VoxPilot v0.5.1: CI/CD Pipeline — Auto-Publish on Tag

Nate Archer — Sun, 15 Mar 2026 14:02:08 +0000

VoxPilot v0.5.1 is live!

This release adds a proper CI/CD pipeline using GitHub Actions. No more manual packaging and publishing — just tag and push.

What's new

VoxPilot now has two GitHub Actions workflows:

CI workflow (ci.yml) — runs on every push and PR to main:

TypeScript type checking (tsc --noEmit)
Unit test suite (46 tests via Vitest)
Extension packaging (vsce package)
Uploads the .vsix as a build artifact

Release workflow (release.yml) — triggered by version tags (v*):

Runs the full lint → test → build pipeline
Auto-publishes to Open VSX
Creates a GitHub Release with the .vsix attached

To ship a release now: git tag v0.5.1 && git push --tags. That's it.

Why this matters

Manual releases are error-prone. With CI/CD, every commit is validated and every tagged version is automatically published. Contributors can submit PRs knowing they'll be tested, and maintainers can release with a single command.

Download count

4,654 downloads and growing. Thanks to everyone using VoxPilot!

VoxPilot v0.5.0: Automated Test Suite — 46 Tests Across the Entire Engine

Nate Archer — Sat, 14 Mar 2026 14:05:03 +0000

VoxPilot v0.5.0 — Quality You Can Trust

Today's release is all about reliability. VoxPilot now ships with a comprehensive automated test suite covering the core modules that power your voice-to-code workflow.

What's New

46 unit tests across 5 test files using Vitest:

VAD (Voice Activity Detection) — calibration, speech detection, silence timeout, sensitivity levels, adaptive noise floor, reset behavior, edge cases
Voice Commands — all punctuation commands (period, comma, question mark, etc.), delete/undo that, multiple commands in one transcript, case insensitivity
Noise Gate — threshold gating, attack/release timing, reset, dynamic threshold updates, empty buffer handling
Transcriber — initialization, error handling for unloaded models, safe dispose
Engine & Extension — module export verification (activate, deactivate, VoxPilotEngine)

Every release now runs npm test before packaging. If tests fail, the release is blocked.

Why This Matters

VoxPilot processes real-time audio, runs VAD algorithms, applies voice commands as post-processing, and delivers transcripts to your IDE — all on-device. That's a lot of moving parts. Automated tests mean:

Regressions get caught before they ship
Contributors can refactor with confidence
Edge cases are documented as executable specs

By the Numbers

4,500+ downloads on Open VSX
46 tests, all passing
Zero cloud dependencies — everything runs locally

Try It

Install VoxPilot in Kiro or VS Code from Open VSX.
