Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Mintplex-Labs/anything-llm/issues/4315

How are you running AnythingLLM?

AnythingLLM desktop app

What happened?

It's not fully a bug in that sense, rather a security, distribution and maintainability issue.

Beside having assumely updated security, performance and features, this would ease building the app from AUR on arch-linux distros that usaully provide the latest 2-3 electron versions from their repos (instead of downloading and compilling ca 50GB of chromium).

Are there known steps to reproduce?

No response

@timothycarambat commented on GitHub (Aug 20, 2025):

No, going to categorize as a bug per-se, but yeah, we have been looking to bump to electron 37 for a ton of reasons:

  • security
  • node version
  • worker threads
  • system audio capture
  • and other QOL improvements.

Like any migration, it takes a ton of time and effort and we need to ensure we do not break core libraries which may not be ready for Node 22 and may require additional patching as well!
