MFLUX v.0.9.2 Release Notes

🏗️ Build System Improvements

• Updated build backend: Migrated from setuptools to modern uv build backend for faster and more reliable package builds
• Enhanced artifact exclusion: Optimized distribution packages by excluding documentation assets (~27MB) and example images (~5MB) from published packages
• New make build command: Added development build command for testing distribution packages and validating sizes

🗃️ Offline Resilience

• Local-first behavior: Implemented cache-first downloading to improve resilience when HuggingFace Hub or network connectivity is unavailable
• Graceful fallback: System automatically uses cached model files when available, falling back to downloads only when necessary
• Improved reliability: Enhanced model loading reliability in environments with unstable internet connections

🔧 Developer Experience

• Release script improvements: Enhanced release automation with better error handling and duplicate version detection
• Build system fixes: Fixed minor typos in Makefile that could cause build issues
