General code-quality and robustness pass across the plugin: thread-
safety on IPC state, resource-disposal cleanups, input validation,
defensive null-checks and a few small UX glitches. Compliance docs
(THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES, PRIVACY, COPYRIGHT) refreshed to v1.0.3.
Highlights
- ExtraChat IPC state synchronised across threads
- ChatLogWindow autocomplete no longer leaks the unmanaged
ImGuiListClipper allocation
- ChatLogWindow + Popout style stack stays balanced when config
toggles mid-frame
- Retention sweep and privacy cleanup wait for the actual filter
pass instead of the fire-and-forget Task that started it
- Configuration.LatestVersion bumped to 13 to match the active
migration path
- GameFunctions placeholder buffer guarded against oversized
replacement names
- TellTarget.IsSet, ResolveTempInputChannel, InputPreview, IconUtil,
Lender, Payloads, ExtraPayload all hardened against null / empty /
EOF / cycle inputs
- FontManager Lodestone download stays in scope for a follow-up
(timeout + lazy init pending)
- AutoTranslate replaced the msvcrt.dll memcmp P/Invoke with a
managed Span comparison
- Privacy cleanup worker thread marked IsBackground = true
- Database cleanup now removes both legacy files in one click
- Tell-target name redacted in the verbose debug log
Compliance
- THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES: last-reviewed bumped to v1.0.3, Pidgin 3.5.1,
SQLitePCLRaw.lib.e_sqlite3 3.50.3 listed as direct dependency with
CVE-2025-6965 / CVE-2025-7709 rationale
- PRIVACY: last-reviewed bumped to v1.0.3, BetterTTV trigger wording
clarified (list fetch at startup vs. on-demand image fetch)
- COPYRIGHT: upstream attribution range widened
Build: 0 warnings, 0 errors. No behavioural changes that would alter
existing user configuration or stored chat history.
v1.0.2 tag was claimed before the DownloadLink fix shipped, so the
content moves to v1.0.3. No code changes — manifest, repo.json,
CHANGELOG and README version refs roll forward; DownloadLink* URLs
now point to v1.0.3/latest.zip.
Four small backlog items bundled:
- New: hide chat (and every other plugin window) while the New Game+
menu is open. Settings -> Window -> Frame, default off. Skips the
whole WindowSystem.Draw() pass while QuestRedo is visible, mirroring
the existing HideInLoadingScreens pattern.
- New: tint the channel selector button in the active channel colour.
Settings -> Appearance -> Colours, default on. Reuses the existing
inputColour computation (incl. ExtraChat override) and adds an
ImGuiCol.Button push around the selector. New ColourUtil helper
AdjustBrightness derives hover/active variants.
- Fix: PayloadHandler.InlineIcon hardcoded all hover icons to 32x32.
Replaced with float-based aspect-ratio-preserving shrink, single
scale-factor, zero-size guard, named MaxInlineIconSize constant.
Affects six call sites (status, item, achievement and other inline
hover paths).
- Diagnostic: HideState transitions log on Verbose level for both
ChatLogWindow and Popout.
Manifest bumped to 1.0.2 across csproj, yaml, repo.json. CHANGELOG
entry added, README version line updated. yaml + repo.json changelog
trimmed to the slim 4-version window (1.0.2, 1.0.1, 1.0.0, 0.6.1).
Bumps version to 1.0.1.0 and aligns the user-facing changelog across
HellionChat.csproj, HellionChat.yaml, repo.json and docs/CHANGELOG.md.
Headline fix: off-screen window recovery (one-shot bounds check on
plugin load + manual reset button under Settings -> Window -> Frame).
Bundled housekeeping since v1.0.0: docs restructured into docs/, stale
ChatTwo/* paths cleaned up across configs, Pidgin 3.3.0 -> 3.5.1,
actions/setup-dotnet 4 -> 5, github/codeql-action 3 -> 4.
DLL build verified locally; release.yml workflow generates the release
body from HellionChat.yaml on tag push.
- Move AI_DISCLOSURE, THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES, UPSTREAM_SYNC, ipc.md
into docs/ (ipc.md renamed to IPC.md for consistency)
- Add docs/ROADMAP.md, docs/CHANGELOG.md, docs/CONTRIBUTORS.md,
docs/LEARNING-JOURNEY.md
- Update README to reflect the v1.0.0 standalone state, drop the
development section, refresh the architecture tree, add a
release-cadence block linking to LEARNING-JOURNEY
- Fix stale ChatTwo/* source paths to HellionChat/* across docs
- Update cross-links in PRIVACY, CONTRIBUTING and .github/* so they
point at the new docs/ paths
Pure documentation pass, no code changes.
