Noria v1.0.0 — First Public Release 🎉

Tag: v1.0.0
Release Date: 2026-06-05
Release Type: Stable


🚀 What's New in v1.0.0

This is the first stable, public release of Noria — a private, on-device agentic system for automated opportunity extraction, AI evaluation, and WhatsApp notification delivery.

Highlights

  • Standalone Windows ExecutableNoria.exe now works from any folder. No bat file, no manual setup. Double-click and you're running.
  • App-Mode UI — The Control Center no longer opens as a browser tab. It launches as its own dedicated application window (via Chrome/Edge --app mode), so it feels like a native desktop app.
  • Unified Dark UI — All input fields, textareas, dropdowns, and password fields now render with consistent dark backgrounds and clean borders — both locally and on Streamlit Community Cloud.
  • Agentic Control Center (Streamlit) — Fully functional visual dashboard for managing applicant profiles, scanning QR codes, configuring pipelines, and monitoring results in real time.
  • Hexagonal Architecture — Clean separation of core orchestrator, pure domain logic, and pluggable infrastructure adapters.
  • Triple-Layer Resilient Scraping — Jina → Puppeteer → Native Fetch fallback chain for maximum scraping reliability.
  • Dynamic Model Fallback — Automatic Gemini model promotion/demotion to handle 429 rate limits without interruption.
  • WhatsApp Integration — Link your phone by scanning a QR code. Noria listens to group/channel messages and sends match alerts automatically.

✨ Features

Core Engine

  • Event-driven pipeline orchestrator (src/core/pipeline.js)
  • Functional domain registry with interface validation (src/core/registry.js)
  • Decoupled global event broker (src/queue/)
  • URL deduplication cache with profile-level and device-level clearing

Domains

  • Scholarships pipeline — AI prompt, scoring schema, and WhatsApp notification template
  • Jobs pipeline — AI prompt, scoring schema, and WhatsApp notification template

Infrastructure

  • Scrapers: Jina Reader API, Puppeteer headless browser, resilient native fetch
  • LLM: Gemini adapter with structured generation, fallback model chain, exact 429 delay extraction
  • Messaging: WhatsApp listener (session-persistent) + stateless WhatsApp sender

Control Center UI

  • Profile management (create, edit, delete applicant profiles)
  • Real-time scan monitoring and logs
  • QR code display for WhatsApp device linking
  • API key configuration with guided helper links
  • Premium dark theme with WhatsApp green highlights

🛠 Technical Changes (since pre-release)

  • Rewrote scripts/launcher.cs to resolve paths relative to the executable's own directory — eliminates run_noria.bat was not found error
  • Launcher now invokes python -m streamlit run directly, removing bat-file dependency entirely
  • Launcher opens UI in Chrome/Edge --app mode as a standalone window; falls back to default browser if neither is found
  • Fixed CSS selectors in ui/styles.py using direct child selectors (> div) to eliminate stray borders on password eye toggle and dropdown elements
  • Unified background color for all form inputs, textareas, and selectboxes
