Flow 0.3.0 — local stable with experimental opt-in
Flow 0.3.0 keeps dictation fully local with Parakeet and Qwen, and adds an opt-in experimental release channel.
- Open Settings → Build → Experimental build to download the MAI + Flash-Lite release, then click Restart Flow.
- Experimental sends audio and text through OpenRouter and requires your own API key and paid usage. Stable remains local.
- Turn the toggle off and restart to return to your saved stable build, including without an internet connection.
- Updates stay in the selected channel. Downloads are verified against the release checksum.
- Local models, settings and history are preserved when switching.
Install: unpack the Linux x86_64 archive and run bash packaging/install.sh, then open Flow. Existing users can update from About. New stable installs fetch their local models in the app.
Validation: daemon and console tests, clippy, GitHub release build, archive checksums, installer migration tests, bad-download/checksum rejection, and switching both packaged builds in an isolated install.
