What's New

0.2.6 is a bug-fix patch addressing local-model tool integration, Mac GPU stability, and long-request timeouts, with no new features.

Improvements

  • Mac GPU stability and performance improved across M1, M2, and M5 hardware.
  • Further performance tuning for Qwen models on top of the 0.2.5 MoE and prompt-processing gains.
  • Long-running local model requests now tolerate extended generation and prompt processing without connection timeouts.

Bug Fixes

  • Codex now correctly sends tool results back to local models, accepting replayed reasoning items with null content or summary as empty.
  • OpenCode sessions no longer fail with an 'assistant content is required' error after a step that produced no output, across both Chat Completions and Anthropic APIs.
  • A headless `magnitude serve` that fails to start now reports the underlying error instead of crashing with EBADF.
  • Long requests to local models no longer fail with a 502 after roughly five minutes.
  • Windows engine crashes caused by invalid JSON in chat templates are fixed.

Upgrade Notes

This is a drop-in patch upgrade from 0.2.5 with no configuration or migration steps required. Restart any long-running `magnitude serve` processes to pick up the timeout and startup-error fixes. Teams running local models on M1/M2/M5 Macs or Windows should see the most benefit.
