Latest release v2.0.117

Fixes a data-loss race in pup_quit_idle_browsers that could close a browser holding live windows. It judged idle purely by adopted in-memory sessions, so right after a bridge restart, before re-adoption runs, a warm browser still holding real windows looked session-less and got closed, taking every window with it. It now inspects the browsers ACTUAL open pages before closing and skips any browser that still holds a non-blank page, or that cannot be inspected, so a browser mid-re-adoption or user-held is never reaped

v1.9.78 2026-07-24

Survive renderer crashes (issue #16): detect a crashed tab renderer (page error + Inspector.targetCrashed), fast-fail its verbs with a reload-to-recover hint instead of hanging the window, clear the flag when reload/navigate respawns it, and reap orphaned/crashed renderers scoped to the session profile on close

v1.9.77 2026-07-24

Never block browser_open_window on a Chrome-for-Testing download when a system browser is available (issue #15): a machine with working Edge and Chrome could not open a window because the gate ignored system candidates, contradicting the documented last-resort behaviour

v1.9.76 2026-07-24

Power fix: Chrome power-saving flags are now OPT-IN via highFps instead of applied to every window forever (issue #14 battery drain). A highFps window holds a lease (default 20 min, max 120), an active recording holds it open indefinitely so a take is never cut off, and on lapse the window is DOWNGRADED by relaunch carrying its tabs rather than closed. Adds browser_highfps_extend, plus hints on every open so an AI discovers the capability

v1.9.75 2026-07-23

Self-heal a half-populated Chrome-for-Testing cache dir: delete the versioned folder when it exists without its executable, so a partial or interrupted download stops failing every later install attempt

v1.9.73 2026-07-22

Keep the log janitor (dedupe plus quieter drag and overlay lines) and record why the bridge owns log VOLUME while AD owns the file and its rotation

v1.9.72 2026-07-22

Log the missing-favicon case once per session instead of on every tab-badge update

v1.9.71 2026-07-22

Log janitor: collapse consecutive identical lines into one plus a repeat count, and stop the drag check emitting one line per tab when nothing moved

v1.9.70 2026-07-22

Park windows on RECOVERY and on RECLAIM (background-by-default was only enforced on the launch path, so after a reboot every recovered window sat in the foreground), and log every incoming verb for auditability

v1.9.69 2026-07-21

Let AD desktop_bring_to_front perform the raise after PowerShell clears WS_EX_NOACTIVATE, since SetForegroundWindow is silently ignored under the Windows foreground lock

v1.9.68 2026-07-21

Use PowerShell only to clear WS_EX_NOACTIVATE and un-minimize, then have AD desktop_bring_to_front perform the real raise, because SetForegroundWindow is silently ignored under the Windows foreground lock

v1.9.67 2026-07-21

Raise a pup window by resolving its hwnd from the session title and clearing WS_EX_NOACTIVATE before SetForegroundWindow, so a backgrounded Edge window actually surfaces (the PID path was skipped on every detached launch and only ever matched chrome.exe)

v1.9.66 2026-07-21

Raise a pup window by resolving its hwnd and calling desktop_bring_to_front, instead of relying on CDP setWindowBounds plus bringToFront which never raises an Edge window from the bottom of the z-order

v1.9.65 2026-07-21

Bake the deep-link into the minted magic URL by appending next= client-side (the endpoint ignores next, the CLI appends it), so an in-place view toggle lands back on the same wiki page instead of the root

v1.9.64 2026-07-21

In-place wiki view toggle: mint a single-use magic link from an already-logged-in page (browser-session endpoint works with just the session cookie, so the desktop needs no token) and navigate the window, instead of closing and relaunching it under another profile

v1.9.63 2026-07-21

Wiki view toggle now switches IN PLACE using Colby's browser-session magic link (a logged-in page mints its own single-use link, so the desktop needs no token) instead of closing and relaunching the window under another profile

v1.9.62 2026-07-21

Claim the jump-list dedupe key before the await so two concurrent callers cannot both commit (a redundant CommitList rebuilds the menu and dismisses one the user is opening)

v1.9.61 2026-07-21

Brand the jump-list header BEFORE stamping the new appId (Win11 bakes button art at creation, so branding after had no visible effect), and dedupe jump-list commits on appId+view so a CommitList cannot dismiss a menu the user is opening

v1.9.60 2026-07-21

Brand the jump-list header row: pass hwnd plus headerIcon to desktop_set_window_jumplist (AD 1.9.153). hwnd is required, titleContains silently no-ops. Log headerBranded and iconCheck so it is verifiable in code

v1.9.59 2026-07-21

Set the thumbnail tooltip from updateTabCountBadge so the normal open path gets one (it was only wired into refreshWindowChrome and the category-change hook, so freshly opened windows had no tooltip)
