v2.0.13

HomeGenie 🧞 2.0.13

This release introduces significant enhancements to the AI chat engine, improved stability for automation programs, and a complete modernization of the dynamic compilation engine.

🤖 AI & Chat Enhancements

• Import/Export Chat: Added the ability to export and import chat history from files, making backups and data sharing seamless.
• Message Deletion: Users can now remove individual messages from the chat history.
• Gemini Widget Genie Prompt Update: Major overhaul of the system prompt for more accurate code generation, including explicit API references for zuix.js and HomeGenie and improved safety constraints.

🛡️ System & Stability

• Safety Watchdog: Introduced a protection mechanism for automation programs to prevent infinite restart loops in case of critical crashes.
• Philips Hue Fix: Resolved a deserialization glitch in the Philips Hue plugin by enforcing InvariantCulture in API parameters (fixes communication issues in specific locales).
• Roslyn Compiler Overhaul: Massive refactoring of the dynamic compilation engine. The system now utilizes dynamic assembly resolution, eliminating hardcoded paths and ensuring total cross-platform compatibility.

📦 Build & Deployment Improvements

• NuGet Cleanup: Streamlined the project file by removing redundant dependencies and resolving build warnings (NU1510). The application is now leaner and fully aligned with modern .NET standards.
• New Optimized Startup Scripts: Release bundles now include dedicated startup scripts for every platform:
  • start.sh (Linux)
  • start.bat (Windows)
  • start.command (macOS)
    These scripts automatically handle execution permissions and server restart logic based on exit codes.

🛠 Technical Notes

• The transition to modern .NET is now complete for Roslyn metadata loading, making the system future-proof and more robust.
