Run with any Python you have installed. The launcher bootstraps uv and uses it to fetch a clean Python 3.11 runtime + venv, then installs the right PyTorch build for your GPU. Nothing about your system Python is touched.

965a3d97c6 Works on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

First run takes a few minutes (uv install + Python 3.11 download + torch + dependencies). Subsequent runs start instantly.

Force a specific backend

Auto-detect picks one of cuda (NVIDIA), rocm (AMD on Linux), directml (AMD/Intel on Windows), mps (Apple Silicon), or cpu. To override:

python launcher.py --backend cuda     # force CUDA wheel
python launcher.py --backend rocm     # AMD on Linux (ROCm)
python launcher.py --backend directml # AMD/Intel on Windows
python launcher.py --backend mps      # Apple Silicon (macOS)
python launcher.py --backend cpu      # CPU only
python launcher.py --reinstall        # wipe install marker, re-detect, reinstall torch

--vendor {nvidia,amd,intel,cpu} is available too if you need to pair (e.g. --backend directml --vendor intel). Override is persisted in config.local.json and survives relaunches until you pass --backend again or --reinstall.

What the launcher does

Installs uv to .tools/ if not present.
Creates venv/ with Python 3.11 (uv downloads the interpreter on demand). <<<<<<< HEAD

Reset

Delete venv/ and .tools/ to force a clean reinstall.

CSAM detection on all outputs (NudeNet age classifier + hash check). All other content allowed: NSFW, gore, violence.

Status

<<<<<<< HEAD Windows + Linux + macOS. AMD on Linux uses ROCm; AMD/Intel on Windows use DirectML; Apple Silicon uses MPS. Intel Macs run on CPU only (no GPU acceleration path).

Windows only. Linux support planned.
