* refactor(engine): 语音独立工具改用原生托盘菜单，移除 WebView2 托盘菜单改用 Win32 弹出菜单，设置项改为用关联编辑器打开 config.toml，关于页改为消息框。删除 window_webview2 与两份 HTML 资源，windows-app 特性不再依赖 webview2 端口。 * refactor(server): 移除 WebView2，候选窗、工具栏、托盘菜单与设置窗口只保留 Direct2D 删除 src/webview2 与 webview_utils，小窗口的置顶、皮肤重载和工具栏状态缓存移到 window/small_windows，presenter 成为唯一路径，D2D 下的置顶时序与 cloak 行为保持不变。设置进程去掉 WebView2 宿主、鼠标转发与启动图，只构建原生窗口；旧快捷方式传入的 --d2d / --webview2 被忽略。删除 appearance.ui_backend 与 appearance.settings_ui_backend（读取、写入、设置页下拉框与两份配置模板），升级时由模板合并丢弃旧值。设置窗口的图片资源移到 server/assets/settings，安装到数据目录的 assets\settings。不再链接 WebView2Loader，vcpkg 去掉 webview2 端口。 * build(installer): 打包与 CI 不再处理 WebView2 页面和运行时 Prepare-PackageFiles 去掉 -UiHtmlDirectory 与 html 暂存，改为暂存 server/assets/settings；安装器不再检查 WebView2 Runtime、不再创建 ProgramData 下的 WebView2 用户数据目录，升级和卸载时清理旧版留下的 webview2 / webview2-settings 与数据目录里的 html。CI 删除设置页构建、契约同步检查和候选窗 DOM 测试，release 的打包任务不再依赖网页产物；dependabot 去掉 npm。第三方声明去掉 WebView2Loader。 * refactor(ui-html): 删除 WebView2 页面与设置页前端工程 候选窗、工具栏、托盘菜单、设置页、主题和契约副本都已没有使用者；设置窗口用到的图片资源已移到 server/assets/settings。sync-contracts.py 与 pnpm/Vite/TypeScript 工程一并删除，契约仍以 engine/contracts/webview 为唯一来源。 * docs(server): 文档改为只描述 Direct2D 界面 仓库地图去掉 ui-html，组件边界、uiAccess 与置顶时序、设置窗口和配置读写的说明改写为 Direct2D 唯一界面；安装说明去掉 WebView2 Runtime 检查，打包命令去掉 -UiHtmlDirectory；engine/contracts/webview 的说明改为设置窗口是唯一使用者，名字是历史遗留。 * docs(skins): 皮肤说明不再区分 WebView2 与 D2D 渲染器 v2 字段去掉「仅 WebView2」，改为说明由 Direct2D 原生渲染、部分字段仍在补全；颜色必须带 # 改为清单格式约定。随包的 skins/niya-demo/skin.toml 不改，免得用户机器上的同名皮肤在升级时被当成已修改而改名备份。 * docs(ui): demo 说明文字不再提 WebView2
Metasequoia IME for Windows
中文 README · Website · Docs · Privacy · Code signing policy
A free and open-source Chinese and Japanese input method for Windows 10 and 11, built on TSF with no legacy IMM32 path.
This repository is the whole Windows product: the TSF text service DLL, the resident server, the conversion engine, a self-written native GUI framework, the HTML surfaces and the installer. The engine was imported from MSIME-Engine and specialized for Windows; it now lives in engine/ as a first-party component, so a plain clone builds the product. See engine/UPSTREAM.md.
This is a public beta. Expect rough edges and read the release notes before upgrading.
Install
Download the installer from Releases or the download page, run it, then switch with Win + Space.
Current builds are not code signed. SmartScreen will block them and uiAccess is unavailable, which means the candidate window cannot float above elevated applications. Verify the download with the SHA256 published on the download page.
You need the Microsoft Visual C++ 2015–2022 Redistributable (x64). The server and settings app are 64-bit; the x86 redistributable is a separate package and does not substitute for it. If you cannot switch to the IME, the server keeps exiting, or the settings window closes immediately, install that first.
What it does
- Chinese input: full pinyin, double pinyin (Xiaohe / Ziranma / Shoudao / Microsoft / Sogou / Ziguang / Zhineng ABC / Guobiao / Pinyin Jiajia), Wubi 86
- Japanese input: romaji, with hiragana, katakana and dictionary candidates; also available as a temporary mode from Chinese
- Helpcode (形码) filtering on pinyin schemes: six tables, single- and double-code
- Optional cloud candidates, and AI suggestions via DeepSeek / OpenAI / SiliconFlow / Groq
- English-Chinese glosses in the vertical candidate window
- Mixed Chinese-English input, emoji and kaomoji, a dedicated English candidate mode
- Local input statistics (off by default): character counts and active time stay on this machine; view and clean them under Settings → Statistics
- Voice input with streaming recognition and optional cleanup
- Handwriting, on-screen keyboard, floating toolbar, clipboard history
- User dictionary management, candidate frequency tuning, skins with light and dark variants
Privacy
An input method sees every keystroke, so the boundaries are stated explicitly in PRIVACY.md: which features reach the network, what each one sends, what the defaults are, and how to turn each off.
Two things worth knowing up front. Cloud candidates are on by default — the composition spelling goes to Google's input-tools service, and it is the only network feature that works without you supplying a credential. API tokens are stored in plain text in config.toml, unlike macOS and Linux which use the Keychain and Secret Service.
There is no telemetry, analytics or crash reporting of any kind.
Building and contributing
CONTRIBUTING.md has the environment, the build order and what to run before opening a pull request. Contributions do not have to be code — dictionary entries, documentation, icons and compatibility testing all count, and the recruiting page lists them by area.
Note that most issues, documentation and code comments are in Chinese. English pull requests and issues are welcome.
