v2.1.0
v2.1.0
The media download integration release. Hypagon Gateway can inspect, transcribe and download
media from pages the browser can already reach, without a second MCP server.
Added
- A
mediatool group inhb-browser:status,info,preview,transcript,download,
jobs,cancelandlist. media previewreturns title, duration, uploader, a transcript excerpt and the poster image
without downloading the media. The MCP layer returns the image as image content, so a vision
model can look at it before committing to a download.media transcriptreturns captions as plain text, paged withmax_chars/cursor. Language
defaults to English, then the first manual track, then the first automatic track. Captions are
cached for ten minutes per URL and language.- Download jobs: one at a time, FIFO, with percent/bytes/speed/ETA, a 50-job persisted history,
per-job temp directories, tree-kill on cancel, and a 2 GB/file cap. - Settings → Media: save-folder picker, automatic downloader updates with an interval
(default 60 minutes, clamped 15–1440), optional browser-session cookies, and ffmpeg mode. - ffmpeg in three modes:
auto(configured path → managed copy →PATH),path, and
managed(checksum-verified download, licence saved beside it, not shipped in the installer). - A self-updating downloader: pinned and SHA-256-verified in the build, hourly checks with jitter,
rollback on a failed--version,HB_MEDIA_AUTOUPDATE=0to disable. media statusreports capability flags, job counts, ffmpeg source/version and updater state.
Changed
- The downloader runs on Electron's own Node runtime (
ELECTRON_RUN_AS_NODE), so no Deno or system
Node is required for full YouTube support. - Downloads write to a per-job subfolder under the configured save folder, so cancelling one job
never touches another.
Compatibility
- Signed-in downloads are off by default. A site that needs a session returns
LOGIN_REQUIRED
and raises a desktop notification; a human enables the browser session in Settings, then retries.
Cookies are scoped to the requested host, written to a 0600 file, and deleted after the run.
