v2.0.1

Version 2.0.1

• Enabled Hugging Face download statistics for model downloads made by the app.
• Bumped the app’s d1 model bundle and runtime to 2.0.1.

Get started

1. Download and unzip Tinkerbox-ANE-2.0.1-macos-arm64.zip.
2. Move Tinkerbox.app to your Applications folder (or run it directly).
3. First Launch: Because the app is ad-hoc signed, macOS will prompt you on first run. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway, or run: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Tinkerbox.app
4. The app would download and cache model weights automatically.
