Export Setup Wizard Problems

@Christoph-Hart I'm using code llama - I only have 6GB VRAM so I'm rather limited.

if there are any wrong dependencies it should figure this out
Ah maybe it doesn't do that in test mode it just runs through the commands.
-
@David-Healey yeah a 6gb local model won‘t get you too far. I tried it with Opus 4.5 and it even fixed a compile error I introduced in the last commit…
-
@Christoph-Hart Yeah if I get into it I'll use a cloud model.
-
@David-Healey the free one from opencode should be fine too (Big Pickle).
-
@Christoph-Hart Aha I missed that one.

Well colour me impressed! It fixed the bug.
Edit: Actually maybe desaturate me, I'm not sure if it hasn't introduced another issue.... more checking required.
Edit 2: Na fix doesn't work.

@dannytaurus no joke. Just run Claude code / Opencode with this agent and tell it to install everything so you can use HISE. Let's embrace the future, rofl.
So I've been thinking and this doesn't make the process any simpler for a newcomer, it actually makes it more complicated and harder to solve when the AI screws up.
I have a much better solution. A simple bash/batch script. This is what I've been using for years for automated builds.
All a new user would need to do is run install_hise.sh. It could even detect an existing install and prompt to update instead.

@David-Healey We could also provide a "static" build script, but this still has a few advantages. It basically behaves like a build script but is able to interpret error messages and try other stuff while the build script just fails and we'll get a new forum topic where we need to explain how to extract a zip file.
For example the current version on windows tries to download IPP / Faust using a Powershell command, which somehow failed in my VM, no idea why, don't care. The Agent realized this and switched to another method (curl / wget), then validated the files after downloading.
Currently I'm fighting against some issues where the compilation of HISE chokes at the memory but I can't say whether this is an issue of my limited VM resources or something the agent does wrong.
But once the process goes through we can just tell the agent to create a bash script / bat file that performs all those steps, then everybody can choose whether to run the script or use the agent.

Sounds like my issues with compiling HISE on an 8GB MacBook Pro. Basically impossible.

I thought the point of this whole endeavour is to make it a single path for beginners.

@dannytaurus yup it's a single path, you can just decide whether you want a robot to hold your hands or not. There will be no one solution that suits everybody, some people have experience with AI agents, some have experience with command line scripts, some prefer manual installation of everything.

Something wrong there, I compile on a VM with less.

Sounds good. The script should provide a nice interface, ask if they want to upgrade or install, which branch they want to use, etc.
Given what you said about one method failing and another succeeding and not caring because the AI handled it, how can we trust that the script it produces is bullet proof on all systems... I think there will still be some manual work required.

Yep, definitely something wrong. Could be the way macOS handles RAM. Could have been something else on my system.
I bought a 32GB MacBook Air and it flies now, so I don't care what was causing it.

Was it an Apple silicon system? That might be the difference.

Yeah, it was an M1 MacBook Air. It was a really nice machine, and everything else worked fine. I could run large Logic projects, have loads of running apps, multiple Safari windows, etc.
It was just compiling HISE where it completely fell down.
