v0.0.6

• Removing a source now removes its indexed memory without deleting the original files.
• The running API now picks up chat, embedding, image, and provider changes made from the CLI.
• Updating models now unloads previous OpenMind models(from the model provider) before loading their replacements.
• Ask responses now format answers, links, and local sources as Markdown.
• Sessions have been added to the api: Chat now uses faster provider-backed sessions, keeps API sources separate, and lets CLI and API users enable model reasoning when needed while keeping it off by default.

v0.0.5

• Added openmind --version and clearer command descriptions.
• Added arrow-key setup menus, checkbox folder selection, and an OpenMind terminal banner.
• Fixed a bug with custom folder selection so standard folders are not selected automatically.
• Added a secure local API so anyone can easily build their own client app on top of OpenMind.
  • Apps can manage models, sources, and indexing, search local memory, stream answers, inspect results, and open indexed files.

v0.0.4

• Added image indexing through a local LM Studio vision model.
• Added generated image descriptions and optional image OCR text to local memory.
• Added searchable image metadata such as dimensions, format, EXIF, and safe image info fields.
• Kept raw image bytes out of LanceDB; OpenMind stores paths, metadata, text descriptions, OCR text, and embeddings.
• Improved setup folder selection so pasted paths work and duplicate sources are reported clearly.

v0.0.3

• Added automatic local OCR for scanned PDFs.
• Added clearer indexing output when a file is skipped or extraction fails.
• Added safer Ask behavior when a local model returns no visible answer text.
• Added openmind flush to reset indexed memory without uninstalling.
• Added openmind uninstall to remove OpenMind-owned local data.
• Added openmind models update to change saved LM Studio chat and embedding models.
• Added explicit already-indexed reporting for unchanged files during indexing.
• Improved duplicate source feedback when a folder was already added.
• Improved incremental indexing so unchanged files are skipped quickly.
• Changed default scanning to skip source code, JSON config, and low-level project files.
• Changed model loading to skip models that are already loaded in LM Studio.

• Added LM Studio as the default local AI provider.
• Added model commands for listing and loading LM Studio models.

• Added optional thinking/reasoning display with --show-thinking.
• Added developer log viewing with openmind dev logs.
• Added graceful LM Studio error messages instead of Python tracebacks.
• Added uv dependency management.
• Fixed editable install issues.
• Fixed background indexing startup, pause, stop, and progress display issues.

v0.0.1
