Velora 0.4.4 — reliable model setup and notarized install
Velora 0.4.4 gives first-run model setup an honest, reliable onboarding flow and installs normally through macOS Gatekeeper.
First-run setup
- The Try It field stays locked while the speech and writing models complete their one-time setup.
- Onboarding shows the current setup phase and download percentage.
- Setup progress remains correct across engine reconnects.
- Superseded pre-ready connections can no longer send duplicate ready frames or prevent setup completion.
- If the optional writing model cannot load, Velora falls back to raw dictation instead of trapping onboarding.
Distribution
- The app and DMG use Developer ID signing and hardened runtime.
- Apple notarization is stapled and verified before publication.
- Gatekeeper accepts both the disk image and bundled app as Notarized Developer ID.
Verified with 55 Swift self-checks and 199 Python tests.
