Released August 26, it brings MLX support for Qwen3.8 Flash Next, adds structured output to mlxrunner, and stops Metal GPU timeouts when loading models from slow storage (GitHub). Structured output on the MLX path is the practical unlock: Apple Silicon local inference can now be driven by JSON-schema-constrained tool calls the same way the llama.cpp path already could.
