LineLoom v1.2.0 — GitHub Stable Release Notes
Channel: Stable GitHub release (not pre-release).
Publisher: SanskarCodes · Extension ID: SanskarCodes.lineloom ·
License: MIT · Minimum VS Code: 1.96
v1.2.0 is distributed as a stable-channel VSIX through GitHub Releases,
not as a pre-release build. The earlier
GitHub v1.1.1 pre-release
and v1.0.0 stable
are preserved. The GitHub release pipeline re-runs all automated checks,
verifies the VSIX is not marked pre-release, smoke-installs it and attaches
both the package and its SHA-256 checksum.
Manual QA not yet verified: Real-model Ollama completion quality and
CPU/GPU latency, physical Windows/macOS/Linux editor acceptance, hands-on
accessibility and privacy testing, and upgrades from earlier installed
versions have not been demonstrated. This release is owner-authorized for
GitHub distribution with those limitations disclosed, not represented as
passed. Those tests remain tracked in
issue #21.
Included capabilities
- Native LineLoom Activity Bar sidebar with completion, default/overridden
models, enabled languages, active-editor context, privacy and connection status. - Additional privacy-preserving in-memory completion engine status and counters:
requests, suggestions, cancellations, cache hits, continuation reuse, empty
results and failures. Average measured latency is shown only after the user
enables performance diagnostics and a successful sample exists. - Privacy-safe, categorical error messages for unavailable Ollama servers, missing models, timeouts, unauthorized requests and malformed/oversized responses, without exposing raw server error content.
- Model selection rejects duplicate, malformed, control-character-bearing and oversized model names returned from an untrusted Ollama endpoint; display is bounded to 512 entries. It also discards obsolete discovery results after endpoint/approval changes.
- Native inline suggestions via a configured Ollama model with manual/automatic
triggering, multiline support, response filtering, cancellation and caching. - Nine language IDs: Python, JavaScript (+JSX), TypeScript (+TSX), Rust, Kotlin,
Go, Java, C, C++. The last four remain experimental. C# and Dart are
not implemented and are not advertised as supported in v1.2.0. - Workspace-trust restriction, path and ignore exclusions, blocked unapproved
remote HTTPS inference, file-only document schemes and opt-in explicit remote
approval. No built-in telemetry, remote account or cross-file indexing.
Packaging and installation
Install from this GitHub release:
- Download
LineLoom-1.2.0.vsixandLineLoom-1.2.0.sha256from this release's assets. - Verify SHA-256 locally.
- Open VS Code → Extensions → … → Install from VSIX…, not Visual Studio's
separate VSIX Installer. Or usecode --install-extension LineLoom-1.2.0.vsix. - Install Ollama and the selected coding model yourself. LineLoom never
automatically installs models or starts sending source to remote servers.
Verification and known QA limitations
Automated evidence
The v1.2.0 pipeline checks cross-OS GitHub CI, typecheck, lint, unit tests,
static website verification, bundled extension build, mocked Ollama integration,
dependency audit, packaged VSIX identity and absence of VS Code pre-release
metadata, checksum generation, and isolated VS Code CLI installation.
Automated CI outcome: PASS. Windows/macOS/Linux build/test checks,
Linux mocked Ollama extension-host integration, and the stable-channel
VSIX archive/integrity/install smoke checks passed in
main-branch CI run #39366265411.
The dependency security audit also passed. The run generated and verified a
lineloom-v1.2.0-stable-candidate artifact. The separate GitHub release workflow
rebuilds and verifies the final stable VSIX before attaching public release assets.
No real-model performance measurements or hands-on acceptance can be inferred
from these checks.
Manual and real-model acceptance
Status: NOT TESTED / NO EVIDENCE PROVIDED for real Ollama quality and
CPU/GPU latency, genuine completion acceptance, interactive keyboard and
screen-reader/high-contrast sidebar testing, Windows/macOS/Linux physical editor
sessions, protected-file and remote approval tests with actual settings, and
upgrades from v1.0.0 stable and v1.1.1 preview.
Do not infer these passed from CI. Issue #21
tracks the mandatory release gates and
manual QA matrix records exact scenarios.
Distribution
This version is published to GitHub as a stable-channel release by explicit
owner request, with missing hands-on QA disclosed above. The
guarded GitHub release workflow
rechecks CI, the package, checksum, isolated installation and duplicate tag
protection. GitHub publication is separate from publishing to both external
registries.
Both listings must be independently updated and verified by the publisher.
An .exe is neither necessary nor appropriate for this cross-platform VS Code
extension: the installable executable extension artifact is a .vsix.
