BoBe 0.9.2 for Mac: setting up local AI works again, and BoBe now lives in the Dock.
Requires macOS 26 or later on a Mac with Apple Silicon, and a model: an API key (OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, OpenRouter), a Rail Relay token, a supported provider sign-in (OpenAI, GitHub Copilot), or Ollama on your own machine.
Install: download BoBe-0.9.2.dmg, open it and drag BoBe to Applications. BoBe 0.9.0 and 0.9.1 offer this update themselves.
What's fixed
- Local AI. Setting BoBe up with AI on your own Mac failed with "fetch failed", and local models stopped working after BoBe or the Mac restarted. BoBe now starts its own Ollama whenever it starts.
- Dock. BoBe has a Dock icon and shows in the app switcher. Clicking the icon brings her back, and the Window menu lists her.
Updating from 0.9.0 or 0.9.1: your conversations, memory, goals and settings carry over; nothing changes in the database.
Updating from 0.8.1: your conversations, memory, goals and settings carry over. On the first start BoBe upgrades its database, and 0.8.1 cannot open it afterwards.
Updating from 0.2.0: BoBe starts fresh and opens setup again.
Linux (x86_64): bobe-daemon-0.9.2-linux-x86_64.tar.gz is the standalone daemon, built on Ubuntu 24.04. It runs on Ubuntu 24.04 or later with ca-certificates installed. A daemon that uses BoBe's own Ollama now starts it again after a restart. Ubuntu is not release-qualified yet, so treat Linux as a development target.
