Image Prompt Library v0.8.0 - Native Windows Quick Start
Image Prompt Library now has a native Windows quick start, with the same local-first experience already available on macOS, Linux, and WSL.
Highlights
- Install and run natively on Windows 10 or 11 with PowerShell 5.1+.
- Manage the app in the background with
start,stop,status, anddoctorcommands. - Keep versioned application installs separate from your private prompt library.
- Verify release manifests, checksums, and downloaded archives before installation.
- Recover from handled update failures and roll back to a validated previous version.
- Load optional English, Simplified Chinese, or Traditional Chinese sample data.
- Continue using the existing macOS, Linux, and WSL installer without changes.
Windows Requirements
- Windows 10 or 11
- PowerShell 5.1 or later
- Python 3.10 or later
The installer does not install Python, Node.js, or other system dependencies automatically.

Your private prompt library is stored outside versioned application files. Normal updates, rollbacks, and uninstalls preserve it.
Deleting the library requires an explicit destructive command:
image-prompt-library uninstall --delete-libraryUpdate an Existing Installation
image-prompt-library update --version v0.8.0Notes
- The public
.cmdlauncher works when the calling PowerShell session uses theRestrictedexecution policy without changing the user's policy. - Windows packages are currently unsigned, so SmartScreen behavior may vary by system policy.
- Transactional recovery covers handled installer and runtime failures; it is not durable recovery from an operating system or power interruption.
- Prompt data, SQLite storage, and images remain on the user's machine unless the user chooses an external service.
See the installation guide and troubleshooting guide for more details.
