Unreleased

Added

  • (placeholder for next release)

0.1.0 — 2026-04-25

Initial public alpha release. Patent-pending compression methods (USPTO 64/049,511 + 64/049,517) underpinning the pre-compressed reference models on the Hugging Face Hub.

Added

  • uc list — list pre-compressed models from the official Hugging Face Hub collection
  • uc pull <model-id> — download a pre-compressed model artifact
  • uc info <path> — inspect compression metadata of a local artifact
  • uc bench <path> --tasks <list> — run downstream benchmarks via lm-eval-harness
  • uc demo — play a scripted demo session (no Hub access required)
  • uc version / uc --version / -V — print version
  • Apache-2.0 license for the CLI source code
  • GitHub Actions CI for Python 3.10–3.12 (lint, type-check, test, build, security scans)
  • PyPI Trusted Publishing on tag push

Notes

  • Self-compression (uc compress) is intentionally not yet shipped — it is gated on the patent-pending compression methods being formally protected. Target: v0.2 (Q3 2026). Design spec: uc compress spec.
  • Local inference server (uc serve) is on the v0.2 roadmap. Design spec: uc serve spec.
  • Pre-compressed model artifacts are licensed separately from the CLI itself. For licensing terms, contact legal@sipsalabs.com.
