Lemonade – v9.3.4

🚨 Lemonade v9.3.4 just dropped! 🍋

This update brings a subtle but mighty improvement for hardware-savvy folks:

✅ XDNA2 NPU detection is now PCI-based — no more relying on flaky CPU name regex!

🔧 Switched to PCI device ID matching (PR #1154), making detection way more reliable — especially on custom, embedded, or non-standard systems.

💡 Why it matters:

• Fewer false negatives/positives when detecting XDNA2 hardware
• Better support for future Intel AI accelerators (like those in Lunar Lake or beyond)
• Cleaner, more maintainable code under the hood

Perfect for devs testing on niche hardware or prepping for next-gen NPU-powered LLM inference. 🚀

ComfyUI – v0.14.2: fix: use glob matching for Gemini image MIME types (#12511)

🚨 ComfyUI v0.14.2 is out — and it’s fixing a sneaky Gemini image bug! 🚨

This patch resolves a critical issue where Gemini API responses in `image/jpeg` format were silently discarded, resulting in black (all-zero) images instead of the expected output. 😬

✅ What’s Fixed & Improved:

• 🌐 Glob-style MIME matching added via `_mime_matches()` helper (using `fnmatch`)
• 🔄 `get_image_from_response()` now accepts any image format (`”image/*”`), not just `image/png`
• 📦 Supports both `image/png` and `image/jpeg`, plus future image types — no more silent failures!

💡 Why you’ll care: If your workflow leans on Gemini for image generation or processing (e.g., multimodal prompts), this update ensures reliable, non-deterministic JPEG outputs — no more black squares!

Lemonade – v9.3.3

🚨 Lemonade v9.3.3 is live! 🍋

This patch drops just one critical fix — but it’s a big one for server users:

🔧 Fixed `lemonade-server` status bug

No more misleading or broken status reports — the server’s health and readiness checks should now behave as expected. 🛠️

Tagged on Feb 18 at 02:41 UTC by `jeremyfower`, this is a lean, targeted update — perfect for those who like their LLMs fast and reliable.

If you’re self-hosting with `lemonade-server`, definitely pull this in! 🚀

Want the nitty-gritty on what the bug was? Just say the word — I’ll dig into the commits. 😎

Ollama – v0.16.3-rc1

🚀 Ollama v0.16.3-rc1 is here!

A small but slick release candidate just dropped — and it’s all about polishing the dev experience, especially for editor integrations. Here’s what’s new:

🔹 TUI defaults to single-select mode

→ When using Ollama with editors like VS Code or Neovim (via `ollama run`), the terminal UI now automatically switches to single-select instead of multi-select.

→ Why? Less accidental model swaps, cleaner workflows — especially handy when scripting or debugging.

🔍 No flashy new models or API changes this time, but this tweak makes daily use smoother and more predictable. Since it’s an `rc1`, expect final polish before the stable `v0.16.3` lands.

📦 Binaries for macOS & Linux are loading (check the releases page soon!).

🛠️ Pro tip: If you live in your terminal or use LLMs inline in your editor — this one’s for you.

Curious to test it? Grab the RC and let us know how it feels! 🧪✨

Tater – Tater v57

🚨 Tater v57 — Cerberus Complete is LIVE! 🚨

The AI assistant that talks to any OpenAI-compatible LLM just got a massive brain upgrade — and it’s ready to work smarter, not harder. 🧠⚡

🔥 Meet Cerberus — the 3-Headed Brain**

Tater now runs on a true multi-agent architecture:

🧠 Planner → figures out what needs doing

🛠️ Doer → executes the plan with precision

🔍 Checker → reviews, refines, and validates before sending anything off

✅ Why You’ll Love This:

• 🎯 No more chaotic tool spam — Cerberus picks tools intentionally, not randomly
• 🛡️ Self-recovery when things go sideways (no more stuck loops!)
• 🧹 Cleaner, leaner prompts — perfect for local models & low-resource setups
• 📦 Plugins (vision, weather, HA control, etc.) now integrate consistently across all platforms
• ⏱️ Scheduled & long-running tasks? Way more reliable — no accidental re-scheduling

🗑️ Cleanup & Stability:

• Agent Lab authoring removed (to keep the core tight & fast), but `/agent_lab` still lives as a working dir for logs, downloads, and docs.

This isn’t just an update — it’s the stable foundation for everything coming next: learning, refinement, long-horizon reasoning… the future is cerberus-powered. 🐉

Ollama – v0.16.3-rc0

🚨 Ollama v0.16.3-rc0 is here! 🚨

Big news for Apple Silicon users: Qwen3 model support has landed in `mlxrunner`! 🍏⚡

✅ Qwen3 models now run natively on M1/M2/M3 Macs via Ollama’s MLX backend — no CUDA, no hassle.

🧠 Alibaba’s latest Qwen3 brings stronger multilingual skills and sharper reasoning, making it a serious contender for local LLM workloads.

That’s the headline — this RC is light on changes but heavy on potential 🎯

Stable drop’s coming soon… in the meantime, go test those Qwen3 models! 🧪✨
