Publication status

Standalone Python packages for 0.16.0 are now published on PyPI. The successful publication run verified complete CI on Python 3.11-3.14 for the exact tagged source, repeated Windows, macOS and Linux qualification, and passed dependency auditing, lint, formatting, clean-install distribution validation and signed provenance, source-binding and SBOM verification. The earlier release run exceeded its 45-minute build limit before uploading packages.

The signed desktop installers passed installed live-model acceptance on Windows and macOS: file creation and verification, Stop, and restart persistence. Alysis account status and billing lookup passed on both platforms, including a fresh browser sign-in on macOS. The Windows 0.1.51-to-0.1.57 upgrade also preserved existing settings and data.

This release includes source, standalone Python packages and desktop downloads. Run alysis update to upgrade an existing CLI installation. The desktop installers above bundle the same engine 0.16.0. A fresh isolated installation from PyPI reported version 0.16.0 and clean source commit bdeaac478828; both package SHA-256 digests match the GitHub release assets. The v0.16.0 source tag remains unchanged.

Google Workspace integration requires publisher OAuth configuration and is not included in the validated sign-in scope.
