Sioul 0.0.6

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-0.0.6-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-0.0.6-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-0.0.6-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-0.0.6.flatpak	flatpak install --user Sioul-0.0.6.flatpak (the KDE runtime and Qt WebEngine come from Flathub).
Android 9 and later, 64-bit phones	Sioul-0.0.6-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).

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.
