better throughput on constrained networks.
- Download screens and model settings now show live transfer speed and estimated time remaining.
- After a model download begins, users can let it continue in the background and enter Luxi while it finishes.
Reliability
- A durable segmented progress journal resumes only unfinished ranges after an app restart.
- Stricter Range response, object-origin, file-size, and SHA-256 validation prevents corrupted artifacts when a CDN object or response changes.
- Pause, retry, disk-space failure, and post-download verification recovery are more robust.
- While the selected local model is not ready, Luxi shows its current progress and temporarily disables task input instead of accepting a request that cannot run.
Users already on Luxi 0.3.0 can upgrade with the in-app updater. Earlier versions must download and install this release manually from the website.
