Don't have the time right now but will play around with it next weekend for sure and will give you more feedback with logs when I see that I can reproduce it.

For now what I did was:

- Tested in Chrome/Safari/Firefox on Tahoe.

- Followed the quick start install instructions from github repo

- Everything worked

- Closed terminal

- Disconnected internet (Wifi off)

- Opened terminal

- Started server again (uv run server.py)

- Opened localhost in browser, it asked for camera/mic normally, granted access, saw camera live feed but "loading..." at bottom center of the site and AI did not listen/respond

- Reproduced this about 3 times with switching between wifi on/off before starting the server, always the same (working with internet; not working without)

- Figured it also works fine if I start the server with internet connected and disconnect it afterwards

If I run this without internet connection it says "loading..." at the bottom of the localhost site and won't work.

If I run this with internet connected it works flawlessly. Even if I disconnect my internet afterwards it still goes on working fine.

Why there has to be an internet connection established at the time I open the localhost site when all of this should be working purely on device?

Despite of this, I am really impressed that this actually works so fast with video input on my M4 Pro 48 GB.

I love linear but your advertised "offline mode" is not what I would expect it to be. If I open the Mac app when I'm offline I just get a blank window and have no access to any of my data or a window telling me "Unknown Error loading your workspace data". So I have to login once and keep the app open before I go offline. If I close the app while being offline and reopen it without internet connection I won't have access to any of my data. This is sadly killing the app for me. Is this expected behaviour? Just a "read only" mode of the last state I had when last logged in would be enough for me.

I would love to use the app for future projects but I can't because the advertised "offline mode" is not what I would expect it to be. If I open the Mac app when I'm offline I just get a blank window and have no access to any of my data. I assume this is because of a login failure and non of the data is accessible on device. So I have to login once and keep the app open before I go offline. If I close the app while being offline and reopen it without internet connection I won't have access to any of my data. This is sadly killing the app for me. Are there any plans to implement a real offline mode? Just a "read only" mode of the last state I had when last logged in would be enough for me.
