on GitHub

0.12.0 - 2026-03-11

Features

• Models: add nvidia/... provider alias (uses NVIDIA_API_KEY + optional NVIDIA_BASE_URL) for NVIDIA OpenAI-compatible endpoints.

Fixes

• Transcription: add AssemblyAI as a first-class remote provider across direct media, podcast/RSS, and yt-dlp YouTube fallback; refactor remote fallback ordering, expand config/env support (ASSEMBLYAI_API_KEY, legacy apiKeys.assemblyai), and add AssemblyAI unit + live coverage (#126).
• X/Twitter: prefer xurl for tweet extraction when installed, fall back to bird, preserve long-form/article text plus media URLs, add live xurl extraction/media coverage, and replace the stale dead-bird install tip with a current X CLI recommendation (#70).
• Models: make daemon agent artifacts schemas Gemini-safe, improve Google empty-response handling with preview-to-stable fallback, and switch CLI/auto Gemini defaults away from brittle preview behavior (#82, #96).
• Agents: expand model auto-resolution errors with checked models, missing env/CLI setup, and daemon restart guidance (#107).
• Daemon: support multiple saved extension tokens, migrate legacy single-token configs, and accept any configured token for auth (#116).
• Chrome extension: harden side-panel slides so SSE keepalives no longer false-time out, seeded placeholders no longer block pending/cached slide runs, retries can start a fresh summarize+slides run, and reruns replace stale slide state.
• Chrome extension: refactor side-panel navigation/run attachment policy so late summary/slide runs no longer attach to the wrong page after tab or URL switches, and expand headless regression coverage for pending-run resume and slide-mode transitions.
• Chrome extension: default fresh installs to slide mode, keep passive tab navigation out of chat, and align slide cards with CLI --slides by preferring per-slide summary text over raw transcript/OCR fallback.
• Chrome extension tests: add stronger YouTube slide E2E coverage for loaded images, summary-backed slide text, and switching between videos mid-analysis without stale slide-summary bleed.
• Chrome extension: isolate slide-summary stream callbacks per run and harden Playwright settings hydration so late events no longer blank slide text when switching videos mid-analysis.
• Transcription: add Gemini audio/video transcription support across direct media, podcast/RSS, and yt-dlp YouTube fallback, including Files API uploads for larger media plus new Gemini live coverage (#89).
• npm packaging: publish CLI with pnpm publish so @steipete/summarize-core is version-pinned in published metadata (no workspace:* in registry package).
• Slides: detect WezTerm as an iTerm-compatible terminal for inline slide images in --slides mode. (#133) — thanks @doodaaatimmy-creator.
• CLI help: surface summarize refresh-free in summarize help output.
• CLI: report CLI provider timeouts explicitly, including the duration, command, and a --timeout hint instead of collapsing them into generic exec failures (#100, thanks @christophsturm).
• Daemon: restrict CORS responses to trusted extension and localhost origins, with regression coverage for allowed and denied Origin headers (#108, thanks @sebastiondev).
• Transcription: chunk oversized Groq Whisper uploads with ffmpeg in file mode instead of failing out on files above the 30MB limit (#134, thanks @WinnCook).
• Docs: tighten landing-page mobile layout so hero, cards, code blocks, and nav stay readable on narrow screens (#118, thanks @Acidias).
• Release: build macOS x64 Bun artifacts and add regression coverage for Homebrew formula rewrites during dual-arch releases (#122, thanks @androidshu).
• YouTube: tighten hostname validation across core, slides, and extension helpers so attacker-controlled lookalike hosts are no longer treated as YouTube URLs (#91, thanks @RinZ27).
• Config: honor zai.baseUrl config fallback for blank env values and keep Z.AI base URL overrides working outside the summary flow (#102, thanks @liuy).
• Chrome extension: tighten options and sidepanel UI spacing, copy actions, and advanced-controls layout for a cleaner panel experience (#86, thanks @morozRed).
• Slides: warn in summary mode when --slides dependencies are missing, and document required local installs for ffmpeg, yt-dlp, and optional tesseract.
• Docs: fix broken docs index links by setting an empty Jekyll baseurl (#113, thanks @Youpen-y).
• Models: preserve model id casing after the provider prefix so OpenAI-compatible proxies can route exact names correctly (#128, thanks @WinnCook).
• Cache: give extract entries with unavailable transcripts the same short retry TTL as negative transcript cache entries, so transient Apify failures can recover (#115, thanks @gluneau).
• Daemon: apply the saved env snapshot to process.env before daemon run starts so child tools inherit the right PATH and API/tool config under launchd/systemd (#99, thanks @heyalchang).
• Chrome automation: require sidepanel arming before debugger-backed native input can run in a tab, and auto-disarm after browser JS execution ends (#129, thanks @omnicoder9).
• Media setup: fix the local whisper.cpp install hint to use the current Homebrew formula name whisper-cpp (#92, thanks @zerone0x).
• CLI output: cap markdown render width on very wide terminals by default, with a --width override for manual control (#119, thanks @howardpen9).
• Slides: size inline slide images from terminal width instead of keeping them pinned to 32 columns, capped at 2x the previous width while preserving COLUMNS fallback behavior (#125, #135, thanks @WinnCook).
• Shell completions: add Fish shell completions for the current CLI flags and option values (#95, thanks @fbehrens).
• Bun fetch: only opt into compressed HTML/YouTube responses when running under Bun, and retry link-preview fetches with Accept-Encoding: identity after Bun decompression failures (#105, thanks @maciej).
• Daemon: support cli/... models in chat and agent endpoints, including CLI auto-fallback when no API-key transport is available (#109, thanks @jetm).
