Mimir v0.2.0

Console chat history, a sturdier floating card, and a cleaner release build.

New

  • Persistent chat history — threads saved locally under app data; browse and resume from the Chats tab in Console or the clock icon on the floating card
  • Hotkey behavior setting — choose whether Ctrl+Shift+E opens a new chat or your latest thread (Console → System)
  • Card lock — double-click the header to pin the card on top; it won’t auto-hide on blur while locked
  • Fullscreen expand — expand the chat card to fill the current monitor
  • In-card history menu — quick switch between recent threads without opening Console

Improved

  • Window lifecycle — closing the card hides it instead of destroying it, so the hotkey keeps working reliably
  • Hotkey debounce — rapid hotkey presses no longer spawn overlapping capture runs
  • Console window — recreated on demand if closed; behaves like a proper config hub
  • Capture errors — failures surface in the card instead of silently opening an empty chat
  • Shared chat UI — Console and floating card use the same ChatPanel component

Fixes

  • Production capture sidecar — rebuild with capture.spec so overlay + text capture bundle correctly (see README)
  • Context banner — long captured text no longer clips awkwardly

Developer / packaging

  • Sidecar binaries removed from git; build via pyinstaller capture.spec + pyinstaller chat.specstage_binaries.py
  • chat.rs renamed to stream.rs (sidecar streaming command)

Upgrade

  1. Download and run the installer below (or build from source on v0.2.0)
  2. Your API key and settings carry over via Tauri Store
  3. Chat history starts fresh on first launch — new threads persist from here

Requirements

  • Windows 10/11
  • Gemini API key (set in Console → API Keys)

Full changelog: v0.1.0...v0.2.0

Paste that into the GitHub Release body and attach your NSIS installer as the asset.
