Akashic 0.1.0-alpha.4 is an unsigned testing alpha for Windows and Linux.

  • The desktop can load while its bundled runtime is verified, instead of leaving the app invisible during the full integrity check. Backend execution still waits for successful verification.
  • Local startup timestamps now separate window reveal from runtime verification, making slow launches easier to diagnose.
  • Includes the blue application/installer icon and theme-transition performance improvements merged since alpha.3.

This release does not claim lower idle RAM or a measured speedup on every laptop. The original slow Windows first launch occurred with critically low disk space, so it is not a controlled benchmark.

Use Akashic’s normal update control to upgrade from alpha.3. Profiles and conversations are retained. Older rehearsal builds with updates disabled require a one-time manual install. Windows installers remain unsigned and can show an unknown-publisher/SmartScreen warning. macOS is deferred.
