AidaIDE 1.0.0-rc15 — Release Notes

Superseded — 1.0.0-rc19 is the current shipping build.

SupersededSeptember 3, 2026Windows x64 Historical notes for this candidate. The signed installer the in-app updater installs today is 1.0.0-rc19.

This is not the live build. /latest.json serves 1.0.0-rc19 (released 2026-09-28). 1.0.0-rc19 is the current shipping build. Feature notes on this page still describe the 1.0 line. A separate 3D world plugin is coming to Pro and Teams Pro; it is not in the current build and is not for sale on that page. The product feature set here is the 1.0.0-rc11 line — Hardware Lab, local/remote Ollama, Rogue Device Hunt, and the free-forever SSH/SFTP workspace — plus later candidate hardening that shipped with the rc15 installer.

What's in the 1.0 line

rc15 documented the 1.0 feature batch from rc11. Those notes still apply on the current build, 1.0.0-rc19:

Hardware Lab — virtual HIL (timeline scenarios, assertions, pass/fail), Run on Device over SSH, Record, Bench (2D A–E), 33-board library. Definition: What is Hardware Lab?. Lab ships with the free IDE; AI Scenario/Fix need Pro AI.
Local and remote LLMs — Ollama on your own hardware, including over SSH.
Rogue Device Hunt — ARP + switch MAC join down to the physical port.
Free-forever core — editor, file browser, terminal, SSH engine, vault, fleet, and OTA. Pro unlocks the AI suite.

The SSH + SFTP workspace is free forever — create a free account to download. No license key. Pro is optional.
