Akashic 0.1.0-alpha.5 — unsigned testing alpha
Pre-release
Pre-release
Akashic 0.1.0-alpha.5 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.
- Reusing an already-ready connection preserves its ready status.
- 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 or alpha.4. 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.
