Natively-AI-assistant/natively-cluely-ai-assistant v2.4.0 on GitHub

Summary

Release 2.4.0 introduces an expansive 10-Minute Free Trial system, stunning premium UI redesigns for plan selection, and significantly improved screenshot and audio device handling.

What's New

10-Minute Free Trial System: Users can now fully audition Natively before purchasing, unlocking STT, AI processing, and web search quotas with seamless onboarding through a new countdown banner and promotional toaster UI.
Guided Permissions Setup: Added a premium full-glass card experience on launch to smoothly handle Apple TCC permission requests for Microphone and Screen Recording.
Premium Plan UI Redesign: Fully redesigned the plan selection and upgrade interfaces ("Apple/Tesla compact" look)—featuring glowing cards, hover effect physics, "Most Popular" and "Best Value" badging, and a clear BYOK path.
Max & Ultra Upgrade Highlights: Pro users now receive beautiful gold/amber-themed dynamic upgrade comparison cards outlining the benefits of Max and Ultra tiers.
Verbose Diagnostic Logging: Packaged apps now include advanced system logging capabilities—users can export natively_debug.log right to their documents via a new toast notification.

Improvements

Custom Provider Integration: Custom / cURL LLM provider configurations are now fully supported for meeting note generation, summarization, and follow-up suggestions—effectively sidestepping knowledge-mode interference.
Data Privacy & Cleanup: Trial users who downgrade or expire now have their local profile data, resumes, and SQLite cache securely auto-wiped to maintain rigorous privacy policies.
Advanced Audio Streaming: Upgraded the streaming session architecture to adapt to the new OpenAI Realtime Transcription API payload specifications.
Ad & Campaign Targeting Engine: Re-engineered the in-app promotional system to intelligently swap visuals and logic strictly according to a user's exact active subscription level (planDetails), replacing random cycles.
Global Rendering Shortcuts: Re-routed system-wide meeting screenshot calls (Cmd+H / Cmd+Shift+H) to leverage direct renderer interaction for rock-solid captures.

Fixes

Fixed a notorious background privacy issue where the system microphone would prematurely activate in the Settings page even without an active meeting.
Resolved race-condition failures preventing taken screenshots from appearing natively inside the active meeting message bar layout.
Fixed a bug where Profile Intelligence (such as resume analysis, company research, and negotiation hints) incorrectly blocked active Free Trial users.
Corrected UI quirks during Free Trial initial loading—resolving a bug where trial-started "flashes" occurred upon mounting, and fixing stuck usage counters.
Bypassed an invalid developer mode assertion preventing screenshot captures from resolving gracefully when app packaging scripts missed permissions.
Resolved macOS cross-compilation errors (clang_rt.osx missing) by preferring the system Command Line Tools resource directory.

Technical

Bound new ElectronAPI and IPC request handlers to securely coordinate: permission checks (permissions:check), audio tracking overrides, and local profile data annihilation (trial:wipe-profile-data).
Handled telemetry logic mapping LLM __trial__ headers out of the main desktop API streams, converting them successfully into isolated x-trial-token usage patterns.
Pushed major frontend dependency integrations for dynamic routing updates inside NativelyInterface.tsx and App.tsx state management trees.
