1.7.1

This release fixes an issue where environment variables were not used when installing and running Invoke.

For example, env vars set in .zshrc on macOS to configure uv download mirrors weren't used. They will be seen now, as the Launcher uses the user shell env when installing.

Similarly, when running Invoke, the user's shell env is merged in, allowing you to configure Invoke by setting INVOKEAI_ env vars.
