## Hellion Chat 1.5.0 — DI Foundation and Service Refactor (2026-05-17)
Major architecture cycle. The plugin bootstrap moves to a generic-host DI container
(`Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting` + `IServiceCollection`) modelled on Lightless Sync. Service
logging migrates from a static `Plugin.LogProxy` locator to typed
`Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.ILogger<T>` via constructor injection, bridged over Dalamud's
`IPluginLog` by a custom `DalamudLogger` trio.
### Under the hood
- 18 instance-class services migrate to `ILogger<T>` via constructor injection across four
slices: data layer (`MessageStore`, `MessageManager`, `AutoTellTabsService`), IPC and
integrations (`HonorificService`, `IpcManager`, `TypingIpc`, `ExtraChat`, three
`GameFunctions` classes), UI window layer (`ChatLogWindow`, `DbViewer`, `Popout`, three
settings tabs), and root (`Commands`, `ThemeRegistry`, `PayloadHandler`).
- `Plugin.LogProxy` stays in place for the eight buckets ctor injection cannot reach:
static helpers (`EmoteCache`, `AutoTranslate`, `MemoryUtil`, `WrapperUtil`),
Dalamud-reflected types (`Configuration`), the `Message` data class, and instance classes
that only log from static methods (`FontManager`, one `GameFunctions` site).
- Plugin.cs finishes at 1012 lines — virtually identical to the pre-cycle 1013. The new
Phase-1 host build and `Plugin.X` bridge wiring trade out exactly the service and window
allocations that previously lived in `LoadAsync`.
- Cross-plugin baseline confirms no performance penalty against Chat 2: HellionChat
first-frame HITCH 77 ms median, Chat 2 74 ms median. Lightless and XIVInstantMessenger sit
around 7 ms by deferring their font-atlas build past `Finished loading` — that pattern is
the v1.5.1 follow-up item.
### User-visible
- Slash-command insert fix: pasting a slash command into the chat input (Friend List
"/tell" action, plugin-driven inserts from Artisan, AllaganTools etc.) now replaces the
existing input instead of concatenating onto whatever the user was typing. Cherry-picked
from ChatTwo upstream `ee7768ac` with namespace adaptation.
Migration v17 stays (no schema bump).
Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).

## Next Cycle (v1.5.0)
## Next Cycle (v1.5.1)
**DI-container adoption.** Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting plus `ILogger<T>` modelled on Lightless's `PluginHostFactory`
pattern. The v1.4.x Polish-Sweep series is closed; v1.5.0 starts the structural cycle that the smaller F12.x indirection
shims (`IPluginLogProxy`, `IPlatformUtil`) were paving the way for. After that, the Wine/Linux scroll-rubber-band spike
deferred from v1.4.10 (Reserve-A cancelled — Windows users never saw it) plus the First-Run-Wizard rework that lets users
opt into the curated defaults instead of just picking a privacy profile.
**Honorific Full Gradient Port plus FontAtlas-Defer for a 10× HITCH cut.** v1.5.0 closed the DI-container cycle with
no performance penalty against Chat 2 (77 ms vs 74 ms median first-frame HITCH), but the cross-plugin baseline against
Lightless Sync and XIVInstantMessenger surfaced a clean optimisation: both plugins defer their font-atlas build until
after `Finished loading` and sit at 6-7 ms HITCH, an order of magnitude below the ~75 ms floor that Chat 2 and HellionChat
share. v1.5.1 ports that pattern. Plus the Honorific gradient render path — DTO is gradient-ready since v1.4.7, only the
Wave / Pulse animation port remains. After that, First-Run-Wizard rework with curated defaults beyond the three privacy
profiles, then FR localisation (Hezcal native-speaker review confirmed), then the Plugin Integrations Wave 2-6
(Context-Menu, NotificationMaster, Moodles, ExtraChat, XIVIM Quick-DM). Wine/Linux scroll-rubber-band spike sits as a
low-priority Linux-only investigation at the tail.
