Karakeep Release Notes

0.33.2

This is a patch release for after 0.33.1. It contains the following fixes:

Bug fixes:

• Change default "use max completion tokens" token env variable to true when using the default OpenAI configuration now that we're using 5.6 luna and this flag is required there (#3007).
• We're migrating to a custom karakeep chrome container (based on https://github.com/chromedp/docker-headless-shell) now that the old alpine-chrome is no longer fetch-able (and has been long abandoned by the maintainer). Check the migration guide here. The old image will continue to work, but it's recommended that you migrate to the new one as it also upgrades chrome to 151 (compared to 124 in the old image). If you've been using browserless (e.g. on unraid), you're not impacted by this, and you don't need to migrate.
• Large singlefile archives (typically because of videos) used to fail metadata extraction as the parser used to OOM. We strip inline videos now to make the parsing succeed.
• Hardened the link to asset conversion mechanism in the crawler that used to result into silently broken assets. (#3002)
• Pinned nodejs to version 24.18.1 thanks to @eriktews (#2996) to overcome a bug in the latest node 24.19 version (check #2989 for details). The proxmox scripts also were pinned by @MickLesk. …

0.33.1

Welcome to the 0.33 release of Karakeep! The headline of this release is semantic search. Karakeep can now generate embeddings for your bookmarks, letting you search by meaning instead of exact keywords (and making auto-tagging noticeably more consistent along the way). The mobile app gets offline reading, so you can save articles to your device and read them on a plane, along with new layouts, sorting, and one-tap clipboard saving. Cookie and GDPR consents should be something of the past with this release (finally). Plus a big batch of crawler, security and performance fixes.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release: @esimkowitz, @joestump, @zerone0x, @ElectricTea, @optix2000, @thiswillbeyourgithub, @jcgoodwin86, @InventorB, @VrtxOmega, @pike00, @KayMi, @TanishValesha, @mahirhir, @moduvoice, @eviaaaaa, @archit-goyal, @CertStone, and everyone who shipped code, triaged bugs, or shared feedback.

Note: the changes mentioned here for the extension and mobile releases will need to go through the different store (apple, google, mozilla) reviews. So it might take a couple of days until all of them are released.
