📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Swaps smoke-test binaries (replace ace-qwen3 and dit-vae with ace-lm and ace-synth) in CI and release workflows, adds a ccache step for non-Windows runners, and adjusts packaging copy/install steps across Linux, macOS, and Windows to reflect the new binary set.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Smoke Test Updates .github/workflows/ci-build.yml, .github/workflows/release.yml	Replaced smoke-test invocations of ./build/ace-qwen3 --help and ./build/dit-vae --help with ./build/ace-lm --help and ./build/ace-synth --help; retained other smoke tests such as quantize.
Build Optimization .github/workflows/release.yml	Added a ccache setup step for non-Windows runners to enable build caching in Linux/macOS build path.
Linux Packaging .github/workflows/release.yml	Changed copy logic to include wildcard ace-* binaries (instead of explicit ace-qwen3/dit-vae), plus mp3-codec and relevant shared objects for distribution.
macOS Packaging .github/workflows/release.yml	Adjusted install_name_tool/rpath handling and packaging to iterate over ace-*, quantize, neural-codec, mp3-codec; copying also includes libacestep*.a and libggml*.dylib.
Windows Packaging .github/workflows/release.yml	Updated Windows distribution binary list to include ace-lm and ace-synth instead of ace-qwen3 and dit-vae; other binaries (ace-understand, quantize, neural-codec, mp3-codec) remain included.

Poem

🐰 In pipelines I nibble and hop,
Old names swapped — I never stop.
ace-qwen3 hops out, ace-lm hops in,
ace-synth joins the packaging bin.
Ccache hums, the artifacts grin. ✨

70-76: ⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

nproc is not available on macOS.

Line 76 uses $(nproc) which is a Linux-specific utility. On macOS, this command will fail. The CI workflow correctly uses $(sysctl -n hw.ncpu) for macOS (see line 36 of ci-build.yml).

🐛 Proposed fix

       - name: Configure & Build (Linux / macOS)
         if: runner.os == 'macOS'
         run: |
           mkdir build
           cd build
           cmake ..
-          cmake --build . --config Release -j "$(nproc)"
+          cmake --build . --config Release -j "$(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)"

glob "ace-ace-*" with "ace-*" so the cp -P command copies the actual ace
binaries (ace-*), quantize, neural-codec, mp3-codec, libacestep*.a and

"ace-ace-*" to use "ace-*" (the rest of the command remains unchanged).

127-132: Prefer explicit macOS binary list over ace-* wildcard for release determinism.

ace-* in both install_name_tool and cp is broader than needed and can accidentally include non-release matches, making packaging brittle.

♻️ Proposed hardening

           cd build
-          for bin in ace-* quantize neural-codec mp3-codec; do
+          bins=(ace-lm ace-synth ace-understand quantize neural-codec mp3-codec)
+          for bin in "${bins[@]}"; do
             install_name_tool -add_rpath `@executable_path` "$bin"
           done
-          cp -P ace-* quantize neural-codec mp3-codec libacestep*.a libggml*.dylib ../dist/
+          cp -P "${bins[@]}" libacestep*.a libggml*.dylib ../dist/

- Around line 140-143: The Windows packaging block (the $bins array and foreach
($b in $bins) Copy-Item "build\Release\$b.exe" dist\) is unreachable because the
workflow matrix only includes Linux and macOS runners; either add a Windows
entry to the job matrix so these steps run on a Windows runner, or remove/guard
this Windows-specific packaging code behind a condition (e.g., if: runner.os ==
'Windows') so it only executes when a Windows runner (matrix entry) is present.
