L22: DownloadOptionsForm accepts optional `kind` prop. When set, hides
audio-specific fields (Audio format) for video downloads and vice versa
(Video container, Preferred codec) for audio downloads. Settings passes
defaultKind so the defaults card shows only relevant options.
L24: Replace lone window.open('htmlUrl', '_blank') with a new openUrl IPC
channel (shell:open-url) that calls shell.openExternal after validating
the protocol is http/https. Consistent with how all other external opens
work in the app. Preload + main handler + mock updated.
L27: DownloadBar URL-field Enter is now smart -- if formats/playlist are
already loaded (or probe errored), Enter triggers download; otherwise
it probes. Eliminates the keyboard dead-end where Enter never downloads.
typecheck + 242 tests + eslint green.

L54: DownloadBar preview image now tracks failed src in state (same pattern as
MediaThumb); on load error shows the kind icon fallback instead of broken img.
L61: Convert taskbarProgress from ipcMain.on/ipcRenderer.send to ipcMain.handle/
ipcRenderer.invoke so all IPC channels use the same request-response idiom.
App.tsx calls void to explicitly discard the resolved promise.
L63: audioQuality() now has an explicit 'Best' case alongside the bitrate strings;
unknown labels still fall back to '0' but the default branch is documented.
typecheck + 242 tests + eslint + prettier green.

- Taskbar progress bar: renderer pushes summarizeQueue aggregate over a new
taskbar:progress channel (App store subscription); setProgressBar normal/error
- System tray (src/main/tray.ts) + minimize-to-tray (Settings.minimizeToTray);
close hides to tray, isQuitting guards real exits; icon via getAppIconPath()
(build/icon.ico added to extraResources)
- Jump list: app.setUserTasks "Open AeroFetch" (thumbnail toolbar deferred)
- Settings search: filters the ~11 SettingsView cards live by text match
Overlay badge deferred (needs a drawn NativeImage). typecheck + test (192) +
build all clean. Roadmap: Phase O COMPLETE.

yt-dlp is now a managed, auto-updating binary rather than a static bundled
one. On launch AeroFetch seeds a writable copy under userData from the
bundled seed, self-heals it if it goes missing, and — throttled to once a
day — self-updates it to the configured channel (default: nightly). This
keeps the binary current so YouTube changes don't silently cause 403s, and
an app reinstall (or portable re-extraction) can no longer roll it back.
Settings shows an auto-update toggle, the live version, last-checked time,
and the channel selector.
Also surface the bundled ffmpeg/ffprobe versions in Settings (display only:
they have no self-update path and, unlike yt-dlp, don't break as sites
change, so there is no auto-update for them).
- binaries: split the read-only bundled seed from the managed userData copy
- ytdlp: ensureManagedYtdlp (seed + self-heal), startup auto-update runner
- ytdlpPolicy: pure once-a-day throttle decision (unit-tested)
- ffmpeg: parse ffmpeg/ffprobe -version for the Settings panel
- settings/ipc/preload/renderer: new settings, IPC channels, types, and UI

A new Settings → "Software update" card lets users update AeroFetch from inside
the app:
- src/main/updater.ts — queries the configured Gitea repo's latest release over
the public REST API, compares the tag to app.getVersion(), and (on request)
streams the installer asset to the OS temp dir with progress events, then
launches it and quits so it can replace the app.
- Security: only the trusted update host over HTTPS is ever downloaded from, and
only a freshly-downloaded .exe inside our temp dir is ever executed — the
download URL from the release JSON can't redirect us elsewhere. No token is
ever shipped; the source repo must be anonymously readable (public).
- IPC: app:update-check / -download / -run + an -progress push channel, exposed
via preload (checkForAppUpdate / downloadAppUpdate / runAppUpdate /
onAppUpdateProgress).
- UI: "Check for updates" → shows the new version and its release notes, then
"Update now" (with a download progress bar) or "View release". Up-to-date and
error states handled. Preview mock added so the flow is exercisable in `npm run ui`.
Note: the update source repo/host are constants at the top of updater.ts
(currently debont80/AeroFetch). Downloads work once the release repo is public
and the Gitea instance allows anonymous API + asset access.

- Expose the AeroFetch version over IPC (app:version → app.getVersion); the
sidebar brand now shows "v<version>" beneath the name.
- Sidebar can collapse to a 60px icon-only rail via a toggle button; nav items
and the theme control fall back to icon + tooltip when collapsed. The state is
persisted in localStorage so it survives restarts. Hint gains left/right
placements for the collapsed-rail tooltips.
- Replace the binary dark-mode Switch with an explicit 3-way Light / Dark / Auto
segmented control (Auto follows the OS). Collapsed, it becomes a single button
that cycles the three modes.
- Bump version to 0.3.2.
Verified in the browser UI preview: version label, collapse/expand, dark mode,
and the theme switch all render correctly with no console errors.

Index an entire YouTube channel or playlist once, then download it into
organized <Channel>/<Playlist>/<NNN> - <Title> folders, with incremental
re-sync. Built in six rebuild-gated phases (F-K); see ROADMAP-PINCHFLAT.md.
- F: channel-walk indexer (/playlists + /videos) -> persisted Source +
MediaItem JSON stores; pure classify/dedup logic in indexerCore.ts
- G: Windows-safe folder paths + dir sanitizer (collectionOutputTemplate)
- H: Library tab + source tree + "Download pending" into the existing queue
- I: state-preserving re-index merge + persist-downloaded-on-complete
- J: watched sources, RSS fast-check, Task Scheduler + --sync launch
(the OS-level scheduling/RSS need a real-install smoke test)
- K: .info.json / thumbnail / .description sidecars for media servers
Also gitignore .gitea-token. 106 unit tests pass; typecheck + build clean.

Adds theme presets (Toffee/Slate/Evergreen/Lavender) with a "follow system"
mode and high-contrast awareness, a first-run welcome screen, and the
Windows analog of Android's share sheet for a Win32 app: an aerofetch://
protocol handler plus an Explorer "Send to AeroFetch" entry, both routed
through a single-instance lock so a second launch hands its link to the
already-running window instead of opening a duplicate.

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.

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.

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.
