ColdShelf v0.1.1

ColdShelf 0.1.1 is a packaging-integrity maintenance release. Use this build
for the latest verified downloads; application behavior and the catalog format
are unchanged from 0.1.0.

What changed

• The SPDX SBOM now inventories the modules compiled into the packaged Linux
  binary instead of describing only the release directory.
• Release automation now fails closed unless the inventory contains the Go
  standard library, SQLite runtime, and QR-code library.
• All six Windows, macOS, and Linux archives were rebuilt from the v0.1.1 tag
  with fresh SHA-256 checksums and GitHub build attestations.

The published SBOM contains 12 packages and was independently checked after
download. The Windows AMD64 archive was also downloaded into a fresh directory,
checksum-verified, and exercised through version reporting, demo creation, and
offline search.

For the project overview, screenshots, and quick start, see the
v0.1.0 launch notes
or the README.

ColdShelf v0.1.0

ColdShelf answers a very ordinary, very annoying question: which unplugged drive contains that file? It catalogs drive metadata once, then lets you search and browse the catalog while every drive is back on the shelf.

Highlights

• Scan folders and removable drives read-only; ColdShelf never moves, renames, or deletes source files.
• Search file names and paths offline through an embedded SQLite/FTS5 catalog.
• Browse drive contents, compare snapshots, and see additions, removals, and changes.
• Choose metadata-only, quick fingerprints, or complete SHA-256 hashes. Exact duplicate results require complete hashes.
• Give physical drives stable IDs, shelf/location notes, tags, and printable QR labels.
• Import Everything .efu catalogs and export JSON or CSV.
• Run as one cross-platform binary with an embedded local web interface, bound to loopback by default.

Quick start

coldshelf demo --serve

Or catalog a real drive:

coldshelf scan "E:\" --name "Blue Archive" --hash quick
coldshelf serve --open

Downloads

Choose the archive matching Windows, macOS, or Linux and either AMD64 (most Intel/AMD computers) or ARM64. Every archive includes the executable, installation guide, security notes, license, and third-party notices. Verify downloads with SHA256SUMS; GitHub build attestations are also published.

This is the first public release. Feedback from people managing offline drives, photo/video archives, field backups, and cold storage is especially useful.
