[1.0.2]

Added

  • Online status check for all active connections. The application now verifies connectivity for remote APIs, not just the local Ollama Docker container.
  • The chat response now includes a detailed breakdown of token usage, showing input (prompt), output (completion), and total tokens.
  • You can call chat window by calling tray-chat-ai --chat and connect it to systems shortcuts.
  • added token count by prompt..

Changed

  • Refactored the AIWorker to be completely independent of Docker, making it a universal handler for any OpenAI-compatible API.
  • The user interface now dynamically adapts based on the selected connection. Ollama-specific menu items (like "Ollama Management" and "Start/Stop Server") are now hidden when a non-Ollama connection is active.
  • Selecting a new active connection now triggers an immediate refresh of the connection status in the tray menu.

Tested

Tested on Linux mint 22.3 and Ubuntu.

Release Notes - TrayChat AI v1.0

We are excited to announce the release of TrayChat AI (formerly LLM Tray Manager). This major update brings a complete rebranding and improved stability.

🚀 What's New

  • Rebranding: The application has been renamed to TrayChat AI to better reflect its core functionality—chatting with AI models directly from your system tray.
  • Refactored Codebase: Internal modules and resources have been updated to tray_chat_ai for consistency.
  • UI Updates: Window titles, tooltips, and icons have been updated to match the new brand identity.

✨ Key Features

  • System Tray Access: Manage your local Ollama instance (Start/Stop) and check status (CPU/GPU) at a glance.
  • Instant Chat: Open a lightweight chat interface directly from the tray.
  • Multi-Model Support: Send a single prompt to multiple selected models simultaneously to compare results.
  • Model Management: Pull new models and remove unused ones via a simple GUI.
  • Docker Integration: Seamlessly works with local Docker containers running Ollama.
