v2.0.0

This is a docs-only release.

Summary

v2.0.0 refreshes the public README and related documentation to reflect the current MLX Server Manager feature set through v1.9.0.

No app code was changed in this release.

Updated

  • Updated the README introduction
  • Added a clearer “What This Is” section
  • Refined the “What This Is Not” boundary
  • Updated the feature list for the v1.9.0 feature set
  • Updated Direct Mode wording
  • Updated docs links
  • Updated distribution and testing docs to reference the current v1.9.0 binary
  • Updated External Server Detection, Adopt External Server, and Connection Settings docs to match the current implementation state
  • Updated task notes for v2.0.0

Current Feature Set

The README now reflects the current feature set:

  • Start / Stop / Restart managed mlx_lm.server
  • Readiness checks via /v1/models
  • Managed server logs and memory visibility
  • Model profiles
  • Advanced Launch Options
  • External Server Detection
  • Adopt External Server
  • Forget External Server
  • Connection Settings Current Target summary
  • Copy actions for Base URL, Model ID, API key placeholder, JSON config, Hermes Agent config, and /v1/models readiness checks

Direct Mode Boundary

Direct Mode remains unchanged:

OpenAI-compatible client -> mlx_lm.server or adopted external server -> MLX model

MLX Server Manager does not proxy inference requests, act as a chat UI, or become a multi-backend wrapper.

Ownership Boundary

External Server Detection and Adopt External Server documentation now better reflects the current behavior.

Adopted External Server remains connection context only. MLX Server Manager does not take ownership of external processes, stop them, restart them, kill them, monitor their memory, or collect their logs.

Not Changed

  • No Swift changes
  • No Xcode project changes
  • No build setting changes
  • No new app binary
  • No new zip asset
  • No inference proxy
  • No chat UI
  • No multi-backend wrapper
  • No external process ownership changes

Current Binary Asset

The current downloadable app binary remains the v1.9.0 unsigned build:

MLXServerManager-v1.9.0-unsigned.zip

This v2.0.0 release does not include a new binary asset.
