Horde Studio v12.0.1
Horde Studio 12.0.1
Version 12.0.1 is a focused Embedded Tiny Brain and launcher reliability release. It fixes the browser-origin failure reported when Horde Studio was opened directly from index.html, repairs the official launcher’s Labs asset delivery, and adds regression coverage for both paths.
Embedded Tiny Brain
- Fixed the
Failed to construct 'Worker'error caused by attempting to start the module worker from afile://page with a null origin. - Worker URLs are now resolved explicitly against Horde Studio’s local HTTP application origin.
- Direct-file mode now explains the actual browser restriction and directs the user to the included Start Horde Studio launcher.
- Removed the misleading implication that this origin error was necessarily caused by WebGPU, WASM, browser storage or connectivity.
- Failed worker construction now cleans up its pending request immediately instead of leaving stale work behind.
Launcher and portable app
- Added every Horde Labs runtime file and the Embedded Tiny Brain worker to the localhost bridge’s static application manifest.
- Confirmed the official launcher serves the module worker from
http://127.0.0.1:43127with the correct JavaScript content type. - Updated application version metadata and cache-busting for 12.0.1.
- Rebuilt the portable package with the corrected launcher and Labs runtime.
Presentation
- Added the Horde Studio 12 launch poster to the README.
- Added an optimized Reddit-ready launch kit, derived from authentic application captures, with a hero poster, Living Worlds feature panel, Virtual Humans feature panel, Horde Labs feature panel and prepared launch copy.
Validation
- Labs cognition audit passes, including the direct-file recovery contract.
- MCP bridge audit passes with 15 checks, including coverage for all launcher-served Labs assets.
- JavaScript syntax and Python compilation checks pass.
- Browser verification confirmed the supported launcher path requests
labs-embedded-worker.jssuccessfully with HTTP 200. - Portable archive contents and launchers verified before tagging.
