Sioul 0.0.11

Sioul 0.0.11: calm notifications, one night's alarm

Update every device together: an older Sioul drops a night's own alarm
switch when it rewrites the day's file.

• Notifications, one model: every notice Sioul posts is about one thing,
  and a click on it opens that thing: the message, the event, the task, the
  site. What is only to know (the pause to move, a meal, the time to leave,
  new mail, a site's message) goes after a few minutes, five unless set in
  Settings ▸ What reaches you; what is to do (a code, a dose, an event's own
  alarm, a call, the alarm at waking) stays until it is done or over. A new
  notice takes the place of the last of its kind, so a day left open no
  longer stacks a dozen "Time to move". None is critical unless it passes a
  do-not-disturb that holds now. What cannot come now waits, and comes while
  it is still worth telling.
• No agenda in notifications: the evening reminder of tomorrow's events
  goes; the agenda stays on the Porch.
• Mail: a message is told only while its address's hours are open; a click
  opens that message, never the mailbox; a message told on one device is
  never told again on another. Codes you asked for wait on the Porch while
  you sleep.
• Sites: a web app's notification, from a chat or a mail site, opens that
  site in Sioul at the conversation it is about, and shows the site's own
  icon.
• On a phone: Sioul's notices no longer fold under its status card, which
  says fixed words instead of the time of day. Two channels, to know and to
  act on, each with its group; codes are hidden on the lock screen. What
  Sioul gathers from other apps comes back in a quiet window, without a
  sound where Android would ring each return; linked to one of your
  computers, Sioul makes the gathered apps' channels silent itself, never a
  channel that carries codes, reminders or people.
• Health: a night changed after midnight is the night going on, and its
  alarm rings at the new time that morning; a change made on another device
  re-arms the phone's alarm. Each night and each nap has its own alarm
  switch for that one alone, and a nap's alarm rings at its end.
• Sounds: the noises and the sounds of nature are made as they play, never
  looping: waves rolling in on a gently sloping beach, a darker and calmer
  wind, birds at dawn singing real syllables, without static.

Sioul 0.0.10

Sioul 0.0.10: light on the battery, tablets, search

Update every device.

• Light on the battery: left open all day, the window uses about 1 % of one
  core at rest on a computer (3 % in 0.0.9), and 0.8 % on a phone. It works
  only when something changed: the Porch keeps what it already sorted, the
  calendars and shared files are read again only when they change, a window
  put away draws nothing, and a phone's quiet looks are spaced to its mail's
  round. A dead line ends a pull at once instead of keeping the radio up.
• Tablets: each device knows whether it is a phone, a tablet or a computer,
  and Settings can say otherwise. The layout follows the window's room, calls
  and texts come only where there is telephony, and a tablet gets the
  reminders a computer gets.
• Search: Tasks and the Agenda each have a Search tab that finds tasks and
  events by words, project, type, category, dates, guests and status, also as
  sioul tasks search. Select several to change their project, type, day,
  status or list together, with Undo.
• Everything in the lists: mail lists, the full task list and What comes show
  all they hold, loading more as you scroll, with no two-week horizon.
• Mail security: an encrypted message with recipients in Bcc goes as one copy
  for each of them, so that no recipient can read which key was added for
  someone in Bcc. Decrypted attachments are overwritten with zeros when they
  leave the cache, and a crash leaves no core file unless SIOUL_CORE_DUMP=1
  asks for one. OpenPGP checks designated revokers and says when a signature's
  key was revoked or had expired.
• Sharing between devices: a device silent for 30 days no longer keeps the
  others' old shared data around; a file locked on the server holds back that
  file alone; an invoice number is never given twice; a project's route
  changed on two devices stays one route, and a meeting keeps its lines when a
  server rewrites its stamps.
• The reminders' watcher follows an install and starts again when it ended.
  The command line speaks French. A new configuration reads once which
  languages your mail is written in.
• Windows: Put back no longer writes over a note that another program
  rewrote in the same instant.
• Also: the Bitwarden chooser finds a login by its site's domain, and an
  address the map service cannot read is asked of others.

Sioul 0.0.9

Sioul 0.0.9: every device trains its own models

Update every device; an older Sioul keeps reading the last shared table it has.

• Every device trains its own spam filter and mail topics, a phone or a tablet
  as much as a computer: "Train here", per device, on by default, once a week at
  most, while charging and idle. Measured on 3,457 messages: about a minute on
  a computer, four and a half on a phone's efficiency cores.
• The training's mail downloads on any network by default, or on unmetered
  networks only, per device.
• Topics learn from your mail since forever, not only the mail kept on a device,
  and two devices with the same mail and labels make the same table.
• A training past 30 minutes stops, and that device takes the others' tables
  instead; heat only postpones a run. Turning "Train here" off stops a run.
• The shared tables stop travelling once every device learns, and travel again
  while one doesn't. No device ever deletes its own table.

Not yet tried: a real phone's training in the background, a real metered
network, how much a first download costs on a phone.

Sioul 0.0.8

Sioul 0.0.8: your people, one agenda, money as it moves, invitations

Update every computer first, then the phone, and do not go back to 0.0.7:
it does not know the new records of money, availability and meetings.

• Your people: a person is one object across Sioul, tied to their papers,
  contacts, budgets and agendas. An agenda can hold a child's events, with who
  takes them, stand-ins and who does what.
• One agenda: meals, naps, nights, tasks and events on one timeline, each with
  its name. Drag a block or its edges in 5-minute steps; a task plan moves
  around it and says so. "Had it" for what came early, "+" on an empty stretch.
  Time zones, series with any interval, calendar files opened and imported.
• The event card: status, participants and their answers, a map on press,
  directions by geo:, addresses suggested as you type.
• Invitations for meetings you organize: guests with suggestions, each meeting
  told by your drafts or by its server, never both, said before saving. Status
  and deleting one time of a series are told the same way.
• Hours by pointer or by keyboard: a grid of hours and minutes in every form,
  typed times read as 1430, 14:30, 14h30 or 930.
• Tasks: a due hour that means "done by"; a task before one time of a repeating
  event, its date following that time; checklists, Markdown notes, an appointment
  and its steps tied both ways.
• Availability: several availabilities, each shared several ways, the server's
  way first, kept up to date from your freshest device.
• Money: what was paid, the fees and what arrived, payouts that carry their
  payments, four tabs, the history of money mail, the declaration and its
  receipts register as CSV and PDF.
• Mail: all addresses in one list, a Letters page, topics with presets and manual
  tagging, one filter by area and address. Spam, Not spam, and leaving the lists
  of mail you called spam: one click, for proven senders only, with ten seconds
  to undo and a switch in Settings.
• Ties: Ctrl+G opens the chain of what each thing is tied to, both ways.
• Every change reaches every view, and comes back from other programs too.
• Fixes in sync: an event moved twice stays moved and on a server; one draft for
  one guest and one change; a sync does not stop on one item.

Not yet tried against real servers: sharing and scheduling on Nextcloud, Google
Calendar's API, and what other programs do with what Sioul sends. Say what you
see: the issues are open.

New since 0.0.5

Update every device you share with, together. Dose reminders now rest on a word each device gives the others, which a device on 0.0.5 cannot give; and 0.0.5 keeps the new reminders file's changes waiting.

• Dose reminders, one plain reminder per dose: a reminder is plain only on the device that knows it is the dose's first; any other says "Check first" and names the device that may have reminded you. A computer reminds plainly first only once your phone has acknowledged that it is open. On Linux, a reminder that could not show is never recorded as shown, so your phone rings for it. What Sioul still cannot know is written in the guide's Health page.
• The phone sleeps more: a computer left on counts as "in use" at night only while someone is at it, so the phone wakes about 4 times an hour while you sleep instead of 30. Texts are imported when they arrive. The phone's log says, at each review, what its listener holds and why, without a name.
• Close the day from anywhere: Close the work day and Close the whole day in the tray menu on Linux, Windows and macOS; the notices carry their buttons on macOS; a click on the notice opens the sheet on Windows; the phone gets the two notices, in a quiet "End of the day" channel.
• Microsoft mail: Outlook.com, Hotmail, Live, MSN and Microsoft 365 addresses sign in through Microsoft (no password). Until Sioul's own registration is done, each person signs in with an application of their own (the form shows the steps). Work and school accounts need their administrator's approval once; they never go to the AI shield or to agents; the spam filter learns only from the addresses you named when you pressed Train now, never from work accounts.
• French: an e-mail is a « courriel »; « courrier » is the post again. Paper letters (the scans folder) show on the Porch before any scan arrives, with Open the folder and Add a scan….
• The sharing folder stays small: replaced notes and papers leave the folder after two weeks (once every device runs 0.0.6), the phone's deletions now reach the server when its sync app sends the same file again, and a large note or paper is sealed only once it has been still for ten minutes. Updating from 0.0.5 or earlier: pointers to earlier versions older than 12 days leave the list at the first tidy (within the hour).
• Windows and icons: the window follows Windows' dark setting; the icons follow the window's colours (Windows 10 in dark mode, the phone in night mode); the Linux AppImage shows its icons again.
• Steadier: a stuck session bus no longer freezes the sharing or keeps Sioul from quitting; GnuPG 2.4.4's keys are read whole; a crafted key file can no longer crash Sioul.

Checked by adversarial reviews and simulations. Not yet tried on real hardware: Microsoft's own sign-in (it needs the registration), the window's dark mode on Windows 10, the macOS notices' buttons, and the phone's End-of-the-day notices.

Sioul 0.0.5

New since 0.0.4

Update every device you share with. This version fixes how records are read across devices; files written by 0.0.4 and older are still read the old way.

• Edits on two devices are neither lost nor doubled: money lines, time sessions, pinned sites, routines and the words you add each have a stable identity, and every page applies only what you changed. The sharing gained a format version: a device on an older Sioul never writes a part it would garble, and Settings says which device holds the new format back.
• A dose marked taken never reads as not taken because one device's records arrived out of order: a reader now enters a continued record only after reading the one before to its end, and says the doubt meanwhile.
• The phone sleeps more: Sioul no longer makes your sync app rescan at every step while its own connection to your server works, holds the phone awake only while it works, uses one connection per step, and writes nothing when nothing changed.
• Dose reminders say their doubt: an alarm trusts what it fetched only when the fetch went through after the alarm began; with no news since, a computer last seen closed is said in doubt ("check before taking it").
• Security: names, titles and folder names from outside are shown as words (a hidden image in an event's title no longer loads, nor crashes the window); a crafted message no longer freezes the window, and messages open on a thread of their own; your login goes only to your own server.
• Texts: switching between conversations no longer freezes the window on long threads with photos.
• Calendars and contacts: your version of a conflicting event or contact is kept among the earlier versions and can be put back on any device; one bank account under two names counts its money once.

Checked by adversarial reviews and simulations of two and three devices; not yet tried on real hardware: the phone's battery figures, and devices switching to the new format.

Sioul 0.0.4

New since 0.0.3

• Texts on your computer: your phone's SMS and MMS are archived in your sealed sharing, and a Texts page, laid out like Mail, shows conversations and their threads. A text written on a computer is sent by your phone, never twice. Your phone's notifications reach your computers' Porch, at the times their sender may reach you, when you turn this on.
• Sharing within seconds: what you save is sent to your Nextcloud over WebDAV a few seconds later, beside the sync app. Large files get the time their size needs on a slow line. "Stop sharing" asks first, and what the sharing writes can be read by you alone.
• Calls in your sites: change the camera, the microphone or the speaker during a call, from a button in the site's bar; the change takes effect at once, in pop-ups and frames too. On X11, sites are drawn in your screen's colours, and "Calmer colours" softens them.
• A third less memory for the window's own process: Chromium and the sound and video libraries start only when a site or a call needs them.
• Mail you can trust on your projects: a project's page, and the AI agents you open a project to, take mail as the Porch does, so forged mail claiming a client never joins a project. Attachments too large for the antivirus say so; brands that are everyday words ("Orange County Library") are no longer taken for impersonation.
• Health: prescriptions with one row per medicine and per take, a generic name and a strength per medicine, and a full-screen view to show a doctor or a pharmacist. A dose whose reminder could not be shown is asked about under its own question.
• Tasks and money: costs as four 0–10 tiles; a wait can say its gap ("then wait two weeks"); invoices print the period of the service; events marked free and invitations you declined take no room in your plan.
• Words you can change: the words Sioul looks for in mail, texts and calls are data, in five languages; one name, "project", everywhere; Garmin is taken out.
• Security keys and GnuPG: import from GnuPG, renew for two years (each expired subkey named), send to keys.openpgp.org; a key made in Sioul keeps its revocation certificate.
• About 60 bugs fixed, among them the French labels on the phone's tiles and widgets.

New, and not yet tried on real hardware: changing devices during a call on real cameras, macOS notifications and Tesseract on Windows.

Sioul 0.0.3

New since 0.0.2

• What reaches you, and when, in one place: mail, calls, other apps' messages, your sites and Sioul's own reminders follow the same rules at each time of your day (work, your admin, leisure, meals, sleep, a pause, free time), set in one settings tab and said in sentences.
• Do-not-disturb belongs to you, not to a device: turned on or off on any of your devices, or in its own system (Android's tile, a schedule, Plasma, GNOME), it follows on all of them. Android gets a "Do not disturb (Sioul)" tile in its quick settings.
• Your own spam filter: Sioul learns spam from your own mail, on your computer, and Sioul's own checks of each message's signatures and sender count as evidence. It judges strangers' mail only; what it catches waits in "Caught by your own spam filter", never notified; your "Not spam" always wins and teaches it. It trains again by itself once a week on the computer that trains, only on mains power and when the computer is idle. Only its small table travels to your phone, sealed.
• Mail filters: rules on the sender, recipients, subject, text, attachments, date and size, that move, archive, mark as spam, flag, mark as read, add a keyword or move to the trash. They run on new unread mail, on whichever of your devices fetches it first, never twice. "Try it" counts what a filter takes; running them on your inboxes says what would change first, with ten seconds to undo.
• Advanced search: "More…" beside the search box: conditions on everything, searched in the mail kept here, then on the servers for older mail; the results beside the reader; "Make it a filter…" turns a search into a filter.
• Drag and drop: one message or a whole selection onto any folder of any address, each address's moves in one connection, with ten seconds to undo; touch selection and "Move to…" from the keyboard too.
• Your OpenPGP key on a security key (a YubiKey or another OpenPGP card), on computers: messages are signed at Send and encrypted mail opens with the key's PIN and a touch; the private keys never leave the key. It needs the system's smart-card service (pcscd on Linux).
• Calls on every device: your phone's screened calls are kept for a month and shared, sealed, with your computers, whose Porch lists the calls your phone declined, calmly; "Seen" on one device clears them everywhere.
• On the phone's home screen: the latest mail and your next appointments, without counts.
• Wider settings panels on a computer; the Porch's titles wrap rather than lose words.
• For developers: an API reference built from the code, and guides for newcomers to Rust, Qt Quick, Fluent and Android.

New, and not yet tried on real hardware: security keys (tested with simulated keys), and do-not-disturb followed both ways on a phone.

Sioul's packages, built by GitHub from this version's sources. Sioul is young: keep a copy of your mail and your notes elsewhere, as with any new program.

System	Package	How
Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit)	sioul-0.0.3-setup.exe	Run it; Windows may say it does not know the publisher (the package is not signed yet): "More info", then "Run anyway".
macOS 13 and later, Apple silicon and Intel	Sioul-0.0.3-macos-universal.dmg	Open it and drag Sioul into Applications. It is not notarised yet: the first time, open it from Applications, then System Settings ▸ Privacy & Security ▸ "Open Anyway".
Linux, any distribution (x86-64)	Sioul-0.0.3-x86_64.AppImage	chmod +x Sioul-*.AppImage, then run it. On Ubuntu 24.04 and later, the Sites page runs without Chromium's sandbox there: prefer the Flatpak.
Linux, with Flatpak	Sioul-0.0.3.flatpak	flatpak install --user Sioul-0.0.3.flatpak (the KDE runtime and Qt WebEngine come from Flathub).
Android 9 and later, 64-bit phones	Sioul-0.0.3-android-arm64.apk	Download it on the phone and open it; when Android asks, allow your browser or file manager to install apps. Signed with Sioul's key: the next version installs over it, your data kept.

The command line, sioul, comes with each computer's package (sioul mcp connects an AI agent: see the guide).

Sioul 0.0.2

New since 0.0.1

• Android: an APK for 64-bit phones, Android 9 and later. Doses reminded by Android's alarms, a card on the home screen, Sioul in the share sheet, the sharing with your other devices, do-not-disturb on every device.
• Who may reach you, and when: five states (strangers, blocked, and safe, neutral, restricted for the people you know) and a grid of who may reach you at which time of day, for mail, calls and messages.
• On Android, new and not yet tried widely: calls screened (the others go to your voicemail; emergency numbers always ring), and other apps' notifications held until their time.
• The day as it is lived: five times of day (work, admin, leisure, meals, sleep); meals, rest and sleep set first, the work planned around them; Free time and Pause; plans weighed by what things cost and give back; the work day and the day closed at any hour, with how it felt.
• Health: doses as records your devices share, and never "not taken" when Sioul cannot know.
• Sharing: part by part, notes and papers sealed file by file; the shared folder read straight from Nextcloud when the sync app is late, or kept in step by Sioul itself.
• Mail: unsubscribe in one click; codes sent with bulk headers still reach the Porch.
• On a computer: the status line is the title bar; an icon in the system tray; F11 for full screen.
• Notes: Nextcloud Notes' .txt files read and written as Markdown.

The Windows installer was built again from 08c7d97, which differs from v0.0.2 only in its installer script: the first one carried the previous version number.
