🔗 Console.dev newsletter Skir rss
Description: Declarative language for types & APIs.
What we like: Define the schema then generate idiomatic, type-safe code (Python, Go, Java, Rust, TS, etc). Dynamic serialization options e.g. binary or JSON. VS Code extension & LSP tooling. Supports backwards compatibility when changing schemas.
What we dislike: Compile-time errors if you add a field, but don’t regenerate the code - this is the opposite to protobuf which handles it by defaulting values. This may be better, depending on your philosophy.

🔗 Console.dev newsletter Atomic rss
Description: Knowledge graph.
What we like: Local, open source, markdown-based knowledge base. Auto-generates wiki articles from tags. Built-in semantic search with vector embeddings. Supports different types e.g. markdown notes, web clips, articles. Supports MCP. Can be an HTTP server without a desktop UI.
What we dislike: Everything is self hosted so you need to do some setup work. This is also a benefit.

What's New in v0.17.4
v0.17.4 ships three PRs: a sidebar consolidation that folds the Obsidian vault browser into the Files tab, three new Kanagawa themes, and a Pi regression fix from @dmmulroy.
Vault Browser Merged into Files Tab
The sidebar previously had separate "Files" and "Vault" tabs when an Obsidian vault was configured. The two tabs had identical tree UI but parallel state, and switching between them broke the mental model of "files are files."
The Vault tab is gone. Vault directories now appear as collapsible sections inside the Files tab, beneath project directories, marked with an Obsidian icon in the section header. Annotation count badges still appear per- directory. Disabling the vault in Settings removes the section without affecting project file browsing.
Two server-side gaps accompany this change. The annotate server (both Bun and Pi) was missing the
/api/obsidian/vaults,/api/reference/obsidian/files, and/api/reference/obsidian/docendpoints — vault files were unreachable when opening linked docs viaplannotator annotate ./. Those endpoints are now present on all three servers (plan, review, annotate).The sticky header lane was also incorrectly suppressed whenever a linked doc was active. That gate has been removed. The sticky bar now follows scroll behavior consistently regardless of mode.
Net change is -334 lines: one Files tab handles all directory types uniformly.
Kanagawa Themes
Three Kanagawa variants join the theme picker as dark-only themes, placed alphabetically after Gruvbox:
- Kanagawa Dragon — warmest variant, ash-black base (
#181616) with muted teal accent - Kanagawa Wave — the classic Kanagawa, cool blue-purple base (
#1f1f28) with purple accent - Kanagawa Bones — same base as Wave, earthier character, cyan-blue primary with brighter purple accent
Colors are mapped directly from the official Ghostty Kanagawa palette.
Additional Changes
- Pi: planning tool stripped on fresh sessions. PR #446 refactored the Pi
session_starthandler to useapplyPhaseConfig()but left the idle branch calling onlyrestoreSavedState(), which no-ops when there's no saved state. On fresh sessions that had never entered planning mode,plannotator_submit_planremained in the active tool set — a regression from #387. The idle branch now explicitly strips planning-only tools when there is no saved state to restore. (#525 by @dmmulroy)

🔗 Simon Willison Meta's new model is Muse Spark, and meta.ai chat has some interesting tools rss
Meta announced Muse Spark today, their first model release since Llama 4 almost exactly a year ago. It's hosted, not open weights, and the API is currently "a private API preview to select users", but you can try it out today on meta.ai (Facebook or Instagram login required).
Meta's self-reported benchmarks show it competitive with Opus 4.6, Gemini 3.1 Pro, and GPT 5.4 on selected benchmarks, though notably behind on Terminal-Bench 2.0. Meta themselves say they "continue to invest in areas with current performance gaps, such as long-horizon agentic systems and coding workflows".
The model is exposed as two different modes on meta.ai - "Instant" and "Thinking". Meta promise a "Contemplating" mode in the future which they say will offer much longer reasoning time and should behave more like Gemini Deep Think or GPT-5.4 Pro.
A couple of pelicans
I prefer to run my pelican test via API to avoid being influenced by any invisible system prompts, but since that's not an option I ran it against the chat UI directly.
Here's the pelican I got for "Instant":

And this one for "Thinking":

Both SVGs were rendered inline by the Meta AI interface. Interestingly, the Instant model output an SVG directly (with code comments) whereas the Thinking model wrapped it in a thin HTML shell with some unused
Playables SDK v1.0.0JavaScript libraries.Which got me curious...
Poking around with tools
Clearly Meta's chat harness has some tools wired up to it - at the very least it can render SVG and HTML as embedded frames, Claude Artifacts style.
But what else can it do?
I asked it:
what tools do you have access to?
And then:
I want the exact tool names, parameter names and tool descriptions, in the original format
It spat out detailed descriptions of 16 different tools. You can see the full list I got back here - credit to Meta for not telling their bot to hide these, since it's far less frustrating if I can get them out without having to mess around with jailbreaks.
Here are highlights derived from that response:
-
Browse and search.
browser.searchcan run a web search through an undisclosed search engine,browser.opencan load the full page from one of those search results andbrowser.findcan run pattern matches against the returned page content. -
Meta content search.
meta_1p.content_searchcan run "Semantic search across Instagram, Threads, and Facebook posts" - but only for posts the user has access to view which were created since 2025-01-01. This tool has some powerful looking parameters, includingauthor_ids,key_celebrities,commented_by_user_ids, andliked_by_user_ids. -
"Catalog search" -
meta_1p.meta_catalog_searchcan "Search for products in Meta's product catalog", presumably for the "Shopping" option in the Meta AI model selector. -
Image generation.
media.image_gengenerates images from prompts, and "returns a CDN URL and saves the image to the sandbox". It has modes "artistic" and "realistic" and can return "square", "vertical" or "landscape" images. -
container.python_execution - yes! It's Code Interpreter, my favourite feature of both ChatGPT and Claude.
Execute Python code in a remote sandbox environment. Python 3.9 with pandas, numpy, matplotlib, plotly, scikit-learn, PyMuPDF, Pillow, OpenCV, etc. Files persist at
/mnt/data/.Python 3.9 is EOL these days but the library collection looks useful.
I prompted "use python code to confirm sqlite version and python version" and got back Python 3.9.25 and SQLite 3.34.1 (from January 2021).
-
container.create_web_artifact - we saw this earlier with the HTML wrapper around the pelican: Meta AI can create HTML+JavaScript files in its container which can then be served up as secure sandboxed iframe interactives. "Set kind to
htmlfor websites/apps orsvgfor vector graphics." -
container.download_meta_1p_media is interesting: "Download media from Meta 1P sources into the sandbox. Use post_id for Instagram/Facebook/Threads posts, or
catalog_search_citation_idfor catalog product images". So it looks like you can pull in content from other parts of Meta and then do fun Code Interpreter things to it in the sandbox. -
container.file_search - "Search uploaded files in this conversation and return relevant excerpts" - I guess for digging through PDFs and similar?
-
Tools for editing files in the container -
container.view,container.insert(withnew_strandinsert_line),container.str_replace. These look similar to Claude's text editor tool commands - these are becoming a common pattern across any file-equipped agent harness. -
container.visual_grounding - see below, this one is fun.
-
subagents.spawn_agent - the sub-agent as a tool pattern. "Spawn an independent sub-agent for research, analysis, or delegation. It returns its final text response."
-
third_party.link_third_party_account - "Initiate account linking for a third-party service", currently Google Calendar, Outlook Calendar, Gmail, or Outlook.
Image analysis in the container
Let's talk about that
container.visual_groundingone. Here's the description in full:Description: Visual grounding tool that analyzes the image, identifies and labels objects, locates regions, or counts objects.
Parameters:
- object_names (array, required)
- image_path (string, default "")
- format_type ("bbox"|"point"|"count"|null, default "bbox")
- title (string|null)[string]
So it can take an image path, optional object names and return things in format
bbox,pointorcount.Sounds to me like Meta's Segment Anything. I decided to take it for a spin.
Prompt:
generate a photo of a raccoon sitting on a trash can wearing trash as a hat
Response:
Here you go — king of the alley, in full regalia:

Coffee cup crown, banana peel brim, newspaper feather. Peak raccoon fashion. Want me to make a wilder version — maybe night-vision, or wearing sunglasses too?
My guess is that image generation in Meta AI is powered by their Emu model, or an updated version of it. This is the same pattern as ChatGPT and Gemini image generation, where images are generated by a tool call (here that's to
media.image_gen).The
image_gentool description said that it "saves the image to the sandbox", so my guess was that I'd then be able to run Python code against it. I tried:use python OpenCV to analyze that image and find out neat things about it
Annoyingly it did not show me the code it ran, but it did create this image:

Pretty neat! We can both generate images and then use them with Python tools.
Next, the
visual_groundingtool. Knowing the names of the tools makes it easy to refer to them in prompts:Now try the container.visual_grounding tool
The response (full response here):
Done — visual_grounding pinpointed every piece of the outfit with pixel-level precision:

[...]
Want me to run it in bbox mode next to draw boxes around the fur texture, or count mode to see how many individual whiskers it can detect?
Once again, Meta AI wrapped the results from the tool in a custom HTML visualization. That's clearly
pointmode, but how about the others?I prompted:
yes draw bounding boxes, can it do masks too?
Response:
Yes — bounding boxes work great. Masks? Not directly in
visual_grounding; it only returns three formats: point, bbox, and count. No pixel-level segmentation masks.Here's the bbox output:
![Bounding box object detection visualization titled "Bounding Boxes (visual_grounding)" with subtitle "8 objects detected — coordinates are 0-1000 normalized" showing a raccoon photo with colored rectangular bounding boxes around detected objects: coffee cup in yellow [424,115,610,273] 186×158, banana peel in yellow [472,215,667,291] 195×76, newspaper in blue [305,223,548,315] 243×92, raccoon in green [270,240,892,845] 622×605, raccoon's face in purple [305,283,750,537] 445×254, right eye in magenta [442,379,489,413] 47×34, left eye in magenta [565,379,605,416] 40×37, and trash can lid in red [107,800,1000,998] 893×198. A legend at the bottom shows each object's name, coordinates, and pixel dimensions in colored cards. Watermark reads "Meta AI".](https://static.simonwillison.net/static/2026/meta-bbox.jpg)
What you’re seeing:
- raccoon: big box from (270,240) to (892,845) — covers 62% of the width, basically the whole animal
- coffee cup: (424,115)-(610,273) — sits highest, 158px tall in the 0-1000 space
- banana peel: (472,215)-(667,291) — overlaps the cup's base, confirming it's draped over the side
- newspaper: (305,223)-(548,315) — left ear coverage
- trash can lid: (107,800)-(1000,998) — spans almost the full image width at the bottom
- face: (305,283)-(750,537) — tight crop around the mask
- eyes: both ~40×37 pixel boxes, perfectly level at y=379
Notice how the boxes nest: face is inside raccoon, eyes inside face, hat pieces overlap each other but stay above the face box. The tool is doing real object localization, not just guessing centers.
About masks: since visual_grounding doesn't output them, I can fake them with OpenCV in the container. Two quick options:
- GrabCut — I give it the raccoon bbox, it iteratively segments fur from background and returns a binary mask
- SAM-style color threshold — use the bbox plus k-means to isolate the coffee cup or banana peel
Want me to generate an actual alpha mask for the raccoon (cut it out from the alley), or for the trash hat pieces separately? Takes about 10 seconds and I can give you a transparent PNG.
Here's the HTML for that bbox visualization.
Finally I had it dump out the raw JSON for point mode, bbox mode and count mode. You can see that all here. The count mode is particularly interesting - here's that in full:
[ { "object_name": "raccoon whisker", "points": [ {"x": 403, "y": 445}, {"x": 397, "y": 458}, {"x": 392, "y": 472}, {"x": 391, "y": 485}, {"x": 398, "y": 497}, {"x": 415, "y": 512}, {"x": 618, "y": 446}, {"x": 622, "y": 461}, {"x": 625, "y": 475}, {"x": 628, "y": 488}, {"x": 635, "y": 501}, {"x": 651, "y": 518} ], "count": 12 }, { "object_name": "raccoon paw claw", "points": [ {"x": 406, "y": 845}, {"x": 424, "y": 847}, {"x": 441, "y": 842}, {"x": 473, "y": 833}, {"x": 596, "y": 830}, {"x": 635, "y": 844}, {"x": 660, "y": 843}, {"x": 679, "y": 838} ], "count": 8 }, { "object_name": "trash item on head", "points": [ {"x": 514, "y": 191}, {"x": 568, "y": 263}, {"x": 392, "y": 274} ], "count": 3 }, { "object_name": "eye", "points": [ {"x": 462, "y": 395}, {"x": 582, "y": 398} ], "count": 2 }, { "object_name": "ear", "points": [ {"x": 359, "y": 313}, {"x": 680, "y": 294} ], "count": 2 } ]So Meta AI has the ability to count a raccoon's whiskers baked into the default set of tools.
Which means... it can count pelicans too!

Here's that overlay exported as HTML.
Maybe open weights in the future?
On Twitter Alexandr Wang said:
this is step one. bigger models are already in development with infrastructure scaling to match. private api preview open to select partners today, with plans to open-source future versions.
I really hope they do go back to open-sourcing their models. Llama 3.1/3.2/3.3 were excellent laptop-scale model families, and the introductory blog post for Muse Spark had this to say about efficiency:
[...] we can reach the same capabilities with over an order of magnitude less compute than our previous model, Llama 4 Maverick. This improvement also makes Muse Spark significantly more efficient than the leading base models available for comparison.
So are Meta back in the frontier model game? Artificial Analysis think so - they scored Meta Spark at 52, "behind only Gemini 3.1 Pro, GPT-5.4, and Claude Opus 4.6". Last year's Llama 4 Maverick and Scout scored 18 and 13 respectively.
I'm waiting for API access - while the tool collection on meta.ai is quite strong the real test of a model like this is still what we can build on top of it.

What's New in v0.17.3
v0.17.3 is a substantial release covering ten PRs — supply-chain hardening with SLSA build attestations, a major plan header overhaul with sticky toolstrip and badges, overlay scrollbars across the entire app, inline highlighting for external annotations, Conventional Comments in code review, and several smaller fixes from the community. Two contributors from outside the core team shipped changes this cycle.
Sticky Toolstrip and Badges
The
stickyActionsEnabledsetting previously only pinned the right-side action buttons. The annotation toolstrip (selection mode + editor mode toggles) and the left-side badges (repo, branch, plan diff) scrolled away with the document, forcing you back to the top to switch modes or jump into a diff.A new ghost sticky lane fades in once you scroll past the original toolstrip, pinning the toolstrip and badges on the same horizontal plane as the action buttons. The compact bar uses a row layout for badges and hides label text on inactive toolstrip modes to leave room. Top-of-document rendering is unchanged. The lane stays hidden in plan-diff mode, archive mode, linked-doc mode, and when sticky actions is off. Honors
prefers-reduced-motion.Conventional Comments in Code Review
The code review annotation toolbar now has an optional Conventional Comments label picker —
suggestion,issue,nitpick,question, and others, with an inline blocking/non- blocking toggle per label. Annotations export in conventional format (**label** (decoration): text) as plain markdown, compatible with GitHub PRs and any text-based review system.A dedicated Comments settings tab houses the master toggle (off by default), a label editor for adding/editing/deleting/reordering custom labels, per-label blocking decorator toggle, an educational "how it works" section linking to the spec, and live example output. Drafts persist label and decoration state across file switches.
Unified Plan Header Dropdown and Agent Instructions
Plan mode's header has been consolidated. The sprawled desktop toolbar (mode toggle, standalone Settings button, custom export sub-dropdown) and the separate mobile menu are now a single
PlanHeaderMenurendered at all breakpoints, modeled on the existing review header menu. The version number and release notes link moved into the dropdown footer.A new "Agent Instructions" item copies a clipboard payload teaching external agents (Claude Code, Codex, custom scripts) how to POST annotations into the live session via
/api/external-annotations. The instruction body lives inpackages/ui/utils/planAgentInstructions.tsso it can be edited independently of UI code.The PR also fixes a long-standing bug where the
Send Annotations/Approvecluster was hidden whenever a linked doc was active, blocking submission for users runningplannotator annotate ./once they opened a file.Header Polish: Coordinated Shrinking, Share/Copy Cleanup
Sticky header label shrinking is now driven by measured geometry instead of fixed pixel reserves. A
ResizeObserveron the wrapper plus another on the action button cluster computes exactly how much room is available; both sides of the header shrink in lockstep so they stay horizontally aligned as long as possible. Below ~340px of plan area the ghost bar stacks below the action buttons."Quick Share" and "Quick Copy" are now plain "Share" and "Copy". Share opens the existing export modal so it benefits from the short-link path for large payloads instead of dumping a 50KB hash URL straight to the clipboard.
The sidebar rail no longer pushes the background grid pattern 30px to the right — it floats over the document area, and the grid paints edge-to-edge under the sidebar flags.
Overlay Scrollbars
Wide, translucent, full-length overlay scrollbars across plan mode and code review, replacing the 6px WebKit rail that was hard to grab. Click the track to page-animate toward the click; drag the thumb smoothly; no layout shift; Firefox parity; respects
prefers-reduced-motion; disappears in print.Backed by
overlayscrollbars-reactwrapped in a newOverlayScrollAreacomponent. Native scroll semantics stay on the viewport element so existingscrollIntoViewandscrollTocalls still work. Wrapped containers include the main plan viewer, annotation panel, sidebar tabs, settings and export modals, file tree, review sidebar, AI chat tab, PR comments timeline, and PR summary/checks dock panels.Inline Highlighting for External Annotations
External annotations posted via
POST /api/external-annotationscan now optionally highlight the matchingoriginalTextspan inline in the rendered plan —COMMENTrenders yellow,DELETIONrenders strikethrough. Annotations withoutoriginalTextor of typeGLOBAL_COMMENTcontinue to render sidebar- only.No protocol or schema change. Tools choose inline vs global purely by what they supply. If
originalTextdoesn't match anywhere in the rendered DOM, the annotation degrades gracefully to sidebar-only with a console warning. PATCH and DELETE through the API correctly remove and reapply highlights as state changes.Supply-Chain Hardening
The release pipeline now generates SLSA build provenance attestations for every released binary. Each of the twelve cross-compiled binaries (six Plannotator targets, six paste-service targets) is signed via Sigstore and recorded in Rekor through
actions/attest-build-provenance. Top-level workflow permissions have been tightened tocontents: readwith per-job overrides.Installers now accept a
--version v0.X.Yflag (and positional form), so you can pin to a specific version instead of always pullinglatest. The default behavior is unchanged.Attestation verification is opt-in via three mechanisms with documented precedence: a
--verify-attestationCLI flag, aPLANNOTATOR_VERIFY_ATTESTATION=1environment variable, or{ "verifyAttestation": true }in~/.plannotator/config.json. Off by default to match how rustup, brew, bun, deno, and helm handle attestation — turning it on hard-fails the install ifghisn't available, so opt-in is never silently skipped. Anyone can still verify any release manually withgh attestation verify.The same PR fixes a Windows installer crash where
cmd.exe'senabledelayedexpansionwas eating the!characters in an embeddednode -escript during Gemini settings merge.#512, closing #506 and parts of #507
Additional Changes
- Numbered list rendering. Ordered lists like
1.,2.,10.were rendered as bullet points because the parser collapsed all list types into a single block kind. The parser now captures the numeric marker and tags the block as ordered; a newcomputeListIndiceshelper assigns CommonMark-correct display numbers including streak break/restart on mixed siblings and independent numbering for nested ordered sublists. The renderer usestabular-numsso9to10doesn't jitter (#520) - Underscore italics. The custom markdown renderer supported
*italic*but not_italic_. Now both work, while intraword underscores likesnake_casecontinue to render as plain text (#504 by @foxytanuki, closing #502) - Perforce added files on Windows. P4-added files were missing from the review UI on Windows because
p4 wherestdout uses\r\nline endings; splitting on\nleft a stray\rin every file path except the last, causingBun.file()to silently fail. The fix normalizes line endings on all P4 command output and replaces fragile index-based parsing withp4 -ztag wherefield-based parsing, which is also more robust for stream depots and overlay mappings (#494 by @l10veu602)

What's New in v0.17.2
v0.17.2 is a substantial release covering ten PRs — supply-chain hardening with SLSA build attestations, a major plan header overhaul with sticky toolstrip and badges, overlay scrollbars across the entire app, inline highlighting for external annotations, Conventional Comments in code review, and several smaller fixes from the community. Two contributors from outside the core team shipped changes this cycle.
Sticky Toolstrip and Badges
The
stickyActionsEnabledsetting previously only pinned the right-side action buttons. The annotation toolstrip (selection mode + editor mode toggles) and the left-side badges (repo, branch, plan diff) scrolled away with the document, forcing you back to the top to switch modes or jump into a diff.A new ghost sticky lane fades in once you scroll past the original toolstrip, pinning the toolstrip and badges on the same horizontal plane as the action buttons. The compact bar uses a row layout for badges and hides label text on inactive toolstrip modes to leave room. Top-of-document rendering is unchanged. The lane stays hidden in plan-diff mode, archive mode, linked-doc mode, and when sticky actions is off. Honors
prefers-reduced-motion.Conventional Comments in Code Review
The code review annotation toolbar now has an optional Conventional Comments label picker —
suggestion,issue,nitpick,question, and others, with an inline blocking/non- blocking toggle per label. Annotations export in conventional format (**label** (decoration): text) as plain markdown, compatible with GitHub PRs and any text-based review system.A dedicated Comments settings tab houses the master toggle (off by default), a label editor for adding/editing/deleting/reordering custom labels, per-label blocking decorator toggle, an educational "how it works" section linking to the spec, and live example output.

I've sold out
-
🔗 Armin Ronacher Mario and Earendil rss
Today I'm very happy to share that Mario Zechner is joining Earendil.
First things first: I think you should read Mario's post. This is his news more than it is ours, and he tells his side of it better than I could. What I want to do here is add a more personal note about why this matters so much to me, how the last months led us here, and why I am so excited to have him on board.
Last year changed the way many of us thought about software. It certainly changed the way I did. I spent much of 2025 building, probing, and questioning how to build software, and in many more ways what I want to do. If you are a regular reader of this blog you were along for the ride. I wrote a lot, experimented a lot, and tried to get a better sense for what these systems can actually do and what kinds of companies make sense to build around them. There was, and continues to be, a lot of excitement in the air, but also a lot of noise. It has become clear to me that it's not a question of whether AI systems can be useful but what kind of software and human-machine interactions we want to bring into the world with them.
That is one of the reasons I have been so drawn to Mario's work and approaches.
Pi is, in my opinion, one of the most thoughtful coding agents and agent infrastructure libraries in this space. Not because it is trying to be the loudest or the fastest, but because it is clearly built by someone who cares deeply about software quality, taste, extensibility, and design. In a moment where much of the industry is racing to ship ever more quickly, often at the cost of coherence and craft, Mario kept insisting on making something solid. That matters to me a great deal.
I have known Mario for a long time, and one of the things I admire most about him is that he does not confuse velocity with progress. He has a strong sense for what good tools should feel like. He cares about details. He cares about whether something is well made. And he cares about building in a way that can last. Mario has been running Pi in a rather unusual way. He exerts back- pressure on the issue tracker and the pull requests through OSS vacations and other means.
The last year has also made something else clearer to me: these systems are not only exciting, they are also capable of producing a great deal of damage. Sometimes that damage is obvious; sometimes it looks like low-grade degradation everywhere at once. More slop, more noise, more disingenuous emails in my inbox. There is a version of this future that makes people more distracted, more alienated, and less careful with one another.
That is not a future I want to help build.
At Earendil, Colin and I have been trying to think very carefully about what a different path might look like. That is a big part of what led us to Lefos.
Lefos is our attempt to build a machine entity that is more thoughtful and more deliberate by design. Not an agent whose main purpose is to make everything a little more efficient so that we can produce even more forgettable output, but one that can help people communicate with more care, more clarity, and joy.
Good software should not aim to optimize every minute of your life, but should create room for better and more joyful experiences, better relationships, and better ways of relating to one another. Especially in communication and software engineering, I think we should be aiming for more thought rather than more throughput. We should want tools that help people be more considerate, more present, and more human. If all we do is use these systems to accelerate the production of slop, we will have missed the opportunity entirely.
This is also why Mario joining Earendil feels so meaningful to me. Pi and Lefos come from different starting points. There was a year of distance collaboration, but they are animated by a similar instinct: that quality matters, that design matters, and that trust is earned through care rather than captured through hype.
I am very happy that Pi is coming along for the ride. Me and Colin care a lot about it, and we want to be good stewards of it. It has already played an important role in our own work over the last months, and I continue to believe it is one of the best foundations for building capable agents. We will have more to say soon about how we think about Pi's future and its relationship to Lefos, but the short version is simple: we want Pi to continue to exist as a high-quality, open, extensible piece of software, and we want to invest in making that future real. As for our thoughts of Pi's license, read more here and our company post here.

🔗 r/Leeds Guitar Pedal shops in Leeds? rss
Hi, I'm looking to shop around for some guitar pedals (like phasers etc) and I'd love to demo some. I'm aware PMT has now unfortunately closed, and I do miss the days of Big Deal and Dawsons. I love Hobgoblin and still frequent the store there, and wondering where else in Leeds I can go to browse?
York has some great shops to visit too but I'd like to look more locally.
Thank you!

🔗 Simon Willison Anthropic's Project Glasswing - restricting Claude Mythos to security researchers - sounds necessary to me rss
Anthropic didn't release their latest model, Claude Mythos (system card PDF), today. They have instead made it available to a very restricted set of preview partners under their newly announced Project Glasswing.
The model is a general purpose model, similar to Claude Opus 4.6, but Anthropic claim that its cyber-security research abilities are strong enough that they need to give the software industry as a whole time to prepare.
Mythos Preview has already found thousands of high-severity vulnerabilities, including some in every major operating system and web browser. Given the rate of AI progress, it will not be long before such capabilities proliferate, potentially beyond actors who are committed to deploying them safely.
[...]
Project Glasswing partners will receive access to Claude Mythos Preview to find and fix vulnerabilities or weaknesses in their foundational systems—systems that represent a very large portion of the world’s shared cyberattack surface. We anticipate this work will focus on tasks like local vulnerability detection, black box testing of binaries, securing endpoints, and penetration testing of systems.
There's a great deal more technical detail in Assessing Claude Mythos Preview’s cybersecurity capabilities on the Anthropic Red Team blog:
In one case, Mythos Preview wrote a web browser exploit that chained together four vulnerabilities, writing a complex JIT heap spray that escaped both renderer and OS sandboxes. It autonomously obtained local privilege escalation exploits on Linux and other operating systems by exploiting subtle race conditions and KASLR-bypasses. And it autonomously wrote a remote code execution exploit on FreeBSD's NFS server that granted full root access to unauthenticated users by splitting a 20-gadget ROP chain over multiple packets.
Plus this comparison with Claude 4.6 Opus:
Our internal evaluations showed that Opus 4.6 generally had a near-0% success rate at autonomous exploit development. But Mythos Preview is in a different league. For example, Opus 4.6 turned the vulnerabilities it had found in Mozilla’s Firefox 147 JavaScript engine—all patched in Firefox 148—into JavaScript shell exploits only two times out of several hundred attempts. We re-ran this experiment as a benchmark for Mythos Preview, which developed working exploits 181 times, and achieved register control on 29 more.
Saying "our model is too dangerous to release" is a great way to build buzz around a new model, but in this case I expect their caution is warranted.
Just a few days (last Friday) ago I started a new ai-security-research tag on this blog to acknowledge an uptick in credible security professionals pulling the alarm on how good modern LLMs have got at vulnerability research.
Greg Kroah-Hartman of the Linux kernel:
Months ago, we were getting what we called 'AI slop,' AI-generated security reports that were obviously wrong or low quality. It was kind of funny. It didn't really worry us.
Something happened a month ago, and the world switched. Now we have real reports. All open source projects have real reports that are made with AI, but they're good, and they're real.
Daniel Stenberg of
curl:The challenge with AI in open source security has transitioned from an AI slop tsunami into more of a ... plain security report tsunami. Less slop but lots of reports. Many of them really good.
I'm spending hours per day on this now. It's intense.
And Thomas Ptacek published Vulnerability Research Is Cooked, a post inspired by his podcast conversation with Anthropic's Nicholas Carlini.
Anthropic have a 5 minute talking heads video describing the Glasswing project. Nicholas Carlini appears as one of those talking heads, where he said (highlights mine):
It has the ability to chain together vulnerabilities. So what this means is you find two vulnerabilities, either of which doesn't really get you very much independently. But this model is able to create exploits out of three, four, or sometimes five vulnerabilities that in sequence give you some kind of very sophisticated end outcome. [...]
I've found more bugs in the last couple of weeks than I found in the rest of my life combined. We've used the model to scan a bunch of open source code, and the thing that we went for first was operating systems, because this is the code that underlies the entire internet infrastructure. For OpenBSD, we found a bug that's been present for 27 years, where I can send a couple of pieces of data to any OpenBSD server and crash it. On Linux, we found a number of vulnerabilities where as a user with no permissions, I can elevate myself to the administrator by just running some binary on my machine. For each of these bugs, we told the maintainers who actually run the software about them, and they went and fixed them and have deployed the patches patches so that anyone who runs the software is no longer vulnerable to these attacks.
I found this on the OpenBSD 7.8 errata page:
025: RELIABILITY FIX: March 25, 2026 All architectures
TCP packets with invalid SACK options could crash the kernel.
I tracked that change down in the GitHub mirror of the OpenBSD CVS repo (apparently they still use CVS!) and found it using git blame:

Sure enough, the surrounding code is from 27 years ago.
I'm not sure which Linux vulnerability Nicholas was describing, but it may have been this NFS one recently covered by Michael Lynch .
There's enough smoke here that I believe there's a fire. It's not surprising to find vulnerabilities in decades-old software, especially given that they're mostly written in C, but what's new is that coding agents run by the latest frontier LLMs are proving tirelessly capable at digging up these issues.
I actually thought to myself on Friday that this sounded like an industry-wide reckoning in the making, and that it might warrant a huge investment of time and money to get ahead of the inevitable barrage of vulnerabilities. Project Glasswing incorporates "$100M in usage credits ... as well as $4M in direct donations to open-source security organizations". Partners include AWS, Apple, Microsoft, Google, and the Linux Foundation. It would be great to see OpenAI involved as well - GPT-5.4 already has a strong reputation for finding security vulnerabilities and they have stronger models on the near horizon.
The bad news for those of us who are not trusted partners is this:
We do not plan to make Claude Mythos Preview generally available, but our eventual goal is to enable our users to safely deploy Mythos-class models at scale—for cybersecurity purposes, but also for the myriad other benefits that such highly capable models will bring. To do so, we need to make progress in developing cybersecurity (and other) safeguards that detect and block the model’s most dangerous outputs. We plan to launch new safeguards with an upcoming Claude Opus model, allowing us to improve and refine them with a model that does not pose the same level of risk as Mythos Preview.
I can live with that. I think the security risks really are credible here, and having extra time for trusted teams to get ahead of them is a reasonable trade-off.

Something a little different for the community here. What's your thought on Yorkshire devolution to the historic county?

I also know we have a really strong identity, proud folk and unique customs and dialect that make us an ideal group for one devolution. But I just wanted to know what people think? Do you want a Yorkshire Parliament like Wales's has? Or are you not that fussed? Lerrus av a kall abaht it!

🔗 r/Leeds Anyone near Headingley able to offer an emergency puppy cuddle for a very overdue pregnant woman? rss
Bit of an unusual one, but my sister-in-law is very overdue with her first baby, desperate to avoid induction, and absolutely mad about dogs, while sadly unable to own one.
I wondered whether anyone near Headingley has a friendly puppy and might be willing to let her have a short, supervised interaction, just some gentle fuss, cuddles, and a bit of puppy time. The hope, honestly, is to get a bit of oxytocin flowing and lift her spirits, as she completely melts around dogs.
We are not looking to borrow a dog or put anyone out, just a brief visit with the owner present, ideally somewhere convenient and public if that suits you better.
Bit of a long shot, but hey ho.
Thank you!

🔗 r/LocalLLaMA Auto-creation of agent SKILLs from observing your screen via Gemma 4 for any agent to execute and self-improve rss
| AgentHandover is an open-source Mac menu bar app that watches your screen through Gemma 4 (running locally via Ollama) and turns your repeated workflows into structured Skill files that any agent can follow. I built it because every time I wanted an agent to handle something for me I had to explain the whole process from scratch, even for stuff I do daily. So AgentHandover just watches instead. You can either hit record for a specific task (Focus Record) or let it run in the background where it starts picking up patterns after seeing you repeat something a few times (Passive Discovery).
Skills get sharper with every observation, updating steps, guardrails, and confidence scores as it learns more. The whole thing is an 11-stage pipeline running fully on-device, nothing leaves your machine, encrypted at rest. One- click agent integration through MCP so Claude Code, Cursor, OpenClaw or anything that speaks MCP can just pick up your Skills. Also has a CLI if you prefer terminal. SImple illustrative demo in the video, Apache 2.0, repo: https://github.com/sandroandric/AgentHandover Would love feedback on the approach and curious if anyone has tried other local vision or OS models for screen understanding...thxxx submitted by /u/Objective_River_5218

🔗 r/LocalLLaMA Turns out Gemma 4 had MTP (multi token prediction) all along rss
| Hey Everyone, While I was trying to utilize Gemma 4 through the LiteRT api in my android app, I noticed that Gemma 4 was throwing errors when loading it on my Google Pixel 9 test device of the "mtp weights being an incompatible tensor shape". I did some digging and found out there's additional MTP prediction heads within the LiteRT files for speculative decoding and much faster outputs. Well turns out I got confirmation today from a Google employee that Gemma 4 DOES INDEED have MTP but it was "removed on purpose" for "ensuring compatibility and broad usability". Well would've been great to be honest if they released the full model instead, considering we already didn't get the Gemma 124B model leaked in Jeff Dean's tweet by accident. Would've been great to have much faster Gemma 4 generation outputs, ideally on the already fast MoE. Maybe someone can reverse engineer and extract the tensors and the math based on the compute graph in LiteRT?

What's New in v0.17.1
v0.17.1 is a patch release that fixes PR review in the Pi extension and addresses several cross-platform bugs found during an exhaustive parity audit of every server endpoint between Bun and Pi runtimes.
Pi PR Review
The Pi extension's
plannotator-reviewcommand was completely ignoring PR URL arguments and always falling back to local git diffs. v0.17.1 implements the full PR review flow: URL parsing, authentication checks, PR metadata fetch, and local worktree creation for both same-repo and cross-repo PRs. Same-repo PRs usegit worktree add --detachwith the PR's head ref; cross-repo forks use a shallow clone with tracking refs for both branches.Beyond the missing PR flow, an audit of all 27 review server feature areas uncovered 12 parity gaps in the Pi server. These ranged from missing diagnostic logging on PR actions to incorrect access guards that would have allowed diff switching in PR mode. All have been fixed.
Remote URL Parsing
parseRemoteUrlhas been rewritten to handle the full range of git remote formats. The previous regex incorrectly matched HTTPS URLs with non-standard ports (e.g.,https://gitlab.example.com:8443/group/project.git) as SSH, and failed on multi-segment GitLab paths likegroup/subgroup/project. The new implementation handles SSH, SSH with port (ssh://git@host:22/path), standard HTTPS, and HTTPS with custom ports as separate cases. This fix applies to both Bun and Pi runtimes.Cross-Repo Clone Fixes
Cross-repo PR clones (forks from different organizations) had two issues. The
gh repo cloneandglab repo clonecommands don't accept a--hostnameflag, so self-hosted GitHub Enterprise and GitLab instances would fail. The fix usesGH_HOSTandGITLAB_HOSTenvironment variables instead, which both CLIs respect. The shallow fetch depth has also been increased from 50 to 200 commits to handle PRs with longer histories.Additional Changes
- Git Add button hidden in PR mode. The staging button was incorrectly visible during PR reviews because the server returned
diffType: undefinedand the client defaulted to "uncommitted". The client now disables staging when PR metadata is present - Diff viewer theme flash fix. Switching files in the diff viewer caused a brief flash of the wrong theme. The Pierre diff library's theme was being computed asynchronously via
requestAnimationFrame; the initial state now reads CSS custom properties synchronously so the correct background appears on the first frame - Resolved/Outdated filters in PR comments. The PR comments tab now has toggle buttons to hide resolved or outdated review threads. Filters use the same green and amber color tokens as the existing status badges and integrate with the existing Clear Filters control

🔗 r/LocalLLaMA Gemma 4 26b A3B is mindblowingly good , if configured right rss
Last few days ive been trying different models and quants on my rtx 3090 LM studio , but every single one always glitches the tool calling , infinite loop that doesnt stop. But i really liked the model because it is rly fast , like 80-110 tokens a second , even on high contex it still maintains very high speeds.
I had great success with tool calling in qwen3.5 moe model , but the issue i had with qwen models is that there is some kind of bug in win11 and LM studio that makes the prompt caching not work so when the convo hits 30-40k contex , it is so slow at processing prompts it just kills my will to work with it.
Gemma 4 is different , it is much better supported on the ollama cpp and the caching works flawlesly , im using flash attention + q4 quants , with this i can push it to literally maximum 260k contex on rtx 3090 ! , and the models performs just aswell.
I finally found the one that works for me , its the unsloth q3k_m quant , temperature 1 and top k sampling 40. i have a custom system prompt that im using which also might be helping.
I've been testing it with opencode for the last 6 hours and i just cant stop , it cannot fail , it exiplained me the whole structure of the Open Code itself , and it is a huge , like the whole repo is 2.7GB so many lines of code and it has no issues traversing around and reading everything , explaining how certain things work , i think im gonna create my own version of open code in the end.
It honestly feels like claude sonnet level of quality , never fails to do function calling , i think this might be the best model for agentic coding / tool calling / open claw or search engine.
I prefer it over perplexity , in LM studio connected to search engine via a plugin delivers much better results than perplexity or google.As for vram consumption it is heavy , it can probably work on 16gb it not for tool calling or agents , u need 10-15k contex just to start it. My gpu has 24gb ram so it can run it at full contex no issues on Q4_0 KV

🔗 Jessitron Adding Correctness Conditions to Code Changes rss
Today I looked at the first PR on our new project repo. It added a new
runscript, but the README didn’t mention it. The proposed change was incomplete, because the documentation was out of sync.Did I comment on the PR? heck no. I want to fix this problem for all PRs, not just this one. We can automate this stuff now.
Correctness condition: All PRs include updates to all relevant documentation files.
How can we make this true?
Instructions - We can change AGENTS.md to instruct our coding agent to look for documentation files and update them.
Verification - We can add a reviewer agent to check each PR for missed documentation updates.This is two changes, so I can break this work into two parts. Which of these should we do first?
Changing the instructions is easy.
If we do instructions first, it’s easy. It will work most of the time. When I try it on this little PR, it will certainly work, and then I can claim victory and move on to the next feature.
Then later, on some future PR, the agent will miss updating some documentation. Will I notice? No. In fact: I hope not. If I’m looking through PRs to a level of detail that includes all documents in the PR and also documentation files not in the PR, then we have failed to automate enough of this project. (This project does not deserve that level of scrutiny.)
Changing instructions without verification gives me no guarantee of my correctness condition.
Adding validation is sufficient.
If we do validation first, then every PR will be checked for missed documentation updates. Incorrect PRs will be rejected, so the coding agent will have to update the documentation.
My correctness condition will be guaranteed. Well, as guaranteed as I can get it with this nondeterministic automation. The reviewing agent will have only one task, so it won’t forget to check for needed documentation updates. If we ever catch it being wrong, then we must update its instructions.
If we never implement the instructions change, then PRs will take longer, because some agent has to respond to the PR comments, and then the feedback loop runs again.
With verification in place, the instructions change is an optimization!
Validation before implementation.
It’s a little like test-first development, but at a higher level. We’re adding a check to every feature implementation, not just one.
It’s more like property testing than unit testing. We aren’t hard-coding “every feature should update the README.” We’re stating a property: the documentation should be up-to-date after every feature change.
Now my PR reviews are also system reviews: what about this PR should have been different? How can we change the agent’s context and feedback to make that different? Now test that system change on this PR before we fix it.
This is the new Boy Scout Rule. It went from “leave the codebase cleaner than I found it” to “make the whole develoment system stronger than it was.”
It’s all part of programming the agents to program our software.

What's New in v0.17.0
v0.17.0 introduces AI-powered code review agents, token-level annotation in diffs, and merge-base diffs for PR-accurate comparisons. Three of the six PRs in this release came from external contributors, one of them a first-timer.
AI Code Review Agents
Codex and Claude Code can now run as background review agents directly from the Plannotator code review UI. Select an agent, launch it, and watch live log output stream into a detail panel while the agent works. When it finishes, its findings appear as external annotations in the diff viewer, tagged by severity.
Codex agents use their built-in
codex-reviewcommand and produce priority- level findings (P0 through P3). Claude agents use a custom multi-agent prompt covering bug detection, security, code quality, and guideline compliance, with each finding classified as important, nit, or pre-existing. Both agents' findings include reasoning traces that explain the logic behind each annotation.For PR reviews, the server automatically creates a local worktree so agents have full file access without affecting your working directory. Same-repo PRs use
git worktree; cross-repo forks use a shallow clone with tracking refs for both branches. Pass--no-localto skip the worktree if you don't need file access.The Pi extension has full agent review parity: stdin/stdout/stderr handling, live log streaming, result ingestion, and vendored review modules with import rewriting.
Token-Level Code Selection
The diff viewer now supports clicking individual syntax tokens to annotate them. Hover a token to see it underlined; click to open the annotation toolbar with the token's text and position as context (e.g., "Line 47:
processOrder"). Token metadata is stored on the annotation and surfaced in sidebar badges and exported feedback.Gutter-based line selection continues to work independently. The two selection modes don't interfere with each other.
Merge-Base Diffs
A new "Current PR Diff" option in the diff type selector uses
git merge-baseto find the common ancestor between your branch and the default branch, then diffs from that point. This produces the same diff you'd see on a GitHub pull request page. The existing "vs main" option (git diff main..HEAD) is still available but includes upstream changes that arrived after you branched, which can be noisy.Additional Changes
- @ file reference support in annotate. OpenCode-style
@file.mdreferences now resolve correctly in/plannotator-annotate. The resolver strips the leading@as a fallback when the literal filename doesn't exist, while still preferring real files named@something.mdif present (#488 by @Exloz) - Markdown hard line breaks and list continuations. Two-trailing-space and backslash hard breaks now render as
<br>elements. Indented continuation lines after list items merge into the preceding bullet instead of becoming orphan paragraphs (#483, closing #482) - Explicit local mode override. Setting
PLANNOTATOR_REMOTE=0orfalsenow forces local mode, bypassing SSH auto-detection. Previously only1/truehad explicit meaning (#481 by @foxytanuki, closing #480) - PR file content merge-base fix. File contents for expandable diff context are now fetched at the merge-base commit instead of the base branch tip. When the base branch has moved since the PR was created, the old file contents didn't match the diff hunks, causing crashes in the diff renderer. The fix fetches the merge-base SHA via GitHub's compare API and falls back gracefully if unavailable

🔗 r/york Original Ghost Walk (1973) vs. Mad Alice, which one should I book ? rss
Hi All, I'll be visiting York soon and I badly want to do a ghost tour. Ive been looking for choices and Im torn between 2.
I really love the fact that the Original Ghost Walk is the oldest in the world, that authenticity is pulling me.
But I see everyone raving about Mad Alice (The Bloody Tour) for the performance. For those who have done both, which one feels more like a genuine dive into York's history ? (or) should I even care about history and just look to have fun ?
I’m staying overnight specifically to do one of these, so I want to make sure I pick the one that actually feels worth after dark.

Hi, I’m 18 and based in Leeds. I’m really into the idea of filmmaking and creative stuff in general (making videos, trying out ideas, etc.), and I’d love to meet people around my age who are into the same kind of thing.
I’m still pretty new to it and trying to build a creative circle, so I’m supperr desperate for people who want to make things together, collaborate, or just chat about creative ideas.
If anyone knows of any places, groups, or communities in Leeds where people like this hang out, I’d really appreciate any suggestions too.
Feel free to message me if you’re interested 😭🙏🏾

🔗 sacha chua :: living an awesome life 2026-04-06 Emacs news rss
There's a lot of buzz around the remote code execution thing that involves Git, but it seems to be more of a Git issue than an Emacs one. This might be a workaround if you want, and in the meantime, don't check out git repositories you don't trust. There's no page for the Emacs Carnival for April yet, but you can start thinking about the theme of "newbies/starter kits" already, and I'm sure Cena or someone will round things up afterwards. Enjoy!

🔗 Pagefind/pagefind v1.5.0 release
Hey! This is a big one. Pagefind 1.5.0 has been fermenting for a while, and addresses a lot of long-standing issues and feature requests. This release brings an entirely new search UI built on web components, major improvements to search relevance and ranking, diacritics support, automatic CJK segmentation, Web Worker search, notably smaller indexes, and a much faster indexing binary. Enormous thanks to everyone who contributed features and fixes, as well as to everyone who tested the beta releases and provided feedback ❤️ - @bglw
If you only read this far, I should mention up front: The existing Default UI and Modular UI remain available and supported for now, so you can upgrade your sites to Pagefind v1.5.0 without migrating to the Component UI.
Pagefind Component UI
Pagefind ships a brand new UI system built entirely on web components. The Component UI gives you searchboxes, modals, result lists, and filter controls as composable
<pagefind-*>elements that you can mix, match, and style with CSS variables.The Component UI is available as vendored files in your
/pagefind/output directory, or as an npm package to install and import.The best way to get a feel for the new components is on the 📘 Pagefind Component UI page of the docs, where interactive examples of various components are shown.
Extra goodies with the Component UI:
- Greatly improved accessibility over the Default UI

Search Relevance, and Searching Metadata
Pagefind now searches metadata by default! Importantly, this means it now searches the title metadata. Matches in titles are now taken into account, and search results are very hard to shake from prime positions if all (or much) of the title matches the search query.
You can configure the weight of any metadata field. See 📘 Configuring Metadata Weights to change the title boost or apply custom weights to your own metadata fields.
Beyond metadata searching, a bunch of weird and wonderful ranking bugs were resolved:
- Metadata-only matches now return results. Previously, if a page matched the search query only in its metadata (e.g. the title) but not in the body content, it would be missed. These pages now correctly appear in results.
- Word splitting and indexing was revisited to properly handle diacritics, stemming, and compound words together. This fixes a broad set of edge cases where compound word parts weren't indexed correctly.
- Loading index chunks now correctly uses stemmed terms. This was a discrepancy in how chunks were identified, and could cause some hard to pin down issues where the wrong chunk would be loaded for a search term, leaving you with no (or fewer) results.
- A couple of pathways left you with only the first matching chunk loaded, which would also give you fewer results. Words that straddle multiple chunks now behave better.
- Fancy-pants unicode characters in words could really mess up the chunk loading, which has been fixed.
Diacritics Support
We finally properly support matching across diacritics. You can now find your cafés without remembering how to type é.
By default, exact diacritic matches are preferred. So if you're searching "cafe", pages with "cafe" will rank higher than pages with "café". Getting this relevance right by default was the final piece of the puzzle for shipping this, which is why it took a while to land. See 📘 Configuring Diacritic Similarity to adjust how this plays out on your site.
If you need strict matching, set
exactDiacritics: trueto disable normalization entirely — "cafe" will only match "cafe", and "café" will only match "café". 📘 Exact DiacriticsMultilingual Improvements
Thanks browsers! Pagefind now taps into Intl.Segmenter to chop search queries in CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) non-whitespace-delimited languages. This was already done during indexing by Pagefind, but users searching still had to delimit their queries. Now searching "这是一段简单的测试文本" searches for the words "这", "是", "一段", "简单", "的", "测试", and "文本", which is also how that sentence was indexed.
We also updated the underlying stemming library (thanks @uded !) which brings stemming support for Polish and Estonian (and Esperanto, if anyone is out there indexing some
lang="eo"pages). The Snowball upgrade also improves stemming quality across many already-supported languages.Indexing Performance
The indexing binary (the one you install through npx or your wrapper of choice) is now both smaller (so, faster to download) and faster to run, by quite a lot on both fronts. On some sites, indexing is more than twice as fast. Thanks to @zmre for much of this!
Search Performance
Pagefind's search now runs in a Web Worker automatically. This doesn't make the search faster, per se, but it dramatically improves perceived performance on large websites by keeping the main thread responsive. If Web Workers are unavailable, it falls back to the main thread automatically.
Plus: Some low-hanging fruit was picked off, and Pagefind's index chunks are now ~45% smaller thanks to delta-encoding page numbers and word locations.
New Search Options
metaCacheTag— Allows you to configure the cache-busting tag on the metadata file (which is fetched fresh on every page load). For offline/PWA scenarios where assets need to be served with service workers, this can now be overridden.plain_excerpt— Search results and sub-results now include aplain_excerptfield containing the excerpt text without highlight mark tags, for those who want to handle highlighting themselves (or don't want it at all).matchedMetaFields— Search results now include amatchedMetaFieldsfield listing which metadata fields matched the search query.includeCharactersis now available in the Node and Python wrapper APIs.
UI Translations
- Added Greek (el) translations. (PR #1019 — thanks @Yoda-Soda !)
- Improved Chinese Traditional (zh-TW) translations. (PR #990 —thanks @510208 !)
- Improved German (de) translations. (PR #953 —thanks @randomguy-2650 !)
- Added translations for new Component UI strings across all existing languages.
Other bits and bobs
- Fixed relative image URLs (e.g.
./image.png) breaking when displayed in search results. (PR #1087) - Fixed Python x86_64 macOS wheel being incorrectly tagged as
arm64. (PR #950 — thanks @lioman !) - Fixed Python wheel tags being written in compressed form. (PR #989 — thanks @ichard26 !)
- Excluded the vendor directory from the main
pagefindPyPI package. (PR #991) - Migrated Python wrapper build tooling from Poetry to uv. (PR #934 — thanks @SKalt !)
- Fixed subresult URLs ignoring page meta URL overrides. (PR #1076)
- Fixed subresult highlight mark color. (PR #1024)
- Index chunk fetches are now throttled to avoid overwhelming the network on large sites. (PR #1071)
- Added Windows ARM64 (
aarch64-pc-windows-msvc) as a supported platform. (PR #1079) - For crate consumers: Moved
actix-weband related serving dependencies behind aservefeature flag (PR #1023)
Looking Forward
The Component UI is the new recommended way to add search to your site, and future UI work will focus there. The Default UI and Modular UI are sticking around for now, but the Component UI is where new features will land first.
Thanks again to everyone who contributed to this release!

Moin,
mir ist jemand gegen das geparkte Auto gedonnert.
Verkleidung der Frontstoßstange und Kotflügel müssen gemacht werden.
Der Unfallverursacher ist bekannt und seine Versicherung zahlt.
Habt ihr Tipps für einen wirklich guten Karosseriebauer / Lackierer?
Und eventuell auch einen gescheiten Anwalt für Verkehrsrecht?

🔗 r/LocalLLaMA I technically got an LLM running locally on a 1998 iMac G3 with 32 MB of RAM rss
| Hardware: • Stock iMac G3 Rev B (October 1998). 233 MHz PowerPC 750, 32 MB RAM, Mac OS 8.5. No upgrades. • Model: Andrej Karpathy’s 260K TinyStories (Llama 2 architecture). ~1 MB checkpoint. Toolchain: • Cross-compiled from a Mac mini using Retro68 (GCC for classic Mac OS → PEF binaries) • Endian-swapped model + tokenizer from little-endian to big-endian for PowerPC • Files transferred via FTP to the iMac over Ethernet Challenges: • Mac OS 8.5 gives apps a tiny memory partition by default. Had to use MaxApplZone() + NewPtr() from the Mac Memory Manager to get enough heap • RetroConsole crashes on this hardware, so all output writes to a text file you open in SimpleText • The original llama2.c weight layout assumes n_kv_heads == n_heads. The 260K model uses grouped-query attention (kv_heads=4, heads=8), which shifted every pointer after wk and produced NaN. Fixed by using n_kv_heads * head_size for wk/wv sizing • Static buffers for the KV cache and run state to avoid malloc failures on 32 MB It reads a prompt from prompt.txt, tokenizes with BPE, runs inference, and writes the continuation to output.txt. Obviously the output is very short, but this is definitely meant to just be a fun experiment/demo! Here’s the repo link: https://github.com/maddiedreese/imac-llm submitted by /u/maddiedreese
