Fix: keep text + vision models loaded together
Ollama defaults to loading one model at a time. That meant qwen3:8b (chat) and qwen3-vl:4b (vision) kept unloading each other — noticeable lag when capture and chat ran on the same machine.
This release:
- Setup wizard sets
OLLAMA_MAX_LOADED_MODELS=2andOLLAMA_NUM_PARALLEL=1(persisted via Windows user env) - Restarts Ollama during setup so the setting applies immediately
- Preflight on every launch ensures the same config for existing installs
- Warms both

Existing v1.0.0 users: install over the previous version, or just launch — preflight will apply the Ollama setting and restart the service once.

What's in this release
This is the first packaged release of Clippy Vision. Everything runs on your machine — no API keys, no subscriptions, no data leaving your device.
Installer features:
- Built-in setup wizard that installs Python, Ollama, and all required AI models automatically
- No terminal required — works for any Windows user
- Preflight health checks on every launch; redirects to setup wizard if any dependency is missing
Core features:
- Passive screen awareness — captures active windows, clipboard, typing patterns, and screenshots in the background
- Three-tier event classification (rule-based → feature-based → LLM fallback)
- Vision OCR and activity inference via
qwen3-vl:4b - Hierarchical memory: events → session summaries → distilled long-term facts
- Fine-tuned MiniLM query router for fast context prefetch before the LLM is called
- ReAct agent with SQL generation, memory recall, and fact saving
- Privacy-first: Clippy Vision's own window is blacked out in every screenshot before the AI sees it
- Per-app redaction rules (WhatsApp, Telegram, incognito windows, etc.)
- Capture toggle from tray icon or in-app button, with desktop notification on change
