AI Summary

This update introduces the Gemma 4 12B model, a new chat UI, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration alongside experimental Canvas/Artifacts features. It also includes significant hardware support improvements.

Key Highlights

  • Gemma 4 12B model support (runs on 8GB RAM)
  • New Chat UI consolidating Projects, Canvas, MCP, and Compare
  • MCP integration with built-in presets (Context7, Exa, Hugging Face)
  • Interactive Canvas for HTML outputs
  • Hardware support for CUDA 13.3 on Windows and ARM64

Breaking Changes

  • Users must reinstall Unsloth Studio using shell scripts instead of `unsloth studio update`
  • Windows prebuilt installs no longer block on early CUDA Toolkit checks

New Features

  • MCP integration
  • Projects workspace management
  • Canvas/Artifacts for interactive code
  • New UI with consolidated menus
  • GPU support updates (Blackwell, B300, ROCm)

Full Release Notes

Hey everyone, this update focuses mainly on MCP, Projects, Canvas and the new chat UI.
We've also made many improvements across Studio. Next week we'll have an even bigger update.
If Gemma 4 12B isn't working for you, please re-update Unsloth!

### To update Unsloth or install a new Unsloth Studio, you must use:
**macOS, Linux, WSL:**
```
curl -fsSL https://unsloth.ai/install.sh | sh
```
**Windows:**
```
irm https://unsloth.ai/install.ps1 | iex
```
> [!WARNING]
> **DO NOT USE `unsloth studio update` since packaging will not get the latest updates**

## Gemma 4 12B
Google releases [Gemma 4 12B](https://unsloth.ai/docs/models/gemma-4), a new model that runs locally on 8GB RAM. [GGUF](https://huggingface.co/unsloth/gemma-4-12b-it-GGUF) / [Guide](https://unsloth.ai/docs/models/gemma-4)
Gemma 4 12B Unified supports image, audio and 256K context. Run and train the model via Unsloth Studio.


## MCP
* **Give your model live tools instead of relying on memory** one click in the composer, no API keys for the built-ins
* Built-in presets:
  * **Context7**  current docs & code for thousands of libraries
  * **Exa**  live web search
  * **Hugging Face**  search models, datasets & papers
* Add your own remote (OAuth/headers) or local (stdio) servers, toggled per chat

## New Chat UI
* Projects, Canvas, `MCP`, and Compare tuck into one `+` menu
* Search and Code are now one click away

## Projects
* Keep related chats together in one workspace
* Create a project from the sidebar, then add new or existing chats to it

## Experimental Canvas / Artifacts
   * Opens generated HTML in a dedicated canvas panel inside Unsloth Studio
   * Supports interactive outputs, including browser based visualizations and CDN-loaded packages
   * Lets you switch between rendered preview and source code

## Install, Runtime & Hardware
* **CUDA / Windows**
  * CUDA 13.3 `llama.cpp` binaries now work on Windows (and other non-Linux) and fix the CUDA 13.2 gibberish-output bug while default still pins to CUDA 13.1 for now
  * On CUDA 13.2, 13.1 and below, Windows falls back to CUDA 12.4 and native 13.1 binaries coming soon
  * Windows prebuilt installs no longer block on the early `CUDA Toolkit` check
* **Linux / GPU**
  * Linux `llama.cpp` prebuilts now match your runtime's `cudart` major version
  * Prebuilt coverage for `Blackwell` (with a CUDA 13.0 driver fallback) and `B300` (sm_103)
  * `ARM64` Linux now source-builds on GPU hosts, with a CPU prebuilt fallback
  * `ROCm`: detected AMD `gfx` arch is forwarded to the prebuilt installer (with a `setup.sh` fallback)
* **macOS**
  * Fixed Apple Silicon installs that were resolving `torch` against x86_64

## Other Studio improvements
* Connected models now work in Compare mode
* Smoother streaming which now renders batched to one per animation frame
* Larger upload limits for training datasets and recipe
* Window size and maximized state persist across launches
* Chat search hides non-matching threads
* Model loading handles mid-refresh cancellation cleanly
* Cleaner rendering for generated image frames and Python tool code blocks
