LocalAI Release Notes

Version 2.0 - The Intelligence Update

Release Date: January 20, 2026

LocalAI 2.0 represents a major architectural leap, introducing a complete Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipeline. This release transforms the tool from a simple connector into a context-aware coding assistant that understands your specific project structure.

🌟 New Features

🧠 Advanced RAG Pipeline

  • Semantic Search: Queries are now processed for intent and meaning, not just keyword matching. The system finds relevant code even if you use different terminology.
  • Dependency Awareness: The search engine now builds a graph of your code's structure. It "reads" your code to understand inheritance, method calls, and references, surfacing deeply related files.
  • Conversation Memory: LocalAI now remembers your previous questions in the session. You can ask follow-up questions like "How can I optimize that?" or "Refactor this class" without restating context.

⚡ Performance & Experience

  • Real-Time Streaming: Responses from Gemini now stream in word-by-word. No more staring at a loading spinner waiting for the logic to generate.
  • Background Indexing: Indexing large projects happens asynchronously. You can continue working in the Unity Editor while LocalAI learns your codebase in the background.
  • Sub-100ms Search: New vector clustering optimizations ensure instant answers, even in projects with 10,000+ scripts.

🎯 Accuracy & Feedback

  • Relevance Feedback Loop: A new rating system allowing you to mark results as helpful or not. LocalAI learns from this feedback to rank future search results better for your specific needs.
  • Quality Test Suite: Comprehensive automated testing ensures the retrieval engine maintains high accuracy and precision.

🛠️ Improvements & Fixes

  • UI Overhaul: Cleaned up the Editor Window interface with better displaying of code blocks and search results.
  • Stability: Fixed compilation errors in the service layer and improved error handling for network timeouts.
  • Gemini Integration: Enhanced system prompts for better Unity-specific code generation (Unity 2021.3+ best practices).

📦 Upgrade Instructions

  1. Import the new LocalAI.unitypackage.
  2. Navigate to Tools > LocalAI > Settings.
  3. Click Rebuild Index to generate the new semantic vector store for your project.
