Phase C had been implemented in the working tree but never committed:
named custom-command templates (CRUD + per-download override), command
preview, and the in-app yt-dlp self-updater.
Phase D adds: history search/kind-filter/multi-select/bulk-delete/
re-download; native OS notifications on completion/failure; a private/
incognito download mode that skips history; settings+template backup/
restore via JSON; and a persistent error log surfaced as a Diagnostics
report in Settings.
See ROADMAP.md for the full per-item breakdown.

Implements the remaining Phase B (Access & networking) items from
ROADMAP.md: cookie sources (browser cookie-store import, or a built-in
sign-in window that exports a Netscape cookie file via a persisted Electron
session partition), the aria2c external downloader, proxy/rate-limit,
restrict-filenames, and a download-archive to skip repeats.
Wires download.ts to the buildArgs() module added in the previous commit
(it wasn't hooked up yet) and renames its options param
NetworkOptions -> AccessOptions to reflect the wider scope now that cookies
and filename/archive flags joined proxy/rate-limit/aria2c.

Extracts yt-dlp argv construction out of download.ts into its own
electron-free module (src/main/buildArgs.ts) so it can be exercised by
vitest without spinning up Electron, plus a real-download integration
test (skipped by default; opt in with AEROFETCH_REAL_DOWNLOAD=1) that
spawns the bundled yt-dlp.exe/ffmpeg.exe against its argv. download.ts
isn't wired up to it yet — that lands with the next commit.
This was done in an earlier local session but never actually committed,
even though download.ts has imported from it since the Phase A commit
(bb5dd6c) — the build had been relying on an uncommitted local file.

Phase A of the Seal feature-parity roadmap: configurable post-processing via a
shared DownloadOptions model (src/shared/ipc.ts), editable as persisted defaults
in Settings and overridable per-download in the download bar.
- audio formats (mp3/m4a/opus/flac/wav/aac), video container (mp4/mkv/webm),
preferred-codec sort (-S vcodec)
- subtitles (download/embed/langs/auto), SponsorBlock (remove/mark + categories
+ force-keyframes-at-cuts), embed chapters/metadata/thumbnail, square-crop
audio artwork
- playlist downloads: probe via `-J --flat-playlist`, inline selection UI
(checkbox list, select-all/none, live count); each entry enqueued as its own
single-video download, reusing the existing queue/concurrency/history
- reusable DownloadOptionsForm shared by Settings and the download bar so the
defaults and per-download override never drift
- ROADMAP.md tracking full Seal parity (phases A-E)
Also includes in-tree security hardening that landed alongside: preload sandbox
(CJS preload output), http(s)-only window-open + blocked renderer navigation,
argv-injection guard for URLs (src/main/url.ts), extension-allowlisted file
open/reveal (src/main/reveal.ts), yt-dlp version-check timeout, and a minimal
window.electron presence marker.

Stop ignoring resources/bin/*.exe and commit the binaries so clones are
self-contained (no manual binary drop needed).

Electron + React (Fluent UI) desktop frontend for yt-dlp:
- Download queue with live progress, concurrency cap, cancel/retry
- Format/quality picker via yt-dlp probe; audio extraction to MP3
- Settings + history persistence (electron-store / JSON)
- Clipboard link auto-detect; persisted light/dark theme
- NSIS + portable packaging (binaries bundled at build time, not in git)
UI: "Studio" sidebar layout with a toffee-brown theme (light + neutral dark).
Dropdowns use a native <select> and tooltips a CSS-only Hint, to avoid a
dev-machine GPU overlay flicker/blank issue.
