Whisper Unchained Server 0.9.6 (preview)

Preview installer, built by GitHub Actions from this commit (see Actions > Build installer). Changes since 0.9.5:

• The background server runs under its own limited Windows account instead of SYSTEM (falls back to SYSTEM, with a note in the install log, if it can't start that way).
• New installs keep no transcript log or recordings unless you turn them on (Settings > Audio Corpus), which also has a "Delete my history" button.
• Optional: keep dictations out of Windows clipboard history (Settings > Hotkey).

Not code-signed yet (signing is being set up): Windows shows "Windows protected your PC". Click More info, then Run anyway.

Whisper Unchained Server 0.9.5 (preview)

Preview installer. Changes since 0.9.4:

• New installs create an API key and require it by default. Your phone gets it from the pairing code, so there's nothing to copy. Settings > Phone has a "Require the key" switch to turn it off (the key stays saved, so devices that have it keep working).
• Setup always uses its own private Python, even if the PC already has one.

Whisper Unchained Server 0.9.4 (preview, security fixes)

Security fixes. Use this instead of 0.9.2 / 0.9.3.

• Fixed: two timestamp endpoints trusted the uploaded file's name, which could let someone on your network write or delete files on the PC.
• Oversized uploads are refused before they're read; requests from web pages are refused; /health no longer shows internal addresses; errors no longer echo internal details.
• Updated packages with published security advisories (Starlette, python-multipart, Pillow, urllib3, requests and others).

Whisper Unchained Server 0.9.3 (preview) - superseded

Preview installer. Changes since 0.9.2:

• Paste works in Chrome Remote Desktop again (it could paste a plain "v").
• Settings > Startup > Windows integration: Add/Remove buttons for the right-click "Transcribe to Clipboard" entry and start-at-login.

Whisper Unchained Server 0.9.2 (preview) - superseded

Superseded by v0.9.4, which fixes a security issue. Please use that instead.

First Windows installer preview.

• Installs into your own user folder (no admin for this part), adds Start-menu entries, then runs setup: a private Python, the packages, and the setup wizard.
• The wizard picks the speech model for your graphics card, finds AI servers you already run (Ollama, LM Studio, llama.cpp, vLLM, Unsloth Studio, Jan, KoboldCpp), offers Tailscale if other devices will use this PC, and installs the background server (one admin prompt).
• Uninstall from Windows Settings > Apps; it asks before deleting your settings, transcripts and models.
