Latest Release

v2.3.2 (Latest Release)

Release Date: June 11, 2026

Additions

  • New Source tool (extension): build MNE EEG forward solutions and project TI fields onto the fsaverage template.
  • Preprocessing now automatically converts DWI DICOMs to BIDS NIfTI alongside T1w/T2w.

Fixes

  • FreeSurfer recon-all no longer falsely reports its output as already existing on a fresh project.

Fixes & Maintenance

Flex-search and Simulation Workflow
  • Flex-search simulation identity and UI naming — simulator-generated flex-search runs now keep a unique storage key while showing compact, readable run labels and hover metadata in the GUI, following the run-id/run-name split used by tools such as MLflow.
  • Flex-search valid skin region controls — flex-search now exposes skin_region_margin_mm, optional landmark guarding, GUI controls, and report imagery so users can inspect and tune the valid scalp placement region used by optimization.
Reports and Visualization
  • Report and visualization follow-ups — simulation reports use clearer missing-visualization states and simulations continue when optional montage visualization cannot be generated.
  • Analyzer discovery improvements — Analyzer refreshes simulation lists when shown and after simulation completion, with clearer messages when TI/mTI post-processing outputs are missing.
NIfTI Viewer
  • Electrode NIfTI overlays — the NIfTI Viewer can create and auto-load a single label-mask overlay showing saved electrode placements from documentation/config.json. Labels are channel-based, use the same color order as montage PNGs, and are saved next to montage images under TI/montage_imgs/ or mTI/montage_imgs/ depending on simulation mode.
GUI Reliability
  • GUI lifecycle reliability — preprocessing, simulation, flex-search, ex-search, Analyzer, and NIfTI Viewer tabs now refresh dependent outputs more consistently and avoid reporting success after failed subprocesses.
Preprocessing and QSI
  • DICOM preprocessing hardening — DICOM discovery now searches nested .dcm/.dicom files and supports basic compressed inputs (.zip, .tar, .tar.gz, .tgz) in the documented sourcedata/sub-{id}/{T1w,T2w}/dicom/ layout.
  • Preprocessing existing-output handling — the GUI now detects existing outputs before rerunning DICOM conversion, CHARM, FreeSurfer recon-all, QSIPrep, QSIRecon, or DTI extraction. Users can cancel, skip existing outputs, or explicitly replace them and rerun. The same policy is available to scripts through skip_existing_outputs and replace_existing_outputs.
  • QSI Docker preflight — QSIPrep and QSIRecon now validate Docker/DooD setup early, before starting long-running container work.
  • QSI containers updated — QSIPrep and QSIRecon now target PennLINC 26.0.0, with CLI compatibility handling for QSIPrep concat and QSIRecon --input-type qsiprep.
Telemetry and Release Operations
  • Telemetry error grouping — operation telemetry now emits a per-run run_id plus a stable, path-sanitized error_fingerprint, making recurring failures easier to group without sending tracebacks or local paths.
  • Telemetry-driven preflight checks — common user/environment problems are validated before telemetry-tracked work starts for simulation, flex-search, and empty preprocessing subject selections, reducing noisy error reports while preserving real exceptions.
  • Telemetry consent persistence — GUI telemetry consent is stored in the user-level config mount and should no longer reappear every launch once answered.
  • Launcher telemetry normalization — host OS and architecture values are canonicalized across the Electron launcher and loader.py, keeping telemetry slices consistent across entrypoints.
  • Community link — README and release help links now point to the active TI-Toolbox Discord server.
  • Release-gate tests — added Dockerfile.test-based integration checks plus a self-contained comprehensive release-gate entry point using only test-environment fixtures.
