1.0.417 Jan 2026Release notes
Open source →New features
- Asset usage analysis: Detect unused assets by scanning Dart code for references in lib/ and bin/
- Bundled cwebp binaries: Zero-setup WebP conversion with bundled cwebp 1.6.0 for all platforms (macos-arm64, macos-x64, linux-x64, linux-arm64, windows-x64)
- SVG optimization: Pure Dart SVG minification (~70% reduction) - removes comments, metadata, editor data, empty containers, hidden elements, shortens numbers
- PNG to WebP conversion: Automatic conversion for PNGs without alpha channel using native cwebp
- Configuration file support: Load settings from
asset_opt.yamlwith--initflag to create default config - Custom optimization presets: Define presets for thumbnails, backgrounds, icons, etc.
Improvements
- Added
--presetflag to use optimization presets from config file - Batch concurrency: Asset analysis and usage scanning now process files in parallel batches of 8 for faster analysis on large projects
- Versioned cache paths: Native binaries now cache to version-specific directories to prevent conflicts on upgrades
- Runtime tool validation: Native tools are validated by executing
--versionbefore use, catching "exists but not executable" issues - Config error reporting: Invalid config files now show warning messages instead of silently using defaults
- Safe config init:
--initno longer overwrites existing config files - Analysis now gracefully handles corrupt/unreadable images instead of aborting
- Fixed directory tree display on Windows (use platform-aware path handling)
- Improved system tool discovery on Windows (proper line ending handling)
- Native binary validation before execution (size check on cached files)
Bug fixes
- Fixed CLI crash when invalid arguments passed
- Fixed NaN% display when 0 files optimized
- Fixed directory structure showing full absolute paths instead of project-relative
- Fixed NativeOptimizer initialization order (set initialized after successful init)
- Fixed SVG optimization path (check extension before raster decode)
- Fixed WebP optimization attempting to re-encode already-WebP files
- Fixed progress reporting division by zero with empty asset list
- Fixed bundled binary discovery for globally activated packages (use Isolate.resolvePackageUri)
- Fixed cache directory on Windows (use LOCALAPPDATA)
- Fixed report command creating directories instead of files

1.0.317 Jan 2026Release notes
Open source →- Updated Dart SDK constraint to ^3.10.0
- Updated lints to ^6.0.0
- Updated dependencies (image 4.7.2, args 2.7.0, yaml 3.1.3)
- Fixed lint warnings for unused variables and string interpolation
Cross-platform improvements
- Fixed Windows crash (issue #1): RangeError in directory stats due to hardcoded
/separators - Added ANSI color support detection (graceful fallback on Windows)
- Added
--no-colorflag for CI/redirected output - Fixed path separators to use
path.join()andpath.dirname()throughout - Moved cache to
.dart_tool/asset_opt/cache.json - Normalized file paths in cache for consistent cross-platform behavior

Testing
- Added 120 comprehensive tests covering all services, commands, and models
