+## 2.1.0 — GA — 2026-10-15
+
+Fixes and a newer MLX runtime; no API change (the public surface is identical to 2.0.0's).
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **An app embedding `LocalLMLabSDKInference` was rejected by App Store Connect** (error 90277: not a
+  valid bundle identifier). The framework's bundle ID was `mlx-swift_Cmlx`, and bundle IDs can't contain
+  underscores. It is now `lab.locallm.sdk.inference`, like Core's `lab.locallm.sdk.core`. MLX still finds
+  its Metal library: it loads `Resources/default.metallib` next to the framework's own binary, in a
+  `swift build` executable and in an app Xcode embeds it in alike. An app that copied
+  `mlx-swift_Cmlx.bundle` into its own Resources to work around this can stop doing so.
+- **Downloading a model whose Hugging Face repo has a subfolder failed** within seconds with
+  "Could not fetch metadata for 'optiq'": the downloader treated the folder itself as a file. This hit
+  every mlx-community OptiQ conversion (e.g. `gemma-4-12B-it-OptiQ-4bit`). Folders are now skipped and
+  the files inside them are downloaded, so the snapshot matches the repo.
+- **More MLX models can use tools.** Before each render, the SDK now fits the conversation to what
+  the model's chat template can actually show. It decides from the template and the vocabulary, not
+  from the model's name.
+  - **GLM-4-0414** (`GLM-4-9B-0414`, `GLM-4-32B-0414`) never saw a tool's result. Its template shows
+    results only under the `observation` role. The model kept repeating the same call (`echo` 3–4
+    times, `hub_repo_details` 4–5 times) and then answered without the result. Results now reach it,
+    and it answers from them.
+  - **Llama 3.1** failed a turn that made more than one tool call, with `Jinja.TemplateException`.
+    Its template allows only one call per assistant message. Such a turn is now replayed one call at a
+    time, each followed by its result. Llama 3.2 had the same problem.
+  - **Mistral-Small-3.2-24B-Instruct-2506** (mlx-community 4-bit and 8-bit) never called a tool. Its
+    conversions ship no chat template that renders tools, so when tools are requested the SDK now
+    uses a built-in one in Mistral's own format. The 4-bit passes all four of our tool tests; the
+    8-bit passes three and partly answers the fourth.
+  - When a model ships two chat templates and tools are requested, the one that renders tools is
+    used. Before, `chat_template.jinja` always won, even when only `tokenizer_config.json`'s template
+    supported tools.
+- **Adding a model could hang in its capability check.** `MLXModelProvider.capabilityProbe` now caps
+  each check's output length and stops any check that runs over 3 minutes. A check that times out is
+  listed in the report's `notes` and doesn't set `blocked`, so the model still gets added. Before,
+  adding `Mistral-Small-3.2-24B-Instruct-2506-8bit` was still generating after 30 minutes.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **`LocalLMLabSDKInference`'s MLX runtime moves to current `mlx-swift-lm`.** The pin goes from
+  `45693f6` (2026-07-27) to `30d755c`: upstream `8ec6a2c` (2026-10-15) plus one fix of ours, below.
+  `mlx-swift` goes from 0.31.6 to 0.32.3. It's still served from our mirror fork,
+  `ancientcomputing/mlx-swift-lm`. The update fixes several tool-call problems:
+  - **Gemma 4** keeps array and object arguments intact. Before, a call such as `hub_repo_details`
+    with a `repo_ids` list reached the tool garbled with `<|"|>` tokens.
+  - **gpt-oss** tool calls work. The runtime now parses OpenAI's Harmony format; before, the call
+    came back as raw text.
+  - **Muse Glimmer** (`muse_glimmer`, with its ATEM tool-call format) loads and calls tools. Checked
+    with `mlx-community/Muse-Glimmer-30B-4bit`.
+  - **Older Mistral checkpoints** (`model_type` `mistral`) now get Mistral's tool-call parser, chosen
+    from their chat template. Mistral 7B v0.3 still can't call tools: it writes the older
+    `[TOOL_CALLS] [{…}]` list form, and the parser rejects it.
+  - **Qwen3 calls that open a `<think>` block run.** Qwen3 sometimes opens `<think>` and goes straight
+    to the call without closing the block. Upstream treats everything in a reasoning block as inert,
+    so the call came back as text and never ran. A `<think>` block whose first content is a tool call
+    and that never closes now dispatches the call. A call after any reasoning text, or inside a closed
+    block, stays inert.
+- **A malformed tool call now fails the turn instead of showing up as text.** This covers an
+  unparseable payload, a call to a tool the session doesn't declare, and arguments that break the
+  tool's schema. The error is `LocalLMLabError.generation(underlying:)`, and its message names the reason (for
+  example `malformed_syntax`). The raw model output is never included. Before, the raw call markup came back as the model's answer, and nothing ran.
+  Generation finishes before the error is thrown, so nothing keeps running on the GPU after the turn
+  fails (a command-line tool that exited on the error could otherwise crash).

+### 10e. Shipping the model layer through App Store Connect
+
+What uploading LocalLM Lab and JevDK to App Store Connect turned up. None of it needed an SDK API
+change.
+
+**Embedding `LocalLMLabSDKInference` (local MLX models).** Use SDK 2.1 or later. In 2.0 the
+framework's bundle ID was `mlx-swift_Cmlx`, and App Store Connect rejects an app containing a bundle
+ID with an underscore (error 90277: not a valid bundle identifier). Since 2.1 it is
+`lab.locallm.sdk.inference`, and the xcframework embeds as is: no renaming, and no copying
+`mlx-swift_Cmlx.bundle` into your app's Resources. If you did that for 2.0, remove it when you
+upgrade: the copy and the framework's own copy share the bundle ID `mlx-swift.Cmlx.resources`, and a
+duplicate bundle ID can fail validation too (90685). MLX loads its Metal library from the framework's
+own `Versions/A/Resources/default.metallib`, so don't strip the framework's Resources. Before an
+upload, check that every bundle ID in the app is only letters, digits, hyphens and dots:
+
+```bash
+find "MyApp.app" -name Info.plist -exec /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c 'Print :CFBundleIdentifier' {} \; 2>/dev/null \
+  | grep -vE '^[A-Za-z0-9.-]+$' || echo "all bundle IDs valid"
+```
+
+**Private Cloud Compute.** `com.apple.developer.private-cloud-compute` is a managed capability:
+
+- Apple grants it to your developer account ("Access to models on Private Cloud Compute"). Then turn
+  it on for your App ID ([§10d](#10d-one-time-apple-developer-portal-setup-for-mas-signing)) and
+  regenerate your provisioning profiles.
+- Sign the entitlement only when the embedded profile grants it. An entitlement the profile doesn't
+  cover stops the app from launching.
+- Run PCC in the profile-covered executable: your app's main executable. A helper tool your app
+  launches has no App ID or profile of its own, so the entitlement can't work there, and a sandboxed
+  helper signed with `com.apple.security.inherit` may carry no other entitlement. Register
+  `PCCModelProvider` in the app's own `LocalLMLab`, not in a spawned process.
+- Check the entitlement before touching PCC. Without it FoundationModels traps on the first PCC call,
+  `availability(for:)` and `probe(timeout:)` included, so read the running process's own entitlement
+  first and register the provider only when it's there:
+
+```swift
+import Security
+
+let pccEntitled: Bool = {
+    guard let task = SecTaskCreateFromSelf(nil),
+          let value = SecTaskCopyValueForEntitlement(
+              task, "com.apple.developer.private-cloud-compute" as CFString, nil) else { return false }
+    return (value as? Bool) ?? true
+}()
+if pccEntitled { providers.append(PCCModelProvider()) }
+```
+
+LocalLM Lab's own Developer ID build (the DMG) doesn't carry the PCC entitlement, so it has no PCC;
+its Mac App Store build does. Whether a Developer ID provisioning profile can grant it hasn't been
+tested.
