BoardVault 2.1.0-rc.1 — Native macOS (Intel)

BoardVault 2.1.0-rc.1 — Native macOS

A native SwiftUI interface for downloading, organizing, and browsing your repair references.
This candidate targets Intel Macs running macOS 13 or later. Python and Telethon remain the
Telegram engine; the existing Qt app and CLI are retained.

Highlights

• A native sidebar with Download, Organize, Library, and Settings, system materials, accent
  color, and System/Dark/Light appearance.
• Prominent search with Any word, All words, or Exact phrase matching; filename/caption scope;
  PDF, boardview, archive, and firmware filters. M5 does not match M50, and board numbers
  remain whole terms. Joined names such as MacBookPro are recognized.
• Compact channel progress, speed and current-file ETA, persistent channel ordering, optional
  public subscriber counts, and an Activity log that starts collapsed.
• Guided Telegram login, API credentials in Keychain, Stop with bounded engine teardown, and
  clear errors when the sidecar fails. Login responses and credentials are never logged.
• Scan before organizing, review destinations, then organize or undo the last batch. Existing
  files and newer download records are preserved.
• Searchable product/brand library, Quick Look, Open, Reveal in Finder, Dock progress, keyboard
  shortcuts, and optional completion notifications.
• Ten optional channel additions, offered once and unchecked. See the
  channel source notes for coverage and evidence limits.

Install

Use BoardVault-2.1.0-rc.1-macos-x86_64.dmg, or unzip
BoardVault-2.1.0-rc.1-macos-x86_64.zip. Drag BoardVault.app into Applications. Retain the Qt
app in a different folder if using both; close other BoardVault clients before shared operations.

The bundle is ad-hoc signed for local integrity. It is not Developer ID signed or notarized.
If macOS blocks it, use the security approval flow described in the
native user guide. Do not disable Gatekeeper globally.

SHA256SUMS verifies the exact release assets. release.json records the build version,
architecture, source commit, signature type, and asset hashes.

Compatibility and limits

• Intel x86_64 only; universal and Apple silicon builds are deferred.
• Target: macOS 13+. Local execution has been demonstrated on Intel Tahoe; an actual Ventura
  runtime check is still pending. Deployment metadata is checked on every bundle.
• API credentials are required from my.telegram.org. No automatic credential/session migration
  runs at launch. An explicit legacy credential import is available in Settings.
• Text search cannot determine a processor from an undocumented board ID. Archive filters use
  the archive's extension; they do not inspect its contents.
• Public follower counts are approximate and may be unavailable. They are not quality ratings.
• Desktop fixture acceptance passed on Intel Tahoe, including compact rows, light/dark views,
  scan, organize, undo, and clean exit. Fresh login, Quick Look, and notifications still need
  manual acceptance. Automated checks use disposable fixtures and mock Telegram clients.
• Native downloads require hard-link support, available on the default APFS filesystem.

The native implementation merged in PR #40.
Python tests, Intel Swift tests, and the repository sanity check passed on GitHub. The uploaded
DMG and ZIP digests match the local manifest. This remains a prerelease with the unverified
platform checks listed above; the Qt 2.0.0 stable release is retained.

BoardVault v2.0.0

BoardVault — Apple schematic & boardview downloader. First release of the macOS desktop app (the project also remains a CLI).

Install (macOS)

1. Download BoardVault.dmg below, open it, and drag BoardVault to Applications.
2. The app is unsigned, so on first launch open it via right-click → Open → Open, or run:
   xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/BoardVault.app"
3. In the app: Settings → Account → paste your API ID/hash from my.telegram.org, then Download → Start.

Data is stored in ~/Library/Application Support/subkoks/BoardVault/; downloads go to ~/Downloads/BoardVault/ by default.

Highlights

• Native macOS app (PySide6): Download + Organize tabs, guided in-app Telegram login (phone/code/2FA), live per-channel progress.
• System / Dark / Light themes that follow macOS automatically.
• Add/remove channels in-app; configurable download & organized folders.
• Tabbed Settings incl. About & Help (instructions, links, version).
• Reversible file organization into an Apple/<product> + <brand> library.

See CHANGELOG.md for the full list and the User Guide.

Schematics are downloaded from public Telegram channels for repair & education — respect copyright. This build is unsigned/un-notarized.
