v2.0.2

macOS app build. Download the zip below, unzip, drag the .app into /Applications. First open (unsigned app): double-click it, then go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and click 'Open Anyway'. You only do this once. (This extra step exists only because the app isn't signed with an Apple Developer certificate — I'd rather not pay Apple's $100/year developer fee just to remove it.)

What's new in v2.0.2

Adds a link beside the player names that opens the current game on Lichess or Chess.com, and makes the in-app AI coach smarter: it now reads a decoded board alongside every position so weaker local models stop misreading it, and it can answer questions about how to use the app itself. This release also folds in the earlier 2.0.1 fixes for native arm64 Stockfish installation on Apple Silicon Macs and a browser scroll-bar visual glitch.

What's new in v2.0.0

Puzzle Mode update. A full tactics trainer joins game review, plus native Chess.com support.

Puzzle trainer: a new mode alongside Analyze. Solve rated tactics puzzles,
race the clock in a timed Storm rush, and build a daily streak. Your first
puzzle loads instantly, even offline.

From your games: a second puzzle source turns your own past blunders into
practice positions, with a "train my weaknesses" filter that focuses on the
kinds of mistakes you make most.

AI coaching on every puzzle: unlike a plain puzzle site, the built-in coach
explains why the tempting move fails and walks you through the right line. When
a Storm run ends, an AI review points out what you missed, and each puzzle can
be reopened on the board.

Chess.com support: fetch any Chess.com player's recent games by username, and
auto-sync your own new games on launch. Works alongside Lichess and Paste PGN.

Local AI, one click: detect and pick a local Ollama model from Settings to run
the chat and coach with no Claude account needed.
