[0.9.1] — 2026-08-16

A distribution and evaluation maintenance release. Forge 0.9.1 adds a
standalone, dependency-free delivery path for Forge Proxy without changing the
0.9 forwarding, routing, or guardrail contract. It also extends managed
llama.cpp operation and publishes the latest v0.9 evaluation work.

Added

  • Standalone Forge Proxy distribution. One-file artifacts for Windows x64,
    Linux x64/glibc, and macOS ARM64 include Forge and their private Python 3.14
    runtime. Thin PowerShell and POSIX bootstraps verify exact release manifests
    and checksums before handing installation to the frozen executable.
  • Profile and installation lifecycle commands. forge-proxy init,
    check, update, and uninstall provide sparse TOML profiles, offline
    validation, immutable version slots, forward updates, exact-version recovery,
    PATH integration, and profile-preserving removal. Installation remains
    noninteractive and prints explicit configuration steps for humans and
    external wrappers.
  • Cross-platform Proxy release gates. Candidate and exact-tag workflows
    build and exercise Windows, Linux, and macOS artifacts; the selected Linux
    bytes are additionally checked on Ubuntu 22.04, Debian 12, and Fedora. Frozen
    lifecycle coverage includes installation, initialization, health checking,
    update/recovery, safe failure before promotion, and uninstall.
  • Managed llama.cpp RPC operation. Forge can own a one-worker RPC topology,
    use it from canonical managed-backend lifecycles, and stop the worker through
    its foreground SSH session. DeepSeek V4 campaign guidance and topology
    examples accompany the new path. #143
  • Expanded v0.9 evaluation publication. Published results now include Muse
    Glimmer and Qwen3.8 27B reasoning-effort sweeps, with explicit effort metadata
    and updated managed-server recipes. #143, #144

Changed

  • Evaluation outcome and publication vocabulary is explicit. Collection,
    reports, dashboards, dataset metadata, and citation guidance now distinguish
    task outcomes from run health and carry the clarified publication contract
    consistently. #141
  • Python 3.14 is supported. The source package remains compatible with
    Python 3.12 and 3.13, while CI now covers 3.14 and standalone Proxy artifacts
    use Python 3.14 as their bundled private runtime.
