Metafor 0.4.9 Preview
Pre-release
Metafor 0.4.9 requires your own API key during first-time setup.
- The first-open guide now leads directly to Add API key. Blank keys are rejected, and setup reopens after restarting if no key was saved.
- Fresh Mac profiles start with no chats or Help history. The installer includes no saved conversations, credentials, or user profile.
- Reinstalling preserves existing local chats and unsent drafts. Existing saved-key recovery remains available.
Apple silicon · macOS 26 or later. Open the DMG and drag Metafor into Applications. Model answers require internet access and your own API key; Meta is the default provider. Help asks for Screen Recording permission, and screen questions share a snapshot with your configured AI provider.
This preview is ad-hoc signed, not Developer ID signed or notarized. macOS may require approval in System Settings → Privacy & Security before opening it.
Validation: 214 desktop tests, TypeScript, desktop packaging, strict app signature verification, and DMG integrity checks pass. The packaged main process, preload, renderer, and Chromium storage were checked with two isolated profiles: both began empty, key setup was required, and a saved conversation plus unsent draft survived relaunch unchanged. Native windows were hidden, Keychain was mocked, and zero provider requests were made; the check did not access the user's profile or test live-provider authentication.
A SHA-256 checksum file is included with the download.
