Logicytics: Flag Promotions, Device Auto-Detection, and Core Cleanup - Version 3.5.1

Major Updates and Enhancements

Flag System & Model Handling Improvements

Automatic Device Detection:

• vulnscan.py:

  • Introduced automatic CPU/GPU detection when loading PyTorch models.
  • Implemented torch.load(..., map_location=...) to prevent CUDA-only crashes.
  • Ensures safe execution across systems lacking GPU acceleration.

Flag Updates and New Features:

• Flag Enhancements:

  • Promoted --performance-check flag from Beta to Stable.
  • Removed unstable memory usage reporting due to inconsistent values and external process interference.
  • Introduced new --usage flag for tracking user flag interaction history.

• Debug Mode Improvements:

  • Fixed crash when Git is missing by validating its existence before use.
  • Resolved false positives in --debug file diffing (ignored vs extra).
  • Synchronized debug file comparison logic with internal _dev.py behavior.
  • Extended Python 3.13 compatibility to prevent future errors.
  • Improved logging clarity and structure for traceable debugging.

Core Refactors & Codebase Simplification

File & Directory Fixes:

• Renamed previously buggy vulnscan folder to avoid automatic inclusion during zipping.
• Addressed crash caused by uninitialized logging directories—Logger now ensures correct creation.

Feature Removal:

• Removed the --backup flag entirely.

  • It introduced complexity and redundancy - Git handles all historical tracking better.
  • Refactored backup-related logic and removed dead code linked to the feature.

Planning & Maintenance Updates

• Promoted Match.generate_summary_and_graph() out of beta after patches and testing.
• Updated PLANS.md with roadmap changes and clarified deprecation of backup.
• Performed basic cleanup tied to removed features and older implementation quirks.

Base Change

• Implemented cross-platform model loading with automatic device detection in vulnscan.py.
• Promoted --performance-check and generate_summary_and_graph() from beta to stable.
• Introduced --usage flag for historical usage stats.
• Removed memory usage metrics and the --backup feature for clarity and stability.
• Refactored debug logic to align with dev tools and fix Git and Python edge cases.
• Fixed zipping errors and init directory issues for consistent startup.
